Product Overview
The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Deep Buffer 24-Port Managed Switch (C9300-24UXB-A) is purpose-built for enterprise-grade access layer networks requiring scalable and secure multilayer switching. It offers 24 multigigabit UPOE ports supporting up to 10GBase-T, delivering both power and bandwidth over a single connection—ideal for high-density deployments like Wi-Fi 6 access points, surveillance systems, and IoT devices. With a generous 560W PoE budget and hot-swappable power supplies, this model ensures high availability and minimal downtime.
Underpinned by Cisco's Network Advantage licensing, this switch includes advanced Layer 3 routing capabilities such as OSPF, PIM, and VRRP, along with Flexible NetFlow monitoring, ACL scalability, and policy-based routing. With a switching capacity of 640 Gbps (up to 1.12 Tbps with stacking) and a forwarding rate of up to 833.33 Mpps, it ensures strict performance standards under heavy workloads. Integrated Cisco StackWise-480 and StackPower technologies allow seamless scalability and power redundancy across the stack.
Security and automation are built-in, supporting protocols like 802.1X authentication, SNMP, and RESTCONF. Managed via Cisco IOS Universal, it’s designed for long-term reliability with a 64MB packet buffer, 64K MAC address table, and robust compliance to environmental standards—all in a compact 1U rack-mountable unit.
