Testimonials for Cisco Nexus 5000 Series
The following is what industry experts, customers and partners from leading companies are saying about
Cisco Nexus
™
5000 Series Switches:
Awards:
“…At the end of my evaluation, I tend to think of the Nexus 5020 and of FCoE as a whole—which they are, because
at the moment there is no other switch that lets you implement the new protocol. However, even if I break apart the
two, each piece has merits of its own. I like the unified view that FCoE brings to network transport and I like the
speed and feather-light impact that the Nexus 5020 brings to that union.”
Mario Apicella, InfoWorld
“The Cisco Nexus 5000 brings a completely new technology to network consolidation that blends together Ethernet
and FC transport with a single protocol fluent in both languages. That combination makes the switch a flexible player
that can be deployed in both servers and storage consolidation projects. With a price that drubs the competition, a
small 2RU form factor, great scalability, and unrivaled speed and latency, the Nexus 5000 is poised to take on all
challengers in the space.”

Massachusetts Institute of Technology
"The Massachusetts Institute of Technology deployed the Cisco Nexus platform to help virtualize our data center and
to consolidate numerous departmental data centers throughout the campus. We gained 10 Gigabit Ethernet
performance, and reduced cost by conserving space, power and cooling."
Theresa Regan, Director of Operations and Infrastructure Services, MIT
The Planet
“After reviewing technologies, we selected the Nexus 5000 for its high-performance switch fabric capabilities and its
ability to provide significant capital expenditures savings. Using the Cisco Nexus 5000 as a foundation, and with
Cisco's data center expertise, we've developed a more efficient and future-proofed 10 Gigabit Ethernet data center
architecture that will serve as a model as we expand our facilities and data center managed service offerings. With
the Nexus 5000, we….decreased bandwidth cost per server by 30 percent”
William Charnock, Vice President of Technology, The Planet
