We have decades of experience in securing the most competitive pricing for our customers. If you’re planning a new deployment, refresh, or multi-site upgrade, submit an enquiry with your requirements today. 

Our new retail pricing reflects the standard commercial rates set by the manufacturer for brand-new, factory-sealed products. These are typically purchased directly from distribution and come with the manufacturer’s warranty.

Our new retail pricing reflects standard commercial rates for brand-new, factory-sealed products typically supplied through distribution and backed by full warranty.

Our team closely monitors vendor pricing to ensure customers receive competitive rates across all new product ranges. While generally consistent, this can shift with supply conditions or manufacturer updates. All pricing displayed on our site reflects the latest vendor guidance and current market availability.

If you’re planning a deployment, upgrade, or expansion, submit an enquiry. We’ll review your requirements, confirm current pricing, and highlight the most cost-effective options available.

Manufacturer refurbished products offer a cost-effective alternative to buying new, while still providing high levels of quality, performance, and reliability.

Each unit is restored and tested by the vendor to strict compliance standards, often including updated firmware, full diagnostics, and a manufacturer warranty.

With substantial savings compared to new retail, refurbished equipment is an ideal option for organisations looking to optimise budgets without compromising performance.

While short lead times are common, some items may take longer to source depending on vendor stock availability and product lifecycles.

To explore manufacturer refurbished options, submit an enquiry with your requirements. We’ll confirm availability, assess suitability for your environment, and provide the best possible commercial terms.

SCC refurbished pricing applies to pre-owned hardware that has been professionally restored, tested, and certified to meet high performance and reliability standards.

These products offer a significantly more cost-effective alternative to new retail units, while still delivering the functionality and quality required for business environments. Every device is rigorously tested and quality-assured by our in-house experts, with a minimum 1-year warranty.

Pricing for refurbished equipment is influenced by factors such as product condition, age, availability, and component updates. As stock levels can change quickly, any prices shown on our site represent the latest guidance based on current market conditions.

If you’re planning an upgrade, refresh, or expansion and want to explore SCC refurbished options, simply submit an enquiry today with your requirements.

Vendor promotions are limited-time incentives provided by the manufacturer or distribution channel. These can include discounted pricing, bundled offers, software credits, extended warranties, or rebates that reduce the overall cost of your project.

Our team monitors vendor programmes daily to ensure you benefit from current promotional opportunities across all major brands. See our latest vendor offers here. 

Alternatively, submit an enquiry with your project or upgrade requirements. We’ll check for relevant active promotions and advise you on the most cost-effective combination of discounts, bundles, or incentives available.

Our price match commitment ensures you receive competitive pricing on IT hardware and software.

If you find the same product at a lower price from a reputable UK supplier, share the link or formal quote with us. We’ll review it to match or beat the offer.

We will verify the details, checking stock and warranty conditions to assess whether improved commercial terms are available through our vendor partnerships or alternative sourcing.

We’re committed to fair, transparent pricing and will always explore the best options for your project – whether that’s matching a competitor or offering a more cost-effective alternative. Get in touch to secure the best possible price for your requirements.

The Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI) solution in the data center is a holistic architecture with centralized automation and policy-based application profiles. The Cisco ACI solution provides a robust transport network for today’s dynamic workloads. Cisco ACI is built on a network fabric that combines time-tested protocols with new innovations to create a highly flexible, scalable, and resilient architecture of low-latency, high-bandwidth links. This fabric delivers a network that can support the most demanding and flexible data center environments.

The Cisco ACI fabric consists of three major components:
– Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC)
– Spine switches
– Leaf switches

Building on the success of first-generation Cisco Nexus 9300 platform switches, the latest Cisco Nexus 9300-EX and 9300-FX platforms can collect comprehensive Cisco Tetration Analytics™ telemetry information at line rate across all ports without adding any latency to the packets or negatively affecting switch performance. This telemetry information is exported every 100 milliseconds (ms) by default directly from the switch’s Application‑Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). This information consists of three types of data:
– Flow information: This information contains information about endpoints, protocols, ports, when the flow started, how long the flow was active, etc.
– Interpacket variation: This information captures any interpacket variations within the flow. Examples include variation in Time To Live (TTL), IP and TCP flags, payload length, etc.
– Context details: Context information is derived outside the packet header, including variation in buffer utilization, packet drops within a flow, association with tunnel endpoints, etc.

The Cisco Tetration Analytics platform consumes this telemetry data, and by using unsupervised machine learning and behavior analysis it can provide outstanding pervasive visibility across everything in your data center in real time. By using algorithmic approaches, the Cisco Tetration Analytics platform provides deep insights into applications and interactions, enabling dramatically simplified operations, a zero-trust model, and migration of applications to any programmable infrastructure.

These Layer 2 and 3 nonblocking switches support 1, 10, 25, 40, 50 and 100 ; Fibre Channel over (FCoE)[1]; and 8-, 16-, and 32-Gbps Fibre Channel1 (native Fibre Channel support is available on 9300-FX Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) models only), with up to 3.6 Terabits per second (Tbps) of internal bandwidth. In addition, the 9300-FX switches support the IEEE 802.1ae MAC Security (MACsec) standard on all downlink and uplink ports, allowing traffic encryption at the physical layer and providing secure server, border leaf, and leaf-to-spine connectivity.
