Copper Server Connectivity for Data Center Racks

N3K-C31108TCV-32T is a copper top-of-rack data center switch with 32 enabled 10GBASE-T access ports and six fixed QSFP28 uplinks supporting 100G or 40G operation. The Nexus 31108TCV-32T ships with base Layer 2 software and does not supply PoE to attached endpoints. Its 1U rack chassis belongs to the Cisco Nexus 3100-V family, placing copper downlinks at the server edge and higher-speed uplinks toward aggregation. Copper interfaces also support 100Mbps and 1Gbps connections, allowing lower-speed server links to remain in the port plan. The discontinued N3K-C31108TC-V enables 48 copper access ports rather than 32.

N3K-C31108TCV-32T price is $11,896.50, a 50.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $23,922.00. N3K-C31108TCV-32T is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

470W maximum power draw establishes the electrical-sizing ceiling; the 260W typical operating figure does not replace that ceiling in circuit planning. 16 MB shared buffering provides a common pool for traffic bursts. N3K-C31108TCV-32T supports 16000 ingress ACL entries and 1000 egress entries, so directional filter placement matters. RSTP supports 512 spanning-tree instances and MSTP supports 64, placing different limits on topology segmentation. Jumbo-frame support reaches 9216 bytes, requiring matching MTU settings along the traffic path. Virtual Port Channel, or vPC, supplies Layer 2 multipathing, with 64 EtherChannels and 32 ports per EtherChannel defining channel-aggregation limits. Management uses the NX-OS CLI, NETCONF-based XML, SNMP versions 1, 2 and 3, or Cisco Data Center Network Manager. Role-based access control limits operations by assigned user role. Full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP and VXLAN require a routing entitlement such as legacy N3K-LAN1K9; these features are not included in the base Layer 2 software.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies N3K-C31108TCV-32T in new sealed and certified refurbished condition; certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, every network port linking at rated speed, and QSFP optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. New orders include up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, and certified refurbished orders include up to 1 year; every condition has 30-day returns, and terms apply. Specify condition, quantity and delivery region on the purchase order. PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume procurement, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Routing entitlement selection

Routing orders for N3K-C31108TCV-32T can use NX-OS Essentials or Advantage subscriptions starting at three years, or perpetual NX-OS Advantage. Legacy N3K-LAN1K9 licensing is discontinued; specify the entitlement path separately from chassis condition.

Service renewal cutoff

Service renewal planning for N3K-C31108TCV-32T must account for the November 29, 2026 renewal cutoff. Security-vulnerability support ended August 30, 2025, so an active hardware contract does not extend security-remedy availability.

Uplink mode staging

QSFP port-mode changes require a reboot on N3K-C31108TCV-32T. Specify 100G/40G operation or 40G/four-way 10G breakout for the right-most QSFP ports before staging, rather than scheduling a live mode change.

N3K-C31108TCV-32T Use Case

High-Density Hyperconverged Infrastructure Deployment

Deploy the N3K-C31108TCV-32T as a leaf switch in a hyperconverged data center rack, leveraging 32 10GBase-T RJ-45 ports for server and storage node access and 6 QSFP28 uplinks to spine switches. This delivers ultra-low latency, 100GbE fabric aggregation and seamless Cisco ACI integration, enabling linear scale-out performance, simplified management and reduced TCO.

Campus Core Network Backbone Modernization

Upgrade a global campus network backbone with the Nexus 31108TCV-32T to provide 10GBase-T connectivity to edge switches and workstations plus 6 QSFP28 ports for 100GbE core interconnects. The result is high-throughput VoIP and video conferencing, optimized traffic engineering and future-proof capacity for digital workplace services.

Real-Time Video Surveillance & Analytics Platform

Scale an enterprise or smart-city security solution by connecting IP cameras to the N3K-C31108TCV-32T’s 32 10G RJ-45 ports and aggregating video streams over 6 QSFP28 links to an AI analytics cluster. This architecture ensures sub-millisecond latency, high-density HD video processing and on-premises compliance, improving situational awareness and bandwidth efficiency.

Best For

Copper Port Expansion

Rack plans that reserve copper server connections for later expansion can use existing inactive interfaces rather than specify a second chassis. N3K-16T-UPG= activates 16 additional 10GBASE-T ports on N3K-C31108TCV-32T. Include the expansion entitlement separately and confirm its installation before assigning those interfaces to the server connection schedule.

Cooling Spare Procurement

Maintenance orders for an installed Nexus 3100-V fleet need cooling spares available before removal because a hot-swap must finish within one minute. Select NXA-FAN-30CFM-F for port-side exhaust or NXA-FAN-30CFM-B for port-side intake, and match the spare to the existing airflow direction before issuing the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

Native 2.5G or 5G copper connectivity

N3K-C31108TCV-32T copper ports support 100M, 1G and 10G, not 2.5G or 5G. Current replacement N9K-C93108TC-FX3P adds those intermediate speeds and increases copper-port density to 48.

