Simplify your data center access architecture and operations with the Cisco Nexus® 23 platform fabric extenders, the successors to the industry’s widely adopted Cisco Nexus 2 Series Fabric Extenders. The Cisco Nexus 23 platform with its Cisco® fabric extender architecture provides a highly scalable unified server-access platform across a range of connectivity options such as 1 Megabit Ethernet; 1, 1, and 4 Gigabit Ethernet; unified fabric; copper and fiber connectivity; and rack and blade server environments.
The platform offers excellent support for migration from traditional 1 Gigabit Ethernet to 1 and 4 Gigabit Ethernet and virtual machine - aware unified fabric technologies.
The Cisco Nexus 23 platform maintains all the existing Cisco Nexus 2 Series features, including a single point of management, high availability with virtual PortChannels (vPC), vPC+, Enhanced vPC, and LAN and SAN convergence using Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). With the addition of true 4 Gigabit Ethernet support, deep buffers to handle bursts of traffic common in today’s data center, and unified port capability (on 2348UPQ with 56 only starting 7.3 release), the Cisco Nexus 23 platform is suitable for highly virtualized, automated, and cloud environments.
The Cisco Nexus 23 fabric extenders provide a 1-rack-unit (1RU) energy-efficient platform with a choice of front-to-back (port-side exhaust) and back-to-front (port-side intake) airflow options that offer 1 Megabit Ethernet; 1, 1, and 4 Gigabit Ethernet; Fibre Channel (on 2348UPQ with 56 only starting 7.3 release); and FCoE for a broad range of traditional data center and large-scale virtualized cloud deployments.
