The Cisco N9K-X9464PX Line Card is a high-performance module designed for Cisco Nexus 9500 Series switches, delivering scalable and low-latency connectivity for modern data center and cloud environments. Engineered for spine-leaf architectures, it provides high-density 10G access with flexible 40G uplinks for demanding enterprise and virtualization workloads.

Featuring 48 × 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ ports and 4 × 40GbE QSFP+ uplink ports, the N9K-X9464PX enables high-speed connectivity and efficient aggregation across large-scale network infrastructures. The QSFP+ ports support breakout functionality, allowing each 40G port to operate as 4 × 10G connections for increased deployment flexibility.

Built on Cisco’s cloud-scale architecture, the line card supports advanced technologies such as VXLAN, Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, and automation capabilities, enabling scalable and programmable data center fabrics. Its ultra-low latency and high-throughput performance make it ideal for cloud computing, virtualization, and high-performance enterprise applications.

Running on Cisco NX-OS, the module supports advanced routing protocols including BGP, OSPF, and IS-IS, along with automation tools such as NX-API, Python, REST APIs, and Ansible, simplifying network orchestration and management.

Designed for high availability, the hot-swappable line card integrates seamlessly into Cisco Nexus 9500 modular chassis, allowing easy upgrades and maintenance without disrupting operations.

Ideal for data center aggregation, spine-leaf deployments, virtualization environments, and enterprise cloud networking, the Cisco N9K-X9464PX provides a scalable, reliable, and high-performance solution for next-generation data center infrastructures.
