C9300-24T-A Description

The C9300-24T-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series stackable access switch for copper wiring closets that connect desktops, printers and other data-only endpoints. The switch has 24 10/100/1000 copper ports, a modular uplink slot, 208 Gbps of switching capacity and a default 350W AC supply, and carries the Network Advantage license. The ports provide no PoE, and the switch stacks over StackWise-480 only with other Catalyst 9300 models at the same license level.

Key Features

24 Data-Only Copper Ports

The 10/100/1000 ports are fixed RJ-45 on Cat 5e. With no PoE circuitry, the 350W supply is sized for the switch alone.

Choice Of Uplink Module

The slot ships empty and takes the C9300-NM-4G for 4x 1G, the C9300-NM-8X for 8x 10G/1G SFP+ or the C9300-NM-2Q for 2x 40G. Uplink speed follows the module fitted.

Network Advantage Segmentation

VRF, VXLAN, LISP and Cisco TrustSec come with this license, so segmentation policy can start at the access layer.

Routing And Automation Scope

BGP, EIGRP, IS-IS and MPLS are covered, along with NETCONF, RESTCONF and YANG, so the closet can take a larger routing role.

StackWise-480 And StackPower

Up to eight units form one stack at 480 Gbps, and StackPower lets members share power so one failed supply does not take a member offline.

Second Supply Option

A second PWR-C1-715WAC-P or PWR-C1-1100WAC-P can be added for 1+1 redundancy. The three-fan tray is field-replaceable and N+1 redundant.

Application Scenarios

Copper Access Closet

A floor closet that serves desktops, workstations and lab benches over Cat 5e cabling can use the switch’s 24 copper ports for devices that need no PoE.

Fiber Uplinks To Distribution

With a C9300-NM-8X or C9300-NM-2Y fitted, the switch hands 10G or 25G fiber uplinks from the closet back to a distribution or core switch.

Segmented Campus Access

A campus design that extends VXLAN, LISP or Cisco TrustSec policy down to the access layer can run it on the switch itself rather than only at distribution.

480 Gbps

C9300-24T-A and C9300-24T-E share the same 24 copper ports, modular uplink bay and 208 Gbps of switching capacity, and the difference is the license: Network Advantage adds BGP, EIGRP, VRF, VXLAN and Cisco TrustSec, so an access closet that only needs Layer 2 and basic routing can drop to C9300-24T-E and give those features up. Closets with more than 24 copper drops move to C9300-48T-A, with 48 ports and 256 Gbps of switching capacity on the same 350W supply. Powered endpoints need C9300-24P-A, which adds a 445W PoE budget on a 715W supply.

Ordering Checklist

  • Subscription tier: Select an Advantage term such as C9300-DNA-A-24 in 3, 5 or 7 years. The subscription tier must match the Network Advantage switch license; the configurator default is Advantage for 5 years.
  • Uplink module: Keep the default C9300-NM-8X, change it, or select C9300-NM-NONE. The default module is added to the order unless it is changed or removed.
  • Second power supply: A second PWR-C1-350WAC-P is selected by default; C9300-SPS-NONE removes it. The second supply is added to the order unless it is removed.
  • Stack cables: A default 50 cm StackWise cable (C9300-STACK-NONE removes it) and 30 cm StackPower cable (C9300-SPWR-NONE removes it) are added. Both cables are added whether or not the switch is stacked.
  • Power cords: Select the cord type for the destination country. The configurator defaults to North America cords, and two cords ship per switch.

Questions & Answers

  • Can C9300-24T-A be stacked?

    Yes. C9300-24T-A stacks over StackWise-480 with up to 8 members, which gives 688 Gbps of stacked switching capacity. Members must be Catalyst 9300 models at the same license level, and StackPower is supported for sharing power between members.
  • What does Network Advantage on C9300-24T-A include?

    Network Advantage on C9300-24T-A includes BGP, EIGRP, IS-IS, MPLS, VRF, VXLAN, LISP and Cisco TrustSec, along with NETCONF, RESTCONF and YANG. The switch carries this license, and a subscription such as C9300-DNA-A-24 must match the Advantage tier.
  • How much heat do the second power supplies for C9300-24T-A output?

    A second PWR-C1-715WAC-P in C9300-24T-A has an output rating of 2440 BTU/hr, and a PWR-C1-1100WAC-P is rated at 3754 BTU/hr. The switch has no PoE load, so the second supply adds redundancy only. Account for the supply when sizing closet cooling.
  • What goes into the empty uplink bay of C9300-24T-A when no network module is installed?

    A C9300-NM-BLANK cover must be installed in the bay when no network module is fitted. C9300-24T-A ships with the bay unpopulated, and no uplink module is included by default. Select C9300-NM-NONE on the order to leave the module out of the quote.
  • Which USB and console ports does C9300-24T-A have?

    C9300-24T-A has a USB Type A port (USB 3.0, 5V at 900 mA) for Cisco USB flash drives, a USB mini-Type B console and an RJ-45 console. The rear panel has a USB 3.0 SSD slot that takes a 120 GB or 240 GB drive, and the front panel carries a built-in passive RFID tag.
  • Which Cisco Catalyst subscription PID family matches the Network Advantage license on C9300-24T-A?

    C9300-24T-A pairs with the C9300-DNX-A-24 family for a Cisco Catalyst subscription and C9300-DNA-A-24 for Cisco DNA, each with a 3, 5 or 7-year term suffix. The tier must be Advantage to match the built-in license. Both Advantage terms also bundle Cisco Spaces Extend, PID D-DNAS-EXT-S-T.
  • Which ThousandEyes license is included with an Advantage subscription on C9300-24T-A?

    Cisco ThousandEyes Network and Application Synthetics, PID TE-EMBEDDED-T, is included by default with a 3, 5 or 7-year Cisco Catalyst or Cisco DNA Advantage subscription on C9300-24T-A, for the same term. It is not included with Network Essentials, so the tier decides whether it is added.
  • Which StackPower cables does C9300-24T-A use?

    C9300-24T-A uses CAB-SPWR-30CM or CAB-SPWR-150CM StackPower cables, and the 30 cm cable is the configurator default. StackWise data cables are STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M and STACK-T1-3M. StackPower is available only on modular-uplink models, not on Catalyst 9300L or 9300LM, so order the cables for this switch.
  • How many C9300-24T-A switches can share power in a StackPower ring?

    A StackPower ring joins up to four switches, and the XPS 2200 expandable power system raises that to eight in a star topology. An eight-member data stack can hold two power stacks. Because C9300-24T-A has no PoE load, the ring is used for power redundancy rather than for endpoint budget.
