Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) Written Exam: 400-007 Exam Premium File as PDF & Test Engine

The 400-007 exam, officially titled Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) Written Exam, is the qualifying test for the Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) certification from Cisco, a credential at the Expert level. Passing it proves you have the skills employers look for in certified professionals, and it can also support progress toward related credentials such as Cisco Certified Specialist - Design Core, CCDE Practical Exam.

The Cisco Certified Design Expert (CCDE) Written exam gives you 120 minutes to work through 90-110 questions. That is a steady pace with little room for second-guessing, so train yourself to read each question once, flag the difficult ones, and keep moving. Before exam day, sit at least two full timed sessions in the Fast2test test engine — when the clock feels familiar, it stops being a threat.

You need 800 out of 1000 to pass, and the official registration fee is $450 USD. Fall short and you pay that fee in full again for every retake, which makes solid preparation the cheaper option by far. Work through the Fast2test practice questions until you score comfortably above the passing mark, then book your seat.

No mandatory prerequisites; 7+ years of network design experience recommended Eligibility rules can change over time, so before you register, confirm the latest requirements on the official exam page: Cisco 400-007 exam overview.
