N9K-C9372PX-E Overview Cisco Nexus 9372PX-E Switch (N9K-C9372PX-E) is a minor hardware revision of the Cisco Nexus 9372PX. Enhancements include hardware capability for IP-based endpoint group (EPG) classification in Cisco ACI mode. Quick Specs Figure 1 shows the appearance of the N9K-C9372PX-E. Table 1 shows the Quick Specs. Product Code N9K-C9372PX-E Ports 48 fixed 1/10GBASE-T and 6 QSFP+ ports Form factor 1 RU Throughput (Tbps) 1.44 Supported speeds 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds 40 Gigabit Ethernet uplink port 6 fixed QSFP+ ports middot,Advanced QSFP+ optics enable connectivity using existing 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber. middot,The switch offers 25 MB of additional packet buffer space shared with all ports for more resilient operations Typical power(AC DC) 210W Maximum power(AC DC) 537W Maximum number of longest prefix match (LPM) routes 128,000 CPU, SSD, and memory Dual-core 2.5-GHz x86 CPUs with 64-GB SSD drive and 16 GB of memory provide enhanced network performance. Buffer (MB) 37 Operating System NX-OS, ACI Fans 4 Physical (H x W x D) 1.72 x 17.3 x 22.5 in. (4.4 x 43.9 x 57.1 cm) Acoustics 48.5 dBA at 40% fan speed, 64.9 dBA at 70% fan speed, and 77.8 dB at 100% fan speed Weight(without power supplies or fans) 22.2 lb (10.1 kg) middot,Typical and maximum power values are based on input drawn from the power circuit. The power supply value (for example, 650W AC power supply: N9K-PAC-650W) is based on the output rating to the inside of the switch. middot,The actual maximum scale depends on the system forwarding mode Product Details Figure 2 shows the front panel of the N9K-C9372PX-E.
