In a large enterprise data center migrating to a leaf-spine architecture, deploying the N5K-C5672UP-16G (Nexus 5672UP 1RU, 24×10G SFP+, 24 pxUP SFP+, 6×40G QSFP+) as a high-density spine switch ensures sub-microsecond latency and non-blocking 40 Gbps uplinks. This use case delivers predictable east-west traffic performance, seamless scaling to hundreds of leaf switches, and simplified capacity expansion—resulting in up to 70% faster VM migration and 50% lower network-fabric overhead.
For hyper-converged infrastructure running mixed compute and storage traffic, the Nexus 5672UP’s unified I/O (24 10 Gbps SFP+ ports with 16 pxUP for lossless storage and six 40 Gbps QSFP+ uplinks) consolidates LAN and SAN on a single fabric. This deployment reduces rack cabling by 60%, optimizes throughput for iSCSI/NFS workloads, and simplifies QoS management—delivering 40% lower TCO and consistent sub-millisecond storage latency.
Cloud service providers leveraging VXLAN-EVPN for tenant isolation deploy the Nexus 5672UP as Top-Of-Rack switches to handle overlay networks at 40 Gbps. Integrated hardware-based VXLAN forwarding, programmable QoS, and 16 pxUP support secure multi-tenant segmentation with up to 16 million routes. This solution accelerates service onboarding by 3×, delivers predictable tenant SLAs, and ensures 99.999% network availability across hundreds of racks.
