Every WhaleyComm unit is professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and certified by our in-house engineers — the same standard trusted by 5,000+ organisations across 25 years. Not a refurb marketplace. A certified lifecycle partner.
Professionally tested. Factory reset. Backed by 25+ years of enterprise trust.
This refurbished Cisco N9K-C93108TC-FX is a 1RU fixed-port switch from the Nexus 9300-FX series, delivering 48 ports of 100M/1G/10GBASE-T downlinks and 6 ports of 40G/100G QSFP28 uplinks. The unit has been professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and inspected to ensure full operational integrity before shipment. At a fraction of new pricing, it provides enterprise-grade Cisco hardware without compromise.Built on Cisco Cloud Scale technology, the N9K-C93108TC-FX supports 2.16 Tbps of switching bandwidth and over 1.25 Bpps of forwarding throughput. Downlink ports are auto-sensing at 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, or 10 Gbps, and uplinks can be configured as 40G or 100G — or broken out across a flexible mix of 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G, and 100G speeds for spine-leaf migration flexibility. The platform supports MACsec encryption, VXLAN EVPN, Cisco ACI, and Cisco NX-OS operating modes, and includes hot-swappable N+1 power supplies and fan modules with selectable port-side intake or exhaust airflow.
WhaleyComm's refurbished N9K-C93108TC-FX delivers the same performance as new Cisco hardware at a significant cost savings — an ideal choice for data center leaf deployments, enterprise ToR refresh cycles, and service provider aggregation projects. Every unit ships with our Lifetime Warranty and a Certificate of Testing. With 25+ years of experience and 5,000+ enterprise customers, WhaleyComm is the trusted source for certified refurbished Cisco infrastructure.

Ideal Use Cases
Data Center Leaf / Top-of-Rack
Deploy as a leaf switch in spine-leaf architectures, connecting servers via high-density 10GBASE-T copper while uplinks scale to 40G or 100G spine switches. Supports VXLAN EVPN for modern overlay fabrics under Cisco NX-OS or ACI.
Enterprise Campus Core or Aggregation
The 48-port 10GBASE-T design integrates into enterprise aggregation layers using existing CAT6/CAT6A cabling, delivering 10G to workstations and servers without fiber upgrades.
Cisco ACI Fabric Deployment
Functions as an ACI-ready leaf node for intent-based networking, enabling automated policy enforcement, micro-segmentation, and centralized management within a Cisco ACI fabric.
Secure Multi-Tenant Environments
MACsec capability encrypts east-west and uplink traffic at line rate, making this switch well-suited for healthcare, financial services, and multi-tenant data center deployments where data-in-motion security is required.
Brownfield Network Refresh
Reuses existing copper cabling runs to deliver 10G server access with 40G/100G uplink capacity, allowing organizations to modernize incrementally without wholesale recabling or large capital outlays.
Service Provider Hosting and Cloud Environments
Supports large-scale virtualized workloads with VXLAN EVPN, ECMP, and flexible QoS, making it ideal for service provider ToR or aggregation roles in cloud computing infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
Yes. The Cisco Nexus 93108TC-FX supports both Cisco NX-OS mode for standard data center switching and Cisco ACI mode for intent-based, policy-driven network automation. The operating mode is determined at deployment and can be changed with the appropriate software and licensing.
The 6 uplink ports support 40G and 100G operation, and can also be configured for breakout connectivity across a flexible mix of 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 50G, and 100G speeds. This provides significant flexibility for spine-leaf migration without hardware changes.
Yes. The N9K-C93108TC-FX is MACsec capable. MACsec encryption is supported on ports operating at 10G and above, enabling line-rate encryption of east-west and uplink traffic without performance degradation.
Yes. Every WhaleyComm unit ships with a Lifetime Warranty. If it fails under normal operating conditions at any point, we replace it at no cost — no time limits, no questions asked.
Every unit goes through our ISO 9001-certified testing process: full power-on diagnostics, port-by-port functionality testing, firmware verification, factory reset, and final inspection. A Certificate of Testing ships with every unit.
