Spine-Leaf Fabric — Top-of-rack 25G/100G aggregation between leaf and spine switches. Match speed and form factor across both endpoints.
Server Uplink — 10G/25G server-to-leaf uplink — pair with matching DAC or AOC at the host NIC to avoid optic mismatch.
DCI (Data Center Interconnect) — Inter-DC routing or aggregation. LR4/LR8 transceivers for 10–80 km, ER4 for 40 km, ZR4 for coherent long-haul.
Campus Distribution — Catalyst-class campus distribution between IDF and MDF closets. PoE+ where wireless APs and IP phones share infrastructure.

Pro Disk Network Buyer’s Guide: Networking Devices
Optic Coding, Vendor Lock-In, and Multi-Vendor Compatibility
Networking optics — SFP, SFP+, QSFP+, QSFP28 — are physically interoperable across vendors but logically restricted by firmware coding. The 872726-H21 is coded for a specific vendor family at our factory step before shipping, which preserves the OEM warranty workflow and allows the optic to be recognised without ‘service unsupported-transceiver’ CLI overrides. Mixing third-party optics with same-vendor optics in the same chassis is safe; mixing across vendor codings sometimes triggers warnings in the switch log.
Bandwidth Sizing for Spine-Leaf, EVPN-VXLAN, and Hyperconverged Storage
For EVPN-VXLAN overlays, the 872726-H21 carries the underlay tunnels in addition to the workload traffic. Plan for VXLAN encapsulation overhead (50 bytes) plus MTU headroom; set the underlay MTU to 9216 (jumbo frames) and the overlay MTU to 9000. Make sure both the 872726-H21 and the connected NICs support jumbo frames — some older NICs cap at 9000-byte payloads even when jumbo-enabled.
