Product Overview
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-24UX-E is a high-performance Layer 3 switch featuring 24 multigigabit (mGig) and PoE+ ports, designed to support high-bandwidth access points, next-gen Wi-Fi deployments, and high-speed enterprise devices. With support for multigigabit Ethernet, advanced security, and full SD-Access integration, it is a future-proof solution for modern enterprise networks.
Product Description
Cisco C9300-24UX-E is part of the Catalyst 9300 Series, purpose-built for high-density, high-performance access layers. It provides 24 multigigabit (100 Mbps / 1G / 2.5G / 5G / 10G) ports with PoE+ support, making it ideal for next-gen wireless (Wi-Fi 6/6E), video conferencing, and high-speed edge applications. Preloaded with the Network Essentials software image, it supports advanced Layer 3 routing protocols such as OSPF, EIGRP, and multicast. The switch supports StackWise-480 stacking technology, with 480 Gbps bandwidth and stacking of up to 8 units. It also features modular uplinks for flexible expansion. Enhanced with MACsec encryption, TrustSec, and Cisco DNA Center support, this model is built for secure, automated, and scalable digital infrastructure.
