The NCS2K-MF-DEG-5 is a Cisco Mesh Interconnection 6 Ports Expansion Module used in high-speed data center networks. It provides connectivity between multiple Cisco NCS 2000 Series optical transport platforms to create a high-speed and high-capacity mesh network. The module offers several high availability and redundancy options, which are as follows:
- Redundant Power Supplies: The module is designed with redundant power supplies that ensure continuous power to the device. If one power supply fails, the other power supply takes over, ensuring uninterrupted network operations.
- Hot-Swappable Components: The module is designed with hot-swappable components, including line cards, fan trays, and power supplies. This feature allows network administrators to replace or add components without disrupting ongoing network operations.
- Resilient Mesh Topology: The module's mesh topology provides a redundant network architecture that ensures high availability and resiliency. If one network link fails, traffic is automatically rerouted through an alternative path, ensuring uninterrupted network operations.
- Link Aggregation: The module supports link aggregation, which allows multiple links to be combined into a single logical link. This provides increased bandwidth and redundancy, ensuring high availability and resiliency.
- Protection Switching: The module supports various protection switching schemes, including 1+1 protection and 1:N protection. These schemes provide an additional layer of redundancy to the network, ensuring uninterrupted network operations in the event of a link failure.
The NCS2K-MF-DEG-5 is a Cisco Mesh Interconnection 6 Ports Expansion Module, which is used in high-speed data center networks to provide connectivity between different network devices. The module can be deployed in several scenarios, including:
- High-Density Data Centers: The module is ideal for high-density data centers that require high-speed connectivity between multiple network devices. It allows network administrators to add more devices to the network and adjust the network configuration according to changing business needs.
- Cloud Service Providers: The module is suitable for cloud service providers who need to ensure fast and reliable connectivity between their data centers and their clients. The module's scalability and compatibility features enable cloud service providers to add more clients to the network and adjust the network configuration according to changing client needs.
- Telecommunications Providers: The module is suitable for telecommunications providers who require high-speed connectivity between their data centers and their clients. The module's compatibility with a wide range of Cisco devices ensures seamless integration with existing network infrastructure, simplifying network management and reducing the need for additional equipment.
- Financial Services: The module is ideal for financial services companies that require high-speed connectivity and low latency for their trading platforms. The module's fast and reliable connectivity and low power consumption ensure fast and efficient trading operations, while also reducing operational costs.
- Campus Networks: The module is suitable for campus networks that require high-speed connectivity between different buildings or locations. The module's mesh interconnection feature enables network administrators to create a flexible and scalable network topology that can adapt to changing campus needs.
The NCS2K-MF-DEG-5 Cisco Mesh Interconnection 6 Ports Expansion Module offers several high availability and redundancy options to ensure maximum network uptime and resiliency. These options include:
- Modular Design: The module has a modular design that allows network administrators to add or remove modules without affecting other parts of the network. This means that the network can be expanded or modified without downtime or disruption.
- Hot-Swappable: The module is hot-swappable, which means that it can be replaced while the network is still running. This reduces downtime and ensures that the network remains operational even in the event of a module failure.
- Redundant Power: The module has two power supply units (PSUs) for redundancy. If one PSU fails, the other one takes over automatically, ensuring that the module continues to operate without interruption.
- Redundant Cooling: The module has redundant cooling fans that ensure that the module stays cool and operates within its temperature range. If one fan fails, the other one takes over automatically, ensuring that the module remains operational.
- Resilient Network Topology: The module's mesh interconnection feature enables network administrators to create a resilient network topology that can withstand failures or disruptions in the network. The mesh topology provides multiple paths for data to travel, ensuring that data can still reach its destination even if one path is unavailable.
