Product Overview
The Cisco N9K-C9336C-FX2 Nexus 9300-FX2 Series Switch is a fast, next-generation, Layer 3 managed switch optimally suited to current data center, cloud, and enterprise network architectures. This switch offers excellent scalability, flexibility and throughput of up to 36 ports of 100/40 Gigabit Ethernet (QSFP28) connections, and is designed to provide high throughput for high workload.
The N9K-C9336C-FX2 is part of the Cisco Nexus 9000 series and is based on Cisco NX-OS or ACI (Application Centric Infrastructure) to achieve optimal efficiency of the data center. It offers 36 fixed QSFP28 ports with 1x100G or 4x25G breakout and more port density and protection against investment. It is an ideal switch used in high-bandwidth aggregation and spine-leaf systems, provides uniform low-latency operations, and offers expanded programmability.
Constructed to excel in operations, it has hot-swappable parts, load-balanced power feeds, and front-to-back or back-to-front airflow thermal efficiency. Its 1RU size integrates well into current rack environments with outstanding reliability, automation, and network visibility.
