Fiber Connectivity for Data Center Racks

N3K-C3464C concentrates 64 40/100G QSFP28 data interfaces in a fixed, programmable data center switch, alongside two 10G SFP+ ports. The Nexus 3000 chassis runs NX-OS with base Layer 2 switching in a Rack-Mount 2U format. Fiber-connected servers and fabric links, rather than copper access endpoints, define its connection plan. Discontinued sibling N3K-C34180YC combines 48 10/25G interfaces with six 40/100G interfaces, giving it a different connection mix. The Cisco Nexus 3464C configuration should identify the optical connections, airflow direction, power components, and software entitlements separately rather than treating the chassis identifier as a complete bill of materials.

Technical Details

12800 Gbps switching capacity supports wire-rate forwarding across the data interfaces. 5200 Mpps forwarding capacity provides the packet-rate ceiling for traffic planning. N3K-C3464C has 16 GB of system memory; its separate 128 GB SSD provides storage rather than additional DRAM. A 22 MB packet buffer accommodates traffic awaiting transmission. Management options include the NX-OS CLI, NX-API, XML interfaces, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager, with Python available for automation. Dedicated management connections separate administration from the front-panel data-port schedule. PoE output is absent, so attached equipment needs another power source. Power and thermal planning should follow the chassis limits rather than assumptions based on its interface count.

Ordering

Order N3K-C3464C new sealed or certified refurbished, specifying condition and included components on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including rated-speed port links and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM warranties are up to a 3-year extended term for new and up to 1 year for certified refurbished; both have 30-day returns, terms apply, while Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware warranty ended October 31, 2025. Enterprise and volume purchasing includes PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement, and regional stock/RMA in the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Routing entitlement requires confirmation

N3K-C3464C routing orders need an entitlement check: legacy perpetual LAN Enterprise N3K-LAN2K9 is no longer sold, while NX-OS Essentials subscriptions start at three years. Confirm the software release and license ownership separately from hardware condition.

Discontinued hardware sourcing

N3K-C3464C left Cisco sale on October 26, 2020. N9K-C9364C-GX is the current replacement; N3K-C3464C-RF identifies Cisco remanufactured hardware, not ORM certified refurbishment.

Best For

Mixed-Speed Fabric Expansion

When a fabric expansion must connect lower-speed server links without changing the chassis family, the QSFP interfaces support 4x10G and 4x25G breakout operation. Build the connection schedule around the selected breakout mode, then specify compatible fan-out cabling and the remote interface requirements before the purchase order.

Forwarding Profile Staging

When staging a change in forwarding behavior, selectable NX-OS profiles change how resources are allocated. The classic L2/L3 profile allows 7000 ingress ACL entries; the L3-heavy profile allows 1000. Define the required policy count and match the acceptance test to the intended profile before approving the order.

Multi-Site Configuration Standardization

When standardizing staging across several sites, Power-on Auto Provisioning supports touchless bootup and configuration. NX-OS 9.2(3) is the minimum software release for the Nexus 3464C. Record the intended release, startup configuration, provisioning workflow, and acceptance checks on the order so each unit follows the same commissioning plan.

Not Suitable If

Ongoing Cisco manufacturer support

Cisco service ended October 31, 2025, so this chassis cannot satisfy an active manufacturer-support requirement. N9K-C9364C-GX is the current replacement to evaluate for a supported hardware purchase.

Native copper server data connections

N3K-C3464C provides optical data interfaces rather than RJ-45 access ports. Its RJ-45 connection is reserved for management and cannot serve as a copper server data connection.

Questions & Answers

What does the N3K-C3464C part number identify?

N3K-C3464C is the complete chassis identifier for the Nexus 3464C programmable switch, ordered with 64 40/100G QSFP28 ports. The model designation is 3464C; this PID has no separately listed license-tier suffix. Airflow, power configuration, and any added software entitlement must be specified separately on the order.

How is N3K-C3464C managed?

N3K-C3464C supports NX-OS CLI management, XML and JSON APIs through NX-API, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager. Automation options include Python, Puppet, Chef, and an OpenStack plug-in. Local console access uses RS-232; dedicated RJ-45 and SFP management interfaces are separate from the data ports.

Is N3K-C3464C end of life?

Yes, N3K-C3464C is discontinued: Cisco sales ended October 26, 2020, and support ended October 31, 2025. Cisco service is no longer available for this chassis. The current migration choice is N9K-C9364C-GX; purchasing new sealed old stock does not restart the retired support lifecycle.

What condition and warranty options does ORM Systems offer for N3K-C3464C?

ORM Systems offers N3K-C3464C new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Both conditions include 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware warranty is no longer active because Cisco support ended October 31, 2025.

Which licenses apply to N3K-C3464C?

N3K-C3464C uses legacy LAN Enterprise N3K-LAN2K9 for routing or the NX-OS Essentials subscription path, starting at three years with N3K-ES-XF2-3Y. Legacy feature-based licenses are discontinued. Optional N3K-STR2K9 covers INT and postcard telemetry, while NDB-FX-SWT-K9 covers Nexus Data Broker aggregation; hardware condition does not itself establish these entitlements.

What is the difference between N3K-C3464C and N3K-C34180YC?

N3K-C3464C has 64 40/100G QSFP28 interfaces, while N3K-C34180YC combines 48 10/25G interfaces with six 40/100G interfaces. Both models are discontinued and past Cisco support. The retired 3464C matches existing high-density 100G configurations; the retired 34180YC has the connection mix for an installed 25G-heavy top-of-rack configuration.

What is the difference between N3K-C3464C and N9K-C9364C-GX?

N9K-C9364C-GX remains available to order, while N3K-C3464C passed its last Cisco support date on October 31, 2025. Both carry 64 40/100G QSFP28 interfaces. The GX model is the current migration choice; the retired 3464C is relevant where an existing installation specifically requires that chassis.

How much power does the Nexus 3464C consume?

The Nexus 3464C consumes 460W typically and has a 1000W maximum power figure. Use the maximum when reserving rack power rather than treating the typical value as a ceiling. AC, DC, and high-voltage configurations require the appropriate supply selection and matching site input.

Which airflow and power parts fit N3K-C3464C?

N3K-C3464C supports NXA-PAC-1200W-PE with port-side exhaust and NXA-PAC-1200W-PI with port-side intake. Corresponding fan options are NXA-FAN-160CFM-PE and NXA-FAN-160CFM-PI. Specify the intended airflow direction, identify each included component, and confirm the actual power configuration and local input requirements before releasing the purchase order.

Can the Nexus 3464C route OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP?

Yes, the Nexus 3464C supports full OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP when the required Layer 3 entitlement is installed. Those protocols are not part of the base Layer 2 configuration. Match the intended routing features to the installed software release and entitled license before approving the equipment schedule.

What data ports and breakout options does N3K-C3464C support?

N3K-C3464C provides 64 QSFP28 data ports supporting 40G or 100G, plus two 10G SFP+ ports. QSFP breakout modes include 4x10G and 4x25G. Select optics and cabling for the intended mode and remote interface; the fixed chassis does not require an uplink expansion card.
