Overview

Overview

The Cisco Nexus 9358GY-FXP switch (N9K-C9358GY-FXP) is a 2-RU, fixed-port switch designed for deployment in data centers. This switch has eight 100-Megabit/1-Gigabit BASE-T ports and two 1/10/25-Gigabit SFP28 ports. Ports 1-8 support PoE/PoE+ which are software configurable.

To determine which transceivers, adapters, and cables this switch supports, see the Cisco Transceiver Modules Compatibility Information document.


Note

This switch is supported on second-generation NX-OS mode switches only.

Note

The baseline memory utilization of this switch is about 80%. This is expected behavior.

Note

Due to the limited number of SFP ports on this switch, we suggest that you connect the APIC to another leaf switch within your fabric, if possible.

The following figure shows the hardware features seen from the port side of the chassis.
