N9K-C93240YC-FX2

Cisco Nexus 9300-FX2 series is an extension of Nexus 9300-FX series switches with higher bandwidth capacity. The switches offer a variety of interface options to transparently migrate existing data centers from 1-Gbps, and 10-Gbps speeds to 25- Gbps at the server, and from 10- and 40-Gbps speeds to 50- and 100- Gbps at the aggregation layer. The platforms provide investment protection for customers, delivering large buffers, highly flexible Layer 2 and Layer 3 scalability, and performance to meet the changing needs of virtualized data centers and automated cloud environments.
