FAQs

Q: How many ports are active by default on the N9K-C93108TC-FX3H?
A: The switch ships with 24 ports licensed for use out of the 48 total physical ports. You can expand to use all 48 ports by purchasing the N9K-FX3-24P-UPG= port expansion license.

Q: What speeds are supported on the downlink ports?
A: The 48 multispeed RJ-45 downlink ports support 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 Gbps, allowing flexible connectivity for servers and appliances with varying speed requirements.

Q: Can this switch be used in both NX-OS and ACI environments?
A: Yes, the N9K-C93108TC-FX3H supports both NX-OS standalone mode for traditional data center deployments and Cisco ACI mode for software-defined networking environments. Note that NX-OS 10.3.1 or later is required for FX3H switches.

Q: What licensing is required to operate this switch?
A: The switch requires a minimum of the Network Essentials license package to enable basic LAN features. Advanced licenses such as Network Advantage can be purchased separately to enable features like VXLAN/EVPN, advanced telemetry, and additional Layer 3 capabilities.

Q: Is this switch suitable for top-of-rack deployment in data centers?
A: Absolutely. The N9K-C93108TC-FX3H is designed as a compact 1RU top-of-rack switch ideal for data centers requiring high-density multispeed copper server connectivity and high-bandwidth 40/100G uplinks to aggregation or spine switches.
