Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Hardware Installation Guide

 

Chapter 1      Overview

    Cisco Nexus 5500 Platform Switches

Layer 3 GEMs (N55-M160L3 and N55-M160L3-V2) provide 160 Gbps of Layer 3 services. The 
N55-M160L3-V2 uses a newer version of the Layer 3 ASIC that enables higher table sizes in a future 
software release from 8K host entries to 16K host entries or from 4K multicast routes to 8K 
multicast routes (IPv4).

You can hot swap the expansion modules during operations, except the Layer 3 GEMs. You must power 
down the switch before you can insert or remove the Layer 3 GEMs.

This section includes the following topics:

4-port QSFP GEM, page 1-5

16-port Universal GEM2, page 1-5

Layer 3 GEM, page 1-6

 

4-port QSFP GEM

he 16-port Universal GEM2, shown in 

Figure 1-5

, has 16 8-, 4-, 2-, or 1-Gbps Fibre Channel or 1- and 

10-Gigabit Ethernet ports. This module is a field-replaceable unit (FRU) that you can hot swap during 
operations.
