Local Forwarding for Small Data Center Deployments
N77-C7702 is the two-slot Nexus 7700 chassis for modular data center switching, not a fixed-port access switch. The enclosure separates the supervisor position from the single I/O position, allowing the selected line card to determine network port density, connector type and Ethernet speed. Within the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series, this design uses local forwarding without separate fabric modules and occupies 3 rack units. The discontinued N77-C7702-S2E-AC bundle includes two N77-AC-3KW power supplies, whereas the chassis-only PID does not. The distinction matters when matching a spare enclosure to components already held in inventory.
N77-C7702 price for new stock is $5,275.20, a 44.8% saving from the Cisco list price of $9,549.00. N77-C7702 refurb price is $1,206.42. N77-C7702 is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details
2400 Gbps maximum local switching capacity sets the chassis ceiling; usable interfaces still depend on the installed I/O module. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP and IS-IS require Enterprise Services N77-LAN1K9 rather than following automatically from the hardware purchase. N77-C7702 uses the installed supervisor for NX-OS configuration, with serial console CLI, out-of-band Ethernet management and Cisco DCNM available for operations. SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 provide monitoring paths, while XML and Python interfaces support automation. The three variable-speed fans in N77-C7702-FAN provide front-to-back airflow, and the rear-access tray determines where maintenance access is needed. For the Nexus 7702, power planning follows the assembled configuration: the selected input supply, module load and redundancy mode determine the available operating power. Combined power mode provides no power redundancy; power-supply redundancy and input-source redundancy are separate operating choices.
Ordering
Order N77-C7702 in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, and specify chassis-only scope separately from any required components. Certified refurbished chassis are inspected and bench-tested for module bay recognition and fan status; new hardware carries ORM's up to 3-year extended warranty, while certified refurbished hardware carries up to 1 year. Returns are available for 30 days in every condition, terms apply; Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty is subject to eligibility and cannot extend beyond October 31, 2028. Submit the component inventory and quantities with the PO; ORM Systems accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government, and provides RMA with advance replacement.

N77-C7702 Use Case
Enterprise Core Routing Scalability in High-Traffic Data Centers
A global financial services firm deploys the N77-C7702-Nexus 7700 2 Slot Chassis in its primary data center to consolidate multiple 100GbE core routers into a compact, modular platform. By populating two high-density line cards, the IT team boosts throughput by 40%, reduces rack footprint by 50%, and simplifies capacity upgrades without forklift replacements. Outcome: Seamless traffic scaling, reduced latency, and predictable TCO growth for mission-critical applications.
Cloud Service Provider Elasticity and Pay-As-You-Grow Infrastructure
A regional cloud provider integrates the N77-C7702 chassis with virtualized network functions to launch new IaaS services in under 48 hours. The chassis’ modular design allows on-demand addition of 100G/400G line cards as customer demand spikes. Outcome: Accelerated service provisioning, optimized capital expenditure, and zero service interruptions during capacity expansions.
Campus Aggregation for Multi-Gigabit University Networks
A large university upgrades its aging aggregation layer by installing the N77-C7702 chassis to support evolving IoT, VoIP and video-streaming demands. With hot-swappable fans and redundant power options planned, the network operations center achieves 30% faster failure recovery and maintains 99.99% uptime SLA. Outcome: Enhanced user experience, simplified maintenance workflows, and future-proof network growth.
Best For
Legacy Chassis Sparing
When a failed chassis must be replaced without changing the installed component inventory, record the existing supervisor, I/O module and power configuration before requesting a chassis-only order. ORM Systems supports regional stock and RMA handling in the UK, EU, US and MEA; specify the receiving region on the PO.
Maintenance Lab Staging
When a maintenance team stages a replacement outside the production rack, match the intended supervisor and I/O module to the NX-OS release before loading the configuration. The two-slot chassis requires NX-OS 7.2 or later, so include the release target and component inventory in the staging instructions attached to the PO.
Spare Configuration Standardization
When standardizing legacy spare configurations across racks, an unused power bay needs N77-3KPS-BLANK-H= to preserve the intended airflow. Make the blanking hardware an explicit line item instead of assuming every secondhand chassis retains it. Verify the number of unused bays against the intended power configuration before releasing the PO.
