Коммутаторы Cisco Nexus 2000 Series

The Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extenders (FEX) offer a simplified approach to data center access layer networking. Acting as remote line cards for a parent Cisco Nexus switch, these devices combine the flexibility of Top-of-Rack (ToR) deployment with the management simplicity of a single modular chassis.

The Nexus 2000 series supports a wide range of connectivity options, from 100/1000BASE-T to 10/40 Gigabit Ethernet. By offloading switching logic to the parent device (Nexus 5000 or 7000 series), it ensures consistent policy enforcement and reduces operational complexity. With a massive throughput capacity of up to 1.2 Tbps and support for Jumbo frames and IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, this series is built for resource-intensive enterprise environments. Its high-efficiency power design and hot-swappable fans make it a reliable and green choice for modern data center architectures.

Key Specifications:

• Interface Density: Up to 48 x 10GbE ports and 4 x 40GbE uplinks.

• System Throughput: Up to 1.2 Tbps aggregate bandwidth.

• Operating System: Fully integrated with Cisco NX-OS on parent switches.

• Form Factor: Compact 1RU rack-mount design.

• Efficiency: Low power consumption (typical 80W) and optimized cooling options.
