Connectivity and compatibility

This switch supports high-speed QSFP28 and QSFP+ ports that enable seamless integration into modern data center networks, especially those using leaf-spine architectures. Its VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.3 compliance ensure compatibility with a wide range of existing network designs, allowing for straightforward upgrades from 40G aggregates to 100G or consolidation of multiple lower-speed switches. The management interfaces provide flexible options for network administrators to maintain and configure the device efficiently.

Performance and reliability

With a switching fabric capable of 6.4 Tbps and a mean time between failures exceeding 230,000 hours, this switch is built to handle demanding workloads while maintaining high availability. The redundant power supplies and hot-swappable components allow for maintenance without interrupting network services, which is critical for enterprise and cloud environments where uptime is essential. The back to front airflow design supports effective cooling in typical data center rack setups, helping to sustain performance under continuous operation.

Ideal uses and environments

The Lenovo 7Z210O11WW is a strong choice for enterprises and cloud providers looking to build or upgrade leaf-spine network architectures. It fits well in data centers that require dense 100G connectivity for virtualization, big data, or high-performance computing tasks. Its robust design and management features also make it suitable for environments where network uptime and security are priorities, such as large-scale IT infrastructures and service provider networks.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in the same condition received, with tags, manuals, accessories, and original, unaltered packaging. Any item kept will be deducted from the refund. Start a return by sending us an email. Items sent back without approval may be refused or returned to the sender.

Some items are not returnable: opened TVs/combos/monitors 37″+, opened computers or software, electronic downloads, opened consumables (film, paper, bulbs, media, ink), custom or modified computers, special-order or “nonreturnable” items, submerged underwater gear, and opened educational media.

After inspection, refunds are issued to the original payment method; allow 5–7 business days for the credit to post. Shipping, handling, customs duties, and import taxes are nonrefundable. If an item is used, incomplete, or not in original condition, a 30% restocking fee may apply. Direct exchanges are not offered; purchase the replacement and return the original for a refund.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
