The Cisco Nexus 9400 Series centralized modular switches expand the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series portfolio with a new chassis that supports very high port density 400 Gigabit expansion modules.
As datacenters continue to evolve to support next-generation applications such as machine learning that drive massive growth intra-datacenter traffic bandwidth, datacenter operators require compact, high capacity, and highly efficient switches to upgrade datacenter fabrics. They need security, automation, visibility, analytics, and assurance. Equipped to support this next-generation cloud architecture, the Cisco Nexus 9400 series switches are based on Cisco Cloud Scale technology.
