C9300X-24HX-A supplies 24 copper Multigigabit downlinks with Cisco UPOE+ in a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch. Each RJ-45 port supports 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps for connections to access points and powered endpoints. The Catalyst 9300X occupies one rack unit and belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. Its base uplink bay is empty: C9300X-NM-8M provides copper Multigigabit uplinks, C9300X-NM-8Y provides SFP28 uplinks, and C9300X-NM-2C provides 40G/100G uplinks. The otherwise matching C9300X-24HX-E carries Network Essentials, whereas this model includes Network Advantage. Optical transceivers are specified separately from the uplink module.
C9300X-24HX-A price for new stock is $9,999.15, a 37.5% saving from the Cisco list price of $15,988.00. C9300X-24HX-A refurb price is $7,049.70. C9300X-24HX-A is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

800 Gbps switching capacity defines standalone switching bandwidth for this configuration. 654.72 Mpps forwarding rate applies to 64-byte IPv4 packets, providing a packet-size-specific basis for comparison. 735W of shared PoE power is available with PWR-C1-1100WAC-P; adding a second PWR-C1-1100WAC-P increases the available budget to 1835W. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 support dynamic routing under the included network license. C9300X-24HX-A uses UADP 2.0sec forwarding silicon, with 16 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash for software operation and image storage. Its address resources accommodate 32000 MAC entries and 39000 total IPv4 routes, including directly connected and learned routes. Embedded WebUI supports browser-based configuration, while NETCONF and RESTCONF provide programmable management paths. Three FAN-T2= fans provide active cooling. The base configuration has no fixed optical uplink ports; those connections depend on the selected network module.
New sealed and certified refurbished C9300X-24HX-A units are offered; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port's rated-speed link, clean boot and PoE output under load on every powered port, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage is original-owner limited, with a five-year limit after discontinuance; ORM warranties are up to 3-year extended for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on both conditions; terms apply. Specify condition, quantity, required accessories and license entitlements on the purchase order. Enterprise and volume POs are accepted, with Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement.
| Key Specs | Key Spec Values |

Operating System | Cisco IOS XE |
License Tier | Network Advantage |
Port Configuration | 24 x Multigigabit UPOE+, modular uplink bay |
PoE Budget | 735W single PWR-C1-1100WAC-P / 1835W dual PWR-C1-1100WAC-P |
Stacking | StackWise-1T, eight members |

C9300X-24HX-A sits in the access closet and terminates copper runs from Wi-Fi 6E access points, workstations, cameras, displays, and other powered endpoints on 24 10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M RJ-45 ports. Engineers assign VLANs, QoS policies, authentication controls, and 90W UPOE+ budgets at the edge, then forward traffic northbound through the selected Catalyst 9300X uplink module. The Network Advantage image places routed access and segmentation policy at the wiring closet, which reduces oversubscription where high-speed endpoints concentrate and keeps endpoint policy close to the connected device.
Multiple C9300X-24HX-A switches form a StackWise-1T access block when one wiring closet needs more 10G multigigabit copper ports under a single control plane. Each member contributes 24 UPOE+ access ports and participates in common VLAN, routing, QoS, and uplink design across the stack. Engineers keep license levels aligned, add STACK-T1 cables, and size power supplies for endpoint draw and redundancy. The closet gains higher port density without splitting operations across separate switch management domains or separate uplink policy points per stack.
C9300X-24HX-A operates as a routed access boundary where endpoint VLANs terminate on SVIs and traffic moves toward distribution through routed links or EtherChannel on a chosen C9300X uplink module. Network Advantage supports the Layer 3 policy role, while Cisco IOS XE applies ACLs, QoS, telemetry, and authentication controls close to the 24 powered multigigabit ports. Engineers place segmentation, route summarization, and fault isolation at the access block, which reduces Layer 2 scope before traffic reaches the distribution layer in the access design.
When branch cabling is retained during a switch refresh, validate link length before ordering. Cat6 limits 10G copper links to 55 m, while Cat6A supports 100 m. Include the cable-category audit and required replacements in the purchase specification before the PO.
When separate endpoint networks require routed interfaces at access, size interface requirements before selecting the configuration. The chassis supports 1000 SVIs, and Network Advantage enables VRF segmentation. Define addressing, segmentation and interface counts in the staging specification, then confirm that the configuration fits before the PO.
When a switch order includes bench staging before site shipment, plan local console access rather than relying on the production network. The five-pin USB mini-Type B console takes precedence over the RJ-45 console. Specify the intended console connection and staging procedure before the PO.
Four 100G uplinks on one module
C9300X-24HX-A accepts C9300X-NM-2C with two 100G ports, not C9300X-NM-4C. C9300X-48HX-A supports C9300X-NM-4C but also increases copper access density to 48 ports.
Silent fanless operation
Three FAN-T2= fans provide active cooling, so C9300X-24HX-A is not fanless. Select fanless hardware when the installation specification prohibits fans or requires passive cooling.

