Built on the latest Cisco®Cloud Scale technology, the Cisco Nexus®9200 platform consists of industry-leading ultra-high-density fixed-configuration data center switches with line-rate Layer 2 and 3 features that support enterprise and commercial applications, service provider hosting, and cloud computing environments. These switches support a wide range of port speeds with flexible combinations of 1/10/25/40/50/100-Gbps connectivity in compact form factors. Using the widely deployed industry-leading Cisco NX-OS Software operating system, the Cisco Nexus 9200 platform is designed for programmable fabric, which offers flexibility, mobility, and scale for service providers and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and cloud providers. It is also designed for the programmable network, which automates configuration and management for customers who want to take advantage of the DevOps operation model and tool sets. The Cisco Nexus 9236C Switch is a 1RU switch that supports 7.2 Tbps of bandwidth and over 5.3 bpps across 36 100-Gbps QSFP28 ports. Each of the ports on the 9236C can be individually configured into 1x100Gbps, 1 x 40 Gbps, 4 x 10/25 Gbps, 2 x 50 Gbps or 1 x 1/10 Gbps using QSA adapter. It provides industry’s best density and flexibility needed for data center spine or aggregation connectivity, in a compact form factor.
