N6004-4FEX-10G is a Cisco Nexus 6004 data center bundle containing a non-EF chassis, four 10G fabric extenders, and fabric extender transceivers. The Layer 3 chassis combines 48 fixed 40 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with four expansion slots, rather than the eight-slot arrangement of the later EF generation. N6K-C6004-M12Q expansion modules provide additional 40 Gigabit Ethernet/FCoE connectivity; specify the installed module inventory separately on the order. The discontinued N6004-4FEX-1G bundle instead contains four 1G fabric extenders, making the extender speed an important distinction when matching an existing installation.

3300W maximum chassis power provides the upper electrical-planning figure, while 2800W typical operating power represents a separate operating point. N6004-4FEX-10G uses Cisco NX-OS, with a console management connection available for local administration. The Nexus 6000 Series uses unified crossbar fabric and unified port controller ASICs. Fixed QSFP+ interfaces support optical or direct-attach connections, while expansion capacity depends on the installed modules. The chassis provides no RJ-45 server-access ports or PoE endpoint power. AC and DC power configurations are supported, and the power architecture accommodates grid redundancy; the actual supply configuration must match the ordered equipment and site power arrangement.
ORM Systems supplies N6004-4FEX-10G new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for clean boot, rated-speed port links, and optics bay recognition, then firmware verified and wiped to factory default. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, plus 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco warranty and service ended December 31, 2020. Specify condition, quantity, airflow, included components, and accessories on the purchase order. Enterprise and volume orders support accepted POs, government Net-30, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When an existing data center needs replacement inventory, airflow orientation belongs on the purchase order alongside the catalog PID. Front-to-back and back-to-front configurations serve different aisle arrangements; match the installed equipment rather than treating the chassis name as sufficient. Confirm the required direction before allocation.
A lab order intended for N6K-C6004-M12Q expansion-module testing needs a defined change procedure alongside the hardware. Expansion modules must be powered off before removal, even when the chassis remains operating. Include the intended module inventory and the removal sequence in the staging plan before ordering.
Cisco-supported production hardware
N6004-4FEX-10G passed its last date of support on December 31, 2020. A deployment requiring active Cisco hardware support cannot use this discontinued bundle.
Eight removable expansion module bays
The non-EF Nexus 6004 chassis has four expansion bays rather than eight. An expansion plan requiring eight removable port-module slots exceeds this generation's physical capacity.

N6004-4FEX-10G identifies a Nexus 6004 chassis bundle with four 10G fabric extenders and fabric extender transceivers. N6004 names the chassis, 4FEX denotes the four fabric extenders, and 10G denotes their Ethernet speed class. The PID belongs to the non-EF Nexus 6004 generation, not the later extensible-fixed version.
Cisco NX-OS provides management for the Nexus 6004, including a local console management connection on the chassis. Plan console access during installation and record the intended software configuration with the hardware order. The fabric extender bundle should not be treated as an unmanaged desktop switch.
N6004-4FEX-10G is discontinued: end of sale was December 30, 2015, and Cisco support ended December 31, 2020. New sealed condition does not restart these milestones. For an order maintaining an existing installation, evaluate hardware condition and replacement inventory separately from any requirement for Cisco service coverage.
ORM Systems offers N6004-4FEX-10G new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. Cisco's hardware warranty and service ended December 31, 2020; ORM coverage is separate.
QSFP-40G-SR4 and QSFP-40G-CSR4 are 40G optics for the Nexus 6004, with multimode fiber reach of 100m and 300m, respectively. N6004-4FEX-10G includes fabric extender transceivers, but external network links need their own interface and cabling specification. Specify optic PIDs and fiber reach rather than generic 40G optics.
The Nexus 6004 supports AC and DC power supplies across six chassis positions. N55-PAC-1100W and N55-PAC-1100W-B provide opposite airflow directions, while N55-PDC-1100W provides DC input. Match the installed power arrangement and airflow before finalizing the component list; do not assume every supplied configuration uses the same power-supply variant.
The Nexus 6004 chassis in N6004-4FEX-10G occupies 4RU and measures 177 mm high, 439 mm wide, and 762 mm deep. Check cabinet depth, mounting arrangements, and servicing clearance before ordering. The complete purchase also includes multiple fabric extenders, so the chassis allocation alone is not the complete installation footprint.
N6K-C6004-M12Q is the 12-port 40 Gigabit Ethernet/FCoE expansion module for the non-EF Nexus 6004 chassis in N6004-4FEX-10G. Four chassis expansion slots are available in this generation. Specify the actual installed module inventory separately from the bundle PID, particularly when replacing hardware configured for an existing installation.
N6004-4FEX-10G bundles four 10G fabric extenders, whereas N6004-4FEX-1G bundles four 1G fabric extenders. Both are discontinued non-EF Nexus 6004 configurations. The 10G version addresses an existing 10G fabric extender requirement; the 1G version matches an existing 1G configuration. Match the installed server-access requirement rather than treating these PIDs as interchangeable.
N6004-6FEX-10G includes six 10G fabric extenders, while N6004-4FEX-10G includes four. The difference is bundle quantity, not a faster fabric extender speed class. Both configurations are discontinued. The four-extender bundle matches a replacement order requiring four units; the six-extender bundle corresponds to an existing requirement for six units.
