The Cisco^® MDS 9396S 16G Multilayer Fabric Switch (Figure 1) is the next generation of the high performance, high density and highly reliable Cisco MDS Series Fabric switches. It combines high performance with exceptional flexibility and cost effectiveness. This powerful, compact, 2-rack-unit (2RU) switch scales from 48 to 96 line-rate 16-Gbps Fibre Channel ports.

The Cisco MDS 9396S is excellent for:

• A standalone SAN in large departmental storage environments
• A middle-of-row or top-of-rack switch in medium-sized redundant fabrics
• An edge switch in enterprise data center core-edge topologies

The Cisco MDS 9396S is powered by Cisco NX-OS Software and Cisco Prime^™ Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) software. It delivers advanced storage networking features and functions with ease of management and compatibility with the entire Cisco MDS 9000 Family portfolio for reliable end-to-end connectivity.

Main Features | High Performance and Flexibility at Lower Cost

Up to 96 autosensing Fibre Channel ports are capable of speeds of 2, 4, 8, 10, and 16 Gbps, with 16 Gbps of dedicated bandwidth for each port. The base switch model comes with 48 or 96 ports enabled. The 48-port base model can be upgraded as needed with the 12-port Cisco MDS 9396S On-Demand Port Activation license to also support configurations of 60, 72, 84, and 96 enabled ports. Only the Cisco MDS 9396S scales from 48 to 96 high-performance Fibre Channel ports in a 2RU compact form factor. The Cisco MDS 9396S switch is a high-end fabric switch. It offers more buffer-to-buffer credits than the previous generation fabric switches and also supports a much greater number of VSANs, making it an excellent choice for standalone small and midsize business (SMB) Fibre Channel networks. The 16-Gbps MDS 9396S is the first generation of NVMe over Fibre Channel ready 2RU switches1. When deployed as an N-Port virtualization (NPV) node or as an N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) core connecting legacy Fibre channel switches or multi-protocol Nexus NPV switches, it provides a flexible and scalable option for host connectivity.

High-Availability Platform for Mission-Critical Deployments

In environments in which downtime is intolerable, the Cisco MDS 9396S offers In-Service Software Upgrades (ISSU). With this feature, Cisco NX-OS Software can be upgraded while the Fibre Channel ports carry traffic. The Cisco MDS 9396S includes dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays, PortChannels for Inter-Switch Link (ISL) resiliency, and F-port channeling for resiliency on uplinks from a Cisco MDS 9396S operating in N-Port Virtualization (NPV) mode. New hardware-based slow-port detection and recovery provide enhanced performance and monitoring capabilities.

Simplified Storage Management with Sophisticated Diagnostics

The Cisco MDS 9396S offers built-in storage network management and SAN plug-and-play capabilities. All features are available through a Command-Line Interface (CLI) or Cisco Prime DCNM for SAN Essentials Edition, a centralized management tool. Cisco DCNM task-based wizards simplify management of single or multiple switches and fabrics. For virtual infrastructure, it manages the entire path: from the virtual machine and switch to the physical storage. The Cisco MDS 9396S also supports Power On Auto Provisioning (POAP) to automate software image upgrades and configuration file installation on newly deployed switches. Additionally, it provides intelligent diagnostics, protocol decoding, network analysis tools, and Cisco Call Home for added reliability, faster problem resolution, and reduced service costs.

UltraBoard 950 is the latest compact keyboard from BakkerElkhuizen. The light keystroke, 2 USB ports and clear layout make this a complete keyboard.

The biggest difference to a standard keyboard is that it has no numerical section, which makes the keyboard narrower.

A compact keyboard reduces the distance to the mouse and reduces strain on your lower arms. An added benefit is that a compact variant is easier to transport in a laptop bag. You therefore need not rely on your laptop keyboard.

Compact: the keyboard is thinner, narrower and shallower than the S-Board 840.

Ergonomic: its compact shape enables you to adopt a better working posture, with fewer lower arm complaints as a result.

Modern: the UltraBoard 950 has a modern and stylish design.

A compact keyboard lacks the numerical section. The mouse can thus be placed closer to the keyboard. Research shows 90% of users rarely or never use the numerical section. A compact keyboard is more comfortable because it reduces the distance to the mouse (Cook C, et al., 1998). It thus reduces strain on the lower arms and shoulders. Dark letters on a bright background improve legibility (ISO 9241) and contribute to higher productivity (Snyder, 1990).
