The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series 9-Slot Chassis 110Gbps/Slot Fabric Module (Part Number: N7K-C7009-FAB-2=) is a vital component designed to support high-performance network operations. It fits into the 9-slot chassis of the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series, specifically engineered to enable a data throughput of up to 110Gbps per slot, ensuring robust system performance. This fabric module plays a significant role in maintaining seamless communication between line cards and supervisor engines, making it essential for high-capacity data centre environments.
This fabric module is a managed, plug-in module that enhances scalability and versatility. It primarily supports the needs of large-scale networks requiring superior layer 2 and layer 3 switching capabilities. Each Nexus 7000 Series chassis can support up to five of these fabric modules, and with the inclusion of multiple modules, the bandwidth increases accordingly, supporting systems with higher data transmission and network demands.
Another key attribute is the fabric module’s ability to participate in a fully distributed architecture, reducing latency and increasing the efficiency of packet forwarding. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series enables simplified architecture for both enterprise and service provider core networks, and this fabric module ensures that data is moved internally between the switch elements with little interruption and high speed.
In addition, this module is hot-swappable, meaning it can be replaced or installed without causing network downtime, providing organisations with continuous operational performance. Furthermore, the redundant options offered by the chassis ensure that even the failure of a fabric module will not result in total system failure or data loss.
