Abstract

Stackable 10GbE managed switches provide scalability and flexibility in a compact form factor. 10GbE ports provide high-bandwidth connections for server or stacking connections. High-availability (HA) features also play an important role.

D-Link Systems commissioned Tolly to evaluate its DXS-3400-24TC 10GbE switch and compare that to a NETGEAR M4300-24X. Both switches offer 24 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Performance tests measured L2 throughput, latency and MAC address collision avoidance.

The D-Link Systems switch matched the throughput and latency of the NETGEAR switch. Furthermore, the D-Link switch offers HA features such as dual-modular power supply units (PSU) and modular fans.
