Cisco ACI-C9316-APIC-B1 Nexus 9000 ACI Bundle (2× 9316D-GX Switches + APIC Controller)

The Cisco ACI-C9316-APIC-B1 is a complete Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) starter bundle. It is designed for enterprise data centers that require automation, scalability, and centralized network management.

This bundle includes:

• 2 × Cisco Nexus 9316D-GX switches
• 1 × Cisco APIC (Application Policy Infrastructure Controller)

The included switches provide 16 × 100G QSFP28 ports each, delivering high-speed connectivity for spine-leaf architectures.

With a switching capacity of up to 3.2 Tbps per switch, the solution supports high-performance workloads such as cloud computing, virtualization, and large-scale applications.

The APIC controller enables centralized policy-based management. It allows administrators to define network behavior using application policies rather than manual configurations, improving efficiency and reducing operational complexity.

This bundle is ideal for building a Cisco ACI fabric, offering:

• Automated provisioning
• Multi-tenant segmentation
• Integrated security policies
• Simplified network operations

The system supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 networking, making it flexible for modern data center designs.

It includes redundant, hot-swappable power supplies, ensuring high availability and minimal downtime in mission-critical environments.
