Cisco Nexus 3172PQ 8x5xNBD Support | 48 SFP+ 6 QSFP+ Enterprise — CON-SSSNT-3172PQXL

Keep high-density Nexus switching under support with Cisco 8x5xNBD coverage for the 3172PQ platform. This service is built for environments where predictable response matters, but around-the-clock coverage is not required. It gives infrastructure teams a clear support path for a switch that anchors aggregation, leaf-spine, or high-throughput connectivity roles. The 3172PQ’s 48 SFP+ and 6 QSFP+ port mix makes it a serious fit for dense data center designs. Support coverage matters because the cost of a stalled switch is not just hardware replacement — it is application impact, change delays, and recovery coordination across multiple teams. 8x5xNBD support helps keep that process controlled with next-business-day response aligned to standard operating windows. Choose this service when you need Cisco-backed coverage for a production switching asset and want a service level that balances protection, response timing, and procurement discipline. It is a practical option for organizations standardizing on Nexus infrastructure and looking to preserve uptime without paying for unnecessary service hours.
