Overview
The Cisco 8808-FC0 is the switch fabric card for the Cisco 8808 chassis. It provides the high bandwidth switching capacity needed to interconnect the line cards installed in the chassis. The 8808-FC0 uses the latest Cisco Silicon One Q200 ASICs to deliver up to 230.4 Tbps of total switching capacity when the 8808 chassis is fully loaded.
The Cisco 8808-FC0 chassis can support up to 8 line cards. It utilizes 8 fabric cards in a 7+1 redundant configuration to supply enough bandwidth for all ports on the line cards to operate at line rate speeds concurrently. The fabric cards are hot swappable and redundant to ensure maximum uptime.
