Cisco Part Number: N9K-C93180YC-FX is a Cisco Nexus 9300 with 48p 1/10G/25G SFP and 6p 40G/100G QSFP28, MACsec, and Unified Ports capable
The Cisco Nexus 9300-FX Series is part of the fixed Cisco Nexus 9000 platform, utilizing Cisco Cloud Scale technology. Designed for cost-effective cloud-scale deployments, it supports increased endpoints and cloud services with wire-rate security and telemetry. Built on a modern system architecture, this platform ensures high performance, catering to the evolving needs of highly scalable data centers and growing enterprises.
The Cisco Nexus 9300-FX series switches offer diverse interface options, facilitating a seamless migration from 100-Mbps, 1-Gbps, and 10-Gbps speeds to 25-Gbps at the server, and from 10- and 40-Gbps speeds to 50- and 100-Gbps at the aggregation layer. With large buffers, flexible Layer 2 and Layer 3 scalability, and high performance, these switches provide investment protection, addressing the dynamic requirements of virtualized data centers and automated cloud environments.
The Cisco Nexus N9K-C93180YC-FX Switch: a 1RU switch boasting sub-1 microsecond latency, 3.6 Tbps bandwidth, and 1.2 bpps. With 48 downlink ports supporting 1-, 10-, or 25-Gbps Ethernet or 16-, 32-Gbps Fibre Channel options[1], it serves as a convergence point for primary storage, compute servers, and back-end storage at the top of the rack. The uplink accommodates six 40- and 100-Gbps ports or a mix of 1-, 10-, 25-, 40-, 50-, and 100-Gbps connections, allowing seamless migration. IEEE compliance, FC-FEC, RS-FEC for 25-Gbps, and wire-rate MACsec encryption on all ports ensure robust performance.
