Dear members. I want to use this topology design on my network. So I decided to buy nexus 5010 and 2232pp. Before buying I want to ask you. Is it possible to use this devices for my design? Thank you

Hi,

Is this for a data center? The 5ks and 2200 series FEXs are designed to be used in data centers.

BTW, no need to connect the FEXs together. They only connect to a parent switch (5k).

I plan to put 5010 in data center and then connect 2200 series far from 20 km. Can I do that? Also I need to connect second 2200 with the first. It is not possible or you don't recommend?

Yes, as long as you have single mode fiber in place, this should work.

No, the 2200 can only connect to the parent switch (5k). Think of 2200 as a blade inside the 5k.
