Centralized Fabric Extender Aggregation for Data Centers

N6001P-6FEX-1G combines a Nexus 6001P parent switch with six Gigabit fabric extenders for centralized data center access. The parent provides 48 fixed 1/10G SFP+ interfaces and four fixed 40G QSFP+ interfaces in a 1U chassis; the 1G designation describes the bundled extenders, not the parent's uplink speed. Base NX-OS software provides Layer 2 switching, with routing enabled through additional licenses. The optical parent is non-PoE and serves server connectivity and fabric extender aggregation rather than powered campus endpoints. The discontinued N6001P-4FEX-1G package reduces the included extender quantity to four. Within the Nexus 6000 family, this bundle represents a parent-and-extender architecture rather than a single copper access switch.

Technical Details

1280 Gbps switching capacity gives the parent chassis wire-speed forwarding across its fixed interfaces. PVRST+, MSTP and LACP support Layer 2 topology control and aggregated connections, while vPC provides a multichassis connectivity option rather than conventional switch stacking. N6001P-6FEX-1G supports administration through the NX-OS CLI, with console access, SSHv2 and Telnet, plus SNMP and XML NETCONF integration. Cisco DCNM provides a separate graphical management path. DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection and IP source guard provide access-security controls. For external fiber connections, SFP-10G-SR supports multimode fiber, SFP-10G-LR supports single-mode fiber and QSFP-40G-SR4 supports 40G multimode links. Select those connections independently from the fabric extender interconnects. The Nexus 6001P remains a fixed-port switch: transceiver selection changes the connection medium, not the chassis architecture.

Ordering

ORM Systems offers N6001P-6FEX-1G new sealed or certified refurbished: new hardware carries up to a 3-year extended warranty, refurbished hardware up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware coverage ended April 30, 2022; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, every port linking at rated speed, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and complete itemized bundle on the purchase order. PO accepted, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume orders across UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Support and migration planning

Cisco service for N6001P-6FEX-1G ended April 30, 2022. Its direct replacement, N5672UP-6FEX-1G, also ended sale on April 30, 2018; N9K-C93180YC-FX3 is a later migration endpoint, not an equivalent six-extender package.

Routing licenses are separate

Routed deployments require additional software entitlement: N6K-BAS1K9 enables Layer 3 Base, while N6001-LAN1K9 adds Layer 3 Enterprise features. Individual feature licenses and Cisco ONE software suites are separate purchasing paths.

Itemize the complete bundle

N6001P-6FEX-1G needs an itemized order covering the parent, fabric extenders and interconnects. Parent port counts, dimensions and power arrangements describe the switch chassis, not aggregate hardware across the complete package.

Best For

Server Rack Consolidation

When several server racks need a common control point, the parent switch supports 24 fabric extenders in Layer 2 operation. Expansion planning must reserve fabric-facing connections and verify extender compatibility with the intended software release; specify the rack-by-rack attachment plan and interconnect quantities before the PO.

Lab And Staging

When a staging network must reproduce production server traffic, 9216-byte jumbo-frame support gives the test plan a specific frame-size ceiling. Verify the intended end-to-end MTU, prepare the configuration and recovery procedure, and specify the required interfaces and test connections before placing the PO.

Not Suitable If

Active Cisco hardware support

Cisco support ended April 30, 2022. N9K-C93180YC-FX3 is a currently orderable migration endpoint, but it is a standalone switch rather than a six-extender bundle.

Native 100G distribution connections

The parent has fixed 40G QSFP+ uplinks, not 100G interfaces. N9K-C93180YC-FX3 provides 100G connectivity but requires a separately specified attachment architecture.

Questions & Answers

What does the N6001P-6FEX-1G part number mean?

N6001P-6FEX-1G identifies a Nexus 6001P chassis bundled with six 1G fabric extenders and fabric extender transceivers. N6001P identifies the parent, 6FEX specifies the extender quantity, and 1G describes their attachment class. The suffix does not limit the parent switch to Gigabit uplinks.

How is N6001P-6FEX-1G managed?

N6001P-6FEX-1G uses the NX-OS CLI through console, SSHv2 or Telnet, with in-band and dedicated management-port access. Additional interfaces include SNMP and XML NETCONF. Cisco DCNM supplies graphical management, while Cisco Fabric Manager and CiscoWorks LMS are also supported management applications.

What is the lifecycle status of N6001P-6FEX-1G?

N6001P-6FEX-1G ended sale on April 30, 2017, and Cisco support ended April 30, 2022. Software maintenance ended April 30, 2018, followed by vulnerability and security support on April 29, 2020. A retained deployment cannot depend on renewed Cisco hardware service.

What condition and warranty options does ORM Systems offer for N6001P-6FEX-1G?

ORM Systems offers N6001P-6FEX-1G 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 cover 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original 1-year limited hardware warranty coverage ended with Cisco service on April 30, 2022.

Which software licenses enable routing on N6001P-6FEX-1G?

N6001P-6FEX-1G starts with Layer 2 system software; N6K-BAS1K9 enables Layer 3 Base with a 256-dynamic-route limit. N6001-LAN1K9 adds Layer 3 Enterprise functions including BGP, full EIGRP and IS-IS. Feature licenses can be purchased individually or through Cisco ONE software suites. Confirm the entitlement included with the order.

How many ports does the Nexus 6001P parent provide?

The Nexus 6001P parent provides 48 fixed 1/10G SFP+ interfaces and four fixed 40G QSFP+ interfaces. The bundled fabric extenders are separate chassis, so their host interfaces are additional to these parent ports. The parent's copper management connection is not a server access port.

How is the Nexus 6001P powered and cooled?

The Nexus 6001P parent ships with two power supplies and three fans, with AC input specified at 94-240V. Front-to-back and back-to-front airflow configurations are available. Confirm airflow direction and the installed supply configuration when specifying replacement hardware, rather than treating all parent chassis as identically equipped.

What is the difference between N6001P-6FEX-1G and N6001P-6FEX-10G?

N6001P-6FEX-1G includes six 1G fabric extenders, whereas N6001P-6FEX-10G includes six 10G fabric extenders. Both packages are discontinued. The Gigabit package matches retained server attachments operating at 1G; the 10G package addresses higher-speed extender attachments without changing the included extender quantity.

What is the difference between N6001P-6FEX-1G and N6001P-4FEX-1G?

N6001P-6FEX-1G includes six 1G fabric extenders, while N6001P-4FEX-1G includes four. Both are discontinued parent-and-extender packages with the same stated extender speed class. The six-extender package addresses a larger retained attachment footprint; the four-extender package corresponds to a smaller existing extender requirement.

What is the difference between N6001P-6FEX-1G and N9K-C93180YC-FX3?

N6001P-6FEX-1G is a discontinued parent-and-six-extender package, whereas N9K-C93180YC-FX3 is a currently orderable standalone switch. The later migration endpoint is not an equivalent bundled replacement. The older package addresses retained extender deployments; the newer switch requires a separately specified server attachment and interconnection design.
