N2K-C2348TQ12F Cisco Nexus 2348TQ Expansion Module Factory New

The Cisco Nexus 2348TQ is a top-of-rack (ToR) switch that is designed for high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity in data centers. It comes with 48 fixed 10GBASE-T ports and 6 fixed QSFP+ ports, and supports up to 12 BiDi (Bidirectional) expansion modules. The switch offers a range of features and benefits that make it a powerful and flexible solution for data center networks, including:

• High-density connectivity: The Cisco Nexus 2348TQ provides high-density 10GbE connectivity, with up to 48 10GBASE-T ports and 6 QSFP+ ports. It supports up to 12 BiDi expansion modules, which can increase the port count to 576.
• Redundant power supply: The switch is equipped with a redundant power supply, which ensures high availability and uptime for critical applications and services. The redundant power supply also provides power to the BiDi expansion modules.
• Low latency: The switch has low latency, which makes it ideal for use in high-performance computing (HPC) and other latency-sensitive applications.
• High bandwidth: The switch has a high bandwidth capacity, with support for up to 1.44 Tbps of non-blocking bandwidth.
• Virtual PortChannel (vPC): The switch supports Cisco's Virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology, which allows you to create a loop-free topology and provide active-active redundancy for connected devices.
• Cisco NX-OS: The switch runs Cisco's NX-OS operating system, which provides a range of advanced features, including virtualization, security, and automation capabilities.
• Ease of management: The switch is easy to manage, with support for a range of management tools, including the Cisco CLI, Cisco DCNM, and Cisco Nexus Fabric Manager.

The Cisco Nexus 2348TQ with 12 BiDi expansion modules is designed to provide high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity in data center networks. It offers a range of advanced security features to protect against threats and ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. Some of the key security features of the switch are:

• Access Control Lists (ACLs): The switch supports ACLs, which allow you to control access to network resources based on a set of rules. ACLs can be used to block unauthorized traffic, limit access to specific ports or IP addresses, and provide additional security for sensitive data.
• Port security: The switch supports port security, which allows you to limit the number of MAC addresses that can be learned on a particular port. This feature can be used to prevent unauthorized devices from connecting to the network, and can help protect against MAC flooding attacks.
• 802.1X authentication: The switch supports 802.1X authentication, which allows you to control access to the network based on user credentials. This feature can be used to prevent unauthorized access to the network, and can help protect against rogue devices.
• Private VLANs: The switch supports Private VLANs (PVLANs), which allow you to create isolated VLANs within a larger VLAN. PVLANs can be used to provide additional security for sensitive data or to separate different types of traffic.
• Secure management: The switch provides secure management capabilities, including support for SSH, SSL, and SNMPv3. These features allow you to securely manage the switch and protect against unauthorized access.
• Network segmentation: The switch supports network segmentation, which allows you to create separate virtual networks within the same physical network. This feature can be used to improve security by isolating different types of traffic or applications.
• Multilevel security: The switch provides multilevel security capabilities, including support for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Secure Boot. RBAC allows you to control access to specific switch functions based on user roles, while Secure Boot ensures that the switch boots only from authorized firmware images.

The Cisco Nexus 2348TQ with 12 BiDi expansion modules is designed for high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity in data center networks. It offers a range of high availability and redundancy options to ensure maximum uptime and availability of critical applications and services. Some of the key high availability and redundancy options of the switch are:

• Redundant power supply: The switch is equipped with a redundant power supply, which ensures high availability and uptime for critical applications and services. If one power supply fails, the other power supply takes over automatically.
• Hot-swappable fans: The switch is designed with hot-swappable fans, which can be replaced without disrupting the operation of the switch. This feature ensures that the switch remains operational even if a fan fails.
• Virtual PortChannel (vPC): The switch supports Cisco's Virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology, which allows you to create a loop-free topology and provide active-active redundancy for connected devices. With vPC, you can connect a device to two different switches and create a single logical interface, which provides redundancy and load balancing.
• Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): The switch supports LACP, which allows you to create link aggregation groups (LAGs) to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy. LACP ensures that traffic is distributed evenly across the links in the LAG, and can detect and automatically recover from link failures.
• Cisco FabricPath: The switch supports Cisco FabricPath, which provides a scalable and resilient fabric for data center networks. FabricPath uses a loop-free topology and supports equal-cost multipath (ECMP) routing, which provides redundancy and load balancing.
• Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP): The switch supports RSTP, which provides fast convergence times and helps prevent loops in the network. RSTP can detect and quickly recover from link or switch failures, which helps ensure high availability.
• In-Service Software Upgrades (ISSU): The switch supports ISSU, which allows you to upgrade the software on the switch without disrupting the operation of the network. This feature ensures that critical applications and services remain operational during software upgrades.
