N9K-C93120TX - Cisco Nexus 9000 Series

N9K-C93120TX Hardware Identity

N9K-C93120TX is the order identifier for the Cisco Nexus 93120TX, a fixed 2-RU copper data-center switch in the Nexus 9300 platform. Cisco documents 96 fixed 1/10GBASE-T downlinks and 6 fixed 40G QSFP+ uplinks. Optics, cables, licenses and modular components are included only when itemized in the quote.

High-density copper exit plan

Map all ninety-six copper server links by negotiated speed, cable category, rack location and migration owner, then group the six 40G uplinks by redundancy domain. The 2-RU density can concentrate heat and copper cabling, so rack airflow and serviceability must be reviewed with the port plan. Because Cisco support has ended, preserve a staged conversion to a current leaf design, including any copper-to-optical change, address/port policy translation and rollback. Used stock is not a substitute for security and software support.

Acceptance test

Test representative copper cable lengths, uplink port channels and airflow alarms, then complete a pilot server migration and retain the unsupported-platform exception.

Software and lifecycle control

Cisco identifies this model as end of support; require a migration exception, supported replacement and software-risk decision.

Quote checks

• Match the chassis PID, serial, airflow and power option to the received unit.
• List every transceiver, cable, breakout, license and support entitlement separately.
• Record the approved NX-OS or ACI mode, image checksum and rollback path.
• Preserve the port map, peer ownership and failure-test evidence with the asset.
