Many cable companies feel that new cable products are their only option. The truth is that used cable equipment can offer equally good results and value for a significantly lower investment.
Fortunately, at Worldwide Supply, we carry a wide range of used cable products from well-known brands such as ARRIS and Cisco. Every year, the market is inundated with pieces of used equipment, which allows smaller cable companies with limited budgets to build the systems they need with top-quality, cutting-edge technology.
In 2018, many cable companies found out for themselves how they could benefit from purchasing used cable equipment. Based on the sales trends of last year, we’ve compiled a list of the top 12 pieces of used cable equipment for sale in 2019.

If you’re looking for equipment that will enable you to meet your customers’ ever-increasing bandwidth needs, as well as greater programmability and agility to respond quickly in a dynamic network environment, this system is the right choice for you. Thanks to its use of nLight Silicone, it combines soft-decision forward error correction with multi-modulation capability, which enables it to trade off reach versus transmission rate. The outcome is outstanding optical performance.
9. Cisco A9K-8x100GE-SE
This 8-port 100 Gigabit Ethernet Line Card delivers top of the line high density to any designated slot of a Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router. It removes bottlenecks in the network that are caused by a sudden increase in IPTV, VoD, Internet video, point-to-point video and cloud services traffic. Thanks to its Cisco CPAK™ technology, customers gain the ability to mix and match the different types of interfaces on the same line card.
10. Cisco uBR-MC88V
This next-gen line card supports the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router, making it one of the most advanced platforms for entry-level or mid-level CMTSs available on the market today. Cable operators, ISPs and MxU businesses can leverage its high bandwidth capabilities to deliver carrier-class IP-based video, data and voice services in the most cost-effective manner possible.
11. Cisco UBR-MC3G60V
This Cisco broadband processing engine offers full DOCSIS 3.0 support for the uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router. It features 60 upstream and 72 DOCSIS downstream channels per card, which greatly enhances the capability of CMTS solutions.
12. Cisco UBR10K-PRE5
Designed to provide better scalability and higher performance, this Performance Routing Engine offers cable providers a flexible, simple path to an all-IP infrastructure without overburdening operations, budget or space requirements.
Discover the Benefits of Used Cable Equipment
Purchasing new cable equipment can provide you with access to the latest technology and support features. Nevertheless, for smaller cable companies, used cable modem transmission systems can offer the same capabilities at a much lower price.
Purchasing used Cable equipment from Worldwide Supply offers several advantages, including:
- Cost control: You gain access to top-quality equipment for a lower price.
- Lifetime warranties: While OEM devices come with a limited warranty, used equipment from Worldwide Supply comes with a lifetime warranty.
- Sufficient replacements: It can be challenging to find replacement parts once a manufacturer stops producing a piece of equipment. With used cable equipment, it’s easier to find affordable replacement components that you can keep on hand.
Used cable equipment can help you run — or even improve — your operations within your budget. If you’re thinking about adding used devices to your operations in 2019, consider choosing Worldwide Supply to buy or sell your devices.
