Cisco Catalyst 9300 Switch (C9300-24H-A)
Cisco positions the C9300-24H-A as a next-generation enterprise-class switch, designed for organizations seeking robust access layer performance, future-proof scalability, and simplified network management. The C9300-24H-A, a highlight among Cisco switches, delivers advanced Universal Power over Ethernet Plus (UPOE+) capability with 24 high-power ports that each supply up to 90W, providing superior support for today’s and tomorrow's IoT and mobility endpoints. Cisco's architectural strengths are reflected through the C9300-24H-A’s StackWise-480 technology, enabling up to 480Gbps stack bandwidth, and resilience via StackPower for flexible power pooling across multiple units. Businesses in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America benefit from stringent security standards, including Cisco IOS XE, MACsec-256, and versatile management through both CLI and graphical Meraki/Cisco DNA Center interfaces. Comprehensive Layer 2/3 routing, robust ACL/QoS support, and ample forwarding rates bring true enterprise capacity to the edge, while the superior switching capacity of 208Gbps ensures seamless handling of data-intensive applications.
