The S6000 system runs the Dell Networking operating system (FTOS), providing switching, bridging,
and routing functionality for transmitting data, storage, and server traffic.
In a data center network, the S6000 system provides converged network support and inter-operates with
Dell and third-party network devices. The switch supports
data center bridging (DCB) features and
optimizes
connectivity between servers using Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and internet small
computer system interface (iSCSI) links.
By providing increased 40GbE bandwidth for device interconnection in a shared network storage
environment (with the possibility of splitting 40GbE QSFP+ uplinks into four 10GbE SFP+ connections),
the S6000 system is perfectly positioned to help transition a data center with multiple speed requirements.

• One universal serial bus (USB-A) port
• One USB-B console port
