Cisco C9500-32C-E Catalyst 9500 32x 100GB QSFP28 Front-to-Back Airflow Switch

Overview

The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series switches are designed to reimagine connections, reinforce security, and redefine the experience for hybrid workforces, both big and small The Catalyst 9500 Series, including the Catalyst 9500X models, continues to shape the future with continued innovation that helps you reimagine connections, reinforce security and redefine the experience for your hybrid workforce big and small. Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series switches based on Cisco Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) are Cisco’s lead fixed enterprise core and aggregation switching platform and as part of the Catalyst 9000 family, are built to transform your network to handle a hybrid world where the workplace is anywhere, endpoints could be anything, and applications are hosted all over the place.The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series represents the next generation of enterprise-class core and aggregation layer switches. These switches are designed to handle a hybrid world where workplaces can be anywhere, endpoints could be anything, and applications are hosted all over the placeCisco Catalyst 9500X switch based on Cisco Silicon One Q200 ASIC is purpose built for the next generation core with a programmable pipeline (P4) and is the first network silicon to offer switching capacity up to 12.8 Tbps full duplex in the enterprise. The Q200 ASIC offers high-performance along with full routing and switching capabilities without external memories. This is enabled by internal architecture that includes an on-chip High Bandwidth Memory (HBM). The Catalyst 9500X switch leverages a high- performance multiple core x86 CPU, and is Cisco’s leading purpose-built fixed core and edge services enterprise switching platform, built for security, IoT, and cloud.Cisco Catalyst 9500X switch is the industry’s first purpose-built fixed 10, 25, 50, 40, 100, 200 and 400 Gigabit Ethernet switch targeted for the enterprise campus. The Catalyst 9500X switch delivers unmatched forwarding scale (MAC addresses, IP unicast and multicast routes, MPLS labels) and deep buffering for enterprise applications. The Catalyst 9500X models includes non-blocking 50 Gigabit Ethernet Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP-56) and non-blocking 400 Gigabit Ethernet Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Double Density (QSFP-DD) ports.
