Cisco Catalyst 9600 6-Slot Chassis, 1x Sup2 | Enterprise Core — CON-L1NCX-C9600XBN

Keep critical campus traffic on a platform designed for scale, serviceability, and operational control. The Cisco Catalyst 9600 6-slot chassis gives infrastructure teams a modular foundation for core and distribution deployments where uptime and policy consistency matter. With a Sup2 supervisor and dual 2 kW AC power supplies, the system is built to support resilient operation and cleaner power redundancy planning. This chassis is a fit for organizations standardizing on Cisco campus architecture and looking to extend the life of their switching layer without compromising manageability. The 6-slot design provides room for modular expansion, while the DNA Advantage license aligns the platform with policy-driven operations and automation workflows already common in large enterprise networks. For teams replacing fixed-configuration switches, the 9600 series offers a more durable path forward: fewer forklift upgrades, better alignment to growth, and a chassis model that can be serviced and expanded with less disruption. It is a strong choice when the network core must carry more than traffic — it must carry the business.
