Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches (N3K)

Sourcing mission-critical hardware shouldn't mean gambling on auction sites or automated shopping carts. You get direct access to dedicated specialists who answer the phone, confirm exact compatibility, and deliver project-ready pricing built around your deployment timeline.

Two top-of-rack lines make up this Cisco Nexus 3000 Series page: the Nexus 3048 and the Nexus 3064 in its X, T and 32T forms. Other Nexus 3000 models are outside this page. Both lines are 1RU fixed switches running NX-OS, with two redundant power supplies, one fan tray with redundant fans and one I/O module holding the management, console and USB flash ports. Each has 128,000 MAC addresses, 4096 VLANs, 9 MB of shared buffer, 2 GB of boot flash and jumbo frames up to 9216 bytes.

The N3K-C3048TP-1GE has 48 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 ports and four 1/10 Gbps SFP+ uplinks, with 176 Gbps of switching capacity and a forwarding rate of 132 mpps. Typical power is 120 W with both supplies fitted. The 3048 takes AC supplies at 100 to 240 VAC or DC supplies at -40 to -72 VDC, and the fan modules are N3K-C3048-FAN for port-side exhaust and N3K-C3048-FAN-B for port-side intake.

The 3064 family reaches 1.28 Tbps of switching capacity at 950 mpps. The N3K-C3064PQ-10GX is the 3064-X, with 48 SFP+ ports running at 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 4 QSFP+ ports that each run as 4 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet or 40 Gigabit Ethernet. The N3K-C3064TQ-10GT is the 3064-T, with 48 10GBASE-T ports in place of the SFP+ ports, and the N3K-C3064TQ-32T has 32 10GBASE-T ports, extended by the N3064T-16T-UPG= 16-port upgrade license. The 3064-X has redundant supplies on AC and DC, and the 3064-T and 32T are redundant on AC. NXA-PAC-500W is the 500 W AC supply for the 3064-T.

The N2200-PAC-400W is the N2K/3K 400 W AC supply with port-side exhaust airflow, the -B form reverses it to port-side intake, and N2200-PDC-400W is the matching DC supply. Layer 3 routing needs a Base license, N3K-C3048-BAS1K9 on the 3048 and N3K-BAS1K9 on the 3064, with LAN Enterprise added on top. Related families are the Cisco Nexus 5000, Cisco Nexus 7000 and Cisco Nexus 9000 pages, Cisco Nexus is the broad page, and the Cisco switch category holds more. The networking page covers the rest.
