Cisco Nexus 9332D-H2R Switch
The first Cisco Nexus 9000 switch with deep buffer capability — engineered to handle the bursty, high-volume traffic patterns of AI/ML training workloads and IP media streaming without packet loss.
Product Overview
Deep Packet Buffer
Deep on-chip buffer memory absorbs large traffic bursts from GPU collective operations — preventing the packet drops that reduce AI training efficiency.
32x 400G Ports
32 line-rate 400G QSFP-DD ports with breakout options for flexible connectivity to compute nodes, storage, and spine switches.
IP Media Ready
Deep buffer architecture handles IP media flows — video transport, streaming, and broadcasting workflows that require bursty capacity.
Intelligent Buffer Management
Cisco's intelligent buffer management distinguishes between mice and elephant flows, applying different queue management for each.
Line-Rate MACsec
Hardware MACsec encryption on all ports protects AI training data and media content at line rate with zero performance impact.
Buffer Telemetry
Per-port and per-queue buffer utilization telemetry lets operations teams identify and resolve congestion before it impacts workloads.
