C9404R Description
The Cisco Catalyst C9404R chassis delivers enterprise-grade, modular access switching in a 4-slot form factor. Built on the Catalyst 9000 family, the C9404R supports mission-critical security, IoT, mobility, and cloud services through up to 9 Tbps of fabric bandwidth, high-density IEEE 802.3bt PoE (60 W/90 W), redundant supervisors, and serviceable fan trays. Ideal for aggregation or access layers, it scales to 384 access ports (1–10 Gbps copper/fiber) and offers advanced resilience with dual supervisors (1+1), Cisco StackWise® Virtual, ISSU, NSF/SSO, and uplink redundancy.
