Cisco Nexus 5672UP 1RU 32x10G SFP 6x40G QSFP | Data Center Switch — CON-L1NBD-7X9B2S2E

Move dense server and storage traffic through a compact 1RU footprint with the Cisco Nexus 5672UP. Its 32x10G SFP ports and 6x40G QSFP uplinks are built for data center aggregation, leaf-spine fabrics, and high-bandwidth east-west traffic patterns where port density matters. The platform also includes 16pxUP SFP capability, giving infrastructure teams flexibility when mapping uplinks and access connections across mixed environments. This switch fits environments that need more than basic connectivity. It is suited to teams standardizing on Cisco Nexus for operational consistency, predictable performance, and a cleaner path to fabric expansion. The port mix supports dense server attachment while preserving higher-speed uplink capacity for oversubscription control and traffic segmentation. For organizations comparing entry-level switching to a more capable fabric node, the value is in density, uplink headroom, and rack efficiency. The 1RU form factor helps preserve space in crowded rows, while the 10G and 40G mix supports modern application tiers without forcing an early redesign of the network core. Ideal For Top-of-rack aggregation for dense virtualized server racks Leaf-spine fabric deployment in enterprise data centers High-throughput uplink switching for storage and compute clusters Rack consolidation where 1RU density is a priority Why This Product 1 Higher port density than basic access switches 2 40G uplinks support stronger aggregation headroom 3 1RU footprint preserves rack space 4 Cisco Nexus platform fits fabric-oriented deployments
