Cisco Nexus 5548 UP Chassis, 32 10GbE Ports, 2 PS | Enterprise — CON-L14HR-ASR1AVC

Keep critical network traffic moving with a chassis designed for high-density 10GbE switching. The Cisco Nexus 5548 UP chassis provides 32 10GbE ports, giving infrastructure teams the port count needed for access, aggregation, and server connectivity in space-constrained environments. Dual power supplies and dual fans add the redundancy expected in production networks, helping maintain service continuity when hardware components need maintenance or replacement. That matters in environments where a single interruption can affect application performance, storage access, or virtualization clusters. This platform fits teams standardizing on Cisco switching and looking for a chassis that supports disciplined growth without overbuilding the rack. It is a practical choice when you need more than basic connectivity: you need predictable density, operational resilience, and a foundation that can support demanding enterprise traffic patterns. Ideal For Top-of-rack connectivity for virtualized server clusters Aggregation layer switching in enterprise data centers High-density 10GbE uplink deployment for storage and compute networks Redundant switching foundation for production infrastructure Why This Product 1 Higher port density than entry-level access switches 2 Redundant power and cooling for production uptime 3 Better suited to enterprise aggregation than small-office switching 4 Designed for dense 10GbE environments rather than basic gigabit access
