The 28xx switch model is not capable or 10g speeds.  Here is an overview of the features.

The Dell PowerConnect 28xx series switches (2808, 2816, 2824 2848) are 10/100/1000BASE-T switches with 8, 16, 24, and 48 ports at full wire speed across all ports. The switches are not stackable and are designed for small and medium businesses in small scale deployments with limited management. They are designed to fit in a 1U form factor and further the efficiency and overall green features of the PowerConnect switch line.
