The Dell Networking N3048ET-ON is a 1U rack-mount Layer 3 switch offering 48x 10/100/1000 BASE-T ports, 2x SFP+ 10 GbE uplinks, 2x SFP 1 GbE ports, hardware stacking, and a single hot-swap AC power supply.
The N3048ET-ON supports two SFP+ slots for 10 GbE uplinks and two SFP slots for 1 GbE connectivity, enabling high-speed aggregation and fiber-optic links.
Yes. The N3048ET-ON provides static routing, RIP, OSPF v2/v3, and policy-based routing for flexible Layer 3 deployments.
The switch supports hardware stacking of up to 12 units via dedicated stacking ports, delivering up to 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth and unified management.
No. The N3048ET-ON does not support PoE/PoE+; it is optimized for high-density copper and fiber connectivity without power delivery over Ethernet.
Management options include a console port, RJ-45 Ethernet out-of-band port, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, RMON, Web GUI and SSH/CLI with Dell FTOS for advanced scripting.
The N3048ET-ON delivers 176 Gbps of switching capacity and a forwarding rate of up to 130 Mpps for wire-speed performance on all ports.
The N3048ET-ON runs Dell’s Force10 Operating System (FTOS), supporting modular features, Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF), and advanced QoS.
The switch includes a single 250 W AC, hot-swappable power supply module, ensuring reliable operation with optional redundancy via a second PSU slot.

The N3048ET-ON features Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) and variable speed fans to reduce power consumption in low-traffic conditions.
The switch measures 44.5 cm width, 27.5 cm depth and 4.4 cm height (1 RU) and weighs approximately 4.3 kg, ideal for standard 19 in. racks.
No. Uplink ports are fixed to two SFP+ 10 GbE and two SFP 1 GbE; RJ45 ports cannot be upgraded beyond 1 GbE.
The N3048ET-ON is optimized for enterprise edge, branch offices, and campus connectivity requiring high port density, L3 routing and stacking.
Connect stacking cables between units, enable stacking in FTOS CLI with ‘stack enable’, assign unique stack member IDs and verify via ‘show stack’.
Typical port-to-port latency is under 2 µs, ensuring low-latency switching for real-time applications and VoIP traffic.
