The Cisco Nexus 5596UP switch is designed for high-performance, enterprise-level networks, combining versatility and scalability. It features 48 ports that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) via its SFP+ module. These ports allow for high-speed data transmission and are ideal for organisations that require significant server and storage connectivity. The switch is a managed unit, giving administrators detailed control and oversight over network traffic, helping to optimise performance in complex network environments.
The unit is rack-mountable, ensuring it fits perfectly in standard data centre racks, making installation easy in various network architectures. The bundle includes 6x Cisco Nexus 2248TP GE Fabric Extenders to increase the flexibility of the switch. These fabric extenders simplify operations by providing scalable port aggregation and allowing for easier upgrades, extending the life of the switch and offering investment protection over time.
The included 48x 10G SFP+ module (FET-10G) enables extensive fibre optic connectivity, ensuring low-latency transmission with high throughput. This is particularly beneficial for use cases such as cloud computing, data centres, and high-frequency trading, where consistent, high-volume data transfer is critical. The integration of the fabric extenders with the main Cisco 5596UP switch makes it easier to manage large networks with multiple access points while maintaining lower overhead.
