Description

The Cisco N3K-C3064PQ-10GX Nexus 3064-X is a high-performance 1RU data center switch designed for ultra-low latency applications such as high-frequency trading and top-of-rack deployments. It delivers 1.28 Tbps switching capacity and 950 Mpps forwarding rate with 48x 10G SFP+ ports and 4x QSFP+ uplinks supporting 40G or 4x10G breakout. Running Cisco NX-OS, it provides line-rate Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching with enhanced scale, comprehensive routing protocols, and flexible airflow options for power-efficient data center operations.

FAQs

Q: What deployment scenarios is the N3K-C3064PQ-10GX best suited for?
A: This switch is optimized for data center top-of-rack deployments requiring ultra-low latency, such as high-frequency trading environments, big data applications, and performance-critical workloads. It provides line-rate Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching with comprehensive routing protocols in a power-efficient 1RU design.

Q: Can the QSFP+ ports operate in breakout mode?
A: Yes, each of the 4x QSFP+ ports can operate in native 40 Gigabit Ethernet mode or can be configured in 4x10 Gigabit Ethernet breakout mode using appropriate breakout cables, providing flexible uplink and connectivity options.

Q: What licensing is required for the N3K-C3064PQ-10GX?
A: The switch requires a Cisco Nexus 3000 Base License (N3K-BAS1K9) for basic Layer 3 functionality. For advanced routing features including full unicast and multicast routing protocols like BGP, OSPF, and EIGRP, the LAN Enterprise License (N3K-LAN1K9) is required.

Q: Does this switch support stacking or virtualization?
A: The N3K-C3064PQ-10GX supports Cisco vPC (virtual PortChannel) for creating Layer 2 multipathing by allowing links connected to two separate switches to appear as a single PortChannel to a third device, providing high availability without traditional stacking.

Q: What airflow and power supply options are available?
A: The switch supports both forward airflow (port-side exhaust) and reverse airflow (port-side intake) configurations with redundant hot-swappable power supplies. Power options include 400W AC (100-240V) and DC inputs, with models designated by -B suffix for reverse airflow variants.
