C9300-24UB-E Description
C9300-24UB-E is the Network Essentials Cisco Catalyst 9300 higher-scale 24-port 1G UPOE access switch for modular-uplink campus edge stacks.
Order this SKU when the required difference is the UB scale profile, not extra access ports or mGig downlinks. Compared with C9300-24U-E, C9300-24UB-E keeps 24 10/100/1000 UPOE copper ports, an 830W PoE budget with the default 1100W AC supply, and Network Essentials, while adding the higher-scale 32 MB packet buffer, 64,000 MAC address table, and 112,000 IPv4 route scale.
The quote should be checked for higher-scale stack membership, the C9300-NM-8X default uplink choice or another supported C9300-NM selection, C9300-DNX-E-24 subscription duration, PWR-C1-1100WAC-P power design, StackWise cable length, StackPower cabling, regional cord, price request, availability check, warranty support, and shipping destination.

Product Performance
Key Features
The `-E` suffix identifies the Network Essentials order line while the `24UB` base hardware keeps the higher-scale 24-port UPOE profile.
Cisco separates C9300-24UB from standard C9300 stacking plans by stating that higher-scale models need to be stacked with other higher-scale models.
The access side remains 24 10/100/1000 UPOE copper ports, keeping the SKU distinct from data-only, PoE+, UPOE+, and mGig Catalyst 9300 variants.
Cisco ordering defaults C9300 modular-uplink SKUs to C9300-NM-8X, while alternate C9300 network modules or C9300-NM-NONE can be selected.
The 32 MB packet buffer, 64,000 MAC address scale, and 112,000 IPv4 route scale are the facts that separate C9300-24UB-E from C9300-24U-E.
C9300-24UB is listed with an 830W PoE budget and StackPower support, so the power supply and StackPower cable choices should be checked with the powered-endpoint plan.
Application Scenarios
C9300-24UB-E fits a Catalyst access layer that needs Network Essentials licensing and the UB hardware scale while keeping downlinks at 24 1G UPOE ports.
Use this SKU only when the stack design is already based on higher-scale Catalyst 9300 members such as C9300-24UB, C9300-24UXB, or C9300-48UB.
The SKU works for a 24-port UPOE closet refresh where the downlink profile is fixed but the uplink decision must remain tied to C9300-NM module selection.

- In a C9300-24UB-E vs C9300-24UB-A comparison, the hardware, 24 UPOE ports, 830W default PoE budget, 32 MB buffer, and higher-scale stack group match; the confirmed difference is Network Essentials versus Network Advantage.
- The C9300-24UB-E difference from C9300-24U-E is the scale profile, because C9300-24UB-E has the higher-scale 32 MB buffer, 64,000 MAC addresses, and 112,000 IPv4 routes while C9300-24U-E is the standard 24-port UPOE model.
- For C9300-24UB-E vs C9300-24UXB-E, the comparison turns on downlink speed and buffer size: C9300-24UB-E is 24-port 1G UPOE with a 32 MB buffer, while C9300-24UXB-E is 24-port 10G/mGig UPOE with a 64 MB buffer.
- In a C9300-24UB-E vs C9300-48UB-E comparison, the which model to choose question starts with port density, because both are higher-scale Network Essentials UPOE switches but the 48UB SKU has 48 access ports and different listed PoE and performance values.
Selection Guide
1. Use it for Essentials plus UB scale
Choose C9300-24UB-E when the BOM calls for Network Essentials and the higher-scale 24-port UPOE Catalyst 9300 hardware.
2. Move to Advantage only on purpose
Use C9300-24UB-A only when the same higher-scale hardware must carry the Network Advantage license tier.
3. Treat C9300-24U-E as standard-scale hardware
Select C9300-24U-E only when standard Catalyst 9300 scale is acceptable and the UB buffer and table values are not part of the requirement.
4. Separate speed and port-density changes
Move to C9300-24UXB-E for higher-scale 10G/mGig UPOE access or C9300-48UB-E when the same Essentials tier needs 48 higher-scale 1G UPOE ports.
PoE Power Planning
|
Planning Item |
Cisco Confirmed Value |
Order Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Default PoE budget |
C9300-24UB is listed with 830W available PoE and PWR-C1-1100WAC-P as the default supply |
Size the UPOE endpoint plan against the confirmed default budget before adding secondary power |
|
Secondary supply options |
The C9300-24UB power table lists higher PoE values when compatible secondary supplies are added |
Decide whether the order needs redundancy, additional PoE capacity, or a blank supply module |
|
UPOE access profile |
C9300-24UB is a 24-port 10/100/1000 UPOE model |
Prevent substitution with data-only, PoE+, UPOE+, or mGig access SKUs unless the endpoint requirement changes |
|
StackPower |
C9300-24UB supports StackPower |
Add StackPower cables only when the stack power design requires shared power across compatible Catalyst 9300 members |
Ordering Checklist
|
Review Area |
Required Confirmation |
Procurement Risk Controlled |
|---|---|---|
|
Ordering identity |
Use C9300-24UB-E on the hardware line |
Prevents the Network Essentials higher-scale SKU from being replaced by the Advantage `-A` variant or the standard C9300-24U-E model |
|
Stack design |
Match C9300-24UB with higher-scale Catalyst 9300 members |
Keeps the stack plan inside the Cisco-supported higher-scale stacking boundary |
|
Uplink choice |
Keep the default C9300-NM-8X or select another supported C9300-NM option |
Avoids an uplink mismatch when the deployment needs a different module or no network module |
|
Subscription line |
Select the C9300-DNX-E-24 term option for the chosen duration |
Aligns the Catalyst Essentials software subscription with the 24-port Network Essentials switch |
|
Power bill of materials |
Confirm PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, 830W default PoE budget, second supply decision, and StackPower cable need |
Prevents powered-access assumptions from being separated from the Cisco-confirmed power configuration |
|
Quote release details |
Check power cord region, StackWise cable length, price request, availability check, warranty support, and shipping destination |
Ensures commercial processing follows the final hardware, license, power, stacking, and regional accessory decisions |
