N3K-C3064PQ-10GE-DC Cisco Nexus 3064-E Switch with Std Airflow/DC Power
Cisco N3K-C3064PQ-10GE-DC Nexus 3064-E 48-Port 10G SFP+ Switch with DC Power
High-Performance Cisco Nexus 3064-E Switch with 10G SFP+ Ports and DC Power for Data Center Deployments
The Cisco N3K-C3064PQ-10GE-DC Nexus 3000 Series Switch is a high-performance data center switch engineered for ultra-low latency, high-density 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, and scalable cloud networking environments. Designed for modern enterprise and hyperscale infrastructures, it delivers wire-rate Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching for demanding Top-of-Rack (ToR) and aggregation deployments.
Featuring 48 × 10G SFP+ ports and 4 × QSFP+ uplink ports, the switch provides flexible high-speed connectivity for servers, storage, and aggregation layers. The QSFP+ uplinks support 40GbE connectivity and breakout configurations, enabling scalable network expansion and efficient high-bandwidth deployments.
With a switching capacity of up to 1.28 Tbps and forwarding performance of up to 960 Mpps, the N3K-C3064PQ-10GE-DC delivers high-throughput packet processing with ultra-low latency, making it ideal for virtualization, cloud applications, and latency-sensitive workloads such as high-frequency trading environments.
Powered by Cisco NX-OS, the switch supports advanced networking capabilities including Layer 2/Layer 3 routing, VXLAN overlays, QoS, ACLs, automation, and programmability features for simplified management and scalable data center operations.
The platform supports dual DC power supplies for high availability and offers standard or reverse airflow options to accommodate different data center cooling architectures. Hot-swappable fans and power supplies further enhance operational reliability and service continuity.
Ideal for Top-of-Rack data center deployments, cloud infrastructures, virtualization platforms, enterprise aggregation networks, and low-latency trading environments, the Cisco N3K-C3064PQ-10GE-DC delivers scalable performance, flexible connectivity, and enterprise-grade reliability for modern high-speed networking environments.
