Description

The Catalyst 9500 40-port 10G SFP+ switch is a fixed 1RU core and aggregation switch from the Cisco Catalyst 9500 family. It suits enterprise campus core and aggregation roles, collapsed-core deployments and Software-Defined Access fabric border or control-plane nodes.

The chassis provides 40 x 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP/SFP+ ports on the UADP-based Catalyst 9500 platform. It runs Cisco IOS XE with StackWise Virtual support, and supports dual 1+1 redundant AC or DC power supplies with field-replaceable fan trays and front-to-back airflow. Out-of-band management is provided through RJ-45 and USB-mini type B ports. This SKU carries the perpetual Network Advantage licence tier, which is what separates it from the Network Essentials variant of the same hardware.

Where the model supports uplink modules, it works with the C9500-NM-8X (8x 1/10G SFP/SFP+) and C9500-NM-2Q (2x 40G QSFP+) network modules. Optics compatibility can be checked against the Cisco TMG Matrix.
