The Cisco Nexus 2248TP-E is a 1 Gigabit Ethernet fabric extender with enhancements targeting large-volume databases, distributed storage, and video editing workloads. It supports 48 100/1000BASE-T host facing ports and four 10 Gigabit Ethernet fabric interfaces. These fabric extenders behave like remote line cards for a parent Cisco Nexus switch and form a distributed modular system with the parent switch.
