The Cisco Nexus 2248PQ 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fabric Extender is the newest member of the Cisco Nexus Fabric Extender Family. It supports high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments and has 48 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ host ports and 4 QSFP+ fabric ports (16 x 10 GE fabric ports). QSFP+ connectivity simplifies cabling while lowering power and solution cost. The Cisco Nexus 2248PQ 10GE Fabric Extender supports FCoE and a set of network technologies known collectively as Data Center Bridging (DCB) that increase the reliability, efficiency, and scalability of Ethernet networks. These features allow support for multiple traffic classes over a lossless Ethernet fabric, thus enabling consolidation of LAN, storage area network (SAN), and cluster environments.
