Description
Enhanced Network Performance
The Cisco ONE Nexus 3548, 48 Ports Ethernet Switch (C1-N3K-C3548P) is designed to provide enhanced network performance for data centers and other high-demand environments. Some of the key features that contribute to this enhanced performance include:
- High-speed switching: The switch supports up to 48 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) ports, allowing for extremely fast data transfer and reduced latency.
- Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN): The switch supports VXLAN, which allows for the creation of virtual networks that can span multiple physical locations. This helps to improve network scalability and flexibility.
- Nexus Data Broker (NDB): The switch supports NDB, which allows for the collection and analysis of network data in real-time. This can help to identify potential performance bottlenecks and optimize network performance.
- Application Visibility and Control (AVC): The switch supports AVC, which allows for the monitoring and control of specific application traffic. This can help to optimize network performance for critical applications and reduce the impact of non-critical traffic.
- Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV): The switch supports OTV, which allows for the creation of virtual networks that can span multiple physical locations. This helps to improve network scalability and flexibility.
- Intelligent Traffic Director (ITD): The switch supports ITD, which allows for the creation of virtual networks that can span multiple physical locations. This helps to improve network scalability and flexibility.
- Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI): The switch supports ACI, which allows for the creation of virtual networks that can span multiple physical locations. This helps to improve network scalability and flexibility.
Advanced Features
The Cisco ONE Nexus 3548 (C1-N3K-C3548P) is a high-performance, 48-port Ethernet switch that offers a variety of advanced features to support the needs of modern networks. Some of these features include:
- Cisco Nexus Data Broker: This feature allows you to monitor and analyze network traffic in real-time, providing visibility into network performance and identifying potential issues.
- Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI): This feature allows you to automate and simplify the deployment and management of application-centric networks, providing a more efficient and secure network infrastructure.
- Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN): This feature allows you to create a virtualized network overlay that supports multi-tenancy and enables network scalability.
- Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing: These features allow you to create a more robust and efficient routing infrastructure, providing faster and more reliable network connectivity.
- Quality of Service (QoS): This feature allows you to prioritize different types of network traffic, ensuring that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need.
- Access Control Lists (ACLs): This feature allows you to create rules that control which devices can access certain parts of your network, providing enhanced security and access control.
- Cisco TrustSec: This feature allows you to implement secure segmentation, providing enhanced security and access control for different parts of your network.
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE): This feature allows the switch to conserve energy when network traffic is low, helping to reduce power consumption and costs.
- Cisco FabricPath: This feature allows you to create a more efficient and scalable network infrastructure, providing faster and more reliable network connectivity.
Energy Efficiency and Power Saving Technologies
energy efficiency and power saving technologies to help reduce energy costs and minimize the environmental impact of your network. Some of these features include:
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE): The switch supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which reduces power consumption when the link is idle by reducing the number of times the link needs to wake up to check for traffic.
- Dynamic power savings: The switch can automatically adjust power consumption based on the number of active ports, reducing power usage when the switch is not fully utilized.
- Power capping: The switch supports power capping, which allows you to set a maximum power consumption limit for the switch, helping to control energy costs.
- EnergyWise: The switch supports EnergyWise, which allows you to monitor and manage energy consumption for all devices on your network, including switches, routers, and endpoints.
- Power-on auto-provisioning (POAP): The switch supports POAP, which allows you to automate the initial configuration of the switch, reducing the time and effort required to bring new switches online.
- Power supply redundancy: The switch supports power supply redundancy, which ensures that the switch continues to operate even if one of the power supplies fails.
- Fanless design: The switch has a fanless design, which reduces energy consumption and noise, and increases the lifespan of the switch by eliminating a common point of failure.
