10GBASE-T Server Connectivity for Data Center Edges

N3K-C3064TQ-32T is a managed Layer 3 data center switch with 32 enabled 10GBASE-T access ports and four fixed 40G QSFP+ uplinks. Copper interfaces support 100 Mbps, 1G and 10G server connections, while the built-in uplink cages provide aggregation connectivity without a removable network card. The Cisco Nexus 3064-32T belongs to the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series and runs NX-OS with the included Base license. Its non-PoE interfaces connect independently powered servers rather than supplying endpoint power. The discontinued N3K-C3064TQ-10GT enables 48 copper ports instead, making enabled port density the immediate distinction between these configurations. Fixed copper downlinks separate server cabling decisions from the optical or direct-attach media selected for aggregation.

N3K-C3064TQ-32T price for new stock is $20,790.00, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $41,580.00. N3K-C3064TQ-32T refurb price is $6,793.50. N3K-C3064TQ-32T is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details

1280 Gbps switching capacity supports line-rate Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic, while 950 Mpps forwarding provides packet-processing capacity for the connected interfaces. 256-route OSPFv2 support under the Base license caps that protocol independently of hardware scale; Static routing, RIPv2 and EIGRP Stub are also included. Hardware routing capacity comprises 16000 prefixes and a separate 16000-host table, not a combined route allowance. Shared packet buffering provides 9 MB for queued traffic, with buffer monitoring available per port and queue. N3K-C3064TQ-32T uses LACP for link aggregation and RSTP/MSTP for loop control. Administrators can work through console, SSHv2, Telnet, XML NETCONF or SNMP, and Cisco DCNM supports centralized management. Role-based access controls restrict administrative operations, while DHCP snooping and configurable CoPP govern endpoint and control-plane traffic handling. BGP and full EIGRP require additional licensing rather than being included in the default configuration. These routing entitlements remain separate from copper-port activation.

Ordering

ORM Systems offers N3K-C3064TQ-32T new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty; every condition carries 30-day returns, with terms applying. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and quantity on the purchase order, recognizing that Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware warranty and Cisco service ended June 30, 2021. Enterprise and volume purchasing supports accepted POs, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Separate port activation purchase

N3K-C3064TQ-32T requires N3064T-16T-UPG= for 16 additional copper connections. Port activation is separate from optional routing or traffic-monitoring licenses, so specify the required entitlements rather than assuming hardware presence enables every interface.

Specify uplink connection media

N3K-C3064TQ-32T uplink orders need suitable media: QSFP-40G-SR4 for MPO optical connections, QSFP-H40G-CU3M for 3m copper links, or QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M for four-way 10G breakout, rather than a removable uplink card.

Follow the replacement chain

N3K-C3064TQ-32T reached end of sale on June 7, 2016. Its direct replacement, N3K-C3172TQ-32T, is also discontinued; the migration chain leads to N9K-C93108TC-FX3P, which changes port density and uplink speed.

N3K-C3064TQ-32T Use Case

High-Density Leaf Switch for Spine-Leaf Data Center Architecture

In a modern multi-tenant data center, IT teams deploy the N3K-C3064TQ-32T as a leaf switch to connect 32 10GBase-T server links and four QSFP+ uplinks to spine fabric. This configuration delivers 1.28 Tbps of non-blocking throughput and sub-2 µs latency, enabling seamless VM mobility, rapid east-west traffic flows, and linear compute scale-out. Benefit/Outcome: Achieve predictable application performance, simplified network scaling, and accelerated DevOps cycles.

High-Performance Compute Cluster Networking for AI/ML Workloads

In GPU-accelerated AI training clusters, system architects use the Nexus 3064-32T to aggregate 10GBase-T connections from AI servers and four 40 Gbps QSFP+ uplinks to the core. The switch’s low-latency forwarding and 1.28 Tbps capacity ensure deterministic data distribution across distributed training nodes. Benefit/Outcome: Maximize GPU utilization, reduce training time by up to 30%, and streamline large-model parallelism with lossless, high-bandwidth fabric.

Low-Latency Financial Trading Network Infrastructure

In high-frequency trading environments, network engineers install the N3K-C3064TQ-32T at trading floor racks to connect trading servers via 32 10GBase-T ports and four QSFP+ uplinks to market gateways. The switch’s cut-through architecture and sub-micron jitter deliver deterministic, ultra-low latency for order execution. Benefit/Outcome: Reduce round-trip latency below 1 µs, improve trade throughput, and maintain competitive edge in microsecond-sensitive markets.

Best For

Copper Server Migration

Existing copper runs awaiting faster server connections need qualification before a hardware swap. Structured twisted-pair connections reach 100m on this model, using compatible shielded or unshielded cabling. Review cable suitability across the intended runs, then specify the required server-facing connections and link media before issuing the purchase order.

Airflow Standardization

Existing rows with a fixed aisle orientation need the correct airflow variant on any spare order. N3K-C3064-FAN uses port-side exhaust, whereas N3K-C3064-FAN-B uses port-side intake. The airflow options are not interchangeable deployment choices; specify the required direction and corresponding fan PID before placing the purchase order.

Automated Lab Staging

Repeated staging for lab racks or standardized server rows can use PowerOn Auto Provisioning (POAP) for bootup and configuration. Python scripting and Cisco EEM also support automated operations on the managed system. Prepare the configuration workflow and management access required by the staging plan, then verify the intended startup configuration before issuing the PO.

