Product name structure
Hi,
I'm looking for 'product name structure' of Dell EMC Networking products.
There are product series like the below.
"Z"-series
"S"-series
"C"-series
"N"-series
"X"-series
"E"-series
Question>
I'd like know the meaning and fullname of "Z, S, C, N, X, E" to distinguish each product.
e.g. C2960 -> Catalyst
Question>
I'd like know the meaning of alphabet at the end of product name the below.
"FB" of S4248FB
"FBL" of S4248FBL
"FE" of S4148FE

I have not seen anything denoting that the letter of the series represents a specific name.
Here is a product guide that helps show the differences between the models.

This Wiki page has a decent breakdown as well.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_Networking
F: fiber, will have majority SFP+ interfaces
T: copper, will have majority Base-T interfaces
ON: open networking, supports installation of alternate network operating systems.
P: PoE
PX: PoE with some higher wattage interfaces
FB: with deep-buffering only
FBL: with deep-buffering and additional TCAM for expanded FIB and ACL tables and flows
U: offers some unified SFP+ interfaces
When looking at the product page, there is a breakdown of the different models and how they differ.

The spec sheets also offer info on the differences between models.
