C9300-24H-A Description
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-24H-A is the industry's most advanced high-power enterprise switch, built to power the future of smart buildings and IoT convergence. As the flagship UPOE+ model in the Catalyst 9300 family, it features 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports capable of delivering up to 90W per port (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4). This immense power capacity, combined with a robust 830W default budget, allows it to support the most demanding endpoints, including USB-C laptop charging stations, high-density LED lighting grids, and industrial automation sensors.
Equipped with the Network Advantage software license, this switch offers the complete suite of enterprise capabilities, including full Layer 3 routing (BGP, MPLS), VRF segmentation, and comprehensive SD-Access fabric roles (Control/Border Node). It features a modular expansion slot for uplinks up to 40G and supports StackWise-480 technology for superior scale. Powered by the UADP 2.0 ASIC and x86 CPU, the C9300-24H-A provides a secure, programmable, and future-proof foundation for mission-critical OT/IT integration.

Key Features
Maximum Density. Delivers up to 90 Watts per port, complying with the IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 standard. This capability enables the switch to power the most demanding IoT devices, including USB-C charged laptops, large LCD displays, and industrial sensors, creating a true single-cable solution for power and data.
Flexible Scalability. Features a modular uplink slot that supports 1G, 10G, 25G, and 40G network modules. This design flexibility allows IT teams to upgrade uplink speeds as bandwidth requirements increase, ensuring the switch remains relevant for years to come.
Unified Operations. Supports the stacking of up to 8 switches into a single logical unit with 480 Gbps of backplane throughput. This simplifies management and provides critical redundancy, ensuring that power and data services remain uninterrupted even if a member switch fails.
IoT Defense. Equipped with Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA) to identify malware in encrypted traffic without decryption. Combined with Cisco TrustSec and MACsec encryption, it secures the expanding attack surface of IoT devices, preventing them from becoming entry points for cyber threats.
Full Core Routing. Includes the top-tier Network Advantage license, enabling advanced protocols like BGP, IS-IS, and MPLS. This allows the switch to function as a powerful distribution or core node, handling complex WAN peering, VRF segmentation, and IoT traffic isolation directly at the edge.
Edge Intelligence. The x86 CPU architecture supports hosting third-party applications in Docker containers. This allows for the deployment of edge computing applications, such as building management systems or environmental monitoring agents, directly on the switch hardware.
Application Scenarios
Laptop Charging. The 90W UPOE+ capability can power USB-C dongles that charge employee laptops directly via the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for bulky power bricks at every desk, creating a cleaner, more flexible workspace environment.
HVAC & Lighting Control. Ideally suited for the “Digital Ceiling.” It can power and control heavy-duty motorized window shades, high-lumen LED lighting, and HVAC actuators, converging building automation systems onto a single, secure IP network for energy efficiency.
Rugged Connectivity. Perfect for manufacturing floors requiring high power for industrial sensors, robotic arms, or PTZ thermal cameras. The advanced routing and segmentation features ensure that critical OT traffic is isolated from the corporate IT network, preventing interference and cyber threats.

Selection Guide
- Requirement for Ultra-High Power (90W)
Select this UPOE+ model if you need to power 90W endpoints like high-brightness displays, heavy-duty actuators, or USB-C laptop charging docks. The 60W UPOE models cannot support these high-draw applications. - Engineering Requirement for Full Routing
Choose this Advantage model over the Essentials version if your network design requires full dynamic routing (BGP, MPLS) or complex VRF segmentation. It is the mandatory choice for sites acting as an SD-Access Control Plane or Border Node. - Modular Scalability
Choose this modular C9300 model if you anticipate bandwidth growth. The ability to swap uplink modules (1G to 40G) provides a clear upgrade path without replacing the switch, unlike fixed uplink models. - Digital Building Convergence
This switch is the ultimate platform for converging IT and OT networks. Its combination of 90W power, high security (ETA), and edge computing (App Hosting) makes it uniquely capable of managing smart building ecosystems securely.
Switch Rear Panel
The switch rear panel includes StackWise connectors, StackPower or XPS connectors, ports, fan modules, and power supply modules.
Components Delivered in the Shipping Box
The shipping box contains the model of the switch you ordered and other components needed for installation. Some components are optional, depending on your order.