C9300X-24HX-A identifies Catalyst 9300X hardware with 24 copper Multigigabit UPOE+ ports, modular uplinks and Network Advantage. C9300X names the hardware family, 24 gives the access-port count, HX identifies this powered Multigigabit configuration, and A selects Network Advantage. No separate fixed-uplink speed segment appears in this part number.
Catalyst 9300X supports CLI, embedded WebUI, Cisco Catalyst Center and supported Meraki dashboard configurations. Local CLI access uses RJ-45 or USB console connections, while NETCONF and RESTCONF support API-based configuration. Meraki cloud management requires the appropriate operating mode and entitlement; Catalyst Center is not mandatory for local operation.
C9300X-24HX-A provides a shared 735W PoE budget with one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, increasing to 1835W with two PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supplies. Individual UPOE+ ports support 90W, but 24 ports at 90W require 2160W. Size the supply configuration against aggregate endpoint demand rather than assuming every port can simultaneously deliver its maximum.
C9300X-24HX-A supports C9300X-NM-8M for eight Multigigabit copper uplinks, C9300X-NM-8Y for eight 25G/10G/1G uplinks, and C9300X-NM-2C for two 100G/40G uplinks. The base chassis has no installed uplink module. Order the required module and compatible optical transceivers separately; C9300X-NM-4C is not supported on this model.
StackWise-1T stacks eight Catalyst 9300X members with 1 Tbps stacking bandwidth when network-license levels match. STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M and STACK-T1-3M provide the supported cable-length choices. Mixed stacks with compatible Catalyst 9300 models operate at 480 Gbps instead; fixed-uplink models and higher-scale Catalyst 9300 models cannot join this stack.
Yes, C9300X-24HX-A includes Network Advantage with OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 routing support. Its IPv4 capacity totals 39000 routes, comprising 24000 direct and 15000 indirect routes. That total is distinct from the 1000-route OSPF limit associated with Network Essentials, so compare the required routing entitlement as well as hardware scale.
C9300X-24HX-A has two internal power-supply bays, but its base configuration includes one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P and leaves the second bay available. A second PWR-C1-1100WAC-P can be added during ordering or later. The configuration workflow preselects that second supply, so confirm the actual supply quantity on the quotation before issuing the purchase order.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300X. C9300X-24HX-A has no announced hardware end-of-sale or last-support milestone to attach to this order. Software-release retirement notices are separate from chassis lifecycle, so select a supported Cisco IOS XE release when planning the deployment and its maintenance schedule.
ORM offers C9300X-24HX-A new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime warranty applies to the original purchaser and is limited to five years after a discontinuance announcement.
C9300X-24HX-A supplies UPOE+ power on its copper access ports, whereas C9300X-48TX-A is data-only and provides no PoE output. Both include Network Advantage, but the data-only alternative also increases access-port count from 24 to 48. Choose the powered model for PoE endpoints or the larger data-only model for independently powered equipment.
C9300X-24HX-A includes Network Advantage, while C9300X-24HX-E includes Network Essentials on the same 24-port UPOE+ hardware configuration. Advantage adds advanced routing capabilities such as BGP and full EIGRP. The A model suits those routing requirements; the E model suits switching and routed-access requirements that remain within the Essentials feature set.
C9300X-48HX-A provides 48 Multigigabit UPOE+ access ports, compared with 24 on C9300X-24HX-A. Both retain modular uplinks and Network Advantage. Specify the 24-port model when that endpoint count is sufficient; select the 48-port model when the purchase requirement calls for greater copper access density in one chassis.
C9300X-24HX-A includes perpetual Network Advantage. Cisco DNA and Cisco Catalyst offer Essentials/Advantage subscriptions for 3, 5 or 7 years, with Advantage required for this new PID order. Cisco Networking Subscription offers Cisco Switching Essentials/Advantage with a 36-month minimum. Meraki Enterprise/Advanced starts at one year after migration. Expired DNA add-ons require deactivation and reload; Network Advantage remains perpetual.
