Description

Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Chassis Network Switch Ghana

The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana switch comes with two front-accessible module slots with front-to-back airflow and an integrated cable management system designed to meet the requirements of mission-critical data centers, this switch delivers exceptional availability, outstanding scalability, and the proven and comprehensive Cisco NX-OS Software data center switching feature set. The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana is the foundation of the Cisco Unified Fabric solution. Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana chassis use a passive mid-plane architecture, providing physical connectors and copper traces for interconnecting the fabric modules and I/O modules for direct data transfer. All inter-module switching is performed via crossbar fabric ASICs on the individual I/O modules and fabric modules.

Features

Compact Form Factor

The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana is space optimized to deliver lower TCO :

Its 3RU chassis has one module slot.
It supports 48 ports of 1/10 GE, 24 ports of 40 GE, or 12 ports of 100 GE; all ports are nonblocking.
Power consumption is low.
It delivers true front-to-back air flow for hot-cold aisle deployments.

Deployment Flexibility

The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana switch is designed to extend the feature richness of the Nexus 7700 family to small and medium-sized deployments. The comprehensive DCI feature set includes Cisco Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV), Cisco Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP), Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS). The switch is hardware ready for Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Ethernet VPN (EVPN) technologies.

In addition, the compact sever chassis offers :

High-performance Remote Integrated Service Engine (RISE) and Intelligent Traffic Director (ITD) services from Cisco
Comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 feature sets for small data center aggregation and campus cores

Operation and Feature Consistency

Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana maintain consistency with the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series, offering :

The same proven common architecture, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), and Cisco NX-OS software
One of the industry’s most comprehensive data center feature sets
The same software train across the entire Cisco Nexus 7000 Series to help ensure consistency

Other Features and Benefits

The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana Switch, with one I/O module slots, supports up to 48 x 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 24 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet ports, or 12 x 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports, to meet the demands of small campus and data center deployments in a compact 3 Rack Units (RU) footprint.
The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana Switch has one dedicated half-slot supervisor.
The Cisco Nexus 7700 2-slot chassis does not include any fabric modules as it has a single module only. The system is capable of supporting all current and future Cisco Nexus 7700 modules at full line-rate switching capacity.
Front-to-back airflow helps ensure that the Cisco Nexus 7702 addresses the requirement for hot-aisle and cold-aisle deployments, to help provide efficient cooling.
The system uses one fan tray for cooling. The fan tray is composed of three independent variable-speed fans that automatically adjust to the ambient temperature, helping to reduce power consumption in well-managed facilities while supporting optimum operation of the switch.
The system supports an optional door and air filter to help ensure clean airflow through the system. The addition of the air filter satisfies Network Equipment Building Standards (NEBS) requirements.
The Cisco Nexus 7700 2-Slot Switch can have up to two 3- or 3.5-kilowatt (KW) power supplies. The redundant power supply configuration provides more flexibility in power redundancy configuration.
The I/O module, supervisor module, and power supplies are accessible from the front, and the fan tray is accessible from the back of the chassis.
The I/O module, supervisor module, and power supplies are inter-changeable across all Cisco Nexus 7700 chassis.

Cable Management System

An integrated cable management system, custom designed for the Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana, supports the cabling requirements of a fully configured system at either or both sides of the switch, providing outstanding flexibility. All system components can easily be removed with the cabling in place, providing ease of maintenance with no disruption

Energy-Efficient Design

The Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana power supplies 90 percent efficient or greater, so less power is dissipated as heat, and more power is available for the system to use than with typical power supplies. These high-efficiency power supplies allow smaller power configuration and provide flexible power provisioning. The fan trays in the switches have variable speed fans that adjust to compensate for changing thermal characteristics and use less power at typical operating conditions. Standard fan trays are included as part of the Cisco Nexus7700-2Slot Ghana chassis.
