DESCRIPTION

Recent trends like Big Data, Video, and Collaboration are shaping the Enterprise IT environments. At first glance, these trends might not seem like anything new. But what is different is that technologies are now available that allow organizations to deal with these trends in a better way ( for example 10/40/100G availability), Multicore processors driving higher I/O, BiDi Optics, New gen multi-protocol Fabric Extender (FEX), etc). http://blogs.cisco.com/datacenter/introducing-nexus-5624q-switch-seamlessly-migration-from-1g-to-10g40g/
