FAQs

Q: What network modules are compatible with the C9300-24P-E?
A: The C9300-24P-E supports C9300-NM series modules including C9300-NM-4G (4x 1G SFP), C9300-NM-8X (8x 10G SFP+), C9300-NM-2Q (2x 40G QSFP+), and C9300-NM-4M (4x Multigigabit). The switch ships without a network module by default; modules are purchased separately based on uplink requirements.

Q: Can the C9300-24P-E be stacked with other Catalyst 9300 models?
A: Yes, it supports StackWise-480 stacking with other C9300 and C9300X modular uplink models, allowing up to 8 switches in a single stack with 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth. Mixed stacking between C9300 and C9300X is supported. However, it cannot stack with C9300L fixed uplink models or Catalyst 3850/3650 series switches.

Q: What is included with the Network Essentials license?
A: The Network Essentials license includes foundational Layer 2 switching, basic Layer 3 static routing, OSPF for routed access, 802.1x authentication, MACsec encryption, Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA), and IPv6 First Hop Security. Advanced features like full Layer 3 routing protocols require upgrading to Network Advantage license.

Q: Does this switch support PoE+ power for Wi-Fi 6 access points?
A: Yes, all 24 ports support PoE+ (802.3at) delivering up to 30W per port with a total power budget of 445W. The switch also supports Persistent PoE to keep devices powered during switch reboots, making it ideal for Wi-Fi 6 APs, IP cameras, and VoIP phones.

Q: Can I add redundant power supplies to the C9300-24P-E?
A: Yes, the switch supports hot-swappable secondary power supplies for N+1 redundancy. It is also compatible with Cisco StackPower and StackPower+ technology, allowing power sharing across stacked switches for enhanced resilience and flexibility in power allocation.
