Description

Cisco Nexus3550F Network Switch Kuwait

The Cisco Nexus3550F Kuwait Series provides programmable platform capabilities, fast layer 2 and 3 switching, high-speed multiplexing, precision timestamping and high-density layer 1 switching to power your ultra-low latency network applications.

The Cisco Nexus3550F Kuwait Fusion is a compact, yet powerful networking platform designed specifically for low latency applications. The device features up to 48 ports of 10G Ethernet connectivity in a single rack unit form factor.

The Cisco Nexus 3550-F High Precision Timestamping Switch is a network tapping, aggregation, and monitoring solution, optimized for high-performance, low-latency networks. The Cisco Nexus3550F Kuwait incorporates Cisco industry-leading HPT time-stamping technology, for 70-picosecond (70ps) timestamps that are embedded in every packet. This makes the Cisco Nexus 3550-F HPT the highest-precision network aggregation and monitoring solution available on the market today. The switch also offers high-quality time synchronization to Pulse-Per-Second (PPS), GPS, and Precision Time Protocol (PTP) sources, ensuring that every packet is globally synchronized as well as precisely timestamped.

Features :

Ultra-low latency networking

Cisco Nexus3550F Kuwait platforms and switches are designed and optimized for ultra-low latency applications.

Software-Defined Hardware

The Nexus 3550-T platform provides the performance characteristics of hardware plus FPGA agility and programmability of software.

Modular switch architecture

The Nexus 3550-F modular architecture provides the flexibility to scale connectivity options and implement FPGA device upgrades and functionality features.

High density layer 1 switching

The Nexus 3550-H are high-density layer 1 switches for date monitoring and distribution

Ease of use and manageability

The Cisco Nexus3550F Kuwait products use a custom operating system and Command Line Interface (CLI), designed specifically to address the needs of layer 1 switching and low latency FPGA configuration. Every command available on the CLI is also available via a remote JSON RPC API making this device easy to operate and manage at scale.
