The Cisco N3K-C3164Q-40GE is a 2RU Nexus 3164Q with 64x 40 Gigabit QSFP+ ports for dense 40GB aggregation. It suits top-of-rack and aggregation roles in data center and campus networks. This unit is the back-to-front (port-side exhaust) airflow version: cooling air enters at the fan and power supply side and leaves at the port side.
Capacity is 5.12 Tbps with a 3.8 Bpps forwarding rate, a 48 MB shared packet buffer, and a 96,000-entry MAC address table. The switch carries 16 GB DRAM and 64 GB SSD.
Fans and power supplies are hot-swappable and redundant, and every module in one chassis must share the same airflow direction. Fan choices are the N9K-C9300-FAN3 (port-side intake) - port-side intake is the only Cisco-documented direction for this model. Power supply choices are the N9K-PAC-1200W AC (port-side intake). Check the fitted fan and power supply part numbers against your row's airflow before racking the switch.
The Nexus 3264Q carries the same 64x 40GB port count with two extra SFP+ ports.
Cisco documents only port-side intake cooling parts for this model; this unit is recorded as the port-side exhaust configuration, so confirm the fitted fan and power supply part numbers against your row before deployment.
This seller refurbished switch is tested, working, and covered by the NetworkTigers one-year warranty.
