The Cisco Nexus 2248TP Fabric Extender (part number N2K-C2248TF) is an expansion module designed to provide efficient connectivity in data centre environments. It has a total of 48 Ethernet 1000Base-T ports that deliver high-speed throughput, ensuring optimal performance for modern networking demands. These 48 ports support Gigabit Ethernet, making it versatile for various network setups requiring reliable copper-based connections.
This unit functions as a fabric extender, working seamlessly with upstream Cisco Nexus switches. The Cisco Nexus 2248TP significantly simplifies network administration by using the parent switch's configuration, management, and control plane, effectively consolidating management tasks. It operates with a 1.92 terabits per second (Tbps) of switching capacity, ensuring rapid and reliable data handling for demanding enterprise applications.
Additionally, the Cisco Nexus 2248TP includes four 10-Gigabit uplink ports that are used to connect to the parent switch, providing strong bandwidth and enabling efficient data pathways from the access layer to the distribution or core layers in the network infrastructure. These uplink ports support both SFP+ and twinax cables, giving flexibility in connectivity options and facilitating the transportation of large data volumes.
Furthermore, the Nexus 2248TP Fabric Extender supports Layer 2 switching, which suits it for handling traffic efficiently without complicated Layer 3 routing processes. By operating under the Cisco Unified Fabric, it simplifies network architecture, reduces bottlenecks in large-scale deployments, and enhances system scalability. With a sturdy hardware architecture and Cisco’s trusted reliability, this model ensures both performance and operational longevity. Advanced features like power-efficient design contribute to energy savings without compromising network performance.
