Increase Your Deployment Options
Gain flexible and scalable deployment options for your server access fabric. The new Cisco Nexus 5596T Switch is based on the 10GBASE-T standard (IEEE 802.3an) and Cisco NX-OS Software, providing easy management and outstanding reliability.

Increase Flexibility
The 10GBASE-T standard is becoming an appealing option for data center networks as its cost and power consumption continue declining. The standard is moving toward widespread deployment and vendors are introducing more supporting servers, adapters, and cables.
