Port Breakout Feature
Both the Cisco UCS 6332 fabric interconnect and the Cisco UCS 6332-16UP fabric interconnect have ports
that can be configured for the breakout feature that supports connectivity between 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports
and 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports. This feature provides backward compatibility to existing hardware that supports
10-Gigabit Ethernet. A 40-Gigabit Ethernet port can be used as 4 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports. Using a 40-Gigabit
Ethernet SFP, these ports on the UCS 6300 Series fabric interconnect can be configured as an appliance port,
server port (IOM, Fabric Extender, or C-series server), uplink, FCoE uplink and/or FCoE storage port.
The breakout feature can be configured on ports 1 to 12 and ports 15 to 26 on the Cisco UCS 6332 fabric
interconnect. Ports 17 to 34 on the Cisco UCS 6332-16UP fabric interconnect support the breakout feature.
For information on how to configure the breakout feature, see the Getting Started Guide for the latest release
of Cisco UCS Manager. The configuration guides are available at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/
support/servers-unified-computing/ucs-manager/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html.
Configuring the breakout feature requires a reboot of the fabric interconnect.
Note
Power Supplies
The fabric interconnect has two power supplies that are accessible from the rear of the chassis. Two power
supplies can be used for redundancy, but the fabric interconnect is fully functional with one power supply.
