CISCO N9K-C9332D-H2R NEXUS 9300 SERIES W 32P 400G W HBM

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) applications are being used increasingly in today's data centers, and the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches have the hardware and software capabilities to provide the right latency, congestion-management mechanisms, and telemetry to meet the requirements of those applications. The Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches address the need for high-performance, power-efficient, compact switching in the networking infrastructure, designed to support 400G fabrics for next-generation leaf and spine designs.

Large-cloud and data-center networking teams require a flexible, reliable solution that efficiently manages, troubleshoots, and analyzes their IT infrastructure. In addition, they need security, automation, visibility, analytics, and assurance. Managed by the operations and automation platform Cisco Nexus Dashboard with services such as Cisco Nexus Dashboard Insights for visibility and Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller for automation, Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches are ideal platforms to build a high-performance AI/ML network fabric.

The Cisco Nexus 9332D-H2R Switch introduces the first switch with deep-buffer capability to the Nexus 9000 fixed-switch portfolio. The switch is built with backward-compatible 400G optical interface Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable-Double Density (QSFP-DD) ports to migrate existing data center fabrics from 40-Gbps and 100-Gbps speeds to 400 Gbps; it also offers various lower port speeds and densities, including 10, 25, 40, 50, 100, and 200 Gbps, using breakouts. The Cisco Nexus 9332D-H2R Switch is based on Cisco^® Cloud Scale technology equipped to support next-generation cloud architecture.

The Cisco Nexus 9332D-H2R is a 1-Rack-Unit (1RU) 32-port 400 Gigabit Ethernet switch that supports 25.6 Tbps of bandwidth. The switch provides 80MB of on-die packet buffer and 8GB of high bandwidth memory (or HBM) with MACsec capability on all 32 ports.

The Cisco Nexus 9332D-H2R supports the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) with Class C timing accuracy for telecom as well as media profiles. Through PTP and Synchronous Ethernet, it delivers frequency and time distribution with high accuracy.
