Cisco Catalyst 9300X Managed L3 Ethernet (100/1000/2500)

widely deployed switching platform. Catalyst 9300 Series switches form the foundational building block for Software-Defined Access (SD-Access), Cisco’s leading enterprise architecture. With up to 1TB, they offer the industry’s highest-density stacking bandwidth solution and the most flexible uplink architecture. The Catalyst 9300 Series is the first optimized platform for high-density Wi-Fi 6 and 802.11ac Wave 2, setting new maximums for network scale. These switches are also future-ready, featuring an x86 CPU architecture and increased memory, allowing them to host containers and run third-party applications and scripts natively within the switch.

The Catalyst 9300 Series is designed for Cisco StackWise technology, providing flexible deployment with support for nonstop forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO), ensuring the most resilient architecture in a stackable solution. The highly resilient and efficient power architecture features Cisco StackPower, delivering high-density Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), 60W Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE), and 90W Cisco UPOE+ ports. The switches are based on the Cisco Unified Access Data Plane 2.0 (UADP) architecture, which protects your investment while allowing for larger scale and higher throughput. Catalyst 9300X models utilize a new ASIC, UADP 2.5sec, which adds hardware support for Crypto, including IPSEC. A modern operating system, Cisco IOS XE with programmability, offers advanced security capabilities and Internet of Things (IoT) convergence.
