N9K-C9332D-GX2B is a managed Layer 3 Cisco Nexus switch built for dense data center fabrics where 400G uplinks and compact rack use matter more than copper endpoint access. The fixed-port design provides 32 400G QSFP-DD interfaces and 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ interfaces, so uplink capacity is built into the chassis rather than supplied through a modular bay. This non-PoE 1RU switch belongs to the Cisco Nexus 9300 GX2 Series and serves high-speed leaf, spine, and aggregation designs. The model targets buyers standardizing on optical Nexus fabrics rather than campus access switching, with all primary switching ports presented as fixed fiber interfaces. The 34 fixed switching ports suit projects that need predictable optics planning and no uplink-module selection. A close sibling, N9K-C9332D-GX2B-M, uses the same port layout but increases system memory from this model's 32 GB to 64 GB.
25.6 Tbps switching capacity supports dense 400G fabric traffic without moving this 32-port platform into a larger 2RU chassis. 4.17 bpps forwarding rate keeps packet movement aligned with high-bandwidth leaf-spine and aggregation roles. No PoE budget applies because the switch is designed for optical and high-speed Ethernet fabric links rather than powered access endpoints. BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP, RIPv2, PIM-SM, SSM, MSDP, SR, SRv6, and VXLAN EVPN support routed, multicast, and overlay designs when matched with the appropriate NX-OS or ACI software release and license. N9K-C9332D-GX2B carries 32 GB memory, 128 GB SSD storage, a 120 MB buffer, a 6-core CPU, one RJ45 management port, one 1G SFP management port, an RS-232 console port, and USB access for installation and operations. RESTCONF, NETCONF, gNMI, YANG, OpenConfig, POAP, and Nexus Dashboard integrations give operations teams model-driven configuration, telemetry, and lifecycle workflows without changing the underlying switching role. Cisco Smart Account licensing covers subscription selection and renewal tracking for supported software tiers.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B fits the data center spine, leaf, or aggregation tier, where it connects Nexus fabric peers, high-speed server-facing switches, storage fabrics, and 400G optical paths. Teams pair the QSFP-DD ports with Cisco-compatible optics, DACs, AOCs, or breakout cabling according to the fabric speed plan. It is not stackable in a campus sense; operators scale it through ACI, VXLAN EVPN, and redundant Layer 2 or routed paths while preserving one rack unit per switch. Rack planning stays clear because the chassis occupies 1U while retaining redundant power supplies and serviceable cooling modules. ORM Systems supplies this model new and certified refurbished, and refurbished units are tested for boot health, QSFP-DD port recognition, SFP+ interfaces, fan operation, power redundancy, and management access before dispatch. Submit the required airflow, power, optics, license, and warranty details to ORM Systems for pricing, with volume support available for enterprise fabric builds, spare pools, and multi-switch refresh projects.

N9K-C9332D-GX2B sits in a data center spine layer and terminates 400G QSFP-DD links from leaf switches across a compact 1RU chassis. Engineers map the 32 high-speed ports to leaf uplinks, reserve the 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports for lower-speed service paths where the design requires them, and run the fabric under Cisco NX-OS VXLAN EVPN or Cisco ACI. The last 8 QSFP-DD ports handle MACsec-enabled connections where the design assigns encrypted inter-switch links. The topology gains a 25.6 Tbps switching point that keeps east-west traffic moving through predictable fabric paths.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B operates as an ACI leaf in a spine-leaf-APIC fabric and uses the documented default profile of 24 downlinks, 8 fabric links, and 2 fixed 1/10G downlinks. Engineers connect endpoints or downstream fabric devices to the downlink side, attach ports 25-32 toward spines for discovery, then register the node through APIC. The 1RU chassis keeps that leaf role dense without consuming a 2RU spine-class footprint. The fabric gains a compact 400G leaf position with clear discovery paths and policy control under the ACI management plane.
The switch sits at a server access or aggregation layer where mixed-speed links arrive from compute, storage, or top-of-rack switches. Engineers use the 32 QSFP-DD ports as native 400G, 200G, 100G, or 40G interfaces, then apply supported 4x10G, 4x25G, 4x50G, 4x100G, or 2x200G breakouts when a rack migration needs smaller high-speed links. The 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports carry auxiliary low-speed connections outside the 400G port plan. N9K-C9332D-GX2B consolidates mixed fabric speeds into one Nexus node and reduces stranded bandwidth during staged 400G adoption.

N9K-C9332D-GX2B is a Cisco Nexus 9332D-GX2B fixed-port data center switch for high-density 400G fabrics. It provides 32 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports, 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports, 25.6 Tbps bandwidth, 4.17 bpps forwarding, and a 1RU form factor. Buyers use it for Nexus leaf, spine, and aggregation roles.
