Cisco Catalyst 2 Ports Fabric Module. This is a Cisco Catalyst 2 Ports Fabric Module that is used in conjunction with the Catalyst 6500 series switches. This module provides additional connectivity options and bandwidth for the switch, as well as supporting various networking protocols. The hot-swappable feature of this part ensures that the network stays up and running even if the module needs to be replaced. This helps to ensure high availability and minimizes downtime.
This Cisco Nexus 9500 platform is designed as a Clos fabric that interconnects each line card directly with each rear-mounted fabric module. All traffic between the line cards is load balanced across all fabric modules providing optimal bandwidth distribution within the chassis. This load-balancing capability provides enhanced system reliability and redundancy.
Cisco Nexus 7700 6-Slot Fabric Module switch managed. The Cisco Nexus 7700 6-Slot switch chassis has two supervisor slots, four I/O module slots, dual-side integrated cable management, four power supply bays, and front door with an air filter on the front of the chassis. On the back, it has three system fan trays and six fabric slots behind the fan trays.
Cisco Nexus 7700 6-Slot Switch Fabric Module. The combination of the Cisco Nexus 7700 fabric module, the supervisor and I/O modules supports the virtual output queue (VOQ) feature and credit-based arbitration to the crossbar switch to increase the performance and efficiency of the distributed forwarding system. VOQ and credit-based arbitration facilitate fair sharing of resources when a speed mismatch or contention for an uplink interface exists.
