N7K-C7009-B2S2 is a nine-slot modular data center switch bundle containing one N7K-SUP2 supervisor and five N7K-C7009-FAB-2 fabric modules, with power supplies and I/O modules ordered separately. The managed chassis belongs to the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series and runs NX-OS, with Layer 2+ baseline routing and separately licensed advanced Layer 3 services. Network connections come from installed I/O modules rather than fixed access or uplink ports, so the bundle does not arrive as a port-ready switch. Two dedicated supervisor positions accommodate control-plane redundancy, but the supplied hardware occupies only one. The discontinued N7K-C7009-B2S2-R differs by including two N7K-SUP2 supervisors; that packaging distinction matters when matching an order to an existing single-supervisor or dual-supervisor installation.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 price for new stock is $113,738.84, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $227,477.68. N7K-C7009-B2S2 refurb price is $36,684.50. N7K-C7009-B2S2 is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

8800 Gbps is the fully configured chassis switching maximum; usable throughput depends on the installed I/O modules rather than the bundle alone. 5040 Mpps is the chassis maximum for IPv4 unicast forwarding with the corresponding supervisor, fabric, and I/O configuration. N7K-C7009-B2S2 uses a passive midplane, while crossbar fabric ASICs on the I/O and fabric modules perform intermodule switching. Independent variable-speed cooling responds to thermal conditions, and unused slot rows can have their associated fans powered down. The Cisco Nexus 7000 9-Slot Switch exposes a scriptable CLI and XML interfaces, alongside SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3, and Cisco DCNM management. These interfaces support integration with existing operational tooling without implying that a separate built-in browser interface accompanies the chassis. RIP provides baseline dynamic routing. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, and IS-IS require Enterprise Services N7K-LAN1K9, so those advanced routing functions must not be treated as included software entitlements merely because the hardware can support them.
ORM Systems offers N7K-C7009-B2S2 new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, clean boot, and module bay recognition, then firmware verified and wiped to factory default. Specify the required power supplies, I/O configuration, software entitlements, and condition on the purchase order before confirming the assembly. ORM warranties are up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply. Enterprise and volume orders support POs, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

In a hyperscale data center, the N7K-C7009-B2S2-Nexus 7009 Bundle (Chassis, 1×SUP2, 5×FAB2) is deployed as the spine in a leaf-spine fabric. Leveraging five FAB2 modules and the SUP2 supervisor engine, it delivers multi-terabit, non-blocking throughput and ultra-low east-west latency. This architecture consolidation simplifies cabling, accelerates VM-to-VM traffic, and scales linearly as capacity demands grow. Outcome: 30% reduction in inter-rack latency, seamless expansion to hundreds of 40/100 GbE leaf ports, and a future-proof spine fabric without forklift upgrades.
Enterprises running private clouds on VMware NSX or OpenStack use the N7K-C7009-B2S2-Nexus 7009 Bundle as a centralized VXLAN EVPN control plane and hardware forwarding platform. With SUP2-powered VXLAN encapsulation and 5 FAB2 modules for line-rate overlay tunnels, it automates workload mobility, enforces micro-segmentation policies per tenant, and delivers hitless workload migrations. Benefit: 75% faster VLAN provisioning, granular security enforcement at scale, and support for thousands of VXLAN segments per chassis—optimizing multi-tenant isolation and cloud agility.
Tier-1 service providers deploy the N7K-C7009-B2S2-Nexus 7009 Bundle at Internet exchange points and edge POPs to aggregate hundreds of 100 GbE peerings and transit links. The SUP2 engine and FAB2 fabric modules provide line-rate BGP route processing, MPLS forwarding, and hardware-accelerated DDoS protection. Outcome: 99.999% edge availability, seamless scaling to 200+ peering sessions, and 40% lower TCO through consolidated routing and switching in a single chassis.
When consolidating network connections into a modular chassis, size the intended interface mix rather than treating every supported maximum as simultaneous. The nine-slot chassis supports configurations reaching 336 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit ports, 42 40 Gigabit ports, or 14 100 Gigabit ports. Specify the I/O modules and transceivers before the purchase order.
When rebuilding a rack around an existing nine-slot configuration, reserve 14RU and leave side-to-side ventilation unobstructed. N7K-C7009-RMK= is the chassis-specific rack-mount kit. Confirm mounting hardware, neighboring equipment clearance, rack loading, and the space occupied by cable management before adding the chassis to the purchase order.
When stocking an assembly for a chassis exchange, distinguish the enclosure from equipment that will transfer from the installed system. I/O modules, N7K-SUP2 supervisors, and N7K-C7009-FAB-2 fabric modules have front access; power and cooling assemblies have rear access. Specify the transferred components and required service clearances before ordering the spare.
Cisco support beyond February 2027
Cisco support for this discontinued bundle ends February 28, 2027. N9K-C9508 is the chassis migration target and provides eight I/O slots instead of seven.
Mandatory front-to-back rack airflow
The nine-slot chassis uses side-to-side airflow rather than front-to-back cooling. A rack requiring an exclusively front-to-back airflow path does not match this chassis cooling arrangement.
Two supervisors included at delivery
The bundle contains one N7K-SUP2, not two. The second supervisor position remains unpopulated, so the supplied assembly does not provide redundant supervisor operation without additional hardware.

