C1-N3K-C3172TQ appears in Cisco's official Nexus 3172TQ PID list. It is a Cisco ONE ordering identity tied to the standard Nexus 3172TQ platform, not the 32-port licensed variant or the XL hardware revision. Buyers should verify the included software entitlement and physical bill of materials instead of assuming that the C1 prefix changes the switch port hardware.
The standard 3172TQ uses 48 fixed RJ-45 ports supporting 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps plus six QSFP+ ports supporting native 40 Gbps or 4 x 10 Gbps breakout. Cisco documents a 1RU chassis, dual redundant power supplies, redundant hot-swappable fans, a management Ethernet port, serial console and USB port.
Cisco marks the Nexus 3172TQ product family end of sale and lists February 28, 2027 as the end-of-support date on its model page. Cisco's lifecycle notice identifies the Nexus 93108TC-FX3P as the replacement for the standard 48-port 3172TQ PID. Migration requires a fresh review of optics, cabling, NX-OS features, licenses, power and airflow.
