C9300-24H-A Overview

C9300-24H-A is a managed Layer 3 Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series access switch built for high-power copper endpoint aggregation. It provides 24 fixed 1G/100M RJ-45 access ports and an empty modular uplink bay; compatible Catalyst 9300 modules support SFP, SFP+, SFP28, QSFP, and multigigabit RJ-45 uplink options, with the module sold separately. Cisco UPOE+ supplies 90W-class PoE++ capability for powered endpoints from a 1U rack-mount platform. The switch runs the Network Advantage image within the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. C9300-24H-E is the closest sibling by hardware, with Network Essentials instead of Network Advantage.

208 Gbps switching capacity delivers wire-speed access switching for the fixed 24-port Gigabit Ethernet copper edge. 154.76 Mpps forwarding rate supports campus access traffic at 64-byte IPv4 packet sizes, while 688 Gbps stacked switching capacity applies when the platform operates in a StackWise-480 stack. 830W PoE budget allocates shared endpoint power across the 24 UPOE+ ports, so high-draw devices are planned against the available power envelope. BGP, EIGRP, IS-IS and OSPF are included in the Network Advantage feature set for advanced routed access and segmentation designs. C9300-24H-A uses 8 GB DRAM, 16 GB flash, and a 32,000-entry MAC table for enterprise access switching scale.

In the enterprise access tier, this switch terminates copper runs from wireless access points, IP phones, cameras, signage, thin clients, and other powered Ethernet devices before handing traffic to distribution through the selected uplink module. StackWise-480 groups compatible Catalyst 9300 switches under one logical control plane, and the 1U chassis fits standard rack deployments. ORM Systems supplies C9300-24H-A new and certified refurbished for access-layer refreshes, replacements, and expansion projects. Refurbished units are tested for boot health, PoE output, port operation, fan status, power supply condition, and stack interfaces before dispatch.

C9300-24H-A Use Case

Access Layer High-Power Endpoint Handoff

C9300-24H-A sits in a wiring closet and terminates copper runs from wireless access points, IP phones, cameras, signage, thin clients, and other powered endpoints on 24 1G UPOE+ access ports. Engineers assign VLANs, QoS markings, authentication policy, and PoE budgets at the closet edge, then pass northbound traffic through the selected Catalyst 9300 uplink module. The Network Advantage image places routed access and segmentation functions near the endpoint edge. The network gains controlled 90W-class power delivery with policy enforcement at the access layer.

Access to Distribution Uplink Handoff

The switch occupies the access layer and presents aggregated 1G endpoint traffic to distribution switches through a separately ordered Catalyst 9300 network module. Engineers select 1G SFP, 10G SFP+, 25G SFP28, 40G QSFP+, or multigigabit copper uplinks to match the upstream design, then configure trunks, routed links, or EtherChannel. C9300-24H-A keeps high-power copper endpoint access separate from uplink media selection, which matters during staged closet refreshes. The network gains a cleaner closet-to-distribution handoff without replacing endpoint cabling during uplink migrations.

Stacked Closet Operations Point

Several compatible Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink switches form a StackWise-480 access block when a closet needs unified management and shared uplink planning. C9300-24H-A contributes 24 1G UPOE+ ports per member, while StackPower planning aligns power supplies with high-power endpoint demand across the stack. Engineers standardize IOS XE images, stack cables, power budgets, access policies, and uplink modules before adding members across multiple access closets. The operations team gains one managed switch plane for repeated closet builds, consistent port policy, and controlled access-layer expansion.
