Modular Data Center Switching With Front-to-Back Cooling

N7K-C7010-B2S2 is a modular data center switch bundle containing one N7K-SUP2 supervisor and five N7K-C7010-FAB-2 fabric modules. Ethernet connectivity comes from separately specified I/O cards rather than built-in access ports, and power supplies are excluded. The Nexus 7000 chassis supports a configurable copper or fiber port mix, with speeds determined by the installed cards. Base NX-OS provides Layer 2+ operation; additional routing capabilities depend on software entitlement. Front-to-back airflow accommodates hot-aisle and cold-aisle arrangements, while integrated cable management separates cabling from module access. The discontinued N7K-C7010-B2S2-R includes two N7K-SUP2 supervisors instead of one, so the single-supervisor bundle must not be mistaken for a redundant-controller assembly.

N7K-C7010-B2S2 price for new stock is $151,651.77, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $303,303.54. N7K-C7010-B2S2 refurb price is $41,619.67. N7K-C7010-B2S2 is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details

9900 Gbps maximum switching capacity represents the chassis ceiling with an appropriate installed configuration, not usable throughput from the bundle alone. 5760 Mpps maximum IPv4 unicast forwarding similarly depends on the configured supervisor, fabric and I/O combination. Static routing and RIPv2 provide baseline routing without an additional feature license; OSPF, BGP, EIGRP and IS-IS require Enterprise Services entitlement associated with the discontinued N7K-LAN1K9 package. N7K-C7010-B2S2 supports scriptable CLI, XML and SNMP integration, with Cisco DCNM providing centralized management and web services. A passive midplane connects the distributed switching hardware rather than performing packet forwarding itself. Front-panel indicators summarize supervisor, fabric, I/O, power and fan status, allowing operators to identify which subsystem requires investigation before opening the chassis.

Ordering

ORM Systems offers N7K-C7010-B2S2 new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, module bay recognition and fan status, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days for every condition; terms apply, while Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty cannot extend beyond February 28, 2027. Specify condition, included-module inventory and software entitlement handling on your PO. Enterprise and volume orders can use PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US and MEA.

N7K-C7010-B2S2 Use Case

High-Performance Data Center Spine for 100GbE Cloud Services

In a global cloud provider’s flagship data center, the N7K-C7010-B2S2-Nexus 7010 Bundle (Chassis,1xSUP2,5xFAB2) operates as the central spine switch aggregating 100GbE leaf nodes. Equipped with Supervisor Engine 2 redundancy and five Fabric modules, it delivers up to 15 Tbps of non-blocking throughput and sub-200 ns latency. Benefit: Achieves line-rate east-west traffic performance, eliminates congestion at scale, and simplifies capacity planning for next-generation cloud workloads.

Enterprise Campus Backbone for Scalable Multi-Gigabit Connectivity

A Fortune 500 company modernizes its campus network to support 10,000+ users across multiple buildings. Deploying the N7K-C7010-B2S2-Nexus 7010 Bundle as the aggregation layer enables unified policy enforcement with Cisco TrustSec, advanced QoS, and up to 40 Gbps per port. Benefit: Delivers a predictable 5:1 oversubscription ratio, enforces secure segmentation at scale, and future-proofs the infrastructure for multi-gigabit client access with zero-touch upgrades.

Telco NFV Infrastructure for Low-Latency VNF Deployment

A Tier 1 service provider builds a private NFV cloud to host virtual routers, firewalls, and EPC functions. Integrating the N7K-C7010-B2S2-Nexus 7010 Bundle with Cisco ACI enables hardware-accelerated VXLAN bridging and real-time overlay management. Benefit: Reduces service provisioning cycles by 70%, ensures carrier-grade availability through 1:1 supervisor redundancy, and scales linearly to support hundreds of simultaneous VNFs with deterministic, microsecond-level latency.

Best For

Port Density Consolidation

When consolidation requires a configurable port mix, eight I/O slots provide positions for separately selected Ethernet cards rather than a fixed access-port configuration. Define the required copper and fiber connections, account for uplink allocation within the chosen cards, and verify card compatibility before specifying the complete chassis assembly on the PO.

Installed Chassis Sparing

When retaining a spare for an existing installation, the 21RU enclosure makes cabinet accommodation part of the purchase decision. Front-access I/O and rear-access fabric hardware require service access on both sides. Confirm cabinet clearance, supporting hardware and the required N7K-RMK= mounting kit before ordering a replacement assembly.

Not Suitable If

Factory-installed Ethernet network ports

N7K-C7010-B2S2 contains supervisory and fabric hardware, not Ethernet I/O cards. A requirement for usable network connections in the base bundle therefore requires additional hardware.

