The Cisco Nexus 31108PC-V (N3K-C31108PC-V) is a purpose-built, 1-rack-unit fixed-configuration switch engineered for modern data center environments that demand high throughput, ultra-low latency, and deployment flexibility. Part of the Cisco Nexus 3100 Series platform, this switch is optimized for leaf-layer deployments in spine-and-leaf fabrics as well as top-of-rack server access scenarios.Equipped with 48 SFP+ ports capable of supporting 10G and 25G speeds, alongside 6 QSFP28 uplink ports delivering up to 100G connectivity, the 31108PC-V provides the density and bandwidth necessary for demanding virtualization, storage, and cloud workloads. Its compact 1RU form factor maximizes rack efficiency without sacrificing port density.
Running Cisco NX-OS, the switch benefits from a proven, feature-rich operating system that supports advanced networking capabilities including VXLAN, BGP EVPN, and rich telemetry features. This makes it a strong candidate for organizations building or expanding software-defined networking environments.
This unit is offered in New Open Box condition, meaning it has never been put into production use and retains full functionality comparable to new equipment — presenting an outstanding opportunity for cost-conscious IT teams to deploy enterprise-grade Cisco hardware at a fraction of list price.
Backed by WhaleyComm's commitment to quality B2B hardware sourcing, this switch is ideal for enterprises, colocation providers, and managed service providers looking to scale their network infrastructure efficiently.
