The Dell PowerEdge M I/O Aggregator (7N58N) is a high-performance networking module designed for the M1000e blade chassis. It provides 32 internal 10GbE connections to blade servers and offers flexible external connectivity through two integrated 40GbE QSFP+ ports and two FlexIO expansion bays. This setup allows for various configurations, including additional 10GbE or 40GbE ports, or 8Gb Fibre Channel modules for converged networking environments.
With a switch fabric capacity of 1.28 Tbps and forwarding capacity of 960 Mpps, the M I/O Aggregator ensures low-latency, high-throughput networking. It supports advanced features like Data Center Bridging (DCB), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and iSCSI optimization, making it suitable for modern data center applications. Management is streamlined through the Chassis Management Controller (CMC) GUI or CLI, and stacking capabilities allow for scalable network architectures.
