Cisco N2K-C2348UPQ-10GE

Switches are devices that are used to connect various other devices within one network. Multiple devices from the same place can get connected and share data easily through switches. For this, each device must be attached with a switch to make a network. Various companies have launched their switches. One of them is Cisco, which has great features and is pocket-friendly also.

Cisco N2K-C2348UPQ-10GE is highly recommended due to its great performance of hardware forwarding data at the rate of 1440 Gbps or 2160 Mbps. However, the fabric speed is up to 240 Gbps towards each direction, which is equivalent to 480 Gbps in full-duplex mode. It supports Fiber Channels over Ethernet (FCoE) which makes it enable to run strong and direct communication through fiber channels over Ethernet. For this, they choose vise platforms with respective series that are suitable to each other. It makes these switches go through all the tasks go smoothly and swiftly. The fabric extender architecture of N2K-C2348UPQ-10GE provides extremely scalable integrated access to multiple platforms with a huge connectivity range of about 100 Megabit Ethernet connections. It also comprises copper and fiber connectivity, unified fabrics, and last but not the least, blade server settings.

Discussing the front and back panel of N2K-C2348UPQ-10GE in detail shows the comprehensive features. In the front panel, there is one ID LED, status LED, 10 Gigabit unified capable ports specifically for SFP and SFP+ transceivers, and lastly 6 ports of 40-Gigabit for QSFP+ transceivers. These are fixed connections and show the active status of a switch. However, the back panel consists of two hot-swappable power supply modules, ID LED, status LED, management HDMI port, and lastly three hot-swappable fan modules. All these modules and LEDs make it easy for the user to connect it with any other device. The activeness of the switch has been shown through the LEDs, which shows that they are connected successfully and are ready to work.

The weight is 15.50 lbs. which is equivalent to 7 kgs with manageable dimensions in height, width, and depth of 1.72 inches, 17.3 inches, and 14.05 inches respectively. The environment requires in an operating and non-operating condition has been defined as 0 to 55 degrees Celsius or 32 to 131 degrees in Fahrenheit and -40 to 70 degrees Celsius or -40 to 158 degrees in Fahrenheit respectively. While the humidity it can handle ranges between 5 to 95 percent with the altitude of 0 to 10,000 ft or 0-3000 meters. These switches are extremely flexible and manageable to use. It supports four Cisco parent switches of the Cisco Nexus series containing 5500 and 5600 platforms, 6000 series, 7000 series, and 7700 platforms, and lastly 9300 and 9500 series.

A single Cisco switch is all in one device which comprises vast features and amazing specifications. It deals with all the tasks actively and fast along with providing complete safety and a secure environment. So, get this hardware component now in an affordable range, to make the transmission of your data easily and safely throughout the network.
