Description
Cisco Catalyst C9300-24S Fiber Switch
Enterprise Fiber Aggregation | 24x 1G SFP Slots | 480-Gbps Stacking | Data-Only
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-24S is a specialized, stackable enterprise-grade fiber switch engineered for efficient access and distribution layer aggregation. Featuring 24 fixed downlink slots that support line-rate 1G SFP optics, this platform is optimized for aggregating downstream access switches, linking campus backbones, or connecting high-performance network equipment over extended fiber runs. Built on the proven UADP 2.0 architecture, it combines high-density fiber flexibility with resilient Layer 3 routing capabilities, advanced investment protection, and multi-layer edge-to-cloud security.
Key Technical Features
* Dedicated 1G Fiber Density
Equipped with 24 fixed SFP ports accepting various 1G transceivers to support flexible, long-distance multi-mode or single-mode fiber links.
* Cisco StackWise-480
Supports up to 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth, enabling a resilient, single-logical-device architecture across up to 8 switches simultaneously.
* Flexible Modular Uplinks
Features a modular uplink slot accepting optional 1G, 10G, 25G, or 40G network modules to seamlessly scale your backbone connections.
* StackPower Resiliency
Leverage Cisco StackPower to pool and share power budgets across your local switch stack, reinforcing protection against sudden PSU hardware failure.
* Advanced Perimeter Security
Utilizes Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA), AES-256 MACsec encryption, and TrustSec architectures to defend localized enterprise traffic lanes.
* Container Application Hosting
An onboard x86 CPU structure with 8GB RAM allows engineering teams to host lightweight native monitoring, management, or security containers.
