With the growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), new and innovative applications are emerging. As a result, data and the necessity to deliver and store it at higher speeds is growing exponentially. Don't be challenged by unpredictable data growth and proliferating data centers. Be ready, with Cisco Nexus 9500 Series modular switches.

The Cisco Nexus 9500 Series modular switch leads the industry with such innovations as a no-backplane chassis design. This feature alone enables the Nexus 9500 to support speeds ranging from 1G to 400G in the same chassis with common equipment. This allows for support of a wide variety of deployment scenarios, such as:

• Modular spine in intent-based Cisco ACI deployments
• Modular spine and leaf in VXLAN deployments
• Modular Cisco Data Center Interconnect (DCI) with deep-buffer -R portfolio
• Modular aggregation/core in traditional three-tier architectures

With unprecedented scale and high availability, including N+1 Power, the Cisco Nexus 9500 Series modular switch continues to deliver enriched benefits for any deployment. The choice of mixing different speed ports on the same chassis is key to collapsed access/aggregation deployments, and a wide range of line cards are uniquely positioned to address this space.
