Cisco Nexus 7700 24-Port 40 Gigabit Ethernet Module

The Cisco N77-F324FQ-25= is a 24-port 40 Gigabit Ethernet module for the Nexus 7700 Series chassis that lets you add high-bandwidth links without increasing latency. Each QSFP+ port brings reliable wired connectivity, making the card a practical choice for data-center cores, spine layers, high-performance computing clusters, and other spaces where east-west traffic is growing faster than rack capacity.

Built on Cisco’s F3 Series architecture, the module integrates smoothly with six-, ten-, or eighteen-slot Nexus 7700 enclosures. It supports Quality of Service, Access Control Lists, and jumbo frames, so you can prioritize workloads, enforce security policies, and move large data sets without extra appliances. Configuration uses the familiar NX-OS interface, which helps teams bring new capacity online quickly while keeping operational practices consistent.

The card is rated at 1.44 billion packets per second and supports up to 64,000 IPv4 routes or 32,000 IPv6 routes. Those figures translate into dependable performance for virtualization farms, storage replication, cloud service aggregation, and other traffic-intensive applications.

Whether you are extending an existing Nexus fabric or designing a new spine-leaf topology, this module gives you room to grow without compromising on control or efficiency.