Continuing Cisco security-vulnerability support

Security-vulnerability support for N3K-C31108TCV-32T ended August 30, 2025. N9K-C93108TC-FX3P is the current replacement to evaluate for a new supported deployment, with 48 copper ports.

Questions & Answers

What does the N3K-C31108TCV-32T part number mean?

N3K-C31108TCV-32T is the Nexus 31108TCV-32T configuration: 32 enabled 10GBASE-T RJ-45 ports plus six QSFP28 ports. The N3K prefix identifies the Nexus chassis family, C31108TCV identifies the model, and 32T identifies its copper-port configuration. LAN Enterprise routing is a separate entitlement rather than a license suffix.

How is N3K-C31108TCV-32T managed?

N3K-C31108TCV-32T is managed through the NX-OS CLI, a NETCONF-based XML interface, SNMP versions 1, 2 and 3, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager. The RS-232 serial console provides local access; the separate Gigabit Ethernet management port supports management connectivity. Specify the management approach before staging.

Is N3K-C31108TCV-32T end of life?

N3K-C31108TCV-32T is discontinued: Cisco end-of-sale was August 31, 2022, and the last date of support is August 31, 2027. Security-vulnerability support ended August 30, 2025. Contract renewals close November 29, 2026; remaining Cisco support requires applicable entitlement under an active service contract or eligible warranty.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for N3K-C31108TCV-32T?

ORM Systems offers N3K-C31108TCV-32T new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Returns are 30 days for either condition; terms apply. Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty is subject to eligibility and ends no later than August 31, 2027.

Which licensing paths apply to N3K-C31108TCV-32T?

N3K-C31108TCV-32T supports NX-OS Essentials subscriptions from release 9.3(1), NX-OS Advantage subscriptions from 9.3(3), and device-bound perpetual NX-OS Advantage. Subscription terms start at three years. Legacy N3K-LAN1K9 LAN Enterprise licensing is discontinued; the factory-installed N3K-32X-LIC port entitlement is separate from any optional routing entitlement.

How many copper ports are enabled on N3K-C31108TCV-32T?

N3K-C31108TCV-32T ships with 32 enabled 10GBASE-T ports under the factory-installed N3K-32X-LIC entitlement. The same hardware has 16 additional copper interfaces that N3K-16T-UPG= can activate. That expansion changes the usable access-port count, not the six QSFP28 uplinks or the separate requirement for optional routing rights.

What uplinks does the Nexus 31108TCV-32T provide?

The Nexus 31108TCV-32T provides six fixed QSFP28 uplinks supporting 100G and 40G operation, with four-way 10G breakout available. The right-most QSFP ports have alternative 100G/40G and 40G/four-way 10G modes. Changing that mode requires a reboot, so select the operating mode before staging connected devices and cabling.

Does N3K-C31108TCV-32T include BGP and OSPF?

No, N3K-C31108TCV-32T includes base Layer 2 software; BGP and OSPF require a routing entitlement. Legacy N3K-LAN1K9 LAN Enterprise unlocks full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP and VXLAN. Existing licenses need to be verified independently of N3K-32X-LIC, which activates ports rather than routing features.

Which power supplies can the Nexus 31108TCV-32T use?

The Nexus 31108TCV-32T accepts NXA-PAC-650W-PI or NXA-PAC-650W-PE AC supplies and NXA-PDC-930W-PI or NXA-PDC-930W-PE DC supplies. AC input is 100-240V; DC input is -40 to -72V. The order should identify the installed supply PIDs and airflow direction rather than assume that every available chassis has an AC configuration.

What airflow options does the Nexus 3100-V offer?

Nexus 3100-V switches support port-side exhaust with NXA-FAN-30CFM-F and port-side intake with NXA-FAN-30CFM-B. The order should align cooling selection with the chosen power-supply PIDs and rack intake/exhaust direction. A cooling-module hot-swap must finish within one minute, so specify the existing airflow configuration when ordering replacement cooling parts.

What is the difference between N3K-C31108TCV-32T and N3K-C31108TC-V?

N3K-C31108TC-V has 48 enabled 10GBASE-T access ports, while N3K-C31108TCV-32T starts with 32 enabled ports on the same hardware. Both are discontinued. The former suits an existing 48-port configuration; the latter suits a legacy rack needing fewer active copper connections and a separately licensed expansion path.

What is the difference between N3K-C31108TCV-32T and N9K-C93108TC-FX3P?

N9K-C93108TC-FX3P supports native 2.5G and 5G copper Ethernet, while N3K-C31108TCV-32T supports 100M, 1G and 10G copper speeds. N9K-C93108TC-FX3P is the current replacement. The older model fits existing 10GBASE-T fleets; the replacement addresses buyers requiring intermediate copper speeds and a current orderable chassis.
