The Cisco UCS 6248UP Fabric Interconnect, assigned part number UCS-FI-6248UP-UPG, is a foundational component of the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS). This unit features a 1U rack-mountable chassis, making it suitable for environments where space is a consideration. It provides a total of 48 ports, while offering scalable and flexible performance to suit different enterprise data centre needs.
This model is a managed switch designed to streamline data processing and unify networking, storage, and management traffic into a single simplified architecture. Out of the 48 possible ports, a base configuration provides 32 active ports, with the option to unlock additional ports if necessary to scale network capacity.
The Unified Port (UP) architecture of this fabric interconnect allows for flexibility in configuring the ports as either Ethernet or Fibre Channel, making it a versatile choice for varying traffic types, including both LAN and SAN. This offers increased adaptability when integrating different types of networking and storage within data centres.
The advanced hardware includes high availability features, with redundant components ensuring that the interconnect can perform under demanding conditions. The switch offers line-rate, low-latency connectivity, providing rapid data transmission between servers, storage arrays, and networks, reducing bottlenecks.
Overall, the Cisco UCS 6248UP Fabric Interconnect provides an optimal solution for organisations looking to centralise their server, networking, and storage management, promoting greater efficiency in data centre operations while allowing for future scalability thanks to its flexible port options and high-performance capabilities.
