Description
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-24P-A is a high-performance enterprise access switch designed to support modern business networks with advanced security, automation, and scalability. It features 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports capable of delivering power and connectivity to IP phones, wireless access points, surveillance cameras, and IoT devices through a single Ethernet cable.
Powered by Cisco IOS XE and licensed with Network Advantage, the switch provides advanced Layer 3 routing protocols including OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, VRF-Lite, and policy-based routing. Its modular uplink architecture allows organizations to customize connectivity using 1G, 10G, 25G, or 40G uplink modules based on network requirements.
The integrated StackWise-480 technology enables up to eight switches to operate as a single logical unit with up to 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth, simplifying management while increasing resiliency. Additional enterprise features such as MACsec encryption, Secure Boot, Cisco Trust Anchor, Flexible NetFlow, and Cisco DNA Center integration make the C9300-24P-A an ideal solution for secure campus networks, branch offices, educational institutions, healthcare environments, and large enterprise deployments.
