Cisco Nexus 93108TC-FX3P Ethernet Switch

Product overview

Based on Cisco® Cloud Scale technology, the Cisco Nexus® 93108TC-FX3P Switch is a multigigabit-capable, fixed switch in the next-generation Cisco Nexus 9300 platform. Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet technology supports bandwidth speeds from 100Mbps to 10 Gbps over traditional Category 5e/6 cabling. This addresses the need for the exponential increases in bandwidth being driven by the enormous growth of 802.11ac Wave 2 and Wi-Fi 6 without having to replace current cabling infrastructure. The switch is built on modern-system architecture designed to provide high performance, support cost-effective deployments, and meet the evolving needs of growing mid-size to large enterprise customers.

Cisco provides two modes of operation for Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches. Organizations can deploy Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI® ) or Cisco NX-OS mode. Cisco ACI is a holistic, intent-driven architecture with centralized automation and policy-based application profiles. It provides a robust transport network for dynamic workloads and is built on a network fabric that combines time-tested protocols with new innovations to create a highly flexible, scalable, and resilient architecture of low-latency, high-bandwidth links. This fabric delivers a network that can support the most demanding and flexible data center environments. Designed for the programmable network, the Cisco NX-OS operating system automates configuration and management for customers who want to take advantage of the DevOps operation model and tool sets.

With optimized efficiency, simplified operation and installation, and a wide array of device versatility, the Cisco Nexus 93108TC-FX3P Switch provides investment protection for customers in an ever-changing data-centric and increasingly connected market. The expansive feature set includes 40MB of intelligent buffering, support for voice VLANs, and a full-featured Layer 2 and Layer 3 Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC).
