1Cisco Nexus 2224TP
The Cisco Nexus 2224TP is a stackable 1 RU FEX. This FEX is very similar to the Cisco Nexus 2248TP
except that it has 24 100/1000BASE-T downlink ports, 2 SFP+ uplink ports and you can order it with
front-to-back airflow or back-to-front airflow. You can use this FEXwith the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series
switch. The Cisco Nexus 2224TP is managed and configured by the upstream switch. The FEX software
ships with the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch software. The FEX downloads the software image from
the switch the same way that a module would download it from the supervisor in a modular chassis.
