Cisco stopped selling it on 1 Aug 2013, so we do not sell it as new. The quote states the condition of the units we can get — refurbished or OEM stock — and every unit is inspected before it ships and carries a 12-month hardwaresys warranty.

The Cisco notice suggests moving to WS-C4948E-E, WS-C4948E-F-E. That part has since been discontinued too. We can quote WS-C4948-E itself or the suggested part — say which in the request.

Yes. Put the quantity in the request and the quote covers the whole batch, each unit inspected before it ships. Orders start at $1,000.
