C9300X-24Y-E Description

C9300X-24Y-E
  Cisco Catalyst C9300X-24Y-E is a high-density, data-only fiber access switch engineered for campus and data-center edge environments that demand ultra-high throughput with flexible uplink options. It provides 24 multi-rate SFP28 ports capable of 25 Gbps, 10 Gbps, or 1 Gbps, allowing seamless migration from 10 GbE to 25 GbE as network needs evolve. There are four modular uplink slots, supporting any combination of C9300X network modules—such as the NM-8Y (8×25 G/10 G/1 G SFP), NM-2C (2×100 G/40 G QSFP), or NM-4C (4×100 G/40 G QSFP)—for tailored aggregation or core connectivity without forklift upgrades.Powered by a single 715 W AC supply (PWR-C1-715WAC-P), the switch consumes approximately 115 VA at idle while delivering nonblocking, line-rate performance via the UADP 2.0Sec ASIC. In standalone mode, it delivers 2 Tbps of switching capacity (2,000 Gbps) and 1,488 Mpps forwarding; when stacked via StackWise-1T (up to eight members), capacity scales to 3 Tbps (3,000 Gbps) and forwarding to 2,232 Mpps.
