Similar in design and functionality to the LENOVO 49Y4270, the LENOVO 49Y4798 Flex System Fabric EN4093 10Gb Scalable Switch serves as a cornerstone in Lenovo's Flex System for data centers requiring high-speed networking capabilities. This powerful switch enhances connectivity within enterprise IT infrastructures, providing a robust 10GbE networking solution. With 14 internal ports dedicated to server connectivity within the Flex System chassis and 10 external ports for uplink and cross-data center connections, the EN4093 scalable switch ensures comprehensive coverage and high-performance networking. Its support for advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, including VLAN segmentation, spanning tree protocols, and QoS, allows for efficient traffic management, ensuring prioritization of critical applications and services. The Virtual Fabric technology supported by the switch enhances network flexibility, allowing administrators to create multiple virtual interfaces on a single physical port, thereby optimizing network resources and improving overall efficiency. Designed for energy-conscious environments, the switch incorporates features to reduce power consumption, aligning with green IT initiatives. The EN4093 provides multiple management interfaces, including web-based, SNMP, and CLI options, offering administrators versatility in configuring and monitoring the network. Scalability is a key feature of this switch, allowing for future network expansion without significant hardware overhaul, thereby protecting investment and providing a pathway for growth.
