Cisco UCS-FI-6296UP UCS 6296UP 2RU Fabric Interconnect

Cisco UCS 6296UP 2RU Fabric Interconnect with 48 Unified Ports and 18-Port License

The Cisco UCS-FI-6296UP is a Cisco UCS 6296UP Fabric Interconnect designed to provide high-density, unified fabric connectivity for enterprise data centers. Featuring 48 fixed unified ports, a 2RU rack-mountable form factor, and up to 1.92 Tbps switching throughput, it supports Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and native Fibre Channel connectivity for compatible Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) environments. This configuration includes an 18-port license and is supplied without power supplies.

Designed for centralized management through Cisco UCS Manager, the UCS-FI-6296UP integrates server, LAN, and storage connectivity into a unified fabric architecture. Three expansion slots support additional port capacity through compatible expansion modules, while redundant power supply and fan configurations help support availability in appropriately equipped deployments. Port speeds and Fibre Channel capabilities depend on supported transceivers, licensing, and configuration.

The Cisco UCS-FI-6296UP Fabric Interconnect is suitable for Cisco UCS data centers, enterprise server connectivity, storage networking, unified Ethernet and Fibre Channel environments, and scalable data center fabric deployments. It is a practical option for organizations maintaining existing Cisco UCS infrastructure that require centralized fabric management and flexible network connectivity.
