C9300-24H-E Description
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-24H-E is an ultra-high-power enterprise access switch designed to drive the most demanding IoT and digital building ecosystems. As a UPOE+ model in the modular Catalyst 9300 family, it features 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports capable of delivering an industry-leading 90W of power per port (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4). This massive power capacity allows it to support heavy-duty endpoints such as high-brightness LED lighting, large digital signage displays, and motorized building systems that were previously impossible to power via Ethernet.
Running on the Network Essentials license, this switch provides the core Layer 2/3 features needed for a stable access network, including OSPF Routed Access and advanced security via Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA). It features a modular expansion slot for uplinks up to 40G and supports StackWise-480 technology, delivering 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth. Powered by the UADP 2.0 ASIC, the C9300-24H-E is the ultimate foundation for converging IT and OT (Operational Technology) onto a single, manageable platform.

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.
Network Essentials. Includes the Network Essentials license, offering key routing features such as Static Routing and OSPF Routed Access. This allows the switch to route local traffic efficiently, isolating high-bandwidth IoT streams into separate VLANs for optimal performance.
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.
High-Power Display. Ideal for powering large public information displays or interactive kiosks in retail and airports. The 90W budget supports the screen and the media player simultaneously, simplifying installation by removing the need for a separate AC power outlet.
Heavy-Duty IoT. Perfect for manufacturing or logistics environments where sensors, actuators, and IP cameras require high power. The rugged design and high power budget ensure reliable operation for mission-critical operational technology (OT) systems.

Selection Guide
- Requirement for Ultra-High Power (90W)
Select this UPOE+ model if you need to power 90W devices like large displays, high-performance VDI clients, or daisy-chained lighting fixtures. The 60W UPOE models may not suffice for these next-gen endpoints. - Engineering Requirement for Modular Uplinks
Choose this modular C9300 model if you anticipate bandwidth growth. The ability to swap the uplink module allows you to migrate from 1G to 40G without replacing the switch, securing your investment. - Essentials License Fit
Choose this Essentials model if your network design utilizes a standard Layer 2 Access model or basic static routing. It delivers the maximum power capability (90W) without the extra cost of advanced core routing licenses (BGP/MPLS) found in the Advantage models. - Maximized Power Budget
With the ability to add a second 1100W power supply, this switch can deliver over 1800W of PoE budget, ensuring that even if every port draws high power, the switch will not falter.
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.
