C9300L-24T-4X-E Description

The C9300L-24T-4X-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink stackable access switch for wiring closets that connect data-only devices and need 10G uplinks. The switch has 24 Gigabit copper ports, four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks and 128 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 BGP, VXLAN and MPLS are outside the license.

Key Features

24 Data-Only Gigabit Ports

The 24 10/100/1000 copper ports carry data only, with no PoE output, so they suit desktops, printers and devices powered locally.

Fixed 10G/1G SFP+ Uplinks

Four SFP+ ports are built into the chassis and run at 10G or 1G. The uplink speed is part of the hardware and does not depend on a network module.

128 Gbps Switching Capacity

Standalone switching capacity is 128 Gbps and forwarding reaches 95.23 Mpps, enough to carry the 24 Gigabit ports toward the uplinks at line rate.

Network Essentials Feature Set

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.

Stack Compatibility And Limits

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.

Dual Power Supply Slots

The 350W AC supply is the default, and the chassis has two internal supply slots. A second 350W, 715W or 1100W supply can fill the second slot, and the configurator selects one matching the first by default (C9300L-SPS-NONE removes it). There is no PoE output to budget for.

Application Scenarios

Wiring Closet With 10G Uplink

In a closet that serves desktops, printers and locally powered devices, the switch sends traffic to the distribution layer over 10G SFP+ uplinks.

Layer 2 Access Edge

A building that keeps routing in the core can run the switch as a Layer 2 access device with VLANs, 802.1X and QoS, using the Network Essentials license.

Stacked Access For A Large Floor

A large floor that needs more ports than one closet switch provides can stack the switch with other Catalyst 9300L members at the same license level.

C9300L-24T-4X-E is the Network Essentials version of C9300L-24T-4X-A, with 24 data-only 1G ports, four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks and the 350W PWR-C1-350WAC-P supply, so it fits closets with no powered devices. PoE+ endpoints call for C9300L-24P-4G-E, which has 505W of default available PoE on a 715W supply but only four 1G SFP uplinks and 56 Gbps standalone switching capacity against 128 Gbps. Needing more than 24 ports at the same uplink and license points to C9300L-48T-4X-E. A site that needs Network Advantage from day one orders C9300L-24T-4X-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.

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.

Questions & Answers

  • Can C9300L-24T-4X-E be stacked?

    Yes, C9300L-24T-4X-E stacks with up to eight Catalyst 9300L or 9300LM fixed-uplink switches over StackWise-320. Members must share the same license level, and modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 and Catalyst 3850 or 3650 switches cannot join the stack.

  • What does Network Essentials on C9300L-24T-4X-E include?

    Network Essentials on C9300L-24T-4X-E covers Layer 2 switching, 802.1X, MACsec-128, QoS and routed access with RIP, EIGRP stub and OSPF up to 1,000 routes. BGP, VXLAN and MPLS are outside the license. Subscription terms run 3, 5 or 7 years.

  • Does C9300L-24T-4X-E support Graceful Insertion and Removal?

    No. GIR belongs to Network Advantage, which adds NSF, GIR and xFSU high availability, and C9300L-24T-4X-E ships with Network Essentials. GIR isolates a node from the IGPs and shuts down Layer 2 in order EGP, IGPs, then L2, using the set-overload-bit for no-downtime maintenance.

  • Is HSRP available on C9300L-24T-4X-E?

    No. HSRP is added by Network Advantage, together with BGP, EIGRP, IS-IS, unlimited OSPF routes and MACsec-256. C9300L-24T-4X-E on Network Essentials keeps OSPF up to 1,000 routes. NETCONF, RESTCONF, gRPC and ZTP automation are also Advantage items, so plan first-hop redundancy before choosing the tier.

  • Which EMC and regional certifications does C9300L-24T-4X-E carry?

    C9300L-24T-4X-E meets EN 55032 Class A, CISPR 32 Class A and ICES-003 Class A under 47 CFR Part 15. Catalyst 9300L SKUs add QCVN 118:2018/BTTTT and VCCI-CISPR 32 Class A. Safety certifications include UL 60950-1 and IEC 60950-1, and environmental compliance is RoHS 5.

  • Which stack kit cable options does C9300L-24T-4X-E offer?

    C9300L-24T-4X-E uses a stack kit with a 0.5 m cable by default, and 1 m and 3 m cables are options. C9300L-STACK-KIT uses STACK-T3 cables and C9300L-STACK-KIT2 uses STACK-T3A cables. Order the kit that matches the cables chosen for the rack layout, since the two cable families are not interchangeable.

  • How does altitude change the operating temperature of C9300L-24T-4X-E?

    C9300L-24T-4X-E operates from -5C to +45C at altitudes up to 1500 m. The ceiling narrows to +35C at 5000 m. Storage is rated -40C to +70C, and relative humidity is 5% to 90% non-condensing. Closets at high elevation need extra cooling margin.

  • Does C9300L-24T-4X-E support MACsec-256?

    No. MACsec-256 requires Network Advantage, and C9300L-24T-4X-E carries Network Essentials, which supports the 128-bit option. The series supports the 256-bit option only with the Advantage tier. Link encryption stays at 128 bits on this switch until its subscription tier is changed, so settle any 256-bit requirement before the order.

  • Is the 1900W AC supply an option for C9300L-24T-4X-E?

    No. The Catalyst 9300 datasheet lists the 350W AC, 715W AC, 715W DC and 1100W AC supplies for the fixed-uplink 9300L, and it does not list the 1900W AC unit for these models. Size the second supply for C9300L-24T-4X-E from those four options. Each switch takes two supplies with N+1 redundancy.
