The Cisco Nexus 2248TP-E GE Fabric Extender (part number: N2K-C2248TP-E-1GE=) is a flexible and versatile expansion module designed to offer 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, making it well-suited for environments requiring a high number of port connections. This fabric extender is intended for use with the Cisco Nexus series switches, providing top-of-rack connectivity that extends the capabilities of a Nexus switch into a distributed configuration.
The module supports 48 1000BASE-T ports and 4 10GE SFP+ uplink ports, allowing for efficient connection to upper-layer switches while managing traffic flow seamlessly from multiple devices. The flexibility provided by these SFP+ ports ensures that this module remains future-proof for installations requiring a mix of 1G and 10G networking.
Another important feature of the Cisco Nexus 2248TP-E Fabric Extender is its energy-efficient design, compliant with modern data centre requirements for reduced power consumption and space optimisation. It supports Cisco Nexus Switch FEX Technology, which enables a fabric extender to behave logically as an extension of a parent Nexus switch, simplifying data centre architectures by collapsing the access and aggregation layers.
This fabric extender also incorporates high availability features, such as redundant power supply support and hot-swappable design, to offer enterprise-grade reliability. It's also backed by Cisco's software-defined architecture, ensuring robust integration into data centres using automation and programmability to simplify network management.
