Cheapest copper ACI Leaf now that N2K FEX's are going away

Hello all,

I have some Nexus 2K copper FEX's that are already or soon-to-be End-of-Life, and since Cisco is not manufacturing more N2K's, I'm looking at what options I have to replace them while keeping my costs down. The only requirement that I have is that they have copper ports (with uplinks to the spines of course).

In looking, it seems like the Nexus 9000 series are my only options? And in looking at that series, it looks like my "best" option is the N9K-C9348GC-FX3 leaf, as it seems to be the cheapest copper Leaf, and it is the newer version of the older N9K-C9348GC-FXP.

Am I correct that the N9K-C9348GC-FX3 is my best option for a cheap copper Leaf? Want to be sure there's not something I'm missing. : )

That is your best option if you need an ACI-compatible Leaf.
