Keep your Nexus 5696Q chassis supported with a service plan built for predictable operations and controlled response windows. Cisco CX Level 1 8x5xNBD provides business-hours coverage with next-business-day handling, giving infrastructure teams a practical support tier for environments where planned maintenance and standard escalation paths are the priority. For procurement teams, this service helps balance protection and cost. It is designed for organizations that need vendor-backed support for a critical chassis platform without moving to a 24x7 contract. That makes it a strong fit for sites with established maintenance windows, internal network operations coverage, and clear incident procedures. The value is in keeping the platform supported by Cisco while preserving budget for higher-impact infrastructure investments. When the chassis is central to network availability, the right support tier matters as much as the hardware itself. This service helps maintain continuity, reduce recovery friction, and keep the support model aligned to how the network is actually run.
