CISCO UCS-IOM-2204XP – UCS 2204XP I/O Module (4 External, 16 Internal 10Gb Ports)

Detailed Description:

The CISCO UCS-IOM-2204XP is an I/O module designed to expand the capabilities of Cisco’s Unified Computing System (UCS) blade servers. It provides high-density, high-bandwidth connectivity both to the chassis it’s installed in and to external networks or storage systems. Featuring four external 10 Gigabit Ethernet, FCoE-capable SFP+ ports, and sixteen internal 10Gb connections to the blade servers within the UCS chassis, this module facilitates a high level of network performance and efficiency. The UCS-IOM-2204XP is an essential component in implementing a fully virtualized environment, enabling end-to-end management of computing and networking resources. It supports Cisco’s virtual interface card (VIC) technology, which allows for the dynamic allocation of network bandwidth and interfaces based on the needs of virtualized workloads, further optimizing performance and resource utilization across the network. This I/O module is designed with redundancy and high availability in mind, featuring automatic failover and load balancing across connections to ensure uninterrupted service and maximum data throughput. It is an ideal solution for enterprises and data centers looking to scale their operations efficiently while maintaining high levels of performance and reliability.
