The Cisco N2K-C2232TM-10GE is a high-performance 32-port fabric extender switch designed to provide scalable, high-speed connectivity in modern data center environments. It integrates seamlessly with Cisco Nexus 5000, 6000, 7000, and 9000 Series switches to extend port density while simplifying management and reducing operational costs. With 32 1/10GBASE-T host interfaces and 8 10G SFP+ uplink ports, it delivers fast, reliable connections for servers and storage systems, supporting bandwidth-intensive workloads, virtualization, and high-performance computing.
Built for reliability and efficiency, the N2K-C2232TM-10GE features hot-swappable power supplies and fan modules, 1:1 power redundancy, and hardware forwarding at up to 800Gbps, ensuring high availability in critical environments. It supports advanced Layer 2 features, jumbo frames, VLANs, QoS, and local multicast replication, while management is simplified through in-band management via the parent Nexus switch, SNMP, XML (NETCONF), and CLI interfaces. The chassis is rack-mountable, compact, and designed for optimized thermal performance.
