C8300-2N2S-4T2X Overview
C8300-2N2S-4T2X is the 2RU 10G WAN model in the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Series Edge Platforms family, built as a modular enterprise branch router for SD-WAN and routed WAN edge roles. The chassis provides 2 Service Module slots, 2 Network Interface Module slots, and 1 Pluggable Interface Module slot, with no expansion modules implied as part of the base SKU. Its embedded Layer 3 Ethernet layout combines 2 x 10G SFP+ ports with 4 x 1G RJ-45 ports for wired WAN or LAN handoffs. The platform runs Cisco IOS XE or Catalyst SD-WAN software with Cisco DNA subscription licensing and ships as a rack-mount 2RU appliance for medium and large branch deployments. C8300-2N2S-6T differs by using 6 x 1G embedded ports instead of 2 x 10G SFP+ and 4 x 1G ports.
19.7 Gbps of IPv4 forwarding throughput carries high-speed routed traffic in autonomous mode with 1400-byte packets. 18.9 Gbps of IPsec throughput applies under the same 1400-byte condition, while 9.3 Gbps covers IMIX IPsec traffic and 18.8 Gbps covers SD-WAN IPsec throughput at 1400 bytes. 2 x 10G SFP+ ports terminate higher-speed fiber WAN links, and 4 x 1G RJ-45 ports support additional Layer 3 Ethernet connections. Routing support includes OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, IS-IS, RIP, LISP, static routing, IPv6, MPLS, HSRP, IPsec, and Layer 2 or Layer 3 VPN services. C8300-2N2S-4T2X carries 8 GB default DRAM and 16 GB default M.2 storage, with memory and storage upgrade options available in the Catalyst 8300 accessory portfolio. Remote operations use CLI, SNMP, Netconf over SSH, Catalyst SD-WAN Manager, Cisco DNA Center, and Cisco Security Cloud Control for supported routing and security workflows.
The router sits at the branch WAN edge, where it terminates provider circuits, internet handoffs, SD-WAN overlay links, VPN traffic, and modular expansion for additional routed, switched, voice, or cellular services. Its 2RU rack footprint uses 3.5 in. x 17.25 in. x 18.52 in. chassis space, with dual power supplies shipped by default and AC or DC power supply options for different site requirements. Cisco DNA Software licensing is part of the platform purchasing model, so software entitlement should be matched to the intended routing, SD-WAN, and security features. C8300-2N2S-4T2X is available from ORM Systems in new and certified refurbished condition. Refurbished units receive chassis, slot, boot, power supply, and interface checks before dispatch. Request current pricing for a single router, or source volume quantities with compatible modules, optics, licensing guidance, and enterprise procurement support from ORM Systems.
C8300-2N2S-4T2X price is $7,741.00, a 65.5% saving from the Cisco list price of $22,417.00. C8300-2N2S-4T2X is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

C8300-2N2S-4T2X Use Case
Branch WAN Edge Handoff
C8300-2N2S-4T2X sits at the branch WAN edge and terminates high-speed service-provider handoffs through 2 x 10G SFP+ embedded ports and 4 x 1G RJ-45 ports. Engineers map underlay circuits, routed links, VRFs, QoS policies, and IPsec tunnels onto the embedded Layer 3 interfaces, then reserve the NIM and SM slots for additional transport or service modules. The router anchors branch-to-cloud and branch-to-data-center paths with a 2RU chassis that resolves 10G WAN handoff and modular growth requirements.
SD-WAN Overlay Control Point
The router operates as a Catalyst SD-WAN edge node where centralized policies steer application traffic across internet, private WAN, and encrypted overlay paths. C8300-2N2S-4T2X uses Cisco IOS XE SD-WAN software, 12G IP throughput, 5G SD-WAN throughput, and dual power supplies to support controlled branch connectivity. Engineers define VPN segmentation, transport preference, security policy, and failover behavior through Catalyst SD-WAN Manager. The result is a managed WAN edge with predictable policy enforcement across high-speed branch transports.
Modular Services Expansion Point
The 2RU chassis occupies the network edge where routing, security, switching, voice, or cellular expansion must remain in one platform. Engineers use the 2 SM slots, 2 NIM slots, and 1 PIM slot to add approved Cisco modules while preserving the embedded 10G SFP+ WAN ports for upstream transport. C8300-2N2S-4T2X separates base WAN connectivity from service expansion, which simplifies refresh planning. The network gains a single branch platform for modular services without consuming extra rack positions for separate appliances.
