C9300-24U-A Description
C9300-24U-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300 stackable access switch with 24 10/100/1000 UPOE copper ports, modular uplink support, an 830W PoE budget with the default 1100W AC supply, StackWise-480, StackPower, and Network Advantage.
The order fits access closets where 60W-class Cisco UPOE endpoints matter more than simply adding PoE+ ports. The closest same-port split is C9300-24U-E with Network Essentials, while C9300-24P-A keeps the 24-port Catalyst 9300 form factor but changes the powered-access profile to PoE+.
Procurement review should confirm the uplink network module, StackWise and StackPower cabling, second power supply plan, Catalyst Advantage software term, power cord region, availability, warranty support, and shipping destination against the final bill of materials.

Product Performance
Key Features
The `24U` hardware profile identifies this as the 24-port 1G Cisco UPOE member of the modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 family, not a data-only or PoE+ access switch.
The `-A` suffix confirms Network Advantage, separating C9300-24U-A from the C9300-24U-E Essentials order line while keeping the same C9300-24U hardware profile.
C9300 modular-uplink switches do not include the uplink module in the default switch configuration, so the quote needs the selected C9300-NM module when uplink ports are required.
StackWise-480 support lets this model join Catalyst 9300 stack designs where stack members, cables, and license levels are planned together.
StackPower support allows the power design to include shared power cabling across compatible Catalyst 9300 stack members when the site standard calls for it.
The C9300-24U hardware profile is tied to a 1100W AC default supply, which is a key difference from lower-power 24-port data and PoE+ Catalyst 9300 models.
Application Scenarios
Use C9300-24U-A where the wiring closet must support a 24-port 1G access switch for endpoints that require Cisco UPOE rather than only PoE+.
The SKU fits a Catalyst 9300 campus standard that combines Network Advantage with StackWise-480 and StackPower planning across access-layer stack members.
The switch is suitable when downlink requirements are fixed at 24 UPOE ports but uplink speed still needs to be chosen through a C9300 network module.

- In a C9300-24U-A vs C9300-24U-E comparison, the hardware profile, 24 UPOE ports, PoE budget, StackWise-480 support, and StackPower support align; the table difference is Network Advantage versus Network Essentials.
- The C9300-24U-A difference from C9300-24P-A is the powered-access profile and default power supply: C9300-24U-A is the UPOE model with an 830W budget, while C9300-24P-A is the PoE+ model with a 715W AC default supply.
- For C9300-24U-A vs C9300-48U-A, the comparison is port density and platform capacity: the 48U model has 48 UPOE ports and higher listed switching and forwarding figures.
- The which model to choose check should start with UPOE versus PoE+, Network Advantage versus Essentials, and 24-port versus 48-port access density because those are the confirmed differences in the comparison table.
Selection Guide
1. Select it for 24-port UPOE access
Choose C9300-24U-A when the bill of materials needs a 24-port Catalyst 9300 UPOE switch with Network Advantage and modular uplink selection.
2. Keep Essentials separate
Use C9300-24U-E only when the same 24-port UPOE hardware should be ordered with Network Essentials instead of Network Advantage.
3. Avoid PoE+ substitution
Move to C9300-24P-A only when the deployment requirement is PoE+ access, because it changes the powered-port profile and default power supply plan.
4. Step up for 48 UPOE ports
Specify C9300-48U-A when the access layer needs 48 UPOE downlink ports in one Catalyst 9300 chassis rather than the 24-port C9300-24U profile.
PoE Power Planning
|
Planning Item |
Cisco Confirmed Value |
Order Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Default PoE budget |
C9300-24U is listed with 830W available PoE and a PWR-C1-1100WAC-P default supply |
Match the endpoint count and power draw to the 830W switch-level budget |
|
Power supply slots |
Catalyst 9300 switches use two internal power supply module slots |
Decide whether the second slot needs a redundant supply or a blank module |
|
UPOE versus PoE+ |
C9300-24U is the Cisco UPOE model, while C9300-24P is the PoE+ model |
Prevent a lower-power PoE+ order line from replacing a UPOE requirement |
|
StackPower |
C9300-24U supports StackPower |
Add StackPower cables only when the stack power design requires shared power |
