Description
Cisco N6004-B-24Q Technical Overview
The Cisco N6004-B-24Q is a high-density, fixed-configuration switch module designed to expand the port capacity of the Cisco Nexus 6004 chassis. This expansion module provides 24 ports of 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, facilitating high-bandwidth aggregation in data center environments. By integrating the N6004-B-24Q into the existing Nexus 6004 architecture, engineers can achieve significant scalability for spine-leaf topologies. The unit leverages the robust switching fabric of the base chassis to maintain consistent performance across all expanded interfaces.
Engineered for mission-critical deployments, the N6004-B-24Q supports advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching protocols required for modern virtualization. It utilizes a modular design that allows for rapid installation and maintenance within the host chassis. This hardware ensures that high-performance compute clusters receive the necessary throughput to handle intensive traffic loads. The N6004-B-24Q effectively bridges the gap between high-density access requirements and core switching capabilities.
