Cisco Catalyst 9600 6-Slot Chassis with 2x2KW AC | Enterprise Core — CON-L1NBX-C9600XBN

Keep the core network structured around a chassis built for uptime, scale, and service continuity. The Cisco Catalyst 9600 6-Slot chassis provides six module bays for supervisor and line-card expansion, giving architects the flexibility to match port density and forwarding requirements to the site. Dual 2 kW AC power supplies support redundant power design, a critical requirement when the switch sits at the center of campus or aggregation traffic. This is the kind of platform chosen when downtime is expensive and the network must absorb growth without a forklift replacement. The modular architecture also makes it easier to align hardware investment with deployment phases, rather than overbuying fixed-port capacity up front. For enterprise teams standardizing on Catalyst infrastructure, this chassis is built for long service life and controlled expansion. It is the right fit when you need a core switching platform that can be populated with the right supervisor and line cards for the environment, while preserving the operational discipline expected in large networks. Ideal For Deploy as the campus core for a large enterprise network Use in an aggregation layer that requires modular expansion and redundancy Support a phased rollout where capacity is added through line cards over time Anchor a high-availability switching design in a data center or headquarters network Why This Product 1 Modular chassis instead of fixed-port switching 2 Dual 2 kW AC power for redundancy 3 Six slots for supervisor and line-card growth 4 Built for enterprise core and aggregation roles
