The 351-080 exam — formally the CCIE Data Center Written Beta Exam — is Cisco's certification exam for validating professional skills with its technologies; passing it earns the CCIE Data Center certification, a Expert-level credential. It is popular among job seekers for a simple reason: employers trust vendor-issued proof of skill. It also opens the path toward CCIE Data Center Lab Exam.

You can book the Cisco CCIE Data Center Written Beta through these official channels:

• Pearson VUE Registration
• Cisco Exam Page

One scheduling note: the 351-080 exam is delivered Computer-based testing at Pearson VUE centers or online proctored — keep that in mind when choosing your session.

The 351-080 exam gives you 90–120 questions to complete within 120 minutes. That pacing is tighter than it looks on paper, and untimed practice will not reveal it. Rehearse with the iPassleader Windows software or online engine in timed mode — repeating full-length mocks until your rhythm holds is what turns preparation time into passing margin.

Passing requires Not publicly disclosed (Beta exam), and official registration costs Beta pricing (typically discounted; standard $400 USD). Remember the fee buys one attempt only — a retake is billed in full again. The budget-friendly approach is to measure yourself first: work through 120 practice questions at iPassleader under timed conditions until you clear the passing mark consistently, and only then pay for the seat.

No formal prerequisites; 5–7 years of experience recommended

Vendor policies change from time to time, so before scheduling, confirm the current criteria on the official Cisco exam page.
