Chapter 1 Product Overview

Cisco MDS 9100 Series Ports

All 32 4-Gbps ports and 2 10-Gbps ports can operate at line rate concurrently. In addition, the 10-Gbps ports can be activated independently at 24- or 32-port configurations.

A 64-port switch can be formed by stacking two Cisco MDS 9134 Switches together using a copper CX4 X2 transceiver.

The Cisco MDS 9134 Switch includes hot-swappable SFP interfaces. All SFP interfaces are 1, 2, and 4 Gbps, with autosensing capabilities. Individual ports can be configured with either short- or long-wavelength SFP optics for connectivity up to 860 meters and 10 kilometers, respectively. The two 10-Gbps ports support X2 form factor optics, either copper or optical.

For more information about on-demand port licensing, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide and the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Fabric Manager Configuration Guide.
