Cisco Nexus 2232TM-10GE, Cisco NexusN2K-C2232TM-E-10GE
The Cisco Nexus 2232TM-10GE is a stackable 1 RU 17.72 inch (45 cm) deep FEX that supports 32
1/10-Gigabit Base-T host-facing (downlink) ports and 8 10-Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+) network-facing
(uplink) ports through an uplink module.
You can use this FEX with the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch. The Cisco Nexus 2232TM-10GE is
managed and configured by the upstream switch. The FEX software ships with the Cisco Nexus 5000
Series switch software. The FEX downloads the software image from the switch the same way that a
module would download it from the supervisor in a modular chassis.
You can use the Cisco Nexus 2232TM-E-10GE with the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch starting in the
NX-OS 5.2(1)N1(1) rlease and beyond

Chassis

The Cisco Nexus 2232TM FEX chassis has a height of 1.72 inches (4.37 cm), a width of 17.3 inches
(43.94 cm), and a depth of 17.7 inches (44.96 cm). It weighs 18.5 pounds (8.4 kg). Its one-rack-unit (1
RU) form factor takes up relatively little space, making it easy to incorporate into rack designs. The FEX
is mounted in a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack and supports vertical orientation. All of the switch
ports at the rear of the chassis are in close proximity to server ports, and all user-serviceable components
are accessible from the front panel.
