The Cisco Nexus 9372TX-E is a minor hardware revision of the Cisco Nexus 9372TX. The Cisco Nexus 9372TX and 9372TX-E Switches are 1RU switches that support 1.44 Tbps of bandwidth and over 1150 mpps across 48 fixed 10-Gbps BASE-T ports and 6 fixed 40-Gbps QSFP+ ports (Figure 3).


They are Layer 2 and 3 nonblocking 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet switches with up to 2.56 terabits per second (Tbps) of internal bandwidth. The Cisco Nexus 9300 platform consists of fixed-port switches designed for top-of-rack (ToR) and middle-of-row (MoR) deployment in data centers that support enterprise applications, service provider hosting, and cloud computing environments. The Cisco Nexus® 9000 Series Switches include both modular and fixed-port switches that are designed to overcome these challenges with a flexible, agile, low-cost, application-centric infrastructure. IT infrastructure that supports this model must scale with the speed of business and support both 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Applications have been transitioning over time to a less monolithic, scale-out, multinode model. With organizations deploying a mix of custom, open-source, and off-the-shelf commercial applications, IT departments must manage both security and quality of service (QoS) for environments that support multitenancy. IT departments have to provide shared IT infrastructure to address time-to-market needs and to increase their return on investment (ROI). Business units demand accelerated application deployments. As a result, the provisioning, modification, and removal of application network connectivity needs to be dynamic as well.

Application instances are created dynamically. Application workloads are deployed across a mix of virtualized and nonvirtualized server and storage infrastructure, requiring a network infrastructure that provides consistent connectivity, security, and visibility across a range of bare-metal, virtualized, and cloud computing environments: Organizations everywhere recognize that changing application environments are creating new demands for the IT infrastructure that supports them.

Basic switching RJ-45 Ethernet ports type: 10G Ethernet (100/1000/10000), Basic switching RJ-45 Ethernet ports quantity: 48.
