Copper Server Connections With Fixed QSFP28 Aggregation

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 is a fixed data center switch with 24 licensed 100M/1/10GBASE-T downlinks and six built-in 40/100G QSFP28 uplinks. The copper connections serve servers without supplying endpoint power, while the fixed uplinks connect toward aggregation without an additional uplink card. Base software provides Layer 2 switching; additional licenses enable Layer 3 functions. The Nexus 9300-EX belongs to the Cisco Nexus 9000 family and supports either NX-OS operation or ACI deployment. The discontinued N9K-C93180YC-EX-24 differs by using fiber rather than copper downlinks. This is a rack-oriented configuration for buyers retaining copper server connections while using higher-speed aggregation links.

Technical Details

499W maximum input draw provides the upper figure for electrical provisioning, distinct from a power supply's output rating. N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 has 24 GB of system memory and a 64 GB SSD for its operating environment. A 40 MB system buffer supports packet buffering, and the EX hardware supports a maximum of 256000 MAC address entries. Four fans provide active cooling, and the chassis accepts two power supply positions. Default software does not include Layer 3 IP unicast or multicast routing; those functions require additional licensing. Hardware scale and an installed software entitlement therefore need separate consideration when specifying routed operation.

Ordering

Order N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 new sealed or certified refurbished, specifying condition, quantity, installed power configuration, and software requirements on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed port links, clean boot, optics bay recognition, PSU status, and fan status; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, and 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty is bounded by August 31, 2027. For enterprise and volume orders, PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement are available.

Best For

Downlink License Expansion

When a server rack needs additional connections after its initial installation, N9K-EX-24P-UPG= enables all 48 downlinks in the existing chassis. The expansion is a license purchase rather than an uplink module installation. Include the upgrade entitlement explicitly and confirm its delivery against the chassis before issuing the PO.

Software Image Staging

When replacement hardware must join an established NX-OS environment, the minimum supported release is 9.3(2). An older image used elsewhere in the estate is not an appropriate staging baseline for this model. Specify the intended operating mode and confirm the deployment image before approving the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

2.5G or 5G copper connections

Copper downlinks support 100M, 1G, and 10G, not 2.5G or 5G. The current N9K-C93108TC-FX3P replacement adds those speeds and has 48 enabled copper ports.

Layer 3 routing without additional licensing

Base software provides Layer 2 switching. Layer 3 IP unicast and multicast routing require additional licenses; the hardware part number alone does not include those functions.

Questions & Answers

What does the N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 part number mean?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 identifies a Nexus 9000 fixed copper switch: C93108TC identifies the 100M/1/10GBASE-T model, EX identifies the generation, and -24 identifies the licensed downlink count. The configuration also includes six 40/100G QSFP28 uplinks. The hardware identifier does not itself specify an additional routing software entitlement.

How is N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 managed?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 supports NX-OS CLI management, programmable APIs, RESTCONF/NETCONF, and Data Center Network Manager, or policy-based management in ACI mode. These represent different operating and administration paths rather than one combined interface. Specify the intended operating mode before staging software, management integration, and the associated license entitlement.

Can N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 use all 48 copper ports?

Yes, N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 can use all 48 physical copper downlinks after installing N9K-EX-24P-UPG=. The original configuration licenses any 24 downlinks while retaining access to all six uplinks. Expansion therefore requires the appropriate port entitlement, not a replacement port card or an additional copper interface module.

What uplinks does N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 provide?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 provides six fixed QSFP28 uplinks supporting 40G and 100G operation. These ports are built into the chassis rather than supplied by a removable uplink card. Specify the intended uplink speed and verify transceiver compatibility against the deployment software before finalizing the connection configuration.

Which licensing paths are available for the Nexus 9300-EX?

Nexus 9300-EX offers perpetual NX-OS Essentials and Advantage, perpetual ACI Essentials and Advantage, and combined ACI/NX-OS subscription Essentials, Advantage, and Premier packages. Subscription terms start at 3 years, with 5-year and 7-year options. Port activation is a separate consideration from selecting software features and the operating mode.

Is N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 discontinued?

Yes, N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 ended sale on August 9, 2022, with final Cisco support scheduled for August 31, 2027. The replacement is N9K-C93108TC-FX3P. Support remains subject to entitlement, and the final support date limits Cisco service regardless of a contract or warranty's otherwise stated duration.

Which power supplies can N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 accept?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 accepts NXA-PAC-500W-PI or NXA-PAC-500W-PE for AC power, NXA-PDC-930W-PI or NXA-PDC-930W-PE for DC power, and N9K-PUV-1200W for HVAC/HVDC. The chassis supports two supply positions. Confirm the installed quantity, input type, and airflow configuration on the order rather than treating every compatible supply as included hardware.

What minimum NX-OS release does N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 require?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 requires NX-OS 9.3(2) or later. An earlier image used on another Nexus switch is not a supported baseline for this model. Include the intended software release in staging requirements, and distinguish the operating image from the separate licenses needed to enable additional functions.

What is the difference between N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 and N9K-C93108TC-EX?

N9K-C93108TC-EX enables 48 copper downlinks, while N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 initially licenses 24. Both models are discontinued. For installed-base matching, the full-port model suits racks requiring the larger enabled connection count; the -24 model suits lower initial density, with a separate upgrade entitlement available for subsequent expansion.

What is the difference between N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 and N9K-C93180YC-EX-24?

N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 uses copper downlinks, while N9K-C93180YC-EX-24 uses fiber downlinks. Both models are discontinued and initially license 24 downlinks. For existing installations, the copper model matches BASE-T server connections, whereas the fiber model matches servers and cabling that require pluggable optical connections rather than copper interfaces.

What is the difference between N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 and N9K-C93108TC-FX3P?

N9K-C93108TC-FX3P adds 2.5G and 5G copper operation, while N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 supports 100M, 1G, and 10G copper speeds. N9K-C93108TC-FX3P is the current replacement. The newer model suits intermediate-speed copper endpoints; the discontinued EX model remains an installed-base option where those intermediate speeds are not required.

What condition and warranty options does ORM Systems offer for N9K-C93108TC-EX-24?

ORM Systems offers N9K-C93108TC-EX-24 new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Cisco's separate 1-year limited hardware warranty cannot extend beyond August 31, 2027. Both conditions have 30-day returns, terms apply; refurbished units are inspected, bench-tested, firmware verified, and wiped to factory default.
