Intel® Blade Server Ethernet Switch Modules
SBCEGBESW1 and SBCEGBESW10
Overview
 
Intel® Blade Server Ethernet Switch Modules SBCEGBESW1 and SBCEGBESW10 Intel® Blade Server Ethernet Switch Modules directly integrate with the blade server chassis, dramatically improving manageability and cost of ownership, to meet the networking I/O requirements of small-to-medium and large data center customers.
 
 
 
 
Product information
 
 
Features and benefits
Ethernet switch modules integrate with blade chassis Reduces clutter, realizes space savings, and simplifies deployment and management
Easy-to-use, powerful, and flexible management user interface options Decreases resource requirements for network management operations by simplifying installation, configuration, and monitoring
10K jumbo frames support Increases performance in data-transfer-intensive environments such as IP storage networks
10Gb uplinks
(SBCEGBESW10 only)
Scales existing infrastructures to 10GbE networking today, at a dramatically lower price point than stand-alone 10GbE switches
 
 
Product specifications
Ports SBCEGBESW1: Six external 1000BASE-T ports for making 10/100/1000 Mbps connections to a backbone, end stations, and servers
 
SBCEGBESW10: Six external 1000BASE-T ports and two optional 10 Gbps connections for making connections to a backbone, end stations, and servers
 
Fourteen internal full-duplex gigabit ports to connect to blade servers
 
Two internal full-duplex 10/100 Mbps ports connected to the management module
Access Control Flow awareness based on L2/L3/L4 headers based on user, QoS, and application information
 
Dual lookups on the packets for deterministic classification
Performance Wire Speed Policy based switching
 
Line rate L2 switching support for Gb Ethernet or 10Gb Ethernet uplinks
 
Jumbo frame support (up to 10K) for server farm connectivity
 
Policy-based switching of any L2/L3/L4 field in the packet header—MAC SA/DA, VLAN, SIP/DIP, TCP/UDP or a combination on any port
 
Switching based on standard L2 bridging and switching
Quality of Service 8 Traffic classes per port
 
802.1p priority, DSCP/TOS marking, remarking capable
 
Advanced QoS capabilities including Three color Marking for min/max bandwidth guarantee
Management Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) protocol for creation of alternative backup paths and prevention of network loops
 
Simple network management protocol (SNMP) v1, v2, v3
 
Fully configurable either in-band or out-of-band control through SNMP
 
Flash memory for software upgrades. Firmware upgrades can be done through trivial file (TFTP) or hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) Web interface.
 
HTML-based user interface allows administration from any PC