The N9K-C9332D-GX2B model number identifies a Cisco Nexus 9000 Series fixed switch in the Nexus 9300 GX2 family. The 9332D portion aligns with the 32-port 400G QSFP-DD hardware class, while GX2B separates it from related GX2A and GX2B-M models. The SKU refers to the 32 GB memory version, not the 64 GB GX2B-M variant.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B is a fixed 1RU data center Ethernet switch, not a campus PoE access switch, router, firewall, or optical module. It is built around 400G QSFP-DD fabric ports and 1/10G SFP+ ports for auxiliary downlink or service connections. Its role is high-speed switching inside Cisco Nexus data center architectures.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B sits in the Cisco Nexus 9300 GX2 fixed switch lineup as a compact 32-port 400G platform. It offers lower port density than N9K-C9348D-GX2A and N9K-C9364D-GX2A, while keeping a 1RU chassis. It matches the GX2B-M port layout but uses 32 GB system memory rather than 64 GB.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B has 32 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports and 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports. The chassis also includes one 10/100/1000BASE-T management port, one 1G SFP management port, an RS-232 console port, and a USB port. The QSFP-DD ports also support 200G QSFP56, 100G QSFP28, and 40G QSFP+ operation.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B provides 25.6 Tbps of switching bandwidth and 4.17 bpps of forwarding performance. Those figures match a 32-port 400G fixed Nexus design for dense data center fabrics. The switch also includes 120 MB buffer, 32 GB system memory, 128 GB SSD storage, and a 6-core CPU in the published GX2 specification table.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B does not provide PoE or PoE+ access ports. It is a data center fabric switch with QSFP-DD and SFP+ interfaces, so power delivery to phones, cameras, or wireless access points is outside its design role. Power planning instead focuses on redundant power supplies, optics wattage, airflow direction, and rack cooling.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B supports Layer 2 and Layer 3 data center switching through Cisco NX-OS and Cisco ACI deployment models. Cisco lists support for Ethernet switched fabrics, IP routed fabrics, VXLAN EVPN, BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP, multicast routing, and segment routing features through the relevant software releases. Feature availability should match the installed software image and licenses.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B is managed through Cisco Nexus operating environments such as NX-OS and ACI, depending on the image and fabric design. It includes dedicated RJ45 and SFP management ports, an RS-232 console port, and USB access. Automation workflows use supported Cisco interfaces such as NX-OS APIs, RESTCONF, NETCONF, gNMI, OpenConfig, POAP, and Nexus Dashboard tooling.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B is not a campus StackWise-style stacking switch. Data center designs normally scale it through leaf-spine topologies, Cisco ACI fabrics, VXLAN EVPN, and vPC where appropriate. This approach keeps each 1RU switch as an independent fabric node while providing redundant paths, policy control, and high-bandwidth east-west connectivity across the data center network.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B is used for high-density 400G switching in data center leaf, spine, aggregation, and fabric interconnect roles. Its 32 QSFP-DD ports handle high-speed server, storage, leaf-to-spine, or spine-to-leaf links, while the 1/10G SFP+ ports support lower-speed fabric, service, or management-adjacent connections depending on the design.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B suits data centers that need 400G fabric density without moving to a larger 2RU 48-port or 64-port chassis. It fits rack rows, fabric pods, and aggregation points where 32 QSFP-DD ports provide enough capacity. The 1RU form factor helps teams preserve rack space while deploying high-speed Nexus switching.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B fits workloads that place heavy east-west traffic across leaf-spine fabrics, including virtualized compute, storage fabrics, high-speed backup paths, and clustered application platforms. The 400G QSFP-DD interfaces support dense uplinks, while breakout options create smaller high-speed links for mixed 100G, 200G, and 400G migration plans.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B works in Cisco ACI and Cisco NX-OS based data center deployments when the correct software image and supported release are selected. Cisco documents it for ACI spine-leaf-APIC deployment and NX-OS data center use. In ACI, the default leaf profile uses 24 downlinks, 8 fabric links, and 2 1/10G downlinks.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B integrates with Cisco Nexus 9000 data center environments, Cisco ACI with APIC, Cisco NX-OS VXLAN EVPN fabrics, Cisco IP Fabric for Media, and Cisco Nexus Dashboard Data Broker. It also participates in routed IPv4 and IPv6 designs using protocols such as BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP, PIM-SM, SSM, and MSDP.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B uses QSFP-DD interfaces for 400G ports and SFP+ interfaces for the 1/10G ports. Cisco states that compatible interface connections include QSFP-DD, QSFP56, QSFP28, QSFP+, SFP+, SFP transceivers, and suitable interface cables. Buyers should match optics, cables, and breakout modes against Cisco Transceiver Modules Compatibility Information before ordering.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B works with Nexus data center protocols and automation standards such as VXLAN EVPN, BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, EIGRP, RIPv2, PIM-SM, SSM, MSDP, SR, SRv6, RESTCONF, NETCONF, gNMI, YANG, and OpenConfig. The exact software feature set depends on NX-OS or ACI release notes and the selected operating mode.