N9K-C9236C identifies the Cisco Nexus 9236C, a fixed 1-RU high-density switch in the Nexus 9200 platform. Cisco documents 36 QSFP28 ports supporting 100/50/40/25/10/1G modes with supported adapters and breakout. Optional modules, optics, cables, licenses and support are included only when explicitly itemized.
For each QSFP28 position, document native speed, adapter or breakout, FEC, optic and peer. Cisco describes multiple speed modes, but valid combinations depend on supported adapters, cables and software. A breakout inventory should preserve parent-port relationships so changes do not disable sibling lanes. The platform has passed its support endpoint, so record known software and interoperability risks, a 9336C-FX2 migration design and the exact ports that can be transitioned without recabling.
Test native 100G and every intended lower-speed adapter/breakout mode, verify FEC and optical diagnostics, then retain the unsupported-platform approval.
Cisco identifies this platform as end of support and recommends migration to Nexus 9336C-FX2; require a formal exception for continued use.