Not Suitable If
In-chassis supervisor redundancy
N77-C7702 has one supervisor slot, so a second control module cannot provide in-chassis failover. Dual-supervisor operation requires a different chassis architecture.
N77-F248XP-23E module reuse
N77-C7702 excludes N77-F248XP-23E from its supported I/O modules. An installed inventory based on that module cannot move unchanged into this enclosure; revise the module selection before ordering.

Questions & Answers
What does the N77-C7702 part number mean?
N77-C7702 identifies a Nexus 7700 two-slot chassis: N77 denotes the Nexus 7700 family, and C7702 denotes this chassis configuration. The part number has no access-port, PoE or license-tier suffix. The package includes N77-C7702-FAN but excludes power supplies; specify additional operating components separately.
How is the Nexus 7700 2-Slot Switch managed?
The Nexus 7700 2-Slot Switch is managed through an installed supervisor using serial-console CLI, out-of-band Ethernet CLI, Cisco DCNM and SNMPv1/v2c/v3. XML, Python, TCL, EEM, OnePK and OpenFlow interfaces provide additional automation paths. Establish the initial management connection and IP configuration before connecting the assembled system to its production management network.
Is N77-C7702 discontinued?
N77-C7702 is discontinued: end of sale was October 12, 2023, and the last date of Cisco support is October 31, 2028. Software maintenance ended October 11, 2024. Eligible existing service coverage governs support before that deadline; Nexus 9500 and Nexus 9800 are the migration families.
What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for N77-C7702?
N77-C7702 is offered new sealed or certified refurbished, with ORM warranties of up to 3 years extended for new hardware and up to 1 year for refurbished hardware. Every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty remains eligibility-dependent, with Cisco support ending October 31, 2028.
Which licensing paths apply to N77-C7702?
N77-C7702 uses separate NX-OS feature licenses through traditional PAK licensing or Smart Software Licensing, which requires a Smart Account. Perpetual licenses and term subscriptions are supported. For SD-Access configurations using N77-SUP2E and M3 modules, Cisco DNA Advantage has a three-year minimum and requires LAN Enterprise N77-LAN1K9; Cisco DNA Premier packaging is another option.
Which network ports does N77-C7702 provide?
N77-C7702 has no fixed network ports; the selected I/O module supplies the interfaces. N77-F348XP-23 provides 48 ports at 1/10GbE, N77-F324FQ-25 provides 24 ports at 40GbE, and N77-F312CK-26 provides 12 ports at 100GbE. Match optics to the selected module and include the module on the PO.
Can the Nexus 7700 2-Slot Switch use redundant power?
Yes, the Nexus 7700 2-Slot Switch supports optional redundant power through two supply bays. Compatible choices are N77-AC-3KW, N77-DC-3KW and N77-HV-3.5KW. Supply redundancy and input-source redundancy use different power modes; specify the intended mode and electrical inputs when assembling the order.
Does N77-C7702 support redundant supervisors?
No, N77-C7702 supports one supervisor, so in-chassis supervisor redundancy is unavailable. The other module slot is reserved for a single I/O module, not a second supervisor. If procurement requires dual control modules in one enclosure, revise the chassis requirement before ordering hardware.
How is the Nexus 7702 mounted?
The Nexus 7702 mounts in a standard 19-inch rack and occupies 3 rack units; N77-C7702-CMK provides the two-post mounting option. Four-post installation is also supported. The chassis weighs 17 kg before N77-C7702-FAN, which weighs 6.1 kg; account for installed modules when checking rack capacity and specify mounting hardware on the order.
What is the difference between N77-C7702 and N77-C7702-S2E-AC?
N77-C7702 omits power supplies, while the discontinued N77-C7702-S2E-AC bundle includes two N77-AC-3KW supplies. Both products reached end of sale on October 12, 2023. Chassis-only orders suit component reuse; the bundle designation identifies the original configuration for buyers matching an existing assembled system.
What is the difference between N77-C7702 and N77-C7706?
N77-C7702 holds one I/O module, while the discontinued N77-C7706 holds four. Both belong to the Nexus 7700 family and are discontinued. The smaller chassis suits like-for-like two-slot replacements; the six-slot model identifies a larger legacy installation needing several line cards, not a current migration destination.
