    Overview

    Cisco N9K-C9396TX Overview

    N9K-C9396TX is the Nexus 9300 with 48p 100M/1/10G-T and 8p 40G QSFP. The Cisco Nexus 9300 platform consists of fixed-port switches designed for top-of-rack (ToR) and middle-of-row (MoR) deployment in data centers that support enterprise applications, service provider hosting, and cloud computing environments. They are Layer 2 and 3 nonblocking 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet switches with up to 2.56 terabits per second (Tbps) of internal bandwidth.

    Feature

    Benefit

    Predictable high performance

    Latency of 1 to 2 microseconds with up to 1.28 Tbps of bandwidth enables customers to build a robust switch fabric scaling from as few as 200 10-Gbps server ports to more than 200,000 10-Gbps server ports.

    Increased integrated buffer space

    Up to a total of 50 MB of integrated shared buffer space allows better management of speed mismatch between access and uplink ports.

    Designed for availability

    Hot-swappable, redundant power supplies and fan trays increase availability.

    Flexible airflow configuration

    Port-side intake and port-side exhaust airflow configurations are both supported.

    CPU, SSD, and memory

    Dual-core 2.5-GHz x86 CPUs with 64-GB SSD drive and 16 GB of memory provide enhanced network performance.

    Power efficiency

    All Cisco Nexus 9000 Series power supplies are 80 Plus Platinum rated.

    Advanced optics

    Cisco offers a pluggable 40 Gigabit Ethernet QSFP+ transceiver that enables customers to use existing 10 Gigabit Ethernet data center cabling to support 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This technology facilitates adoption of 40 Gigabit Ethernet with no cable infrastructure upgrade cost.
