Description

The Cisco Catalyst 9300-24UX-A is a 24-port switch designed to provide flexible connectivity and high performance for enterprise networks. It features universal ports that can support both Gigabit Ethernet (1G) and multi-rate SFP+ (1G/10G), providing fiber-optic and copper connectivity options. With its Layer 3 routing capabilities, advanced security features, and integration with Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA), the C9300-24UX-A is an ideal choice for networks that need high performance, scalability, and simplicity.

Key Features:

• 24 Universal Ports (1G/10G SFP+):

  • The C9300-24UX-A includes 24 universal ports that support 1G Ethernet and multi-rate SFP+ (1G/10G) for uplinks or network connections. The flexibility of supporting both copper and fiber connections ensures the switch can adapt to a variety of network environments.

  • The SFP+ ports are ideal for fiber-optic connectivity, offering high-speed uplinks and long-distance connections between devices or network segments.

• Layer 3 Routing:

  • The C9300-24UX-A supports full Layer 3 routing functionality, including static routing, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP. This makes it well-suited for more complex networks that require routing between different subnets or need to manage traffic across multiple network layers.

• Stacking Support:

  • The C9300-24UX-A supports stacking of up to 8 switches, providing a high level of scalability and redundancy. StackWise technology offers up to 480 Gbps of stack bandwidth, making it ideal for larger network environments where multiple switches need to be managed as a single unit.

  • Stacking also ensures that if one switch fails, the network will continue to function, providing high availability for mission-critical systems.

• Energy Efficient:

  • The switch is designed to be energy efficient with features such as IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), which reduces power consumption during periods of low traffic.

  • Cisco EnergyWise is supported, enabling IT teams to monitor and manage energy usage across the network, optimizing power consumption in a large-scale environment.

• Advanced Security:

  • The C9300-24UX-A comes with a comprehensive suite of security features:

    • 802.1X Authentication: Ensures that only authorized devices can access the network.

    • Cisco TrustSec: Provides policy-based security and segmentation across the network.

    • MACsec Encryption: Secures communication between devices and switches to prevent unauthorized access or tampering.

    • Advanced Threat Detection: Integrated security mechanisms protect against attacks like Denial of Service (DoS), ensuring your network is safe.

• Cisco DNA Ready:

  • The C9300-24UX-A integrates seamlessly with Cisco Digital Network Architecture (DNA), allowing for advanced network automation, real-time analytics, and policy enforcement.

  • With Cisco DNA Center, network management is simplified through automation, monitoring, and optimization, resulting in increased operational efficiency and reduced manual tasks.
