The Cisco ONE Nexus N5696-B-24Q 5696Q chassis is a 4RU 10 and 40 Gigabit Ethernet switch with the industry’s highest port density. Its compact, energy-efficient form factor offers eight line-card expansion-module (LEM) slots to support 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE, 10 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE, and 8/4/2-Gbps Fibre Channel, making it the most versatile switch in the Cisco One Nexus 5600 platform. The Cisco ONE Nexus N5696-B-24Q 5696Q chassis supports 7.68 Tbps of bandwidth across 96 ports of 40 Gbps when fully loaded.The Cisco ONE Nexus N5696-B-24Q 5696Q chassis expansion modules offer multiple interface options with the chassis base. The Cisco ONE Nexus N5696-B-24Q 5696Q chassis supports a 40 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet LEM with QSFP+ optics. Each 40 Gigabit Ethernet expansion module provides 12 ports of 40 Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE ports using a QSFP interface, or 48 ports of 10 Gbps using breakout cables. With all eight expansion modules installed, The Cisco ONE Nexus N5696-B-24Q 5696Q chassis delivers 96 ports of QSFP or 384 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+) using breakout cables. All expansion modules are hot swappable.
