The Cisco UCS 6120XP Fabric Interconnect (Part Number: N10-S6100) is a network management device integral to Cisco’s Unified Computing System (UCS). This component is responsible for connecting servers in the UCS to both storage systems and networks, helping manage traffic flow efficiently. The 6120XP model is designed to provide high performance, scalability, and flexibility to any data centre environment.
With a switching capacity of 640 Gbps, the Cisco UCS 6120XP ensures rapid and reliable connectivity, making it ideal for environments requiring a large throughput. It offers both 1 GbE and 10 GbE Ethernet interfaces, supporting versatile deployment scenarios depending on the infrastructure requirements. The device also incorporates support for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), making it viable for converged storage environments where both server and storage traffic share the same infrastructure.
The UCS 6120XP features 48 network ports, providing substantial connectivity options for servers and other network devices. In addition to handling network traffic, this fabric interconnect also ensures a unified management plane for the entire UCS system, simplifying the management of servers, storage, and network infrastructure from a single interface. The interconnect is rack-mountable, supporting installations in typical server rooms or data centres.
Designed for enterprise environments demanding high availability and data redundancy, the 6120XP supports hot-swappable components. This ensures continued functionality even during maintenance or equipment failures, which is crucial for environments where downtime must be minimised. Additionally, the Cisco UCS 6120XP has robust capabilities for managing Layer 2 and Layer 3 network traffic, making it highly adaptable to various network topologies.
