The Cisco Nexus 2232TM 10GBASE-T Fabric Extender (Part Number: N2K-C2232TM-10GE) is a highly capable expansion module designed to deliver advanced data centre switching capabilities. This unit features 32 ports, all of which support 10GBASE-T connectivity, making it a robust option for environments requiring high-speed networking and direct connection to servers.
As a Fabric Extender, the device works seamlessly with the Nexus switches to simplify operations and to extend the switch fabric closer to endpoints. By providing unified forwarding using the parent Nexus switch, it reduces complexity while supporting a wide variety of network topologies. Each port operates at speeds up to 10 Gbps, ensuring efficient and rapid data transfers across the network.
The module contains 32 10GBASE-T Ethernet host interfaces, ensuring top-tier performance in high-density configurations. The copper-based connections available on this extender also allow for easy integration with existing infrastructures, reducing the need for additional optical infrastructure.
The Cisco Nexus 2232TM operates using Cisco Fabric Extender Transceivers, which can further unify the management process across diverse environments within a network. Power consumption is relatively low compared with competing products, while the device maintains high throughput and minimal latency during operation.
This module is particularly appropriate for fast-growing data centres, as it supports advanced technologies like FabricPath. It also brings the benefits of a cost-effective, scalable solution that grows alongside increasing traffic demands. Users can expect seamless performance and simplified network management when using the Cisco Nexus 2232TM.
