Product Review
The Brocade NI-CER-2048CX-AC offers a high port density with 48×1 GbE copper ports complemented by 2×10 GbE XFP uplinks, catering to environments requiring extensive connectivity. While its forwarding performance at 136 Gbps and packet forwarding rate of 101 Mpps are suitable for mid-sized network backbones, the unit's single 500 W AC power supply, despite having an option for 1+1 redundancy, could be a limitation for scenarios demanding higher power availability. Additionally, the device's power consumption and thermal output are considerable, which could impact operational costs and cooling requirements in dense deployments.
