Virtualization, 10G Ethernet streamline Cisco user's data center


It is by no means the largest or most sophisticated Cisco network there is -- yet the infrastructure implemented by Transplace is nonetheless a great example of the target application for Cisco's data center switches.
Transplace is a Dallas-based transportation supply chain and logistics management company employing 550. It has a Cisco Nexus network of a single 7000 in the core, two 40-port-plus5020s at the top of its racks, and two 48-port 2X48 fabric extenders for port extension in its co-located test and development data center in Lowell, Ariz. The company is currently building a similar configuration at its production data center in Dallas.
