End-of-life status
The DCS-7160-48TC6 is end-of-sale

Why refurbished still makes sense: a refurbished DCS-7160-48TC6 delivers the same proven performance at a fraction of the new-equipment cost, backed by a TFI warranty and SLA. It is the practical choice for spares, expansion of an existing deployment, or extending the life of a network you are not ready to replace.
