Cisco Nexus 9300 93180YC-FX 48-Port Managed 10GBase-X 40GBase-X 10 Gigabit Ethernet

High-density, nonblocking, and low-power 48 x 10/25-Gbps ports with the Nexus 93180YC-FX

This SFP-based switch supports Cisco Tetration Analytics for deep telemetry and Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI). It's ideal for leaf-and-spine deployment in enterprise, service provider, large virtualized, and cloud environments.

Architectural flexibility

• Leaf-node support for Cisco ACI architecture with flexible port configuration
• Seamless convergence thanks to 48 downlink ports that can work as 1/10/25-Gbps Ethernet or FCoE ports or as 8/16/32-Gbps Fibre Channel ports
• Easy migration with 6 uplink ports that can be configured as 40/100-Gbps Ethernet or FCoE ports

Rich features

• Automated policy-based systems management with Cisco ACI
• Open APIs enable third-party integration with our partners
• Better management of speed mismatch between access and uplink ports with 40 MB of shared buffer space
• Support for Fibre Channel interfaces for back-end storage connectivity

Top-notch security

• Whitelist model, policy enforcement and application security with Cisco ACI microsegmentation
• Wire-rate MACsec encryption on all ports

Real-time visibility and telemetry

• Built-in Cisco Tetration sensors for rich traffic-flow telemetry and line-rate data collection
• Get actionable insights in less than 1 second
• Get visibility into everything in your data center

Highly available and efficient design

• High-performance, nonblocking architecture
• Easily deployed into either a hot-aisle or a cold-aisle configuration
• Redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays

Simplified operations

• Automate IT work flows and shorten app deployment from weeks to minutes

Investment protection

•  Flexible migration options with support for 10-Gbps and 25-Gbps access connectivity and 40-Gbps and 100-Gbps uplinks
• Cisco's 40-Gbps bidirectional transceiver allows for reuse of an existing 10 Gigabit Ethernet multimode cabling plant for 40 Gigabit Ethernet
