Features and Benefits of Cisco 25G, QSFP and QSFP28 Modules

The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series is the first 100 and 40-Gb switch, built for the enterprise campus core and aggregation layer. It was recently recognized as CRN's 2017 Overall Network Product of the Year. Designed for security, on the internet side, and the cloud, Cisco 9500 fixed-core switches are high-density building blocks for a next-generation, intent-based network.

 1. The advance Catalyst 9500 switches help to protect your company before, during, and after attacks. This advance technology switches will reduce your attack surface using the trustworthy Cisco system. It will also enhance malware detection and repaid resolution. It has optics for both standalone and Cisco Software-Defined access deployments.

2. The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Switches are based on the Cisco Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) ASIC architecture. Which protects your investment and you will gain more throughout by using the Cisco Catalyst 9500 switches.

3. The Cisco Catalyst 9500 reduces cost and complexity with Cisco Software-Defined Access by using an automated policy. It will enable fast service and provide complete visibility into the wired and wireless access networks.

4. The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series also provides 40G, 100G QSFP+, and QSFP28 (which will be in non-blocking mode) The series also provides 1G, 10G, and 25G SFP, SFP+, and SFP28 switches with granular port densities that will fulfill the requirements.4990_PG_RG_SeriesAdvanceFeatures
