N9K-C9504-B3-E Cisco Ethernet Switch Original New Modular Chassis Routing RADIUS (Cisco Ethernet Switch ethernet fiber transceiver cisco network controller) Product overview Cisco Nexus 9504 chassis bundle with 1 Sup, 3 PS, 2 SC, 4 FM-E, 3 Fan.Application architectures and deployment modes are rapidly evolving. Modern applications are multinode, highly modular, and deployed over a combination of bare-metal, virtual, and cloud data center environments. In addition to that, individual departments within an organization have varying infrastructure and networking needs. These factors require that data center networks be simple, programmable, extensible, scalable, and shareable to meet the demands of applications. The Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches operate in one of two modes Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI) or Cisco NX-OS. In Cisco ACI mode, these switches provide a turnkey, fully automated, policy-based architecture to design and manage data center fabrics. In Cisco NX-OS mode, these switches provide the capability to use foundational layer 2/3 technologies, as well as modern technologies such as VXLAN, with a Border Gateway Protocol‒Ethernet VPN control plane, Segment routing, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and automation via NX-APIs. Feature Benefit High performance The Cisco Nexus 9500 Series switch delivers nonblocking performance at a latency of 5 microseconds or less at 400-, 100-, 50-, 40-, 25-, 10-, and 1-Gigabit Ethernet speeds. This enables customers to build robust and scalable high-speed fabrics that can support several thousands of high-speed access ports. Telemetry The Cisco Nexus 9500 Series switches support extensive switch and flow telemetry capabilities that provide extensive real-time visibility into switch and fabric states. High-density 1-, 10-, 25-, 40- and 50-Gigabit Ethernet access configuration Organizations can transition from low-speed (100-Megabit Ethernet and 1-Gigabit Ethernet) server access designs to high-speed (1-, 10-, 25-, 40-, and 50-Gigabit Ethernet) server access designs with the same port density.
