C9200-24P-A Description
The C9200-24P-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series modular-uplink stackable access switch for wiring closets that power phones and access points. The switch has 24 1G PoE+ ports, a modular uplink slot, a 370W PoE budget on the default PWR-C6-600WAC and 128 Gbps of switching capacity that rises to 288 Gbps in a StackWise-160 stack. The -A suffix carries Network Advantage, which adds EIGRP, IS-IS, VRF, VXLAN and LISP to the Network Essentials feature set.

Key Features
Network Advantage adds EIGRP, IS-IS, VRF, VXLAN and LISP to the Network Essentials feature set, so department or tenant routing can end at the closet instead of at the distribution layer.
The default 600W supply leaves 370W for PoE, about 15W per port across 24 ports. A second PWR-C6-600WAC raises the budget to 740W, above the 720W that 24 PoE+ ports can draw, so every port can run at 30W.
The single uplink slot takes the C9200-NM-4G for four 1G ports or the C9200-NM-4X for four 1G/10G ports, and a C9200-NM-BLANK keeps airflow intact when no uplink is fitted. Uplink speed is a module choice, so a closet can start on 1G and move to 10G without replacing the switch.
Up to eight C9200 switches of the same license level join one StackWise-160 stack at 160 Gbps. The stack acts as a single switch with up to 384 access ports and sub-50 ms failover.
Both power supplies and the fan modules are field-replaceable, so a failed unit is swapped at the rack without removing the switch from service in the closet.
The PWR-C6-715WDC= supply gives 485W of PoE alone and 740W as a pair, and it can sit beside an AC supply as primary and backup. It is a spare-part supply that needs Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 or later.
Application Scenarios
In a floor wiring closet, the switch powers IP phones and wireless access points from its 24 PoE+ ports and carries their traffic to the distribution layer over the uplink module.
On an office floor shared by several tenants or departments, the switch keeps each group in its own VRF and starts that separation at the access layer.
A branch office that outgrows one switch can add C9200 members to a StackWise-160 stack and manage the group as a single switch.

C9200-24P-A is the 24-port PoE+ Network Advantage model of this group: its ports share 370W on the default PWR-C6-600WAC and 740W with a second supply, while C9200-24T-A has the same 128 Gbps chassis and modular uplink bay on a PWR-C6-125WAC with no PoE, which suits closets that power no devices. Closets with more than 24 powered drops need C9200-48P-A, with 740W on one PWR-C6-1KWAC and 1440W on two. Uplinks fixed at 4 x 1/10G SFP+ are available on C9200L-24P-4X-A at the same 370W, but it stacks on StackWise-80 at 208 Gbps instead of 288 Gbps and cannot take uplink modules. Sites that do not need VRF, VXLAN or EIGRP can order C9200-24P-E instead, and an Essentials switch can be raised later with a C9200-LIC= term (C9200-24-E-A-3, -5 or -7), which cannot go on the switch order.

Ordering Checklist
- Subscription: Select a matching Advantage 24-port term, such as C9200-DNA-A-24 or C9200-DNX-A-24-3Y. The hardware suffix sets the tier, CCW defaults to a 3-year Cisco DNA term that must match it, and a Smart Account is mandatory on every Catalyst 9200 order.
- Uplink module: Select one of C9200-NM-4G (4 x 1G), C9200-NM-4X (4 x 1G/10G) or C9200-NM-BLANK; C9200-NM-2Y and C9200-NM-2Q do not apply. The modular bay ships without a chosen uplink speed, so a module or blank must fill it.
- Second power supply: A second PWR-C6-600WAC is optional; PWR-C6-715WDC= is spare-only. One supply gives 370W of PoE; two give 740W.
- Stack kit: Add C9200-STACK-KIT (two stack adapters and one cable) plus STACK-T4-50CM, STACK-T4-1M or STACK-T4-3M for longer runs. Stacking is an optional line in CCW, and C9200L-STACK-KIT is the kit for fixed-uplink models only.
- Power cord: Select a CAB-TA cord for the destination country, such as CAB-TA-NA=, CAB-TA-EU= or CAB-TA-UK=. AC power supplies need a cord selected in CCW.
