What Determines Cisco Networking Equipment Resale Value?

Cisco networking equipment resale value comes down to two things: each device's details and what the market will pay for it today. ITAMG checks the model, series, ports and condition, then uses secondary-market pricing tools and a vast buyer network to price your Cisco equipment fast and give you more options and higher pricing.

Cisco networking equipment details that set the price

  • Model and series
  • End-of-sale status
  • Ports, speeds and PoE
  • Included power supplies, fans, line cards and optics

04

What Happens to Data on Your Cisco Networking Equipment?

ITAMG destroys all the data on your Cisco switches, routers and firewalls under its NAID AAA certification, using the NIST SP 800‑88 Rev. 2 guidelines. That data includes saved settings, passwords, network keys, certificates and logs, even on equipment with no hard drive. The right method depends on your organization's data security needs, and we help you choose it, starting with the recommended methods in our NIST 800‑88 Rev. 2 guide. We can destroy the data on site at your location or at ITAMG's facility.

  • Erasure aligned with NIST SP 800‑88 Rev. 2. After verified erasure, working equipment can be resold.
  • Certificates for your records. Erasure can produce one for each device.

Questions About Selling Used Cisco Networking Equipment

Quick answers to common questions about selling used Cisco networking equipment to ITAMG. If yours is not here, add it to your quote request.

Do I need to wipe my Cisco switches and routers before I sell them?

ITAMG erases or destroys the data on every Cisco switch, router and firewall it receives, so you do not need to wipe them first. A factory reset alone may leave data behind.

Can I sell Cisco networking equipment with an expired Smart Net contract?

ITAMG buys Cisco networking equipment with or without an active Smart Net contract. An expired contract does not stop the sale.

Do Cisco licenses transfer when I sell my networking equipment?

Cisco's own rules decide whether a software license or subscription can move to a new owner. ITAMG prices the hardware, so the offer does not depend on a license transfer.

Does ITAMG buy older or non-working Cisco networking equipment?

ITAMG can buy older and non-working Cisco networking equipment, depending on its condition and completeness. Equipment with no resale value can go to recycling.

Can I sell Cisco servers and other IT equipment with my Cisco networking equipment?

ITAMG buys used Cisco servers, Cisco networking equipment and other IT equipment together. UCS, HyperFlex and Compute Hyperconverged servers are on our Cisco server buyback page.

Is there a minimum quantity of Cisco networking equipment?

ITAMG sets no minimum or maximum quantity for a Cisco networking equipment sale.

Can ITAMG remove, pack and ship heavy Cisco switches?

ITAMG can de-rack installed Cisco switches, routers and firewalls, including chassis switches and rail kits, after your team moves the network traffic. We disconnect the cabling inside the rack and pack the equipment for insured, GPS-tracked transport.

When do I get paid for my Cisco networking equipment?

ITAMG pays by wire or EFT 48 to 72 hours after processing, not at the quote or pickup. Processing typically takes up to 30 days from when your Cisco networking equipment arrives at our facility, and longer for large or multi-site projects.
