The Nexus 9300 N9K-C93180YC-FX delivers 48 ports of 1/10/25G SFP28 downlink connectivity paired with 6 uplink ports supporting 40/100G QSFP28 speeds, making it a high-density solution for data center environments requiring significant port concentration and bandwidth scaling. Built on Cisco's Cloud Scale ASIC architecture, this 1RU fixed configuration switch achieves a total switching capacity of 3.6 Tbps with a forwarding rate of 2.0 Bpps, enabling wire-speed performance across all ports simultaneously. With cut-through latency under 1 microsecond, the Nexus 9300 series switch is engineered for low-latency, high-throughput workloads where microsecond delays impact application performance.
Network engineers and data center architects will appreciate the comprehensive feature set, including native VXLAN BGP EVPN support for overlay networking and IEEE 802.1AE hardware-based MACsec encryption on all ports to secure east-west traffic. The switch supports both Cisco NX-OS and Cisco ACI operating modes, offering flexibility in management and orchestration strategies. Data Center Bridging capabilities—including PFC, ETS, and DCBX—ensure lossless transport for converged workloads, while 9216-byte jumbo frame support accommodates large packet sizes. Redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fan modules with configurable airflow direction provide operational resilience, with typical AC power consumption around 350W. Out-of-band management via dedicated 10/100/1000M RJ-45 and RS-232 console interfaces, plus a front-panel USB Type-A port, streamline deployment and troubleshooting. The part number CISCO-N9K-C93180YC-FX-NEXUS-9300-48-PORT-25G-100G identifies this platform for procurement and inventory purposes.