Not Suitable If

Native 100G uplinks to aggregation

The fixed uplinks stop at 40G. N9K-C93108TC-FX3P provides six 100G uplinks and 48 copper access ports, so the alternative also increases access-port density.

BGP without an additional license

The included Base N3K-BAS1K9 license excludes BGP and full EIGRP. Those functions require LAN Enterprise N3K-LAN1K9 rather than the standard entitlement.

Redundant operation from DC inputs

DC power inputs on the Nexus 3064-32T operate in combined mode only. The paired DC inputs do not provide redundant operation on this model.

Questions & Answers

What does the N3K-C3064TQ-32T part number mean?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T identifies the Nexus 3064-32T configuration with 32 enabled 10GBASE-T ports and four QSFP+ ports. N3K identifies the Nexus 3000 family, C3064TQ identifies the copper Nexus 3064 hardware, and 32T identifies the enabled copper-port configuration. The part number does not include a LAN Enterprise license suffix.

How is the Cisco Nexus 3064-32T managed?

The Cisco Nexus 3064-32T is managed through the serial-console CLI, remote CLI over SSHv2 or Telnet, XML NETCONF, SNMP and Cisco DCNM. Dedicated management interfaces and in-band management are supported. Role-based access controls restrict administrative operations, while configuration rollback, syslog and embedded packet analysis support operational troubleshooting.

Is N3K-C3064TQ-32T end of life?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T reached end of sale on June 7, 2016, and Cisco support ended on June 30, 2021. The direct replacement, N3K-C3172TQ-32T, subsequently reached end of sale on February 25, 2022. The replacement chain continues to N9K-C93108TC-FX3P rather than stopping at that discontinued intermediate model.

What are ORM Systems' condition and warranty options for N3K-C3064TQ-32T?

ORM Systems offers N3K-C3064TQ-32T new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Returns are available for 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware warranty and Cisco service ended on June 30, 2021.

Which software licenses does N3K-C3064TQ-32T use?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T includes Base N3K-BAS1K9 and factory-installed port activation N3064T-32T-LIC. LAN Enterprise N3K-LAN1K9 requires Base and adds advanced routing. Cisco Nexus Data Broker NDB-FX-SWT-K9 licenses tap/SPAN aggregation. N3064T-16T-UPG= separately enables 16 additional copper ports, so port activation and feature licensing are distinct entitlements.

Can N3K-C3064TQ-32T activate all 48 copper ports?

Yes, N3K-C3064TQ-32T can activate all 48 copper ports by installing N3064T-16T-UPG=. The factory configuration enables 32 copper ports through N3064T-32T-LIC, leaving 16 requiring the upgrade entitlement. Confirm the installed activation license when purchasing an existing unit rather than treating every physical connector as already enabled.

What uplink connections does N3K-C3064TQ-32T support?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T supports four fixed QSFP+ uplinks, each operating at native 40G or as four 10G connections. QSFP-40G-SR4 provides an MPO optical option, while QSFP-4SFP10G-CU3M provides a 3m copper breakout option. Select media for the intended operating mode; the chassis does not require a removable uplink card.

Does the Nexus 3064-32T support redundant AC and DC power?

The Nexus 3064-32T supports redundant AC power, but its DC configuration operates in combined mode rather than redundant mode. Two DC inputs therefore do not establish power redundancy on this model. Specify the required input method and airflow direction when preparing the hardware configuration and purchase order.

Which routing protocols are included with N3K-C3064TQ-32T?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T includes Static routing, RIPv2, OSPFv2 limited to 256 routes, and EIGRP Stub under Base N3K-BAS1K9. HSRP, VRRP, PIM-SM, SSM and MSDP are also included. BGP and full EIGRP require LAN Enterprise N3K-LAN1K9; the hardware route-table capacity does not remove the Base OSPFv2 restriction.

Can the Cisco Nexus 3064-32T use virtual PortChannel?

Yes, the Cisco Nexus 3064-32T supports virtual PortChannel, or vPC, under the included Base N3K-BAS1K9 license. vPC provides Layer 2 multipathing, while LACP supports link aggregation. Specify the intended PortChannel topology and management configuration separately from copper-port activation when preparing an existing network extension or replacement order.

What is the difference between N3K-C3064TQ-32T and N3K-C3064TQ-10GT?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T enables 32 copper access ports, whereas N3K-C3064TQ-10GT enables 48. Both configurations carry four QSFP+ uplinks and are discontinued. The 32-port configuration matches partially populated legacy server racks; the 48-port configuration matches deployments requiring the full copper-port population without the separate 16-port activation upgrade.

What is the difference between N3K-C3064TQ-32T and N3K-C3064-T-FA-L3?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T includes Base licensing, while N3K-C3064-T-FA-L3 bundles Base and LAN Enterprise licensing. Both models are discontinued. The standalone configuration matches legacy purchases with separately specified routing entitlements; the bundle matches legacy configurations requiring advanced routing functions such as BGP and full EIGRP within the original order.

What is the difference between N3K-C3064TQ-32T and N9K-C93108TC-FX3P?

N3K-C3064TQ-32T carries four 40G uplinks, whereas N9K-C93108TC-FX3P provides six 100G uplinks and 48 copper access ports. The replacement chain reaches the latter through a discontinued intermediate model. The older configuration serves legacy sparing requirements; the successor addresses purchases requiring native 100G aggregation and a larger copper-port population.
