Cisco Catalyst 9300-24P-E Essentials License 24-Port PoE+ Switch
Cisco C9300-24P-E Access Enterprise Switch
The Cisco Catalyst 9300-24P-E is a 1 RU fixed-access enterprise switch engineered for U.S. campus and branch deployments—from powering PoE+ devices in financial trading floors to supporting Wi-Fi 6 access points in California tech campuses.
As part of the Catalyst 9300 family with the Network Essentials license, it offers 24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000 RJ-45 PoE+ downlinks, one modular uplink slot for flexible 1 GbE/10 GbE/40 GbE expansion, and an x86 CPU with Cisco’s UADP 2.0 ASIC under Cisco IOS XE.
Ideal for converged voice, video, and IoT deployments, it delivers robust security, programmability, and high-availability stacking—all manageable via Cisco DNA Center or Meraki Dashboard.
