The N2K-C2224TF is a Cisco Nexus 2000 series 24-port fabric extender that provides high scalability and reliability in data center environments.
Scalability: The N2K-C2224TF is designed to support up to 24 ports of 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet or 4/8/16 Gigabit Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) connectivity. It also supports port-channeling, which enables up to 8 ports to be combined into a single logical interface for increased bandwidth and redundancy. Additionally, the Nexus 2000 series supports hot-swappable expansion modules, allowing for easy upgrades and scalability.
Reliability: The N2K-C2224TF is designed for high availability with features such as redundant power supplies and fans. It also supports Cisco Fabric Extender Technology (FEX), which enables the fabric extender to be managed and controlled by a parent switch, such as a Cisco Nexus 5000 or 7000 series switch. This helps to simplify management and reduce the risk of network downtime.
Supported Connectivity Standards and ProtocolsThe Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extender (FEX) N2K-C2224TF is a 24-port switch that provides connectivity to Cisco Nexus switches through the use of Cisco's Fabric Extender Technology (FET). The N2K-C2224TF supports several connectivity standards and protocols, including:
- Ethernet: The N2K-C2224TF supports Ethernet connectivity, including 10/100/1000BASE-T and 10/100/1000BASE-TX.
- Fibre Channel: The N2K-C2224TF supports Fibre Channel (FC) connectivity, including 2/4/8 Gbps FC.
- FCoE: The N2K-C2224TF supports Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), which allows Fibre Channel traffic to be carried over Ethernet networks.
- Virtual PortChannel (vPC): The N2K-C2224TF supports Cisco's vPC technology, which allows multiple upstream switches to be treated as a single logical switch.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The N2K-C2224TF supports QoS features, including class of service (CoS), differentiated services code point (DSCP), and type of service (ToS).
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): The N2K-C2224TF supports LACP, which allows multiple links to be aggregated into a single logical link.
- Spanning Tree Protocol (STP): The N2K-C2224TF supports STP, which prevents loops in the network.
- Cisco FabricPath: The N2K-C2224TF supports Cisco FabricPath, which is a Cisco proprietary protocol for scalable and resilient data center networks.
The N2K-C2224TF Cisco Nexus 2000 Series 24 Ports Fabric Extender provides several features for high availability and redundancy, including:
- Dual uplink ports: The N2K-C2224TF has two uplink ports that can be used for redundant connections to a parent switch. This provides an additional path for data to flow in case one of the uplink ports fails.
- Hot-swappable components: The N2K-C2224TF has hot-swappable power supplies and fans, which means that they can be replaced while the switch is still operational. This reduces downtime and ensures that the switch remains available even if a component fails.
- Virtual PortChannel (vPC): The N2K-C2224TF supports vPC, which allows two switches to be configured in a way that they appear as a single logical switch to the attached devices. This provides redundancy and load balancing across the switches, and can help ensure that traffic continues to flow even if one switch fails.
- PortChannel: The N2K-C2224TF supports PortChannels, which allow multiple physical connections between two switches to be grouped together into a single logical connection. This provides redundancy and load balancing across the physical connections, and can help ensure that traffic continues to flow even if one connection fails.
- Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP): The N2K-C2224TF supports RSTP, which is a protocol used to prevent loops in a network topology. RSTP can help ensure that traffic continues to flow even if a link fails or a switch goes down.
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): The N2K-C2224TF supports LACP, which is a protocol used to dynamically bundle multiple physical connections together into a single logical connection. LACP can help ensure that traffic continues to flow even if one of the physical connections fails.
