Two power supplies (hot swappable, 1+1) and four fans (hot swappable, 3+1) insert
into the front of the chassis with front-to-back cooling. Server-facing ports are at
the rear of the chassis to simplify connections to servers and fabric extenders. Serial
and management ports are provided at the front of the chassis for easy access at

Cisco UCS 6332-16UP Fabric Interconnect
The Cisco UCS 6332-16UP 40-Port Fabric Interconnect is a 1RU 40 Gigabit Ethernet
and FCoE interconnect offering up to 2.43-Gbps throughput with 40 ports (Figure 5).
The switch has 24 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE ports and 16 unified ports.
• The switch offers two high-availability ports for interconnection with a paired
and FCoE interconnect offering up to 2.43-Gbps throughput with 40 ports (Figure 5).
The switch has 24 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE ports and 16 unified ports.
• The switch offers two high-availability ports for interconnection with a paired
Cisco UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnect, and it supports a total of 24 x 40-
Gbps fixed Ethernet and FCoE ports.
Gbps fixed Ethernet and FCoE ports.
• Eighteen of the 40-Gps QSFP+ ports operate at 40 Gbps. These ports also can
be converted to four 10-Gbps ports by inserting a QSFP–to–4 x SFP breakout
cable or QSA module, yielding a total of up to 72 x 10-Gbps SFP+ ports.
cable or QSA module, yielding a total of up to 72 x 10-Gbps SFP+ ports.
• Sixteen Cisco UCS unified ports (UP) offer 10- and 40-Gbps unified fabric
through SFP+ connections or 4-, 8-, or 16-Gbps Fibre Channel connections.
• Six additional 40-Gps QSFP+ ports operate at 40-Gbps speed or at 10-Gbps
with a QSA module.
