Overview
The Cisco UCS 6536 Fabric Interconnect is a 1U top-of-domain switch that provides unified network, storage, and management connectivity for Cisco UCS X-Series and C-Series systems. It offers 36 ports: 32 40/100G QSFP-DD Ethernet ports plus 4 unified ports that support 40/100G Ethernet or break out to 8/16/32G Fibre Channel. Acting as the single point of policy-driven control, it concentrates LAN, SAN, and management traffic into one converged infrastructure. The 6536 integrates with Cisco Intersight and UCS Manager for end-to-end automation.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the Cisco UCS 6536 Fabric Interconnect (UCS-FI-6536-D-U) cost?
Uniqcli sells the UCS-FI-6536-D-U for $18,732.80 against a Cisco list price of $27,103.85. Add it to your cart and submit to confirm current pricing, stock, and lead time. Lower pricing is available for volume orders, Government Purchase Card (GPC) buys, and emergency or urgent acquisitions. Free US shipping on orders over $2,500.00.
Is the UCS-FI-6536-D-U TAA compliant and available for government and DoD buyers?
Often yes, but it depends on the unit. Cisco manufactures the UCS-FI-6536-D-U in several countries, so Trade Agreements Act (TAA) status varies by production lot. Uniqcli is an authorized Cisco partner: we confirm the country of origin before shipment, and if a given UCS-FI-6536-D-U is not TAA-designated, we will source a TAA-certified equivalent of the same model. Either way the result is DoDIN APL-ready procurement for US federal, DoD, state, local, education, healthcare, and enterprise buyers, with Government Purchase Card (GPC) acceptance and FAR-based urgent and emergency acquisition support. Request a TAA-compliant quote for the UCS-FI-6536-D-U and a specialist will confirm compliance, price, and lead time, usually within one business day.
Can I buy the UCS-FI-6536-D-U as a single unit or in volume?
Both. Order a single UCS-FI-6536-D-U through the cart, or ask about lower pricing for volume orders, Government Purchase Card (GPC) purchases, and emergency or urgent (FAR-based) acquisitions. There is no payment up front: we confirm availability and the final total before invoicing.
Where can I find the UCS-FI-6536-D-U datasheet and specifications?
The specifications section on this page lists the published specs for the UCS-FI-6536-D-U, including ports, power, and dimensions where Cisco publishes them. Ask us for the full Cisco datasheet and we will send the current PDF with your quote.
Need the UCS-FI-6536-D-U TAA-compliant for federal or DoD?
Cisco builds this model in multiple countries, so TAA status depends on the production lot. We confirm country of origin before shipment, and if a unit isn't TAA-designated, we'll quote a TAA-certified equivalent of the same model, DoDIN APL-ready and GPC-payable.
