Cisco Nexus 2248PQ 10GE Fabric Extender - Expansion module - 10 GigE, FCoE - remanufactured
- Reduce TCO
- Simplify operation
- Increase business agility and resilience
The Cisco Nexus 2248PQ provides 48 1 or 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Fiber Channel Over Ethernet (FCoE) Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) server ports, and four QSFP+ (16 10 GE SFP+) uplink ports in a compact one-rack-unit (1 RU) form factor.
The combination of the Cisco Nexus 2248PQ and upstream Cisco Nexus 5000 series switches and Cisco Nexus 6000 series switches provides a cost-effective access layer and scalable strategy for 10 GE and FCoE at the server access layer. It also helps to enable a smooth migration to a 40 GE network fabric.
-
Reduce TCO
The Fabric Extender approach reduces data center cabling costs and footprint with optimized inter-rack cabling. Converged fabric and FCoE at the server access layer reduce capital expenditure and operating expenses.
-
Increase business agility and resilience
Virtual Port Channel (vPC) and in-service software upgrades (ISSU) increase resilience. Virtual machine - aware network services facilitate quick expansion of network capacity.