Cisco support beyond February 2027

Cisco support ends February 28, 2027. N9K-C9508 is the current eight-line-card-slot migration chassis; its supervisors, fabric hardware and line cards require a separately specified configuration.

Questions & Answers

What does the N7K-C7010-B2S2 part number mean?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 identifies a Nexus 7000 chassis bundle: N7K identifies the family, C7010 identifies the 10-slot chassis, and B2S2 identifies the combination of one N7K-SUP2 supervisor and five N7K-C7010-FAB-2 modules. Power supplies and Ethernet I/O cards are not included in that bundle.

How is N7K-C7010-B2S2 managed?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 supports the NX-OS CLI, XML interfaces, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3, plus Cisco DCNM management with web services. Match the management application's software compatibility to the intended switch release, and identify any management-software entitlement requirements separately from the physical chassis bundle.

Is N7K-C7010-B2S2 end of sale?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 is end of sale, with Cisco support ending February 28, 2027. Cisco sales ended February 28, 2022, and service-contract renewals closed May 29, 2026. Existing support remains conditional on entitlement; purchasing reseller inventory does not create a new Cisco service attachment right.

What condition and warranty options does ORM Systems offer for N7K-C7010-B2S2?

ORM Systems offers N7K-C7010-B2S2 new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Returns are 30 days for every condition; terms apply. Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty is bounded by the February 28, 2027 last support date.

Which licensing paths apply to N7K-C7010-B2S2?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 supports perpetual licensing and release-dependent subscriptions, using either traditional licensing or Smart Software Licensing. Enterprise Services N7K-LAN1K9 and Advanced Services N7K-ADV1K9 are legacy feature packages that are no longer sold. Confirm existing entitlement ownership, the intended software release and Smart Account handling before purchase.

Which older bundles did N7K-C7010-B2S2 replace?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 was a replacement for the discontinued N7K-C7010-BUN and N7K-C7010-BUN2 bundles. Buyers maintaining an installed system must reconcile the supervisor, fabric and power-supply inventories rather than treating the chassis designation as proof that the package contents or software entitlements are interchangeable.

Does N7K-C7010-B2S2 include power supplies?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 ships without power supplies, and its chassis provides three internal power-supply bays. Power redundancy depends on the supplies and input feeds actually specified. Size the complete installed configuration separately rather than treating a power supply's nameplate output rating as the chassis's measured electrical consumption.

Which routing protocols are included with the Nexus 7000 base image?

The Nexus 7000 base NX-OS image supports static routing and RIPv2 without an additional feature license. OSPF, BGP, EIGRP and IS-IS require Enterprise Services entitlement associated with N7K-LAN1K9. The physical hardware bundle does not establish entitlement to those separately licensed routing features.

How many Ethernet ports does the Nexus 7000 10-Slot Switch provide?

The Nexus 7000 10-Slot Switch provides eight I/O slots rather than a fixed set of Ethernet access ports. Port count and connection speeds depend on the installed cards. A complete quote therefore needs the required I/O inventory and optical connections, not only the chassis bundle.

What rack space does the Nexus 7000 10-Slot Switch require?

The Nexus 7000 10-Slot Switch occupies 21RU and requires an appropriately sized four-post rack or cabinet. Cabinet planning must accommodate the enclosure, cable management and access to front and rear components. Confirm the mounting hardware and cabinet clearances against the complete assembly before installation.

What is the difference between N7K-C7010-B2S2 and N7K-C7010-B2S2-R?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 includes one N7K-SUP2 supervisor, whereas N7K-C7010-B2S2-R includes two N7K-SUP2 supervisors; both bundles are discontinued. The single-supervisor bundle matches a single-controller spare requirement. The redundant bundle matches an installed dual-supervisor configuration, subject to the required software and component compatibility checks.

What is the difference between N7K-C7010-B2S2 and N7K-C7010-B2S2E?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 includes N7K-SUP2, while N7K-C7010-B2S2E includes N7K-SUP2E; both bundles are discontinued. The difference is the supplied supervisor model, not an assumed software tier. The former matches an N7K-SUP2 inventory requirement, while the latter matches an installed system requiring N7K-SUP2E hardware.

What is the difference between N7K-C7010-B2S2 and N9K-C9508?

N7K-C7010-B2S2 is a discontinued Nexus 7000 bundle, whereas N9K-C9508 is a current Nexus 9500 chassis. N9K-C9508 is the migration target for the underlying N7K-C7010 chassis, not an identical bundle replacement. The older bundle addresses installed-estate maintenance; the current chassis addresses a separately configured migration.
