N3K-C3016-BA-L3
Nexus 3016, AC, Reversed Airflow (port side intake), Base and LAN Ent Lic Bundle
The Cisco N3K-C3016-BA-L3 Bundle provides the reversed airflow Nexus 3016Q-40GE low latency switch with full Layer 3 routing capabilities enabled through bundled licenses.
N3K-C3016-BA-L3 Overview
The Cisco Nexus 3016-BA-L3 is a bundle offering that combines the Nexus 3016Q-40GE switch hardware with advanced Layer 3 licenses. The Cisco N3K-C3016-BA-L3 provides a fully featured 1RU 40GbE switch optimized for latency-sensitive financial trading environments.
The key difference from the 3016-FA-L3 bundle is that the Cisco N3K-C3016-BA-L3 bundle includes the -B model of the Nexus 3016Q-40GE, which supports reversed airflow. This allows flexibility for installing in racks with rear-to-front cooling designs.
Like the -FA bundle, the Cisco N3K-C3016-BA-L3 bundle includes licenses for routing protocols like OSPF, EIGRP, BGP as well as key features like ECMP, VRF and advanced QoS capabilities. The complete L3 feature set enables low latency routing combined with hardware optimized for financial data centers.
