N3K-C3524P-10G is the Cisco Nexus 3524P entry configuration. Cisco states that it uses the Nexus 3548 chassis with 24 ports enabled and can be upgraded to use all 48 ports. It must remain distinct from the later N3K-C3524P-10GX and N3K-C3524P-XL orders.
The active interfaces are 24 fixed SFP+ ports supporting 1 or 10 Gbps. Cisco specifies 480 Gbps switching capacity and a forwarding rate of 360 million packets per second for the Nexus 3524 configuration.
The 1RU platform uses dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies and four individually replaceable redundant fans. Expanding to 48 active ports requires the applicable upgrade entitlement; the base PID must not be represented as 48 ports already enabled. Optics, cables, airflow and power-supply variants also require separate verification.
Confirm the exact -10G PID, the number of licensed ports, installed NX-OS release, airflow direction, power modules and transceivers. The similarly named -10GX and -XL products have different hardware or memory generations and are not interchangeable descriptions.
