Cisco Nexus 56128P 2RU Chassis, 48x10G SFP, 4x40G QSFP | Enterprise — CON-ECMUS-C1F212EX

Build a fabric edge that keeps pace with modern application traffic. The Cisco Nexus 56128P chassis delivers a 2RU form factor with 48 x 10G SFP ports and 4 x 40G QSFP uplinks, giving infrastructure teams a dense switching platform for aggregation, top-of-rack, or leaf-spine deployments. This chassis is designed for environments where port density and rack efficiency directly affect design cost. The 10G access layer supports high-throughput server connectivity, while the 40G QSFP uplinks provide headroom for upstream bandwidth and fabric expansion. That balance matters in enterprise data centers that need predictable scaling without consuming excess rack space. For architects and procurement teams, the value is in the fit: a compact chassis that supports high-density connectivity while preserving room for growth. It is a practical choice when the network design must support current workloads and leave clear paths for future expansion. Ideal For Deploying top-of-rack switching in a dense data center row Building leaf-spine fabric connectivity for enterprise workloads Aggregating high-speed server links in a compact chassis Adding uplink capacity for a growing virtualized environment Why This Product 1 Higher port density than smaller access switches 2 More uplink headroom with 40G QSFP ports 3 Compact 2RU footprint for rack efficiency 4 Better fit for fabric designs than fixed low-density switches
