Description

The M2USB-16G is a 16GB M.2 USB storage module for Cisco Catalyst 8000 Edge Platforms. It gives the router local storage for SD-WAN logging and additional on-box data, which makes it a practical fit for branch and WAN edge deployments.

The module uses an M.2 form factor with a USB interface and offers 16GB of capacity. It is powered by the host chassis through the M.2 slot, so no separate power connection is needed. On the Catalyst 8300, the integrated flash is 8GB and is not upgradeable, so the M.2 module provides the additional storage on top of that.

This 16GB M.2 USB option is the default M.2 storage on Catalyst 8300 models. If more capacity is needed, the upgrade path includes the 32GB M2USB-32G, the 600GB SSD-M2SED-600G and the 2TB SSD-M2NVME-2T, the latter two being M.2 NVMe self-encrypted drives. The module itself carries no licence, while the host platform uses Cisco DNA subscription licensing.
