C9300L-24T-4G-E Description
The C9300L-24T-4G-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink stackable access switch for campus access closets that connect desktops, printers and other locally powered devices. The switch has 24 Gigabit copper ports, four fixed 1G SFP uplinks and 56 Gbps of switching capacity, and its Network Essentials license covers Layer 2 and routed access with OSPF limited to 1,000 routes. The 350W default supply carries no PoE, and the license does not include BGP, VXLAN or MPLS.

Product Performance
Key Features
The 24 10/100/1000 copper ports carry data only, with no PoE output, so they suit desktops, printers and devices powered locally.
Four 1G SFP ports are built into the chassis and take fiber or copper SFP modules toward the aggregation switch. There is no module slot to change the uplink speed later.
The license covers Layer 2 switching, 802.1X, MACsec-128, QoS and routed access with RIP, EIGRP stub and OSPF up to 1,000 routes. Telemetry and SPAN tools are included at this tier.
Up to eight switches join one StackWise-320 stack at 320 Gbps of stacking bandwidth. Members must be Catalyst 9300L or 9300LM switches at the same license level, and fixed-uplink models do not stack with modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 or Catalyst 3850 and 3650 switches.
The 350W AC supply is the default, and the chassis has two internal supply slots. A second 350W, 715W or 1100W supply can be added, and there is no PoE output to budget for.
The switch holds 32,000 MAC addresses and 32,000 IPv4 routes, with a 16 MB packet buffer and 64,000 NetFlow flows. 8 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash support the same IOS XE image used across the Catalyst 9300 family.
Application Scenarios
In a closet that serves office desktops and printers, the switch provides Gigabit copper access and forwards traffic to the distribution layer over its 1G SFP uplinks.
A building that routes between a few VLANs at the access layer can use the switch for RIP, EIGRP stub or OSPF routed access within the 1,000-route limit.
A closet that outgrows its current port count can add the switch to a Catalyst 9300L stack running at the same license level, so no new management address is needed.

C9300L-24T-4G-E is the Network Essentials version of C9300L-24T-4G-A, with the same 24 data-only 1G ports, four fixed 1G SFP uplinks and 350W PWR-C1-350WAC-P supply. A site that needs Network Advantage from day one orders C9300L-24T-4G-A, while an installed switch can be upgraded later with a C9300L-LIC= term (C9300L-24-E-A-3, -5 or -7), which cannot be added to the original switch order. PoE+ endpoints call for C9300L-24P-4G-E, with 505W of default available PoE on a 715W supply. Uplinks faster than 1G call for C9300L-24T-4X-E, with four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ ports and 128 Gbps standalone switching capacity against 56 Gbps.
Ordering Checklist
- Subscription: Order a 24-port Essentials term such as C9300L-DNA-E-24-5Y, or the Catalyst equivalent C9300L-DNX-E-24-5Y; terms run 3, 5 or 7 years. The configurator defaults to Advantage at 5 years, which does not match a Network Essentials switch.
- Second power supply: A second supply matching PWR-C1-350WAC-P is selected by default; choose C9300L-SPS-NONE to remove it. The configurator adds it unless removed, so the order may carry a supply the site does not want.
- Stack kit: C9300L-STACK-KIT is selected by default with a 50 cm cable; 1 m and 3 m cables are options. A stack needs a cable long enough to reach the neighbouring member, and fixed-uplink switches use the C9300L kit rather than the modular C9300 cables.
- Power cords: Two power cords ship, defaulting to North America; select the cord type for the destination country. The default cord will not match outlets outside North America.
