| Nexus 3264C-E switch has the following hardware configuration: * 64 fixed 100-Gigabit Ethernet QSFP28 ports * 16 fixed MACsec enabled ports * Beacon LED * Environment LED * Status LED * Lane-selected LED * Dual redundant power supplies * Redundant (3+1) fans * 2 1/10G SFP+ ports (port 65 and port 66 in-front) * 1 RS-232 console port * 1 RJ45 and 1 SFP Management port * 1 USB port * Wire-rate Layer 2 and 3 switching on all ports[1] at up to 12.8 terabits per second and up to 4.3 billion packets per second. * Robust programmability with support for Cisco NX-API, Linux containers, XML and JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) APIs, the OpenStack plug-in, Python, and Puppet and Chef configuration and automation tools. * High performance and scalability with a 4-core CPU, 16 GB of DRAM, and 42 MB of dynamic buffer allocation, making the switch excellent for massively scalable data centers and big data application. * Flexibility: The QSFP28 port can be configured to work as 4 x 25-Gbps ports, 2x50-Gbps offering deployment flexibility, with up to a maximum of 128 x 25-Gbps ports. Both fiber and copper cabling solutions are available for 10-, 25-, 40-, 50-, and 100-Gbps connectivity, including Active Optical Cable (AOC) and Direct-Attached Cable (DAC). * High availability: Virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology provides Layer 2 multipath through the elimination of Spanning Tree Protocol. It also enables fully utilized bisectional bandwidth and simplified Layer 2 logical topologies without the need to change the existing management and deployment models. The 64-way Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP) routing enables the use of Layer 3 fat-tree designs. This feature allows organizations to prevent network bottlenecks, increase resiliency, and add capacity with little network disruption. Advanced reboot capabilities include hot and cold patching and fast reboot capabilities. The switch uses hot-swappable Power-Supply Units (PSUs) and fans. |
