The 24 unified ports provide 16-, 8-. 4-, and 2-Gbps Fibre Channel as well as 10 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE

connectivity options. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP-16G also offers 6 ports of 40 Gbps using QSFP transceivers

for Ethernet and FCoE support. The Cisco Nexus 5672UP-16G has three fan modules and two power

supplies and supports VXLAN in bridging and routing modes on all ports at line rate, enabling the migration

of virtual machines between servers across Layer 3 networks. The switch also offers 128 buffer-to-buffer

credits, helping provide SAN extension of up to 16 kilometers at 16-Gbps Fibre Channel speeds.

The Cisco Nexus 5672UP-16G platform is constructed with the components shown in Figure 4. The Cisco Nexus

5672UP-16G has two 1+1 redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and three hot-swappable independent fans

with support for 2+1 redundancy.

The Cisco Nexus 5672UP-16G supports both port-side intake (red handle) and fan-side intake (blue handle) airflow

options for flexible mounting.

Cisco Nexus 56128P Switch

The Cisco Nexus 56128P Switch (Figure 5) is a 2RU switch that supports 2.56 Tbps of bandwidth across 48 fixed 1

and 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports and four 40-Gbps QSFP+ ports. The 48 ports on the base chassis support 10

Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE. The 4 QSFP ports support 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE.

The Cisco Nexus 56128P also offers two slots for a generic expansion module (GEM). The GEM (Figure 6) for the

Cisco Nexus 56128P provides 24 SFP+ ports for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE or 2-, 4-, and 8-Gbps Fibre

Channel, and 2 QSFP+ ports for 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE. The expansion module supports native 40 Gigabit

Ethernet on the QSFP+ ports. The GEM is supported on the Cisco Nexus 56128P chassis only and can be

populated in either of the two expansion slots.
