N9K-C9372TX Overview
The Cisco Nexus 9372TX (N9K-C9372TX) is a 1RU, fixed-configuration switch designed for top-of-rack and middle-of-row deployments in data centers. It provides high-density 10GBASE-T server connectivity with 40GbE uplinks.
With 48 10GBASE-T ports and 6 QSFP+ ports, the Cisco N9K-C9372TX can operate at line-rate speeds for maximum throughput. The switch uses a cut-through, non-blocking architecture to deliver consistent microseconds of latency. Dual hot-swappable power supplies and fans provide redundancy and flexibility.
The Cisco N9K-C9372TX runs on Cisco NX-OS, an enterprise-class network operating system built with modularity, resiliency and programmability. NX-OS provides extensive features for performance, virtualization, automation, and analytics.
