Cisco Nexus 5672UP DATA CENTER Switch

(N5K-C5672UP)

Categories: , , ,

The Cisco Nexus 5672UP is a 1RU 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet switch offering wire-speed performance for up to seventy-two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports (using Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable [QSFP] breakout cables). Cisco Nexus 5672UP Switches are Layer 2 and 3 non-blocking 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE-capable switches with up to 1.44 terabits per second (Tbps) of internal bandwidth. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP offers 48 fixed 1 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports of which 16 ports can be unified ports (UP). All 48 fixed ports support classical Ethernet and FCoE. In addition, the 16 unified ports provide 8/4/2-Gbps Fibre Channel as well as 10 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE connectivity options. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP also offers 6 ports of 40 Gbps using QSFP transceivers for Ethernet and FCoE support. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP has three fan modules and two power supplies. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP is VXLAN ready, with VXLAN support in bridging and routing modes, on all ports at line rate, enabling the migration of virtual machines between servers across Layer 3 networks.
