Overview
Cisco MDS 9396T 32G 2 RU Fibre Channel Switch - 32 Gbit/s - 48 Fiber Channel Ports - Rack-mountable - 2U - Refurbished - 1 Year (part number DS-C9396T-48IK9-RF) is supplied by Uniqcli, an authorized Cisco partner, in the Cisco SAN Switches category. Compatible Rack Unit: 2U.
32 Gbit/s - 48 Fiber Channel Ports - Rack-mountable - 2U - Refurbished - 1 Year
• High performance: The MDS 9396T architecture, with centralized nonblocking arbitration, provides consistent 32-Gbps low-latency performance across all traffic conditions for every Fibre Channel port on the switch. • Capital Expenditure (CapEx) savings: The 32-Gbps ports allow users to deploy them on existing 16- or 8-Gbps transceivers, reducing initial CapEx and investment protection with an option to upgrade to 32-Gbps transceivers and adapters whenever needed. • Grow in-small increments: The MDS 9396T Fibre Channel Switch provides an option to deploy as few as 48 32-Gbps Fibre Channel ports in the entry-level variant, and then grow in increments of 16 ports to up to 96 ports. This allows four possible configurations of 48, 64, 80, and 96 ports. • Intelligent network services: Slow-drain detection and isolation, Virtual SAN (VSAN) identifier, Access Control Lists (ACLs) for hardware-based intelligent frame processing, smart zoning, and fabricwide Quality of Service (QoS) enable migration from SAN islands to enterprisewide storage networks. Traffic encryption is optionally available to meet stringent security requirements. • Sophisticated diagnostics: The MDS 9396T provides intelligent diagnostics tools such as Inter-Switch Link (ISL) diagnostics, HBA diagnostics with leading HBA vendors, read diagnostic parameters, protocol decoding, network analysis tools, and integrated Cisco Call Home capability for greater reliability, faster problem resolution
Key specifications: Compatible Rack Unit: 2U · Height: 3.4" mm · Width: 17.4" mm · Depth: 22.3" mm · Form Factor: Rack-mountable · Weight (Approximate): 41.62 lb g · Data Transfer Rate: 32 Gbit/s Bps · Limited Warranty: 1 Year Year.
