The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 Cisco Nexus 7000 Fabric Switch Module is a revolutionary network operations device that offers a high-performance, scalable, and resilient architecture for data center environments. This module is part of the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series, which is designed to provide a unified data center platform that supports multiple services, protocols, and technologies.
The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 module is a fabric switch that provides a non-blocking, lossless fabric for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series. It is designed to support up to 9 Tbps of switching capacity and up to 1.44 Tbps of fabric bandwidth. The module offers a high-performance, low-latency switching fabric that enables the deployment of large-scale data center networks.
The module also supports a variety of features that are designed to improve network operations, such as:
- Virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology, which allows multiple switches to be connected together to form a single logical switch, providing redundancy and increased bandwidth.
- Flexible NetFlow (FNF), which is a network traffic monitoring and analysis tool that allows network administrators to monitor and troubleshoot network traffic in real-time.
- Quality of Service (QoS), which allows network administrators to prioritize different types of network traffic, such as voice or video, to ensure that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need.
- Virtual Device Contexts (VDC), which allow network administrators to partition a single physical switch into multiple virtual switches, each with its own configuration and resources.
- Cisco FabricPath, which is a layer 2 multipath protocol that increases the scalability and redundancy of data center networks by allowing multiple paths between switches.
The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 Cisco Nexus 7000 Fabric Switch Module is a high-speed networking device designed for use in large-scale data center environments. It is a modular switch that can be used in conjunction with other Nexus 7000 series switches to create a highly scalable and redundant network infrastructure.
One of the key features of the N7K-C7009-FAB-2 is its ability to support high-speed networking. It can handle data transfer rates of up to 9 terabits per second (Tbps), which is significantly faster than traditional switches. This allows for faster data transfer between servers and storage devices, as well as between different parts of the network.
The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 also supports advanced features such as virtualization, Quality of Service (QoS), and network security. This allows network administrators to easily manage and control network traffic, ensuring that critical applications and services receive the bandwidth they need while also protecting the network from potential security threats.
In addition, the N7K-C7009-FAB-2 also supports both Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocols, allowing for easy integration with existing storage networks. This allows for faster and more efficient data transfer between servers and storage devices, which can greatly improve the performance of data-intensive applications.
Network Expansion and Connectivity of Nexus SwitchThe N7K-C7009-FAB-2 Cisco Nexus 7000 Fabric Switch Module is a high-performance, modular switch that provides expansion and connectivity for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series data center switches. It is designed to work in conjunction with the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Supervisor Module to provide a flexible, scalable, and highly available switching platform for data center networks.
The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 provides 9 slots for line card modules, which can be used to expand the number of ports and increase the bandwidth of the switch. The line card modules can support a variety of different port speeds, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 40 Gigabit Ethernet, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet.
In addition to expanding the number of ports and increasing the bandwidth, the N7K-C7009-FAB-2 also provides connectivity between the Supervisor Module and the line card modules. This is done through the use of crossbar fabric modules, which provide high-speed, low-latency connections between the Supervisor Module and the line card modules.
The N7K-C7009-FAB-2 also includes a number of advanced features, such as Virtual Device Contexts (VDCs) and FlexLinks, which provide enhanced security, flexibility, and availability. VDCs allow multiple virtual switches to be created within the same physical switch, while FlexLinks provide automatic failover and redundancy in the event of a link failure.