N7K-C7009-B2S2 identifies a Nexus 7000 nine-slot chassis bundle: N7K names the family, C7009 identifies the chassis, B2 identifies the Fabric 2 bundle, and S2 identifies Supervisor 2. The package contains one N7K-SUP2 and five N7K-C7009-FAB-2 modules, without power supplies or I/O modules.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 is managed through a scriptable CLI, XML interfaces, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3, and Cisco DCNM web services. CLI access supports console, SSH, and Telnet sessions. These are chassis management options, not a claim that a separate browser-based switch interface is included with the bundle.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 is discontinued: Cisco sales ended February 28, 2022, and the last date of support is February 28, 2027. New service attachments ended February 28, 2023, and renewals ended May 29, 2026. Remaining Cisco support depends on an existing eligible entitlement, not simply possession of the hardware.
ORM Systems supplies N7K-C7009-B2S2 new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units. Cisco's standard warranty is 1-year limited hardware, bounded by February 28, 2027. Every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 supports perpetual feature licenses and subscription licensing from NX-OS 8.2(1). Enterprise Services N7K-LAN1K9 enables advanced routing; Advanced Services N7K-ADV1K9 enables virtual device contexts. Traditional and Smart Software Licensing are mutually exclusive. Smart licensing requires a Smart Account, and the hardware PID alone does not establish optional software entitlement.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 replaced N7K-C7009-BUN2, whose end-of-sale date was August 15, 2014. The predecessor included an N7K-SUP1 and power supplies; the replacement contains one N7K-SUP2 and omits power supplies. Both bundles are discontinued, so maintaining either configuration requires attention to lifecycle limits rather than treating the replacement relationship as current availability.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 ships without power supplies, and the chassis has two power supply positions for an optionally redundant configuration. Operating power and redundancy therefore depend on separately specified supplies. The included single N7K-SUP2 also means power redundancy must not be confused with supervisor redundancy when reviewing the complete assembly.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 includes no fixed Ethernet access ports or uplinks; network ports come from separately ordered I/O modules. The chassis accommodates seven I/O modules, but that is expansion capacity rather than an included interface count. Match line cards and transceivers to the required media and speeds before approving the configuration.
The Cisco Nexus 7000 9-Slot Switch requires 14RU and uses side-to-side airflow. The chassis measures 622 mm high, 439 mm wide, and 610 mm deep; depth reaches 737 mm with cable management and doors. N7K-C7009-RMK= is the chassis-specific rack-mount kit, and rear service clearance must also be planned.
No, the Nexus 7000 nine-slot chassis supports Fabric 2 modules and does not support Fabric 1 modules. N7K-C7009-B2S2 contains five N7K-C7009-FAB-2 fabric modules. A chassis exchange must preserve the supported fabric generation rather than assuming that fabric equipment from another Nexus 7000 chassis will transfer.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 contains one N7K-SUP2, whereas N7K-C7009-B2S2-R contains two N7K-SUP2 supervisors. Both bundles are discontinued and use the same nine-slot chassis. The single-supervisor bundle matches an installed single-supervisor assembly; the redundant bundle matches an installed dual-supervisor assembly where maintaining that existing hardware configuration is the purchase requirement.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 contains five N7K-C7009-FAB-2 fabric modules, whereas N7K-C7009-BUN2-P2 contains three. Both bundles are discontinued. The five-fabric bundle matches an installed fully populated fabric assembly, while the promotional bundle matches an installed three-fabric configuration; the required fabric population must be specified rather than assumed from the shared chassis.
N7K-C7009-B2S2 provides seven I/O slots, whereas N9K-C9508 provides eight line-card slots. N7K-C7009-B2S2 is discontinued, and N9K-C9508 is the current chassis migration target rather than an equivalent bundle. The older assembly serves existing configuration maintenance; N9K-C9508 serves a replacement design requiring its own component selection.
No, Cisco Refresh N7K-C7009-B2S2-RF is Cisco-remanufactured hardware, while ORM certified refurbishment is a separate condition offering. ORM refurbished managed units are inspected and bench-tested, firmware verified, and wiped to factory default. The hardware condition does not establish ownership of optional software licenses; licensing requirements remain separate from refurbishment.
