PoE+ Access for Campus Wiring Closets
C9300-24P-A is a 24-port Gigabit PoE+ enterprise access switch with a modular uplink bay and Network Advantage licensing. The Layer 3 Catalyst 9300 modular uplink model uses 1G copper access ports for powered endpoints in a 1U rack chassis, while the uplink slot stays empty until a network module is specified on the order. The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series fits campus wiring closets that need stackable access switching with routing services rather than a fixed-uplink compact switch. C9300-24P-E keeps the same 24-port PoE+ hardware with Network Essentials instead of Network Advantage, so the license tier is the separating factor for routed and segmented access designs.
C9300-24P-A price for new stock is $2,409.75, a 63.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $6,567.00. C9300-24P-A refurb price is $1,180.03. C9300-24P-A is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details
208 Gbps switching capacity and 154.76 Mpps forwarding support the 24-port Gigabit access profile, with 688 Gbps switching capacity when stacked. 445W PoE budget ships with the default PWR-C1-715WAC-P supply, and the chassis reaches 720W when a second PWR-C1-715WAC-P is installed because 24 ports at 30W equals 720W. C9300-24P-A supports static routing, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, OSPFv3, BGPv6, PIM SM and SSM under Network Advantage. The platform carries 8 GB DRAM, 16 GB flash, 32000 MAC entries, 32000 IPv4 routes and 1000 SVIs. StackWise-480 stacks eight members with STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M or STACK-T1-3M cables, and same-license Catalyst 9300 members are required.
Ordering
C9300-24P-A can be ordered new sealed or certified refurbished, with the uplink module, stacking cables and any second PWR-C1-715WAC-P listed as separate line items. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested; managed units are firmware verified and wiped to factory default, with POST, every port link, PoE output under load, optics bay recognition, stack adapter negotiation, PSU status and fan status checked. Submit the PO with condition preference, accessory PIDs and required warranty term. ORM Systems accepts PO, supports Net-30 for government, provides RMA with advance replacement, and maintains UK, EU, US and MEA stock/RMA coverage.

C9300-24P-A Use Case
Access Closet Endpoint Handoff
C9300-24P-A sits in the access closet and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, printers, cameras, badge readers, and access points on 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Network teams assign VLANs, QoS markings, authentication policy, and PoE budgets at the edge, then forward northbound traffic through the selected Catalyst 9300 uplink module. The Network Advantage image supports routed access and segmentation when policy belongs near users. The result is a powered access layer with local control over endpoint identity, traffic class, and routing boundary.
Access to Distribution Handoff
The switch occupies the campus access tier and presents aggregated endpoint traffic to distribution through modular uplinks chosen for the upstream design. Engineers pair C9300-24P-A with a Catalyst 9300 network module, matching 1G, 10G, multigigabit, 25G, or 40G handoff requirements to the fiber plant and distribution ports. Trunks, routed links, or EtherChannel groups carry user, voice, wireless, and management networks northbound. The modular slot keeps access-port cabling stable during uplink refreshes. The result is a 24-port PoE+ edge that adapts uplink bandwidth without changing endpoint cabling.
Stacked Access Operations Block
Multiple compatible Catalyst 9300 switches form a StackWise-480 access block when a closet needs more powered ports under one management plane. C9300-24P-A contributes 24 PoE+ copper ports per member, while the stack presents unified configuration, shared uplink planning, and coordinated software maintenance to operations teams. Engineers standardize IOS XE releases, stack priorities, StackWise cables, redundant power, and uplink modules before adding members across repeated closet builds. The result is controlled access-layer growth with fewer standalone switch contexts to monitor and maintain.
Best For
Powered Access Refresh
A closet replacing 24-port Gigabit PoE access can standardize on 24 PoE+ ports with a 445W default budget. Size the endpoint draw against 24 x 30W, then add a second PWR-C1-715WAC-P if the purchase order must support the full 720W port rating.
Stack Expansion
An existing Catalyst 9300 stack can add another same-license modular uplink member when the stack design stays within eight members. Specify the required STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M or STACK-T1-3M cable length on the order, and keep C9300L fixed-uplink models out of that stack.
Routed Access Edge
A wiring closet that terminates routed VLANs can use Network Advantage for BGPv4, EIGRP, IS-ISv4, OSPFv3, BGPv6, PIM SM and SSM. Check the 32000 IPv4 route scale and 1000 SVI limit before the PO, especially where access switches carry local routing.
Not Suitable If
48-port access density
The chassis provides 24 1G PoE+ access ports; specify C9300-48P-A when one 1U switch must provide 48 1G PoE+ ports.
Fixed uplinks included
The uplink bay ships empty; specify C9300L-24P-4X-A when the order must include fixed 4x10G/1G SFP+ uplinks instead of a module.
UPOE endpoint power
The access ports are PoE+ rather than Cisco UPOE; specify C9300-24U-A when the endpoint requirement calls for the 24-port UPOE hardware class.
