HF6100-32D provides 32 fixed QSFP-DD ports supporting 40G, 100G, 200G, and 400G Ethernet in a 1U chassis. This managed Layer 3 switch serves data center fabric connections rather than powered access endpoints, with no PoE delivery or copper access ports. The Hyperfabric 6100 hardware supports leaf, spine, mesh, border, and standalone roles, allowing port assignments to follow the fabric design. HF6100-60L4D instead provides 60 SFP56 connections and four QSFP-DD connections for a different server-facing interface mix. Cisco 6000 Series Switches operate as appliances within Cisco Nexus Hyperfabric, rather than as customer-installed NX-OS systems. The fixed interface arrangement means fabric and host connections share the available front-panel ports instead of relying on a separately installed uplink card.

12800 Gbps switching capacity applies at packet sizes of 187 bytes and larger, an important boundary when sizing traffic with smaller packets. 8000 Mpps forwarding capacity supplies the packet-rate ceiling for aggregate host and fabric demand. Static routing and BGP support upstream connectivity, while EVPN/VXLAN provides the fabric architecture. HF6100-32D combines 16 GB of DRAM with 32 GB of flash for its embedded operating environment. Cisco Silicon One Q200 forwarding hardware supports a maximum of 256000 MAC addresses, subject to entitlement, feature limitations, and the selected ASIC template. Browser-based administration and a RESTful API provide interactive and automated management paths. 288W typical system consumption excludes pluggable transceiver loads, so optical power must remain a separate consideration when sizing rack power. Six fan trays provide 5+1 cooling redundancy; PSU selection must also account for the installed transceiver configuration.
ORM Systems supplies HF6100-32D new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, optics bay recognition, PSU status, fan status, and clean boot, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity, and required accessories on the PO; Cisco's separate standard hardware warranty is 1 year, with warranty support limited to 2 years after a discontinuance announcement. Enterprise and volume orders can use PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA operations across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When server connection requirements exceed the native cage count, 400G-to-100G breakout supports 128 x 100G connections on this switch. Allocate host connections and fabric links within the intended topology before purchasing hardware, then specify compatible breakout connections and transceivers against the completed port plan on the purchase order.
For a rollout spanning separately managed data center locations, the cloud controller can host the Hyperfabric organization in the United States or European Union. Decide the organization's hosting geography before deployment and have the network team verify outbound TLS connectivity on TCP port 443 before approving the purchase order.
Customer-installed NX-OS or ACI software
HF6100-32D ships with a locked embedded operating system and does not run NX-OS or ACI. Customer-selected operating-system installation is not supported on this hardware.
MACsec encryption between switch ports
HF6100-32D does not provide MACsec encryption, including WAN MACsec. A requirement for encrypted Ethernet links cannot be satisfied by selecting a different Hyperfabric subscription tier.
Native 800G data center connections
HF6100-32D data ports stop at 400G. HF6100-64ED provides 800G OSFP ports and uses a 2U chassis, changing both connector type and required rack space.

HF6100-32D identifies the Cisco 6000 Hyperfabric switch configuration with 32 x 400G QSFP-DD ports, without selecting a subscription tier. HF6100-32D-D is configurable hardware, while HF6100-32D-S is fixed hardware with AC power and port-exhaust airflow. HF6100-32D-SVC-D and HF6100-32D-SVC-S identify the corresponding subscription-linked bundles.
Cisco 6000 switches are managed through the Nexus Hyperfabric browser portal and RESTful API, with an onsite mobile web portal assisting physical deployment. Configuration, monitoring, and scheduled software updates are cloud-controlled. The appliances use preinstalled software rather than a customer-selected NX-OS installation or a locally deployed management controller.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Hyperfabric 6100. HF6100-32D is available to order. The Cisco 6000 family is separate from the older Nexus 6000 family, whose discontinued status does not describe this switch or determine its software compatibility.
ORM Systems offers HF6100-32D new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; both conditions include 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's separate standard hardware warranty is 1 year, with warranty support limited to 2 years after any discontinuance announcement.
HF6100-32D uses an Essentials or Premier Cisco Nexus Hyperfabric subscription with a three-year minimum initial term. Essentials serves general-purpose fabrics; Premier adds integrated AI infrastructure capabilities. Hardware-only, hardware-plus-subscription, and subscription-only purchasing are supported, but purchasing hardware separately does not remove the subscription requirement for cloud management.
HF6100-32D provides 32 fixed QSFP-DD ports supporting 40G, 100G, 200G, and 400G connections, with breakout support. A 400G-to-100G configuration supports 128 x 100G connections. Host-facing and fabric-facing assignments must share the available connections, and the selected optics and breakout connections must match the intended topology.
No, HF6100-32D ships with one PSU1.4KW-ACPE and has a second power-supply bay for optional redundancy. The second supply must match the power type and airflow. PSU2KW-ACPE and PSU2KW-DCPE are port-exhaust AC and DC alternatives; AC and DC supplies cannot be mixed within the chassis.
Yes, HF6100-32D continues operating with its last-known configuration when cloud connectivity is lost. Local forwarding and fabric protocols remain on the switches. Configuration updates cannot be applied through the disconnected controller, and telemetry is buffered locally until connectivity returns and the switch resynchronizes with the cloud service.
HF6100-32D provides 32 QSFP-DD data ports, whereas HF6100-60L4D combines 60 SFP56 ports with four QSFP-DD ports. Both belong to the cloud-managed Cisco 6000 family. HF6100-32D suits designs centered on QSFP-DD connections; HF6100-60L4D suits buyers requiring a larger native SFP56 server-facing interface count.
HF6100-64ED provides 64 OSFP data ports, compared with 32 QSFP-DD data ports on HF6100-32D. These are different physical connection arrangements within the same cloud-managed family. HF6100-32D suits a 32-port QSFP-DD design; HF6100-64ED addresses buyers specifying greater native port density with OSFP connections.
HF6100-32D is a 1U rack-mounted switch with N9K-ACC-KIT-1RU-L and N9K-ACC-KIT-1RU-S available as long and short four-post mounting kits. The chassis measures 599 mm deep including fan and tray handles. Specify the mounting kit against the installation's rack geometry and available rear clearance before ordering.
Yes, HF6100-32D supports Layer 3 connectivity using static routes and BGP through Cisco Nexus Hyperfabric. EVPN/VXLAN supplies the fabric architecture, with routed upstream connections available for IPv4 and IPv6 networks. These functions operate within the Hyperfabric subscription model rather than through a separately purchased NX-OS software image.
