Key Features
Cisco Nexus 2232PP 10GE Fabric Extender provides a cost-effective, high-density, and low-latency top-of-rack solution for modern data centers.
With 32 × 10 Gigabit Ethernet host ports and 8 × 10GE uplinks, it extends the parent Nexus switch fabric, operating as a remote line card rather than an independent switch.
This architecture simplifies management by centralizing policy, security, and QoS configurations at the parent Nexus switch.
The 2232PP supports virtual PortChannel (vPC) for dual-homed redundancy, ensuring high availability in mission-critical environments.
Designed for cloud, virtualization, and enterprise data centers, the Nexus 2232PP enables efficient server connectivity, reduced cabling complexity, and seamless scalability.
👉 No, it operates as a Fabric Extender (FEX) and requires a Nexus parent switch.
