0XK146 Dell / Cisco Catalyst 3020 16-Port 16 x backplane + 4 x combo Gigabit SFP + 4 x 10/100/1000 Blade Network Switch

Dell / Cisco Catalyst 3020 0XK146

Built for modular blade systems in the data center, the Dell / Cisco Catalyst 3020 (0XK146) is a 16-port Gigabit Ethernet blade switch from Dell, part of the Blade switch module. The product line is engineered for blade chassis I/O switching.

Its port layout is 16 x backplane, 4 x combo Gigabit SFP, 4 x 10/100/1000 Blade, giving you a clear, flexible mix of connections. Modular optical slots give you flexible fiber uplinks for longer distances and electrical isolation. Its mid-range port count is a good fit for departmental networks and small comms cabinets. Plan which ports will serve end devices and which will act as uplinks to keep cabling tidy and future changes simple. Regular firmware updates, where available, help keep the switch secure and stable. As a central connection point, it links users with applications, storage and online services. Keeping a record of what is connected to each port speeds up maintenance.

Part number 0XK146 identifies this exact hardware configuration for straightforward purchasing and asset tracking. Integrated blade switching shortens the path between servers and keeps rack cabling manageable. A UPS on the network rack keeps connections alive through short power outages. The 0XK146 creates a tidy, central hub for all wired devices in the area it serves. Fewer external cables mean faster provisioning and cleaner racks. Confirm it matches your blade enclosure and the I/O bay you plan to use. Add the Dell 0XK146 to your network for Dell Gigabit Ethernet blade switching you can depend on.
