Cisco Catalyst 6500 Enhanced 9-Slot Chassis Service | 3-Year NBD — CON-L1NBD-C10X0L24

Keep your Catalyst 6500 environment covered with Cisco Smart Net Total Care support designed for production networks that cannot afford long repair cycles. This 3-year service provides 8 x 5 coverage with next-business-day replacement support, helping infrastructure teams restore failed hardware quickly and keep operations moving. For enterprise switching platforms, the cost of downtime often exceeds the cost of the support contract. That is why this service is commonly selected for installed base protection: it reduces uncertainty, simplifies escalation, and gives operations teams a defined response model when a chassis issue occurs. Phone support adds a direct path to Cisco assistance, while replacement coverage helps limit the burden on internal spares and field logistics. This service is a strong fit for organizations that depend on stable network access across users, applications, and connected sites. It supports disciplined lifecycle management for a platform that still anchors many enterprise environments, where predictable recovery matters more than reactive troubleshooting.
