Cisco offers Visio outlines and stencils for all their products online:
As far as getting a repair schematic, I can state definitively that you cannot get that anywhere, at any price, legally or illegally. While there are some Russian sites that post just about every copyrighted repair schematic that exists online, you will have better luck finding a flying pig who can speak Japanese than finding a schematic for ANY product that Cisco makes. Those are closely guarded trade secrets and the devices are not meant to be field-repairable.

that's IP (intellectual property).
Cisco has a very large staff or people who do nothing but look for individuals or companies who are trying to reverse-engineer or steal their IP.
The only reason that information might exist would be for repair technicians or for Cisco internal use.
Cisco equipment, like most computer gear, is not field-repairable at anything other than the board-level. Therefore schematics, parts diagrams, or internal part numbers are simply not available. In most cases the boards are not marked with the component numbers since there is no reason to do that.
Just curious, why do you need this?
Are you trying to repair a Cisco device, working on some class project, or trying to build your own Cicso clone?
