Cisco UCS-LIC-6300-40GC= 3rd Gen FI Per Port License | Enterprise — UCS-LIC-6300-40GC=

Control connectivity at the port level in Cisco UCS environments with a 3rd Gen Fabric Interconnect license designed for C-Direct-only use. This entitlement is built for teams that need exact licensing alignment to the fabric architecture, rather than broad or generalized access. Per-port licensing is valuable when infrastructure standards require clear mapping between physical ports and licensed capability. In dense UCS deployments, that precision helps procurement teams avoid overbuying while giving architects a clean way to activate only the connectivity needed for the design. It also supports more disciplined capacity planning, since each licensed port is tied to a specific operational purpose. This Cisco license is especially relevant where 3rd Gen Fabric Interconnects are used to connect C-Direct only, making it a targeted fit for environments that already know the intended topology. For enterprise buyers, that specificity matters: it reduces ambiguity in entitlement management and keeps licensing aligned with the actual hardware configuration. For technical teams, it provides a straightforward path to enable the required port function without introducing broader licensing scope than the deployment calls for.
