Modular Data Center Aggregation With Dedicated Supervisor Slots
N7K-C7004 is a four-slot modular data center switch chassis with dedicated supervisor and I/O positions, rather than an integrated fixed-port access switch. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series supports access, aggregation, and high-speed core roles, with connections and network functions determined by the installed components. All major modules are accessible from the front, including power supplies and the N7K-C7004-FAN fan tray. The Cisco Nexus 7000 4-Slot Switch provides a horizontal chassis configuration for component-level builds and existing-system replacements. The discontinued N7K-C7009 accepts higher-rated power-supply classes, so power hardware must not be treated as interchangeable across these chassis sizes. Selecting the chassis establishes the enclosure, not the complete forwarding or routing configuration.
N7K-C7004 price for new stock is $19,818.14. N7K-C7004 refurb price is $534.44. N7K-C7004 is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details
1920 Gbps maximum switching capacity defines the upper chassis envelope; installed I/O modules determine usable backplane capacity. 1440 Mpps IPv4 unicast forwarding is the configured-system maximum with supervisor hardware and the built-in fabric, not an as-delivered capability of an empty chassis. N7K-C7004 supports a scriptable NX-OS CLI, XML interfaces, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager web services when equipped with compatible supervisors. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS require Enterprise Services Package N7K-LAN1K9 rather than being included through the chassis purchase. The N7K-C7004-FAN fan tray incorporates fan and controller redundancy, while its airflow path draws air through the right side and exhausts it at the rear. Status LEDs identify power, fan, supervisor, and I/O conditions for local checks. Separate fabric modules are unnecessary because the local I/O fabrics connect directly through the backplane. Module selection therefore governs both interface availability and the operating fabric configuration.

Best For
Port Density Consolidation
During a density consolidation, the chassis supports configurations reaching 96 ports at 1G or 10G, 12 ports at 40G, or four ports at 100G. These are module-dependent ceilings, not included interfaces. Match the required connection speeds and quantities to the actual I/O population before releasing the PO.
Lab And Staging
When staging hardware for an existing Nexus environment, the four-slot chassis requires NX-OS Release 6.1(2) or later. A chassis purchase alone does not establish the software release used by the completed system. Specify the intended release and verify its compatibility with the selected supervisor and I/O configuration before ordering.
Chassis Spare Preparation
When building a chassis spare for an installed environment, the empty positions need their own configuration plan. N7K-SUP-BLANK= covers unused supervisor positions, while N7K-MODULE-BLANK= covers unused I/O positions. Specify which slots will remain empty and include the corresponding blank covers on the PO.
Not Suitable If
Cisco support beyond February 2027
Cisco support for N7K-C7004 ends February 28, 2027. N9K-C9504 is the replacement chassis, with four line-card slots rather than two I/O slots.
More than two I/O modules
N7K-C7004 has two I/O slots; its remaining two module positions are dedicated to supervisors. N9K-C9504 provides four line-card slots for a larger successor configuration.
Reuse of first-generation supervisors
N7K-C7004 does not accept N7K-SUP1. An existing first-generation supervisor cannot be transferred into this chassis; specify compatible supervisor hardware rather than relying on mechanical fit.

Questions & Answers
What does the N7K-C7004 part number mean?
N7K-C7004 identifies a Cisco Nexus 7000 four-slot chassis rather than a port-count or license-tier bundle. N7K denotes the Nexus 7000 family, while C7004 identifies the four-slot chassis configuration. The base order includes the N7K-C7004-FAN fan tray and cable management, but no power supply.
Is N7K-C7004 a complete switch ready for connections?
N7K-C7004 is a chassis order rather than a ready-to-connect fixed-port switch. The base configuration contains no fixed access or uplink ports; I/O modules determine those connections. Supervisor modules, I/O modules, and power supplies must be specified separately, so the purchase order needs a component-level configuration.
How is N7K-C7004 managed?
A populated N7K-C7004 is managed through the NX-OS scriptable CLI, XML interfaces, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3, and Cisco Data Center Network Manager web services. Compatible supervisor hardware runs that management environment. Specify the management software release alongside the hardware configuration rather than treating the bare chassis as an independently manageable device.
What is the lifecycle status of N7K-C7004?
N7K-C7004 reached end of sale on February 28, 2022, and its last date of Cisco support is February 28, 2027. Service-contract renewals ended May 29, 2026. Remaining Cisco support depends on eligible active entitlement; purchasing the chassis does not restart those milestones or extend the final support date.
What condition and warranty does ORM Systems offer for N7K-C7004?
ORM Systems supplies N7K-C7004 new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty cannot extend beyond the February 28, 2027 last date of support.
Which licensing paths does N7K-C7004 support?
N7K-C7004 supports perpetual feature licenses and subscription-based licensing, with traditional PAK-based or Smart Software Licensing administration. Subscription support begins with NX-OS 8.2(1). Smart Software Licensing requires a Smart Account, and traditional licensing cannot operate simultaneously with Smart Software Licensing. Specify the feature package and entitlement ownership separately from the chassis.
What switching capacity does N7K-C7004 support?
N7K-C7004 supports a maximum switching capacity of 1920 Gbps and maximum IPv4 unicast forwarding of 1440 Mpps in a configured system. Installed I/O modules determine the operating backplane capacity. These chassis ceilings do not mean that an unequipped chassis ships with interfaces or delivers forwarding without supervisor and I/O hardware.
How much rack space does the Nexus 7000 4-Slot Switch require?
The Nexus 7000 4-Slot Switch requires 7RU of rack space and supports installation in a standard EIA data center rack. The chassis measures 309 mm high, 439 mm wide, and 610 mm deep before additional cable-management and door depth. Include N7K-C7004-RMK= when rack-mount hardware is required.
Which older modules cannot be reused in N7K-C7004?
N7K-C7004 cannot use N7K-SUP1, N7K-M132XP-12, N7K-M148GS-11, N7K-M148GT-11, or N7K-F132XP-15. Mechanical resemblance is not sufficient for a transfer between chassis. Existing module inventories must be checked by full PID before a replacement chassis order is released, and separate fabric modules are not used in this chassis.
Does the Nexus 7000 four-slot chassis include redundant power supplies?
The Nexus 7000 four-slot chassis has four power-supply bays and ships without power supplies. Redundant power is therefore an ordered configuration, not an included feature of the chassis PID. Supported supply classes include 3-kW AC or DC and 3.5-kW high-voltage AC/DC; select the supply configuration separately.
What is the difference between N7K-C7004 and N7K-C7009?
N7K-C7004 accepts 3-kW and 3.5-kW supply classes, while discontinued N7K-C7009 accepts 6-kW and 7.5-kW supply classes. This matters when reusing existing power hardware. The four-slot model suits a compatible smaller configuration; the discontinued nine-slot model belongs in legacy-system planning rather than a current successor purchase.
What is the difference between N7K-C7004 and N9K-C9504?
N9K-C9504 provides four line-card slots, whereas N7K-C7004 provides two I/O slots plus two dedicated supervisor slots. N9K-C9504 is the replacement chassis for the discontinued four-slot Nexus 7000 model. The older chassis addresses compatible installed-system requirements; the replacement addresses successor planning with a different line-card slot count.
Does N7K-C7004 include OSPF and BGP licensing?
N7K-C7004 does not include the Enterprise Services Package merely because the chassis has been ordered. License N7K-LAN1K9 enables OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, EIGRP, and associated enterprise routing features on a compatible populated system. Specify the required software entitlement explicitly instead of treating chassis availability as proof that those features are licensed.
