Description

Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Dubai

The Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Dubai is equipped with two I/O module slots, supporting an extensive range of ports including up to 96 x 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, 12 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and 4 x 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports. This configuration caters to the requirements of small to medium-sized data centers, co-locations, access- and aggregation-layer deployments, high-speed core deployments, and smaller operational zones. Additionally, the Cisco Nexus7000-4Slot Dubai chassis incorporates two dedicated supervisor slots to ensure complete redundancy and high availability. Notably, the 4-slot chassis does not necessitate fabric modules, as the local I/O module fabrics are interconnected to form a two-stage crossbar linking the I/O modules and the supervisor engines. The backplane capacity is contingent upon the installed I/O modules, facilitating seamless data transmission and management within the system.

Features

High Availability

• 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

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 Dubai 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 Dubai 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.
