Force10 S60 (Dell)

The Force10 S60 is a large-buffer 1RU switch using external DRAM for packet buffering. See the deep buffer concept page for context.

Field	Value
Ports	48 GigE + 4 SFP+
RX Queues	4Q
Total Buffer	1,250 MB
TX Buffer	"enough"

The 1.25 GB buffer is large enough to absorb extended bursts at a 10G→1G speed step without dropping packets.
