The Cisco Nexus 2232TM-E 10GE Fabric Extender (FEX) is a high-performance, rack-mountable network extension module that simplifies data center connectivity by extending the capabilities of a parent Cisco Nexus switch. It offers 32 1/10-Gigabit Ethernet ports that connect back to a Nexus parent via high-speed uplinks, enabling scalable and low-latency port expansion without standalone management. Designed to operate seamlessly with Cisco’s Nexus series, the 2232TM-E helps reduce cabling complexity and centralizes control through the parent switch. Ideal for dense server access in data centers and virtualized environments, it improves port density while maintaining consistent performance and simplified operations across large network deployments.

Key Features:

32 1/10GE ports: High-density connectivity for rack servers and endpoints
Fabric extender design: Extends parent switch capacity without separate management
High-speed uplinks: Efficient connections to Nexus parent switches
Centralized control: Managed through the parent switch for simplicity
Low-latency performance: Ideal for data centers and virtualized workloads
Use Case: Expands port density in data center access layers, connects servers and virtual hosts, and simplifies large scale network infrastructure with centralized management

Description
Reviews (0)

The Cisco Nexus 2232TM-E 10GE Fabric Extender is a data center fabric extension module engineered to expand the port capacity and simplify the architecture of Cisco Nexus switch environments. As a fabric extender, the 2232TM-E acts as a remote line card that connects directly to a parent Cisco Nexus switch (such as Nexus 5500 or 5600 Series) using high-speed uplinks. It provides 32 host ports capable of 1/10-Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, allowing high port density for server access in modern, high-performance network infrastructures.

Fabric extenders simplify operational complexity by centralizing management and configuration on the parent switch rather than on each individual module. This architectural approach reduces cabling, minimizes configuration points, and streamlines switch provisioning and maintenance. The Nexus 2232TM-E supports unified port connectivity and works transparently under the parent’s control, enabling consistent policies, QoS, and monitoring across distributed access points.

Engineered for data centers, cloud computing, and virtualized environments, the 2232TM-E delivers reliable performance with low latency and efficient traffic forwarding. Its high port density makes it especially useful for connecting large server farms, blade chassis, and rack servers to core network resources. With reduced complexity and centralized control, organizations can achieve scalable, resilient, and manageable network architectures that support growth and evolving application demands.
