What ports does C9300X-24HX-E offer?

C9300X-24HX-E offers 24 10G multigigabit copper ports supporting 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M speeds, plus Cisco UPOE+ and modular uplinks.

Is C9300X-24HX-E made for Wi-Fi 6E access points?

C9300X-24HX-E is a strong match for dense Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E access layers because every downlink can provide mGig speed and 90W Cisco UPOE+ power.

How is C9300X-24HX-E different from C9300X-24HX-A?

C9300X-24HX-E and C9300X-24HX-A share the same 24-port mGig UPOE+ hardware; the E suffix identifies Network Essentials licensing.

What PoE budget detail matters on C9300X-24HX-E?

C9300X-24HX-E ships in the 1100W AC power-supply class, so high-density UPOE+ designs need endpoint wattage totals, redundant supply choices, and StackPower planning.

Can C9300X-24HX-E use 100G uplinks?

C9300X-24HX-E uses C9300X modular uplinks, allowing designs to add higher-speed uplink modules such as 40G or 100G where the access layer needs faster aggregation.

What stacking behavior matters for C9300X-24HX-E?

C9300X-24HX-E supports StackWise-1T with C9300X members, while mixed modular Catalyst 9300 stacks can change effective stack bandwidth and operational assumptions.

Where does C9300X-24HX-E fit against C9300X-48HXN-E?

C9300X-24HX-E fits sites needing 24 full 10G mGig UPOE+ copper ports instead of the 48HXN layout with 40 lower-speed mGig and 8 10G mGig ports.

What cable plant check matters for C9300X-24HX-E?

C9300X-24HX-E deployments need copper cabling checked for the intended 2.5G, 5G, or 10G speeds before access points, cameras, or smart-building endpoints are connected.

C9300X-24HX-E Description

C9300X-24HX-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9300X stackable access switch for high-density campus edge deployments that need 24 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G multigigabit copper ports with Cisco UPOE+ and Network Essentials. It uses the C9300X modular uplink architecture, ships with a PWR-C1-1100WAC-P default power supply, provides a 735W default PoE budget, and supports StackWise-1T with StackPower+ for stacked access designs where multigigabit endpoint density, power delivery, and modular uplink choice matter.

Key Features

Network Essentials C9300X-24HX order line

The `-E` suffix maps the C9300X-24HX hardware to Network Essentials, while the corresponding `-A` order line changes the same hardware family to Network Advantage.

10G copper on every access port

Each access port on the C9300X-24HX hardware can be planned as a 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, or 10G multigigabit copper connection.

UPOE+ power class

Cisco lists the model as a UPOE+ switch, and the 24-port UPOE+ planning table ties IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 90W operation to specific power-supply combinations.

C9300X modular uplink path

The switch uses the C9300X network-module family, so C9300X-NM uplinks must be selected instead of C9300 network modules.

StackWise-1T access stack member

The C9300X-24HX hardware supports StackWise-1T, which keeps stacking cable selection separate from older StackWise-480 Catalyst 9300 orders.

Cisco IOS XE 17.9.1 baseline

Cisco release notes list C9300X-24HX-E with Cisco IOS XE Cupertino 17.9.1 as the introductory release.

Application Scenarios

Wi-Fi 6E access closet with 10G copper

C9300X-24HX-E fits a wiring closet where 24 multigigabit copper access links need 10G capability and UPOE+ power while the software tier remains Network Essentials.

Essentials-tier Catalyst 9300X stack expansion

The SKU is appropriate when the stack design standardizes on C9300X hardware, StackWise-1T, StackPower+, and Network Essentials rather than the Advantage license suffix.

High-power endpoint refresh

Use the model for access designs that must reserve UPOE+ power planning for devices such as access points, displays, cameras, or building endpoints, while still checking the actual power supply combination before the order is released.

C9300X-24HX-E vs C9300X-24HX-A is a license-tier comparison: both rows keep the same 24-port 10G mGig UPOE+ hardware profile, but the current SKU is Network Essentials.
In a C9300X-24HX-E vs C9300X-48HX-E comparison, the difference is access density because the current SKU has 24 copper UPOE+ ports and C9300X-48HX-E has 48 copper UPOE+ ports.
C9300X-24HX-E vs C9300X-24Y-E is a media and power comparison: the current SKU is a 10G mGig copper UPOE+ model, while C9300X-24Y-E is a 25G SFP28 fiber model with no PoE budget.
For buyers comparing which model to choose, C9300X-24HX-E should stay tied to 24-port copper mGig UPOE+ access and Network Essentials.

Selection Guide

1. Choose it for 24-port 10G mGig copper access

Select C9300X-24HX-E when the BOM calls for 24 Catalyst 9300X copper ports with 10G multigigabit capability and UPOE+ power.

2. Change suffix for Network Advantage

Move to C9300X-24HX-A only when the same C9300X-24HX hardware must be ordered with Network Advantage instead of Network Essentials.

3. Increase port count with the C9300X-48HX line

Use C9300X-48HX-E when the design requires 48 10G mGig UPOE+ access ports under Network Essentials instead of 24 ports.

4. Keep fiber access separate

Select C9300X-24Y-E only when the access requirement is 25G/10G/1G SFP28 fiber and the order does not need a PoE budget.

PoE Power Planning

Planning Item	Cisco Confirmed Value	Order Impact
Default PoE budget	C9300X-24HX is listed with 735W available PoE using PWR-C1-1100WAC-P	Check powered-device draw before assuming the default supply is enough
Higher PoE budget options	The data sheet lists 1085W with a 350W secondary supply, 1450W with a 715W secondary supply, 1835W with an 1100W secondary supply, and 2160W with a 1900W secondary supply	Add the secondary supply that matches the endpoint plan and redundancy requirement
90W UPOE+ planning	Cisco lists IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 90W operation on 21 ports for 24-port UPOE+ models	Prevents assuming that all 24 ports can deliver 90W at the same time
Power-stack design	C9300X-24HX supports StackPower+	Include StackPower+ cabling only where the access stack design uses shared power

Ordering Checklist

Check Item	What to Confirm	Why It Matters
Exact hardware SKU	C9300X-24HX-E on the switch line	Prevents substitution with C9300X-24HX-A, C9300X-48HX-E, or C9300X-24Y-E
Access-port profile	24 ports of 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G multigigabit copper with UPOE+	Keeps AP, endpoint, and cabling requirements aligned to the C9300X-24HX hardware
License and subscription	Network Essentials plus the correct 24-port Essentials term subscription	Keeps the hardware suffix and software entitlement tier aligned
Uplink module	C9300X-NM-2C default selection, another supported C9300X-NM option, or no-module selection	Avoids mixing C9300X switch orders with C9300 network modules
PoE supply set	Default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, secondary supply choice, and 90W endpoint count	Matches the powered-device plan to Cisco-listed PoE values
Stack accessories	StackWise-1T cable length and StackPower+ cable choice	Prevents accessory mismatch with older Catalyst 9300 stacking orders
