The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is a high-performance network device that extends the capabilities of the HPE BladeSystem C-Class platform. It is designed to provide a cost-effective and scalable solution for connecting blade servers to the network infrastructure.
In this article, we will explain in detail what the N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is, how it works, and what its benefits are.
The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric ExtenderThe N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is a device that connects HPE BladeSystem servers to the network infrastructure. It is a part of the Cisco Unified Fabric architecture, which is a set of technologies that enable converged data, voice, and storage networks.
The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is a plug-in module that fits into the BladeSystem enclosure. It provides up to 16 external Gigabit Ethernet ports for connecting to the network infrastructure.
The N2K-B22HP-P Fabric Extender workThe N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender works by extending the fabric of the parent Cisco Nexus switch to the BladeSystem enclosure. It uses the Cisco Fabric Extender Technology (FEX), which is a set of technologies that enable the extension of the fabric across multiple physical devices.
The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender acts as a remote line card of the parent Cisco Nexus switch. It receives the control and data packets from the blade server and forwards them to the parent switch. The parent switch processes the packets and sends them to their destination.
The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender supports virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology, which enables the creation of a single logical PortChannel across multiple fabric extenders. This provides redundancy and load balancing across the fabric extenders.
The benefits of HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric ExtenderThe N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender provides several benefits to the BladeSystem C-Class platform, including:
- Scalability: The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender enables the BladeSystem C-Class platform to scale up to 16 external Gigabit Ethernet ports per module. This allows for the easy expansion of the network infrastructure as the business grows.
- Cost-effectiveness: The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is a cost-effective solution for connecting blade servers to the network infrastructure. It eliminates the need for additional switches, cables, and management tools, which reduces the overall cost of the solution.
- Simplified management: The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender integrates with the Cisco Unified Fabric architecture, which provides a single management interface for the entire network infrastructure. This simplifies the management and configuration of the network.
- High-performance: The N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender provides high-performance connectivity to the network infrastructure. It supports up to 16 external Gigabit Ethernet ports per module, which enables the fast and efficient transfer of data.
Overall, the N2K-B22HP-P HPE Cisco B22hp Fabric Extender is a high-performance network device that extends the capabilities of the HPE BladeSystem C-Class platform. It provides a cost-effective and scalable solution for connecting blade servers to the network infrastructure.
