EX500 network cabling
The network cabling diagrams apply to the EX500 appliance in a Dell EMC or customer-provided
rack.
Customers connect to an EX500 appliance by way of 25GbE ports on the front-end switches. For
an EX500 appliance, the 25GbE ports run at 25GbE. Customer configurations can include 25GbE
front-end switches provided by Dell EMC or customers may provide their own front-end switches.
To distinguish between the two front-end switches and the two back-end switches, each switch
has a nickname:
l
