Cisco Nexus 93180YC-EX with 8 QSFP-40G-SR-BD | Data Center Switch — CON-PSUT-N9KC932T

Move dense server traffic through a fabric built for modern data center demands. The Cisco Nexus 93180YC-EX with 8 QSFP-40G-SR-BD combines 48 10/25 GbE ports with 8 40 GbE uplinks, giving infrastructure teams the port density and uplink headroom needed for leaf-spine architectures, virtualization clusters, and storage-heavy workloads. This platform is designed for environments where oversubscription, latency, and operational consistency matter. The 93180YC-EX class of switching supports high-throughput east-west traffic patterns while preserving the control needed for segmented networks and scalable growth. The included 40 GbE optics help simplify uplink planning and reduce the friction of sourcing compatible transceivers separately. For teams standardizing on Cisco in the data center, this bundle offers a practical path to expand capacity without stepping down to lower-density hardware that can constrain future design choices. It is a strong fit for organizations that need a switch with enough access ports to serve dense racks, plus uplinks sized for aggregation and fabric expansion. Ideal For Leaf-spine access layer for virtualized data center racks Aggregation switch for storage and compute clusters High-density top-of-rack deployment in enterprise data centers Fabric edge for east-west traffic in multi-tier environments Why This Product 1 Higher port density than entry-level top-of-rack switches 2 40 GbE uplinks support cleaner fabric expansion 3 Better fit for leaf-spine designs than access-only switches 4 Bundled optics reduce transceiver sourcing complexity
