Focus on data security
Professional network equipment buyback with certified data erasure
In accordance with NIST SP 800-88 and DIN 66399
When selling network technology, the focus is not only on data protection but also on the security of your infrastructure. Used switches, routers and firewalls often contain sensitive configuration files, VPN access details or other information. IT-RESELL.COM guarantees the complete removal of these data sets. Every device undergoes a standardised process to fully reset it to factory settings, as well as certified data erasure of integrated memory modules.
Erasure is carried out in a certified manner in accordance with NIST SP 800-88 (Rev. 2) – on request in line with your country’s erasure standard – with an erasure certificate for each device or storage medium. We ensure that no fragments of your network history remain on the hardware. Memory modules that cannot be erased due to a defect are physically destroyed in accordance with DIN 66399 / ISO/IEC 21964. With the erasure certificate, you can document your erasure obligations as the controller under the GDPR – evidence that is indispensable for authorities and companies in regulated sectors during audits and in their compliance documentation.
Refurbishment & reporting
Reuse instead of disposal of your network equipment
Refurbishment, remarketing and recycling
After you sell your decommissioned network components to IT-RESELL.COM, we refurbish the hardware through professional IT refurbishment and remarket it. As network devices often run reliably for many years, they are particularly well suited for reuse. Devices that can no longer be refurbished are sent for recycling.
Upon completion of the project, you will receive a reporting document stating the number of refurbished and recycled devices, a CO₂ certificate specifically showing the emissions saved compared to new production, and the erasure certificates for each device or storage medium. You can use these documents for your CSR reporting, audits or internal documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have any questions about selling network equipment?
Here you will find answers to the most important questions
We buy all types of used network equipment: switches, routers, firewalls, access points, Wi-Fi controllers, transceivers and UPS systems – from manufacturers such as Cisco, HPE Aruba, Juniper, Arista, Fortinet, Palo Alto and many more. We also assess brands or models not listed here on a case-by-case basis and will provide you with a fair offer.
The process is simple and straightforward:
- 1. Send your device list – Send us a list of your network devices by email or via our customer portal.
- 2. Binding quote – We will assess your used network equipment quickly and fairly.
- 3. On-site collection – We organise logistics throughout the EU – securely and on time.
- 4. Certified data erasure – Factory reset and erasure using certified erasure software in accordance with NIST SP 800-88 (Rev. 2) and IEEE 2883, with an erasure certificate for each device or storage medium. Faulty memory modules are physically destroyed in accordance with DIN 66399 / ISO/IEC 21964.
- 5. Fast payment – Once the inspection has been successfully completed, you will receive the agreed amount.
No, we take care of that. Switches, routers and firewalls store configuration files, VPN credentials, passwords and certificates in their internal memory. We reset every device to factory settings and erase the memory modules using certified erasure software in accordance with NIST SP 800-88 (Rev. 2) and IEEE 2883 – and, on request, in line with your country’s erasure standard. You will receive an audit-proof erasure certificate for each device or storage medium. Memory modules that cannot be erased due to a defect are physically destroyed in accordance with DIN 66399 / ISO/IEC 21964. If you would like to reuse your configurations, please back them up before collection.
The buyback price of a used switch – whether from Cisco or another manufacturer – mainly depends on the series and model, the number and speed of ports (for example 1G, 10G, 25G or 100G), PoE capability and condition. Included power supplies, fans and plug-in modules are also taken into account, as are the end-of-sale or end-of-support status and current demand on the second-hand market. Send us your device list with model and serial numbers, and you will receive a binding quote.
Yes! We also assess EOL (End-of-Life) and EOS (End-of-Sale) hardware – older switch and router series in particular are in demand as spare or expansion devices for existing networks. We examine faulty devices on a case-by-case basis – components such as power supplies, fan modules, line cards or transceivers can often still be reused.
Yes, we collect your network equipment from your premises anywhere in the EU – from a single switch to the complete network infrastructure of a site. On request, we can also take care of professional packaging. Logistics and transport costs are already included in our service.
