Description
Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Chassis Network Switch Ghana
The Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Ghana chassis comes with two I/O module slots supports up to 96 x 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 12 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 x 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports, meeting the needs of small to medium-size data centers, co-locations, access- and aggregation-layer deployments, high-speed core deployments, and smaller operation zones. The Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Ghana chassis also has two dedicated supervisor slots to provide full redundancy and high availability. The 4-slot chassis does not require fabric modules. The local I/O module fabrics are connected back to back to form a two-stage crossbar that interconnects the I/O modules and the supervisor engines. The backplane capacity is determined by the installed I/O modules.
Features
High Availability
- The Cisco Nexus 7000 4-Slot Switch provides :
- Fully redundant system architecture with dual supervisors, redundant power supplies, and fans
- Lossless, non-disruptive In-Service Software Upgrades (ISSUs) for zero service downtime
- Graceful system operations to minimize the effect of upgrades and other maintenance
Scalability
Protect your infrastructure investments with the following features :
- 92 Tbps of switching capacity to scale for future growth demands
- Highly scalable modular NX-OS features such as Fabric Path and Fabric Extender (FEX) technology
Transport Flexibility
This switch offers transport flexibility with :
- Support for 1, 10, 40, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
- Optics options from short-range to long-range DWDM
- Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) for LAN and SAN consolidation
In addition, you get extensive Cisco Data Center Interconnect features, including :
- Overlay Transport Virtualization
- Locator ID Separation Protocol
- Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
Operational Efficiency
- Enhance your data center with increased operational efficiency, including :
- Single software image with a consistent NX-OS feature set across the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series
- Virtual Device Context (VDC) for efficient resource utilization
- Simplified management with choices of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), XML API, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager
- Integrated alerts with Cisco IOS Embedded Event Manager (EEM)
Integrated cable management system
Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Ghana is designed to support the cabling requirements of a fully configured system at either or both sides of the switch, allowing outstanding flexibility. All system components can easily be removed with the cabling in place, providing ease of maintenance tasks with little disruption.
Easy to Operate
A series of LEDs at the top of the chassis provide a clear summary of the status of the major system components, alerting operators to the need to conduct further investigation. These LEDs report the power supply, fan, fabric, supervisor, and I/O module status.
Convenient Design
Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Ghana has purpose-built optional front-module door provides protection from accidental interference with both the cabling and modules installed in the system. The transparent front door allows easy observation of cabling and module indicators and status lights without any need to open the doors, reducing the likelihood of faults caused by human interference. The door supports a dual-opening capability for flexible operation and cable installation while fitted. The door can easily be completely removed for both initial cabling and day-to-day management of the system.
Energy-Efficient Design
The Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Ghana uses power supplies that are up to 90 percent efficient, so less power is wasted as heat, and more power is available for the system to use than with typical power supplies. The fan modules in the chassis adjust to compensate for changing thermal characteristics.
