The new Catalyst 9600X SUP-2 supervisor is based on Cisco Silicon One Q200 Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), which is purpose built for the next generation core with a programmable pipeline (P4) and is the first network silicon to offer switching capacity up to 12.8 Tbps full duplex per ASIC in the enterprise. The Q200 ASIC offers high- performance full routing and switching capabilities without external memories. The Catalyst 9600 Series leverages a high-performance multiple core x86 CPU and is Cisco’s leading purpose-built modular core and edge services enterprise switching platform, built for security, IoT, and cloud.
