Frequently Asked Questions
What can you do with old Cisco network switches?

When it comes to your unused Cisco network switches, you have three primary options:

  1. Dispose or Recycle Them – A good choice if the switches are no longer functional.
  2. Repurpose Them – Useful for deploying them in another system or network.
  3. Sell Them for Cash – A great way to offset costs or fund an upgrade.

Which Option Is Best for You?

The right choice depends on these key factors:

  • Condition: If the switches no longer work effectively, recycling or disposal might be your only choice. If they’re functional but not in perfect shape, selling or repurposing could still be viable.
  • Resale Value: If the resale value is high, selling is a practical option. If it’s low despite decent functionality, repurposing might make more sense.
  • Replacement Costs: If you’re upgrading, selling too soon when new equipment is expensive could be an issue. Waiting for prices to drop on replacement units might be a smarter move before parting with your old switches.

 

How can I sell my Cisco network switches?

Whether you have Cisco switches, routers, or other networking equipment, there are several practical ways to turn your used assets into cash. While the right approach depends on factors like equipment type and location, here are the three main options for selling used Cisco switches:

  1. Peer-to-Peer Marketplaces (e.g., eBay):
    • Offers the most control over pricing and promotion.
    • Finding the right buyer at your terms can be challenging.
    • Selling enterprise-grade switches on these platforms may require extra effort to locate a suitable audience.
  2. Classified Sites (e.g., Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Amazon):
    • Typically easier to connect with buyers than on peer-to-peer platforms.
    • Comes with less flexibility in setting prices and terms.
    • A practical option for general-purpose or consumer-grade equipment.
  3. Specialist IT Asset Disposition (ITAD) Companies:
    • The easiest and fastest method to sell your used Cisco switches at a fair market value.
    • Ideal for enterprise-grade equipment and cases where data security is a concern.
    • ITAD companies handle secure data erasure or destruction, ensuring compliance with data protection standards.

Choose the method that best aligns with your goals, whether it’s maximizing control, ease of sale, or ensuring data security.

 

How to sell a Cisco network switch?

Selling a Cisco network switch or other network equipment like gateways, hubs, and routers can be done in just a few straightforward steps:

Step 1: Evaluate the Condition

  • Assess the physical condition and performance of the switch.
  • Identify any defects or imperfections. Be honest in your evaluation, as transparency will help build trust with buyers.

Step 2: Identify the Equipment

  • Determine the exact model and specifications of the Cisco switch to establish its value.
  • Look for visible brand/model names or serial numbers for easy identification.

Step 3: Take Quality Photos

  • Capture clear photos of the switch, ensuring the serial number and model name are visible (if applicable).
  • Include photos of any defects to provide an accurate representation of the equipment.

Step 4: Find Potential Buyers

  • List your switch on platforms like classified sites, peer-to-peer marketplaces, or contact ITAD specialist companies (e.g., Big Data Supply Inc.) for bulk sales or secure transactions.

Step 5: Package and Ship

  • Package the switch securely to prevent damage during transit.
  • Some ITAD companies may offer pickup services, especially for bulk equipment sales.

How to Determine the Value of Old Cisco Switches

The resale value of Cisco switches depends on several key factors:

  1. Age: Older switches typically have lower market values unless they’re rare or in demand.
  2. Condition: Fully functional switches without defects fetch higher prices.
  3. Availability of Newer Models: Prices drop when a direct replacement or newer version of the equipment is released.
  4. Rarity: Some older models might increase in value if they’re no longer widely available or have unique use cases.

Pro Tip:

Check the current marketplace value by searching for similar models on platforms like Amazon or eBay to get an idea of the average price.
