Description

Blade-chassis fabric extender for Fujitsu systems, providing high-density 10Gb connectivity to server blades and uplink aggregation to a parent Nexus switch. Managed entirely by the parent switch for simplified operations, it delivers low-latency 10Gb host interfaces and flexible SFP+ uplinks. This -F bundle includes 16x FET-10G SFP+ for FEX-to-parent switch links. Ideal for consolidating edge connectivity in data centers while keeping policy and control at the aggregation layer.

Features

- Single point of management through the parent Nexus switch
- High-density 16x10Gb downlinks for blade servers
- Flexible 8x10Gb SFP+ uplinks with port-channel resiliency
- Low-latency forwarding optimized for data center workloads
- Investment protection with SFP+ optics and FET-10G support
- Operational simplicity by centralizing policy and control at aggregation

FAQs

Q: Is this a standalone switch?
A: No. It is a fabric extender that operates under a parent Nexus switch and is not managed standalone.

Q: What is included in the -F bundle?
A: Sixteen FET-10G SFP+ transceivers for FEX-to-parent connections are included.

Q: Which parent switches are supported?
A: Compatible with Cisco Nexus platforms that support Fabric Extenders (e.g., Nexus 5K/6K/7K; check specific software/compatibility matrix).

Q: Does it support PoE?
A: No. PoE is not supported on this data center fabric extender.

Q: Can it use standard SFP+ SR/LR optics?
A: Yes, standard 10GBASE-SR/LR SFP+ optics are typically supported on uplinks; verify in the platform release notes.

Q: Does it support FCoE?
A: FCoE is supported when enabled and supported by the parent switch and server adapters; confirm in the compatibility guide.
