ports of 10GBase-T and four ports of 40Gbps with features and functions similar to the S4810 product. The S4820T switch runs the Dell Force10 Operating System (FTOS), providing switching, bridging, and routing functionality for transmitting data, storage, and server traffic. In a data center network - Dell Force10 S4820T | Getting Started Guide - Page 10
The S4820T solution is optimized to provide 10Gbps throughput for distances of up to: • 330 feet (100 meters) over Cat6, 6A, and 7 shielded copper cable and Cat6A UTP copper cable • 181.5 feet (55 meters) over Cat6 UTP copper cable 4 Introduction - Dell Force10 S4820T | Getting Started Guide - Page 11
