Cisco switch eases 10G pains

摘要

As servers become more densely consolidated, and as the data sets that back-end applications are called on to process continue to swell, IT organizations must seek out strategies for transitioning their direct-to-server connectivity from 1 Gigabit to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Cisco's newly minted Catalyst 4900M can help network engineers navigate that transition by offering a mixture of fixed and swappable, card-based ports to provide administrators with the means to growing into 10G as the network I/O needs of their infrastructure expand.
