The UK's Trusted Buyer of Used Cisco Hardware

CISCO ROUTERS

Cisco equipment holds its value better than almost any other enterprise networking brand — and at RCN Trading we've been buying it from UK businesses for over 18 years. Whether you're decommissioning a data centre, replacing end-of-life switches, upgrading your routing infrastructure, or clearing surplus Cisco hardware from a completed project, we provide competitive market-based pricing, free nationwide collection, and same-day payment by bank transfer.
We monitor live Cisco resale markets daily to make sure our offers reflect genuine current demand. You won't get a fixed price list from six months ago — you'll get today's market rate for your specific models and quantities. And what we quote is what we pay. No revisions after collection, no hidden deductions, no surprises.

How to Sell Your Cisco Equipment

1. Send Your Equipment List

Put together a list of the Cisco hardware you want to sell including the model number, quantity, and condition. Include your business postcode so we can factor in collection logistics

2. Receive a Competitive Quote

Our team checks current Cisco resale market prices and comes back to you with a transparent, itemised offer. What we quote is what we pay — no changes after collection.

3. Free Collection or Shipping

Once you accept we arrange everything. Collection is free anywhere in the UK. If you prefer to ship the equipment to us we cover all shipping costs.. 

4. Get Paid the Same Day

Payment is made by bank transfer on the day we collect or the day your shipment arrives and is checked in. No waiting, no chasing.

Types of Cisco Hardware We Purchase

We regularly buy Cisco switching hardware from access layer through to data centre core, enterprise and branch office routing equipment, network security and firewall appliances, wireless infrastructure and access points, unified communications hardware, and data centre compute including UCS blade and rack systems.
If you have Cisco hardware that doesn't fit neatly into one of these categories — older legacy equipment, specialist modules, or mixed lots — get in touch anyway. We assess everything on its merits and will always give you a straight answer on whether it has value in today's market.

WHY SELL CISCO EQUIPMENT

Cisco equipment depreciates over time — but it does so more slowly than most enterprise IT brands, and there is consistent global demand for used Cisco hardware from resellers, system integrators, and businesses that can't justify new list prices. The window in which your Cisco gear commands a good resale price is finite though. Equipment that is worth a significant sum today may be worth considerably less in twelve months if newer models supersede it or if end-of-life status affects demand.
Selling your surplus Cisco hardware through RCN Trading means you recover that value at the right time, offset the cost of new infrastructure, and clear your warehouse or data centre of equipment that is taking up space and carrying insurance and maintenance costs without delivering any value.

Data Security When Selling Cisco Equipment

Cisco networking hardware — particularly routers, firewalls, and managed switches — retains configuration data in device memory including network topology information, routing tables, VPN credentials, access control lists, and authentication credentials. Before any Cisco equipment we purchase is resold, all devices are fully wiped and reset to factory defaults, permanently removing all configuration data.
Certified data wiping documentation is available on request. If you also need certified hard drive destruction for servers or storage being disposed of at the same time, we can handle that as part of the same collection.

Why Businesses Choose RCN Trading

We Pay What We Quote

No last-minute revaluations after collection. The price we agree is the price you receive, every time.

Same-Day Response

We respond to quote requests the same day and aim to have an offer with you within a few hours of receiving your equipment list.

Fully Managed Service

From first contact to final payment we handle everything — collection, logistics, data wiping, and asset de-tagging. You don't need to lift a finger.
