Common Mistakes When Choosing an Edge Switch

Choosing based on specs instead of workload
Fix: Start with your environment. If you're deploying at a small branch, focus on PoE budget and manageability over raw throughput.
Underbuilding when planning for Wi-Fi 6E or high-power IoT
Fix: If multi-gigabit APs or high-wattage PoE devices are on the roadmap, plan for the PoE budget and port speed now.
Consider: PowerSwitch E3248PXE-ON, PowerSwitch E3248P-ON
Not planning for future growth
Fix: Choose a model that allows for expansion without replacing your core switch.
Consider upgrading to: PowerSwitch E3248PXE-ON, PowerSwitch E3248P-ON

Dell edge platforms are a portfolio of networking infrastructure and software solutions designed to securely process and analyze data close to its source. They provide the foundation for running applications and workloads outside of a traditional data center, helping you innovate with confidence and drive business forward. Dell's edge networking portfolio includes a range of PowerSwitch edge switches designed for edge environments, offering flexible form factors and connectivity options.

Dell PowerSwitch E-Series enhances workforce productivity with bandwidth-intensive applications and increase automation at the network edge with PoE (Power over Ethernet) and Internet of Things devices.

The primary benefit is to modernize your network edge with switches that are ideal for powering wireless access points, VoIP phones, surveillance cameras, building automation, and IoT devices.

Our PowerSwitch E-Series extend your data center fabric to remote locations using the same reliable network operating system and familiar networking tools to monitor, manage, and deploy at the edge.

To determine compatibility, you should compare the specifications of the new and old models, focusing on port density, speed, power-over-ethernet (PoE) budget, and management features. Dell provides detailed datasheets and migration guides to help you identify the appropriate modern replacement. This ensures a smooth transition while upgrading to the latest networking technology.

Dell edge platforms incorporate a cyber-resilient architecture with features like secure boot, cryptographically signed firmware, data-at-rest encryption, AAA authorization, TACACS+ accounting and RADIUS support for comprehensive secure access support. These multi-layered security measures help secure your infrastructure and data against modern threats.

Dell's edge solutions are designed for scalability through modular hardware and flexible software platforms. Extend your data center fabric to remote locations using the same reliable network operating system and familiar networking tools to monitor, manage and deploy at the edge.

Common use cases include providing reliable connectivity in retail stores for point-of-sale and inventory systems, connecting IoT devices in manufacturing for real-time monitoring, and supporting remote office/branch office (ROBO) operations. Dell's edge platforms are ideal for any scenario that requires robust, secure, and easily managed network infrastructure outside the core data center.
