Cisco N10-S6100

Cisco N10-S6100 Overview

The Cisco N10-S6100-UPG is a hardware upgrade module for the Cisco Nexus 6000 series switches. It does not function as a standalone switch but rather enhances the capabilities of existing Nexus 6000 switches. The product supports IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.1Q, IEEE 802.1p, IEEE 802.3x, IEEE 802.3ad (LACP), IEEE 802.1w, IEEE 802.3ae, IEEE 802.1s.

Some Product Features:

• Port Density:Ports per Switch: The Nexus 6000 series can support configurations with a variety of port densities, ranging from 48 to 96 10/25-Gigabit Ethernet ports and up to 24 40/100-Gigabit Ethernet ports per switch.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Upgraded Ports: The upgrade module (N10-S6100-UPG) allows for the addition of more high-speed ports or increased performance capabilities, depending on the existing switch model.
• Scalability:Stacking and Virtualization: Supports virtualized environments with features like Virtual Port Channels (vPC) and Cisco FabricPath for better network scalability and flexibility.  Modular Upgrades: The N10-S6100-UPG can be used to increase the performance and capacity of existing Nexus 6000 switches, enabling support for more demanding applications and larger network infrastructures.
• Advanced Features:Layer 2 and Layer 3 Capabilities: Provides advanced features such as VXLAN support for network virtualization, high availability, and robust Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching features.  High Availability: Includes redundant power supplies and fans, ensuring continued operation and reliability in critical environments.
• Power and Cooling:Power Consumption: Designed for efficient power use, but the exact requirements depend on the overall configuration and number of ports.                                                                        Cooling: Equipped with effective cooling solutions to maintain optimal operating temperatures.
