No, this chassis will last a while. At the very worst I upgrade to a bigger chassis and reuse the blades. The Supervisor V Engines are $10,000 a piece, and the bulk of the remainder is in the gigabit blades.
This is replacing a Cisco 4006 and a couple of 3550's that I've had since 2002.

I dont really know anything about these what-so-ever, so I may be missing something huge. :dunno:
$10,000 for the chassis.
$10,000 each for the two supervisor engines, plus six 10/100/1000 RJ 45 48 port blades & a power over ethernet fiber blade.
$50K for this was cheap. Retail is over $90K.
