Telecom Timing and Ethernet Access for Data Centers

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S combines fixed fiber access and telecom timing capabilities in a managed data center switch. Its 48 SFP28 downlinks support 1G, 10G or 25G Ethernet, while six built-in QSFP28 uplinks support 40G or 100G connections without an additional uplink card. The base software provides Layer 2 switching, security and management functions. This non-PoE chassis connects network interfaces rather than supplying endpoint power. Within the N9300-FX3S series, the fixed-port configuration accommodates different server-interface speeds without changing the chassis. The 1U rack installation keeps the access interfaces, timing connections and management connections together, while the uplink selection determines the interfaces required at the distribution or spine end.

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S price for new stock is $31,709.01. N9K-C93180YC-FX3S refurb price is $16,773.75. N9K-C93180YC-FX3S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

3600 Gbps switching capacity provides the aggregate bandwidth ceiling for the fixed-port configuration. 1200 Mpps forwarding capacity supplies a separate packet-processing figure for evaluating traffic mixes. A 40 MB packet buffer supports queueing, while Cisco Cloud Scale forwarding technology underpins the hardware architecture. N9K-C93180YC-FX3S supports up to 32 GB of system memory and includes 128 GB of SSD storage; memory and storage serve different operational requirements. The MAC table has a raw maximum capacity of 512000 entries, rather than a guaranteed capacity for every software configuration. 600W maximum input consumption sets the circuit-planning figure independently of the installed supply's output rating. NX-OS management includes CLI access, programmable interfaces and centralized administration through Cisco Data Center Network Manager. Cisco ACI operating mode is not supported.

Ordering

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S is offered new sealed or certified refurbished; specify the condition and included hardware on the purchase order. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, every port linking at rated speed, and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM's new-unit warranty is up to three years extended, certified refurbished coverage is up to one year, and both conditions carry 30-day returns; terms apply. Enterprise and volume orders accept POs, government purchases qualify for Net-30, and RMA with advance replacement is available across UK, EU, US and MEA regional operations.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Software entitlements need selection

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S requires separate licensing for routed functions. Select NX-OS Essentials or NX-OS Advantage perpetual licensing, or Essentials or Advantage subscription licensing with a three-year minimum, independently of the chassis order.

High-power optics constrain neighboring ports

High-power transceiver layouts need reserved neighboring ports: N9K-C93180YC-FX3S restricts ports adjacent to configured SFP-10G-T-X or SFP-10G-OLT20-X interfaces to low-power passive copper cables or empty cages. Allocate the port map before ordering optics.

Best For

Telecom Timing Refresh

When a data center refresh must retain a telecom frequency and phase reference, G.8275.1 support separates the timing requirement from ordinary Ethernet port sizing. Confirm the PTP boundary-clock role and external reference connections before procurement, then specify the required timing entitlement and reference connections on the purchase order.

Cabinet Rollout Standardization

When several sites must accept the same chassis, four-post mounting needs checking before hardware allocation. The rack arrangement calls for 610 to 813 mm between front and rear rails. Measure each cabinet, confirm power-receptacle access, and include NXK-ACC-KIT-1RU in the agreed shipment contents before releasing the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

An ACI-managed switching fabric

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S operates with NX-OS and cannot run Cisco ACI mode. An ACI deployment requires a different chassis with explicit support for that operating mode.

Native RJ-45 access port connections

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S uses transceiver-based access interfaces rather than built-in RJ-45 downlinks. A requirement for native copper access connections calls for hardware with integrated RJ-45 access ports.

Questions & Answers

What does the N9K-C93180YC-FX3S part number identify?

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S identifies a Cisco N9300-FX3S fixed fiber switch with 48 1/10/25G ports and six 40/100G uplinks. FX3S specifies the series generation; the complete chassis PID identifies this hardware rather than a separately selected software entitlement. Match the entire part number when ordering replacement or additional hardware.

How is N9K-C93180YC-FX3S managed?

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S is managed through NX-OS CLI, its RS-232 console, JSON-based RPC over HTTP or HTTPS, and RESTCONF or NETCONF interfaces. Cisco Data Center Network Manager provides centralized management. Choose the local or automated workflow before staging, and include management-network access in the installation plan.

Is N9K-C93180YC-FX3S end of sale?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for N9300-FX3S. N9K-C93180YC-FX3S therefore has no announced end-of-sale milestone to schedule against. Keep the exact generation in asset records: similarly named Nexus 9000 switches can have different lifecycle dates, so an older model's retirement date does not identify this chassis's status.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for N9K-C93180YC-FX3S?

New sealed and certified refurbished N9K-C93180YC-FX3S units are offered by ORM Systems. Cisco's platform warranty is one year limited hardware coverage; ORM's new-unit warranty is up to three years extended and certified refurbished coverage is up to one year. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested.

Which licensing paths are available for N9K-C93180YC-FX3S?

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S supports perpetual NX-OS Essentials and NX-OS Advantage licensing, plus Essentials and Advantage subscription packages with a three-year minimum. Layer 3 functions require additional licensing beyond the base feature set. Specify the entitlement separately from the chassis, including DCN-SYNCE-XF when SyncE is required.

What uplinks does N9K-C93180YC-FX3S provide?

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S provides six fixed QSFP28 uplinks supporting 40G or 100G Ethernet. The uplinks are built into the chassis rather than added through an uplink card. Specify compatible transceivers or cables for the selected speed and connection, and match the far-end interface before ordering the link components.

Does N9K-C93180YC-FX3S have redundant power supplies?

N9K-C93180YC-FX3S uses two matched power supplies for 1+1 redundancy, with each supply connected to a separate power source. AC configurations can use NXA-PAC-650W-PI or NXA-PAC-650W-PE. Select the same power-source type for both supplies and match their airflow to the installed cooling arrangement before specifying replacement hardware.

Can N9300-FX3S run Cisco ACI?

No, N9300-FX3S does not support Cisco ACI mode; N9K-C93180YC-FX3S operates with NX-OS. An ACI fabric requirement rules out this chassis even when a software package name mentions ACI. Confirm the intended operating mode before selecting licenses or allocating the switch to an existing fabric.

What telecom timing functions does N9300-FX3S support?

N9300-FX3S supports SyncE, PTP boundary-clock operation and the G.8275.1 telecom profile. N9K-C93180YC-FX3S also provides 1PPS and 10 MHz timing connections plus a GNSS antenna connector. Include DCN-SYNCE-XF for SyncE, and specify the external reference connections required by the deployment before releasing the purchase order.

Which rack-mount kits fit N9300-FX3S?

N9300-FX3S supports NXK-ACC-KIT-1RU and N3K-C3064-ACC-KIT for its 1U chassis. Select the mounting arrangement before ordering and verify the cabinet's four-post geometry. N9K-AIRFLOW-SLV is compatible only with N3K-C3064-ACC-KIT, so the sleeve and mounting kit must be specified as a matched combination rather than selected independently.
