10GbE Network Switches
Every 10Gb switch on this page is a managed, rack-mount enterprise model with 10 Gigabit Ethernet access ports, either SFP+ for optics and direct-attach cables or 10GBASE-T for copper, built for top-of-rack and aggregation roles. The range includes the Cisco Nexus 9372PX and 9372TX, Juniper QFX5100-48S, EX4550 and EX4600, Arista 7050S-52, Dell S4048-ON and S4148 models, and Cisco Nexus 2348UPQ fabric extenders. Every switch is tested in-house and includes a 2-year warranty.

SFP+ or 10GBASE-T, and the 40G uplinks
Choose the port type first: SFP+ ports take 10G optics or direct-attach cables, and 10GBASE-T ports use RJ-45 copper. The Nexus 9372PX and 9372TX and the Juniper QFX5100-48S each add six 40G QSFP+ uplinks, and Juniper notes that the 40GbE ports on QFX5100 switches can also run as four 10GbE ports through QSFP+-to-SFP+ splitter cables or optics. Port layouts from each maker's data sheet:
| Model | 10G access ports | Uplinks |
|---|---|---|
| Cisco Nexus 9372PX | 48 x 1/10G SFP+ | 6 x 40G QSFP+ |
| Cisco Nexus 9372TX | 48 x 100M/1/10GBASE-T | 6 x 40G QSFP+ |
| Juniper QFX5100-48S | 48 x SFP/SFP+ | 6 x 40G QSFP+ |
| Arista 7050S-52 | 52 x 1/10G SFP+ | None; all 52 ports are SFP+ |
| Cisco Nexus 2348UPQ fabric extender | 48 x 1/10G SFP+ unified ports | Up to 6 x 10/40G QSFP+ to the parent switch |
A fabric extender needs a parent switch
The Nexus 2348UPQ is not a standalone switch. Cisco manages the Nexus 2300 platform through a parent Nexus switch and treats it as a remote line card, with the Nexus 5500 and 9300 among the supported parents, so it pairs with the Nexus 5548UP and 9372PX on this page.
See the Cisco Nexus 9000, Juniper, Dell Networking and Arista and other networking ranges, compare 24-port and 48-port managed switches, or return to all enterprise network switches. For the ports and uplinks, browse 40G QSFP+ transceivers, 10GBASE-SR SFP+ optics and direct-attach cables.
