Frequently asked questions
How much does the Cisco Catalyst 8500 Ethernet Switch - Manageable - 10 Gigabit Ethernet - 10GBase-X - 3 Layer Supported - Modular - Optical Fiber - 1U - Rack-mountable - 1 Year Limited Warranty (C8500-12X-1066033064) cost?
Pricing for the C8500-12X-1066033064 is available on request. Send a quick quote request and a Uniqcli specialist will confirm the current price, stock, and lead time, usually within one business day. Lower pricing is available for volume, GPC, and emergency-acquisition orders.
Is the C8500-12X-1066033064 TAA compliant and available for government and DoD buyers?
Often yes, but it depends on the unit. Cisco manufactures the C8500-12X-1066033064 in several countries, so Trade Agreements Act (TAA) status varies by production lot. Uniqcli is an authorized Cisco partner: we confirm the country of origin before shipment, and if a given C8500-12X-1066033064 is not TAA-designated, we will source a TAA-certified equivalent of the same model. Either way the result is DoDIN APL-ready procurement for US federal, DoD, state, local, education, healthcare, and enterprise buyers, with Government Purchase Card (GPC) acceptance and FAR-based urgent and emergency acquisition support. Request a TAA-compliant quote for the C8500-12X-1066033064 and a specialist will confirm compliance, price, and lead time, usually within one business day.
Can I buy the C8500-12X-1066033064 as a single unit or in volume?
Both. Order a single C8500-12X-1066033064 through the cart, or ask about lower pricing for volume orders, Government Purchase Card (GPC) purchases, and emergency or urgent (FAR-based) acquisitions. There is no payment up front: we confirm availability and the final total before invoicing.
Where can I find the C8500-12X-1066033064 datasheet and specifications?
The C8500-12X-1066033064 datasheet is on this page: open the gated document for the full PDF. The specifications section also lists ports, power, and dimensions where Cisco publishes them.
Need the C8500-12X-1066033064 TAA-compliant for federal or DoD?
Cisco builds this model in multiple countries, so TAA status depends on the production lot. We confirm country of origin before shipment, and if a unit isn't TAA-designated, we'll quote a TAA-certified equivalent of the same model, DoDIN APL-ready and GPC-payable.
