C9300-24H-A delivers Cisco UPOE+ power through 24 Gigabit Ethernet copper access ports, with Layer 3 capabilities enabled by Network Advantage. The rack-mount 1U chassis belongs to the Catalyst 9300 series within the Catalyst 9000 family. Its modular uplink architecture uses a separately ordered network module rather than fixed uplink ports, allowing the uplink configuration to be selected independently of the access connections. Cisco UPOE+ supports endpoints requiring as much as 90W per port, subject to the available shared power allocation. The closest power-class sibling, C9300-24U-A, provides 60W Cisco UPOE instead. Neither the higher power class nor the license suffix changes the native Gigabit speed of this model's copper downlinks.
C9300-24H-A price for new stock is $6,720.00, a 22.2% saving from the Cisco list price of $8,640.00. C9300-24H-A refurb price is $3,622.50. C9300-24H-A is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

208 Gbps switching capacity and 154.76 Mpps forwarding establish the standalone traffic envelope; 688 Gbps switching capacity applies with stacking. 830W of available PoE power with the default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P must be allocated across connected endpoints rather than treated as a full-power allowance for every port. BGP, OSPF, EIGRP and IS-IS support routed access under Network Advantage. The IPv4 capacity totals 32000 entries, including 24000 direct routes and 8000 indirect routes; the indirect subset is not the overall limit. C9300-24H-A uses 8 GB of DRAM, 16 GB of flash and a 16 MB packet buffer for control-plane operation, local storage and traffic buffering respectively. Cisco UADP 2.0 provides the forwarding silicon, while three FAN-T2= fan modules provide active cooling. The switch does not provide hardware-based IPsec. 1041.4W measured input consumption applies to a fully PoE-loaded 115V configuration without an uplink module, so electrical sizing must distinguish that operating condition from traffic-only consumption.
Specify C9300-24H-A in new sealed or certified refurbished condition and identify the required order configuration before releasing the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, PoE output under load on every powered port, module bay recognition, stack adapter negotiation, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty and certified refurbished units up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply. PO orders are accepted, with Net-30 for government; enterprise and volume orders should state quantity and condition explicitly.

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.
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.
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.
A replacement project involving powered devices that must remain energized during switch reloads warrants checking restart behavior before selecting hardware. Perpetual PoE maintains endpoint power during a reload, while Fast PoE restores delivery without waiting for the operating system to finish loading. Specify the required restart behavior in the acceptance plan.
An access refresh that moves gateway interfaces onto the switch needs an interface inventory before the purchase order is finalized. The series supports 1000 switched virtual interfaces. Count existing interfaces, reserved interfaces and planned additions separately, then check the proposed configuration against that interface ceiling before specifying the equipment quantity.
An organization purchasing replacement inventory across several operating regions needs the fulfillment and replacement arrangements settled alongside the hardware condition. ORM Systems provides regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US and MEA, with advance replacement. Identify the receiving region and required replacement arrangement on the purchase order.
Multigigabit speeds on copper access ports
C9300-24H-A copper access ports stop at 1GbE. C9300X-24HX-A provides 24 Multigigabit UPOE+ access ports reaching 10GbE while retaining the Network Advantage tier.
100G uplinks from the access switch
C9300-24H-A permits uplink modules reaching 40G, not 100G. Catalyst 9300X accepts C9300X-NM-2C for two 100G uplinks, requiring a different switch chassis.

C9300-24H-A identifies a Catalyst 9300 switch: C9300 is the platform prefix, 24 is the copper access-port count, H denotes UPOE+, and A selects Network Advantage. The configuration uses Gigabit Ethernet downlinks and modular uplinks; no fixed-uplink speed code appears in this part number.
C9300-24H-A is managed through the CLI over a local RJ-45 or USB console, remote SSH, or the embedded WebUI. Cisco Catalyst Center provides centralized management with the appropriate subscription. Local configuration does not require deploying Cisco Catalyst Center, so centralized management is a separate procurement decision.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300. C9300-24H-A therefore has no announced hardware retirement milestone. Software release retirements are separate from switch hardware lifecycle; select the intended software release and the required support coverage when preparing the purchase order.
ORM Systems offers C9300-24H-A new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended coverage for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage for original owners is limited to five years after discontinuance.
C9300-24H-A includes perpetual Network Advantage. Cisco DNA Advantage and Cisco Catalyst Advantage subscriptions have a three-year minimum; Cisco Networking Subscription offers Cisco Switching Essentials and Cisco Switching Advantage with a 36-month minimum. A Smart Account is required, and legacy add-on expiration does not expire the perpetual network license.
C9300-24H-A provides a shared 830W PoE allowance with one default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, with UPOE+ supporting 90W per port. Two PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supplies raise the allowance to 1930W. That remains below 2160W for every access port at maximum output simultaneously, so endpoint allocation must be checked before ordering.
C9300-24H-A accepts C9300-NM-4G, C9300-NM-4M, C9300-NM-8X, C9300-NM-2Y and C9300-NM-2Q. Fiber choices provide four 1G, eight 10G/1G, two 25G/10G/1G or two 40G connections respectively. The base model has no installed network module, and optics require separate selection; C9300X network modules are not compatible with this chassis.
C9300-24H-A supports eight members through StackWise-480, using STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M or STACK-T1-3M cables. Stack members must use the same license level. C9300L and C9300LM belong to a different data-stacking group, while higher-scale C9300 models require like higher-scale partners; check each proposed member before adding equipment.
Yes, C9300-24H-A supports Layer 3 routing with BGP, OSPF, EIGRP and IS-IS under Network Advantage. The IPv4 total is 32000 entries, comprising 24000 direct routes and 8000 indirect routes. The 1000-route OSPF restriction belongs to Network Essentials, not the Network Advantage tier supplied with this model.
C9300-24H-A supports 90W UPOE+ per port, whereas C9300-24U-A supports 60W UPOE per port. Both are 24-port Gigabit models with Network Advantage and modular uplinks. Select the H model for endpoints requiring the higher power class; select the U model where endpoint requirements remain within 60W.
C9300-24H-A includes Network Advantage, while C9300-24H-E includes Network Essentials on the same 24-port UPOE+ hardware. Advantage enables advanced routing such as BGP and IS-IS; Essentials includes restricted routed-access capabilities. Choose the A model for those advanced protocols and the E model when the Essentials feature set covers the configuration.
C9300-48H-A provides 48 Gigabit UPOE+ access ports, compared with 24 on C9300-24H-A. Both carry Network Advantage and use modular uplinks. The 24-port model suits an inventory requiring fewer copper connections; the 48-port model suits higher connection density, with endpoint power allocation checked separately rather than inferred from port count.
