Product overview
Dell lists WHR9N as a S55 44xGbE+4xSFP+ managed Switch. Licensed features and the software train a switch shipped with decide what it can actually do once it is racked. Tell us the feature set you are relying on and we will confirm it before you commit.
We return an itemised quote within 48 business hours, and we say plainly when a part is constrained rather than quoting a date we cannot hold.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against WHR9N specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Quoted with the optics and rails
The switch, the transceivers at both ends and the mounting hardware go on one bill of materials, so nothing blocks the install.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is WHR9N genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the Dell warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will WHR9N work in my server?
Tell us what it is aggregating and what optics you already hold. We confirm the port mix, the uplink capacity and the airflow variant, and we will list the optics and rail kit you will also need.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
