Description

Cisco Nexus9332C Spine Switch Ghana

The Cisco Nexus9332C Ghana is the smallest form-factor 1-Rack-Unit (1RU) spine switch for Cisco ACI that supports 6.4 Tbps of bandwidth and 2.3 bpps across 32 fixed 40/100G QSFP28 ports and 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports. Breakout is not supported on ports 1 to 32. The last 8 ports marked in green support wire-rate MACsec encryption. Based on Cisco Cloud Scale technology, Cisco Nexus9332C Ghana supports cost-effective, ultra-high-density cloud-scale deployments, an increased number of endpoints, and cloud services with wire-rate security and telemetry. The platform is built on modern system-architecture designed to provide high performance and meet the evolving needs of highly scalable data centers and growing enterprises.

 The Cisco Nexus9332C Ghana is designed to support innovative technologies such as Media Access Control Security (MACsec), Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN), tunnel endpoint VTEP-to-VTEP overlay encryption, CloudSec and Streaming Statistics Export (SSX). MACsec is a security technology that allows traffic encryption at the physical layer and provides secure server, border leaf, and leaf-to-spine connectivity. SSX is hardware-based, consisting of a module that reads statistics from the ASIC and sends them to a remote server for analysis. Through this application, users can better understand network performance without any impact on the switch control plane or CPU
