Cisco C9200-NM-4G | Catalyst 9200 4-Port Gigabit Module, 1G SFP Uplinks

Q: Which Catalyst 9200 switches support the C9200-NM-4G module?
A: The C9200-NM-4G is compatible with all Catalyst 9200 modular switches (C9200 series) but is not supported on C9200L fixed models, C9200CX compact models, or the C9200-24PXG and C9200-48PXG multigigabit switches.

Q: Can I mix 1G and 10G network modules in the same switch?
A: Yes, the modular design of C9200 switches allows field-replaceable network modules, enabling non-disruptive migration from 1G to 10G uplinks. You can upgrade by swapping the C9200-NM-4G for a C9200-NM-4X (10G) module when ready.

Q: What types of SFP transceivers work with this module?
A: The C9200-NM-4G supports standard 1GbE SFP transceivers, including both multimode fiber (SR) and single-mode fiber (LX/LH) optics, allowing you to match your existing cabling infrastructure and distance requirements.

Q: Is this module hot-swappable?
A: Yes, the C9200-NM-4G is a hot-swappable, field-replaceable unit that can be installed or removed without powering down the switch, minimizing network downtime during maintenance or upgrades.

Q: What are typical use cases for this module?
A: Common deployments include campus wiring closet uplinks to distribution switches, branch office fiber backbones, retail point-of-sale networks, and environments requiring redundant uplink paths or fiber connectivity without the cost of 10G infrastructure.