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B uses field-replaceable fan and power supply modules with matched airflow direction. Cisco lists NXA-SFAN-35CFM-PI and NXA-SFAN-35CFM-PE fan modules, plus NXA-PAC-1500W-PI, NXA-PAC-1500W-PE, and NXA-PDC-1100W-PI power supply options. All installed fan and power modules must use the same airflow direction for safe operation. This check matters before adding high-power optics.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B and N9K-C9332D-GX2B-M share the same 1RU layout with 32 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports, 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports, 25.6 Tbps bandwidth, and 4.17 bpps forwarding. The key difference is memory: N9K-C9332D-GX2B has 32 GB system memory, while N9K-C9332D-GX2B-M has 64 GB. This makes GX2B-M the memory-focused sibling.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B is the smaller 1RU option with 32 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports, 2 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports, 25.6 Tbps bandwidth, and 4.17 bpps. N9K-C9348D-GX2A moves to a 2RU chassis with 48 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports, 38.4 Tbps bandwidth, 8.35 bpps, and MACsec across all 48 ports.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B fits 32 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports into 1RU for compact 400G fabric builds. N9K-C9364D-GX2A is a larger 2RU switch with 64 fixed 400G QSFP-DD ports, 51.2 Tbps bandwidth, 8.35 bpps, and 16 MACsec-capable 400G ports. The 9364D model suits higher port density requirements, while GX2B remains the rack-space focused option.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B and N9K-C9332D-H2R are both 1RU, 32-port 400G Nexus data center switches, but they target different design priorities. The GX2B model belongs to the Nexus 9300 GX2 fixed switch family with 4.17 bpps forwarding and eight MACsec-capable ports. N9K-C9332D-H2R adds a different buffering and timing profile for specialized 400G environments.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B pricing is quote-based because condition, configuration, optics, power supplies, warranty term, and order quantity affect the final cost. Buyers comparing the Cisco N9K-C9332D-GX2B price should specify new or refurbished preference, required airflow, power cords, optics, and delivery destination so ORM Systems can return an accurate commercial offer.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B may be sourced as new or refurbished stock depending on live market availability and procurement timing. Refurbished units are useful when buyers need cost control, spares, or matched Nexus hardware for an existing fabric. New units suit projects that require factory condition, Cisco channel availability, or a standard new-hardware procurement path.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B appears in the current Cisco Nexus 9300 GX2 Series data sheet, so it should be treated as an active GX2 family model unless a later Cisco lifecycle notice states otherwise. Buyers should confirm end-of-sale, end-of-support, and software release status at quotation time for the exact SKU and required operating mode.
Lead time for N9K-C9332D-GX2B depends on stock location, condition, airflow choice, power supply selection, optics requirements, and destination. Standard switch-only orders are usually simpler than fully populated bundles with 400G optics or country-specific power cords. ORM Systems can quote the lead time after checking available new and refurbished inventory for the requested configuration.
Bulk pricing for N9K-C9332D-GX2B is normally more competitive when multiple switches, optics, power supplies, fan modules, or spare units are ordered together. Quantity, condition mix, warranty level, and shipping destination all influence the final offer. Buyers planning leaf-spine pods should request volume pricing for the complete fabric bill of materials.
ORM Systems warranty coverage for N9K-C9332D-GX2B depends on condition, supply source, and quoted warranty term. Cisco lists a 1-year limited hardware warranty for Nexus 9300 switches, while reseller warranty options may differ for refurbished or brokered stock. Buyers should confirm the exact warranty period, replacement process, and support entitlement on the ORM Systems quotation.
Refurbished N9K-C9332D-GX2B units should be tested before dispatch for boot status, port recognition, power supply health, fan operation, management access, and visible chassis condition. For a 400G Nexus switch, testing should also verify QSFP-DD cage integrity, SFP+ interfaces, console access, airflow module match, and firmware or software state where applicable.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B follows Cisco Nexus 9300 GX2 regulatory documentation, including CE marking guidance, safety standards such as UL 60950-1 and IEC 60950-1, EMC Class A emissions standards, EMC immunity standards, and RoHS-6 compliance with stated Cisco exceptions. Buyers should match certifications to the destination country and procurement policy.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B first-use configuration starts with rack installation, matched airflow modules, redundant power, console or management access, and the selected NX-OS or ACI image. Engineers then assign management addressing, validate software release compatibility, configure fabric interfaces, and connect QSFP-DD or SFP+ links according to the data center design.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B requires the correct Cisco software image and licensing for the intended NX-OS or ACI feature set. Hardware support for VXLAN EVPN, routed fabrics, ACI, programmability, and telemetry must be paired with release notes, feature licenses, and support entitlement. Buyers should align licenses with the planned fabric role before ordering.
N9K-C9332D-GX2B deployments normally require compatible rack-mount hardware, matched fan modules, supported power supplies, country-specific power cords, Cisco-compatible QSFP-DD optics or cables, SFP+ optics where needed, and appropriate fiber or breakout cabling. The final accessory list depends on airflow direction, port speeds, optics power draw, rack depth, and upstream switch design.
UK buyers can purchase N9K-C9332D-GX2B through ORM Systems as a B2B supplier of Cisco enterprise networking hardware.
