DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 is a managed storage switch bundle supplied with twenty 16G FC optical transceivers. The MDS 9250i Multiservice Fabric Switch combines native Fibre Channel, FCoE and FCIP connectivity rather than copper endpoint access. Separate those connection requirements when preparing the purchase order, and specify the required optics inventory alongside the chassis configuration.

FSPF provides Fibre Channel path selection. DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 runs NX-OS and supports CLI administration, SSHv2, Cisco Prime DCNM and Cisco Device Manager. Keep the management-access plan separate from storage cabling, and identify the intended administrator workflow before acceptance testing.
ORM Systems offers DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 in new sealed and certified refurbished condition, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on refurbished units and 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, rated-speed port links, optics bay recognition, PSU status, fan status and clean boot; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity and accessory contents on the purchase order. PO accepted, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement are available, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

When an existing SAN needs additional connections, the remaining twenty FC ports require an activation license. Build a connection schedule before requesting the expanded configuration, separating the chassis, license entitlement and optical transceivers. Specify the required enabled-port count explicitly on the purchase order.
When purchasing replacement stock for an installed estate, distinguish new sealed units from certified refurbished units before comparing quotations. ORM refurbished equipment is inspected and bench-tested. Specify the required condition, quantity and delivery region, then agree the acceptance checklist and accessory contents before issuing the purchase order.
Native 32G Fibre Channel connections
Native FC speed stops at 16G. DS-C9220I-4PEK9 supports 32G FC, but its base configuration enables four FC ports rather than twenty.
Ongoing Cisco security remediation
Cisco security-remediation support ended December 18, 2025. Evaluate MDS 9220i for a replacement deployment rather than specifying continued security maintenance for this discontinued switch.

DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 identifies the MDS 9250i base configuration bundled with twenty 16G FC optical transceivers. Use the complete part number when comparing offers, and require the quoted bundle contents to be stated explicitly rather than accepting a chassis-only description.
MDS 9250i supports CLI, SSHv2, Cisco Prime DCNM, Cisco Device Manager, SNMPv3 and third-party management integration. Choose the required administration method before acceptance testing, and identify the intended management connection separately from storage links when preparing the installation and handover checklist.
DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 reached end of sale on December 19, 2023, with Cisco support ending December 31, 2028. Software maintenance ended December 18, 2024, and security remediation ended December 18, 2025. Resale does not restart these milestones or establish an active Cisco service entitlement.
New sealed and certified refurbished DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 are offered by ORM Systems. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units, plus 30-day returns in either condition; terms apply. Cisco warranty or service entitlement cannot extend beyond December 31, 2028.
MDS 9250i includes SAN Extension over IP, while advanced software packages are optional. M9200ENT1K9 enables Enterprise features including IVR, and M9250IDMMT6M provides a six-month DMM license. Specify required software entitlements separately from the hardware condition when comparing the contents of competing quotations.
Twenty FC ports are enabled in the DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 base configuration; expansion to forty requires a port-activation license. State the enabled-port requirement in the quotation request and acceptance criteria so the physical chassis capacity is not mistaken for the configuration being purchased.
DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 provides two 1/10GbE IP storage-services ports for FCIP. Treat those connections separately from the FCoE interfaces when preparing the port schedule, and specify the intended connection speed and matching transceivers in the accessory requirements before approving the purchase order.
DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 includes twenty 16G FC optics, while discontinued DS-C9250ID8GSFPK9 includes twenty 8G FC optics. Compare the supplied transceiver inventory, not just the chassis name. The former suits orders requiring the 16G bundle; the latter corresponds to an installed estate requiring the 8G bundle.
DS-C9250ID16GSFPK9 enables twenty FC ports, whereas DS-C9220I-4PEK9 enables four in its base configuration. The MDS 9220i replacement is not a port-for-port substitute. The former matches existing higher-density configurations; the latter suits replacement projects whose connection schedule fits the newer base configuration.
MDS 9250i bundled optics ship in the box rather than installed in the port cages. Include transceiver installation and inventory verification in the receiving checklist, and require the quoted accessory contents to be reconciled against the purchase order before the equipment proceeds to staging.
