DCN optical switches — the L2/L3 fibre network

High density of SFP fibre ports, 10G SFP+ uplinks and layer-3 routing (BGP, OSPF, VxLAN). Ideal for link aggregation, connecting distant buildings and building the backbone of a campus and carrier network.

DCN optical switch with SFP ports

Why DCN optical switches

High SFP port density

Up to 48 fibre ports (100/1000Base-X) in one device — aggregate many optical links without expanding racks.

10G SFP+ uplinks

1000/10GBase-X (SFP+) ports provide fast aggregation to the network core and eliminate bottlenecks in the topology.

Long-distance reach

Fibre lets you connect buildings and distant network segments over kilometres — without the 100 m copper limit.

Layer-3 routing

L3 models support BGP, OSPF and VxLAN — full segmentation and routing in a campus and carrier network.

Optical switch models

Choose a switch with the right SFP port density and number of 10G uplinks. Filter by ports and layer to match a model to aggregation or the fibre network core.

FAQ — DCN optical switches

What are optical switches?

These are switches whose access ports are SFP/SFP+ fibre slots instead of copper RJ45. They let you build a fibre-based network — with greater reach, resistance to electromagnetic interference and higher throughput over long distances.

What is the difference between SFP and SFP+?

SFP is a slot for 1 Gb/s links (100/1000Base-X) and SFP+ for 10 Gb/s links (1000/10GBase-X). In DCN optical switches the SFP ports serve an access/aggregation role, while SFP+ act as fast uplinks to the core.

When should I choose an optical switch instead of a copper one?

When you connect distant buildings or segments (over 100 m), need resistance to EMC interference, build the network backbone or aggregate many fibre links from operators and business clients.

Do optical switches support L3 routing?

Yes — the S5750E and CS6200/CS6200X series operate at layer 3 (or L3 lite) and support static and dynamic routing (OSPF, BGP), VLAN and VxLAN. L2+ models are great for aggregation without the need for full routing.

Which SFP transceivers are compatible?

The switches work with standard SFP/SFP+ modules (single- and multi-mode) of various reaches. We'll help you choose transceivers and patch cords for your infrastructure — from short in-rack links to multi-kilometre connections.
