The Cisco UCS 6454 Fabric Interconnect (FI) is a 1-RU top-of-rack switch that mounts in a standard 19-inch rack such as the Cisco R Series rack. The 6454 is a 10/25/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet, FCoE and Fiber Channel switch offering up to 3.82 Tbps throughput and up to 54 ports. The switch has 16 unified ports (port numbers 1-16) that can support 10/25-Gbps SFP28 Ethernet ports or 8/16/32-Gbps Fibre Channel ports, 28 10/25-Gbps Ethernet SFP28 ports (port numbers 17-44), 4 1/10/25-Gbps Ethernet SFP28 ports (port numbers 45-48), and 6 40/100-Gbps Ethernet QSFP28 uplink ports (port numbers 49-54). All Ethernet ports are capable of supporting FCoE.

The Cisco UCS 6454 Fabric Interconnect also has one network management port, one console port for setting the initial configuration, and one USB port for saving or loading configurations. The FI also includes L1/L2 ports for connecting two fabric interconnects for high availability.

These Cisco Fabric Interconnects provide the management and communication backbone for the Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers, UCS 5108 B-series server chassis, UCS Managed C-Series rack servers, and UCS S-Series storage servers. All servers attached to the Cisco UCS 6454 and 64108 Fabric Interconnects become part of a single, highly available management domain. In addition, by supporting unified fabric, the Cisco Fabric Interconnects provide both the LAN and SAN connectivity for all servers within its domain.

From a networking perspective, the Cisco UCS 6454 and 64108 use a cut-through architecture, supporting deterministic, low-latency, line-rate 10/25/40/50/100 Gigabit Ethernet ports, switching capacity of 3.82 Tbps for the 6454, 7.42 Tbps for the 64108, and 200 Gbps bandwidth between the FI 6454 or 64108 and the IOM or 2408 Fabric Extender per 5108 blade chassis, independent of packet size and enabled services. The product family supports Cisco® low-latency, lossless 10/25/40/50/100 Gigabit Ethernet unified network fabric capabilities, which increase the reliability, efficiency, and scalability of Ethernet networks. The Fabric Interconnect supports multiple traffic classes over a lossless Ethernet fabric from the server through the Fabric Interconnect. Significant TCO savings come from an FCoE optimized server design in which network interface cards (NICs), host bus adapters (HBAs), cables, and switches can be consolidated.

    Management by Cisco UCS Manager
    • Increases flexibility with a range of interconnect solutions, including copper Twinax cable for short runs and fiber for long runs
    • Consumes less power per port than traditional solution
    • Helps enable cost-effective connections on fabric extenders with Cisco Fabric Extender Transceiver (FET) optics
    • Allows all elements connected to the interconnects to participate in a single, highly available management domain
    Unified Fabric
    • Decreases total cost of ownership (TCO) by reducing the number of NICs, HBAs, switches, and cables needed
    • Transparently encapsulates Fibre Channel packets into Ethernet
    Fabric Extender Architecture
    • Scales to 20 chassis without adding complexity by eliminating the need for dedicated chassis management and blade switches and by reducing the number of cables needed
    • Provides deterministic latency for optimized application performance
    SFP+ ports
    • Increases flexibility with a range of interconnect solutions, including copper Twinax cable for short runs and fiber for long runs
    • Consumes less power per port than traditional solutions
    • Helps enable cost-effective connections on fabric extenders with Cisco Fabric Extender Transceiver (FET) optics
    SFP28-compatible ports Allows fixed ports to be configured to operate in 10/25 Gigabit Ethernet mode with the transceiver options specified for use with SFP28-compatible ports
    QSFP28-compatible Ports Allows all ports to be configured to operate in 40/100 Gigabit Ethernet mode with the transceiver options specified for use with QSFP28-compatible ports
    Transceivers The Cisco UCS 6400 series FIs support a wide variety of 10/25/40/100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity options using Cisco 10/25/40/100 Gbps modules. Unified ports (UP) on the Cisco UCS 6400 series FIs support 10/25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity or 8/16/32 Gigabit Fibre Channel.
    Port-based Licensing Helps enable a pay-as-you-go model, allowing customers to add capacity as the networking needs of an individual system increase
    Front-to-Back Cooling Fan side intake, port side exhaust
    Redundant hot-swappable fans and power supplies
    • Helps enable high availability in multiple configurations
    • Increases serviceability
    • Provides uninterrupted service during maintenance
    Rear Ports Helps keep cable lengths short and efficient
    Performance
    • Provides high-speed, low-latency connectivity to the chassis
    • Provides approximately 50% reduction in end-to-end system latency (latency is less than 1 microseconds)
    Lossless Fabric Provides a reliable, robust foundation for unifying LAN and SAN traffic on a single transport
    Priority Flow Control (PFC)
    • Simplifies management of multiple traffic flows over a single network link
    • Supports different classes of service, helping enable both lossless and classic Ethernet on the same fabric
    Systemwide Bandwidth Management Helps enable consistent and coherent quality of service (QoS) throughout the system
