Options

• AMX5000s
• BMX5108n
• CMX5016s
• DMXG610s

• B

• C
  92% (33)
• D

Explanation

Option C is correct because the exhibit displays a Dell EMC PowerEdge MX5016s, a 16-port storage-focused fabric switch module for the MX modular chassis - identifiable by its 16 high-density ports and the "s" (storage) designation in the name.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (MX5000s): The MX5000s is a spine switch, not an individual switch module with visible front-facing ports like what the exhibit shows.
• B (MX5108n): The MX5108n is an 8-port network (Ethernet) switch - the "n" indicates network/Ethernet, and it has far fewer ports than the 16 shown.
• D (MXG610s): The MXG610s is a Fibre Channel switch; if the exhibit showed FC SFP transceivers or FC-specific indicators, this would be the answer instead.

Memory tip: Break down the model number - MX5016s: "16" tells you the port count, and "s" means storage. If you count 16 ports on an MX module switch in an exhibit, it's the MX16s. The "n" suffix (MX5108n) always means network/Ethernet, and "G" (MXG610s) signals Gigabit Fibre Channel.
