Introduction
The Cisco 6664 Fabric Interconnects are a core part of the Cisco Unified Computing System, providing both network connectivity and management capabilities for the system. The Cisco 6664 offers line-rate, low-latency, lossless 10/25/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and 16/32/64 Fibre Channel.
The Cisco UCS 6664 Fabric Interconnect provides the management and communication backbone for the Cisco UCS X-Series compute nodes, UCS X9508 X-series chassis and UCS C-Series Rack Servers. All servers attached to a Cisco UCS 6664 Fabric Interconnect become part of a single, highly available management domain. In addition, by supporting a unified fabric, Cisco UCS 6664 Fabric Interconnect provides both the LAN and SAN connectivity for all servers within its domain.
From a networking perspective, the Cisco UCS 6664 uses a cut-through architecture, supporting deterministic, low-latency, line-rate 10/25/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet ports, a bandwidth of 11.65 Tbps per FI and 23.3 Tbps per unified fabric domain, independent of packet size and enabled services. It enables 1600 Gbps bandwidth per X9508 chassis per domain with a X9108-IFM-100G in addition to enabling endto-end 100G ethernet and 200G aggregate bandwidth per X-series compute node. With X9108-IFM-25G it enables 400 Gbps bandwidth per chassis per FI domain. The product family supports Cisco low-latency, lossless 10/25/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric capabilities, which increase the reliability, efficiency, and scalability of Ethernet networks. The fabric interconnect supports multiple traffic classes over a lossless Ethernet fabric from the server through the fabric interconnect. Significant TCO savings come from Cisco’s unified fabric design in which Network Interface Cards (NICs), Host Bus Adapters (HBAs), cables, and switches can be consolidated.
