FAQ
How many models are in cisco-catalyst-9500-series?
This landing lists published catalog assignments (8 at audit time). Counts change only when catalog assignments change.
Can I pick any model in the series interchangeably?
No. Match downlink, uplink, and PoE fields for the exact PID.
Where are comparisons?
Open More comparisons or a PID pair comparison when both models are in the catalog.
Why reject 96×SFP28 copy for N9K-C93600CD-GX?
That faceplate belongs to a different Nexus class. QianliSwitch maps N9K-C93600CD-GX to Cisco OEM 28×QSFP28 + 8×QSFP-DD specifications only.
Is Ruijie PoF the same as RJ45 PoE?
No. PoF delivers power over hybrid fiber cable alongside optical data. It is not a copper 802.3at closet design. Confirm hybrid cable plant and PSU modules before RFQ.
What ports does RG-S5750-24SFP4XS24DP-UP provide?
Ruijie materials list 24 × 1G SFP downlinks, 4 × 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, and a DB78 hybrid power interface for up to 24 Power-over-Fiber outputs (up to 100 W each). See RG-S5750-24SFP4XS24DP-UP.
Is N9K-C93600CD-GX a 25G SFP28 leaf?
No. Per Cisco N9300-GX materials, N9K-C93600CD-GX provides 28 × 40/100G QSFP28 and 8 × 40/100/400G QSFP-DD ports. For a 48 × SFP28 leaf, evaluate N9K-C93180YC-FX3.
What ports does CE5855-48T4XS have?
What ports does CE5855-48T4XS have?
CE5855-48T4XS lists 48 × 1G RJ-45, 4 × 10G SFP+, and 2 × 40G QSFP+ with 336 Gbps / 252 Mpps on authorized family data. Quote the exact hardware suffix (-B/-EI/-F) on the RFQ.
