Cisco Nexus F2 Expansion Module – For Data Networking, Optical NetworkOptical Fiber10 Gigabit Ethernet – 10GBase-X – 48 x Expansion Slots – SFP (mini-GBIC), SFP+ – Hot-swappable

The Cisco Nexus 7000 F2-Series Module is built with switch-on-chip (SoC) architecture, in which a single ASIC implements all the module functions: from ingress buffering, to forwarding lookups and access control lists (ACLs) and quality-of-service (QoS) tables, to fabric interfaces and virtual output queuing (VOQ). Each SoC manages four front-panel interfaces. This type of design increases performance while lowering the power and cooling requirements of the module.
