Cisco Nexus 56128P 2RU Chassis 48x10G SFP, 4x40G QSFP | Data Center — CON-L1NBD-C9407R9D

Build a compact switching layer for data center environments that still demand serious port density. This Cisco Nexus 56128P chassis provides 48 x 10G SFP ports and 4 x 40G QSFP ports in a 2RU footprint, giving infrastructure teams a practical balance of access capacity and uplink bandwidth. That combination matters when you are supporting virtualization clusters, storage networks, or server farms where 10G remains the operational standard but uplink congestion can quickly become a bottleneck. The chassis format also gives you a more substantial platform than a basic fixed access switch, which is useful when rack space is tight but performance expectations are not. For procurement teams, this model sits in the category of infrastructure that earns its cost through density and longevity. It is not about adding ports for the sake of it. It is about preserving rack space, keeping cabling manageable, and supporting a network design that can absorb growth without forcing a premature refresh. In environments where uptime, port consistency, and clean aggregation matter, this Cisco Nexus chassis is a serious fit. Ideal For Top-of-rack switching for 10G server deployments Aggregation for virtualization clusters and storage networks Compact data center refresh where rack space is limited High-density access layer in enterprise server rooms Why This Product 1 Higher 10G access density than small fixed-port switches 2 More compact than larger chassis platforms 3 Better uplink capacity than basic access switches 4 Well suited to rack-constrained data center deployments
