Rated. / 5. Based on customer reviews
• Support for active twinaxial (twinax) cable at 1, 3, and 5 meters for 10 GbE ports
• Support for twinax and optical breakout cables for 40 GbE ports
NOTE
Support for the preceding optics depends on the installed line card. For details, refer to the "hardware
components" and "line cards" sections of this chapter.
• NEBS-compliant chassis (certification in process)
• Support for in-band management
• 15U form factor for chassis
• Support for Brocade trunking through the 48x10 GbE and 48x10G-T line card modules
• Support for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
Hardware components
The device features a modular and scalable mechanical construction that allows a wide range of
flexibility in installation, fabric design, and maintenance. The minimum chassis configuration is one
management module (MM), one switch fabric module (SFM), and one line card. The chassis can be
mounted with the cables facing the front of the equipment rack and consists of the following
components:
• Eight slots for hot-swappable line cards that can be configured in a single chassis. Depending on
the line cards installed, the following ports are available:
‐ Up to 384 1/10 Gbps ports for the 48x10 GbE line card.
48x10 GbE line cards support 10 GbE SFP+ and 1 GbE SFP optical transceivers, as well
as 1 GbE copper SFP transceivers. They also support direct-attach 10 GbE copper
twinaxial (twinax) cables at 1, 3, or 5 meters.
‐ Up to 384 1 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports for the 48x1 GbE line card.
48x1 GbE line cards support 1 GbE SFP optical and copper transceivers.
‐ Up to 96 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports for the 12x40 GbE line card. Up to 384 10 Gbps
ports are supported in QSFP breakout mode.
12x40 GbE line cards support 40 GbE QSFP optical transceivers.
‐ Up to 48 100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports for the 6x100 GbE line card.
The 6x100 GbE line cards ship with two base 100 Gigabit ports enabled, but can be
upgraded to enable six ports through the 100G Port Upgrade license. This upgrade license
is supported by Network OS 5.0.0 and later. Ports support 100 GbE CFP2 (SR10 and LR4)
optical transceivers.
‐ Up to 384 1/10 Gigabit Base-T Ethernet ports for the 48x10G-T line card.
48x10G-T line cards support fixed 10 GbE Base-T (RJ-45) copper transceivers.
‐ Up to 216 40 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports for the 27x40 GbE line card. Up to 576 10
Gigabit ports are supported in QSFP breakout mode.
27x40 GbE line cards support 40 GbE QSFP optical transceivers.
• Two slots for management modules:
‐ A single active management module can control all ports in the chassis.
‐ The standby management module takes control of the device if the active management
module fails.
• Six slots for switch fabric modules that interconnect all line cards.
