Managed L2/L3 Netwerk-switch Cisco C9300-24S-E Grijs

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series C9300-24S-E is a managed L2/L3 network switch offering 24 SFP ports in a grey chassis. Built as a stackable enterprise switching platform, it delivers high-density stacking bandwidth (up to 480 Gbps), flexible uplink options and support for advanced campus architectures such as Software-Defined Access (SD-Access). The switch is optimized for modern wireless deployments, supports high-density Wi‑Fi 6 and 802.11ac Wave2, and includes an x86 CPU architecture with increased memory to host containers and third-party applications.

Advantages

The C9300-24S-E provides resilient stackable operation with Cisco StackWise technology and nonstop forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO). It supports high-density PoE options including PoE+, Cisco UPOE and UPOE+ on compatible models, and is based on the UADP 2.0 silicon architecture for increased scale and throughput. Cisco IOS XE delivers a modern, programmable OS with advanced security and IoT convergence features suitable for enterprise environments.

Suitable for

• Enterprise campus distribution and core switching
• High-density SFP fiber aggregation and uplinks
• Environments requiring stackable resiliency and nonstop forwarding
• Deployments that need programmability, third‑party apps or container hosting

How to use

Install the C9300-24S-E in a standard 19-inch rack and connect SFP transceivers suitable for your fiber links. Configure stacking and uplink interfaces through Cisco IOS XE, enable StackWise and NSF/SSO if deploying a stack, and apply appropriate VLAN, routing and security policies for your network. For hosting containers or third‑party applications, follow Cisco’s IOS XE app/container deployment guidelines and allocate resources according to workload requirements.

Recommendations

Use compatible Cisco SFP modules and follow Cisco guidelines for stacking and power configurations. Regularly update IOS XE to receive security fixes and feature updates; monitor resource usage when running third‑party apps or containers to maintain switching performance.
