C9300X-24HX-E is a managed Layer 3 access switch for high-speed copper edge designs, built with 24 fixed 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G RJ-45 downlink ports and Cisco UPOE+ power delivery. The switch uses an empty modular uplink bay rather than fixed uplink ports, accepting C9300X-NM-8M 10G/mGig copper, C9300X-NM-8Y 25G/10G/1G SFP28, C9300X-NM-2C 100G/40G QSFP28, or C9300X-NM-4C 100G/40G QSFP28 network modules. That separation helps buyers match 10G, 25G, 40G, 100G, or extra copper uplinks to the upstream design without changing the access switch. Its 1U rack-mount chassis belongs to Cisco Catalyst 9300X, the higher-performance modular-uplink branch of the Catalyst 9300 family. The Network Essentials image places this SKU in the entry network stack while retaining Catalyst switching operations, local management, and routed-access scale. C9300X-48HX-E is the closest higher-density sibling, with 48 10G/mGig UPOE+ copper ports instead of this model's 24 ports.
800 Gbps switching capacity supports high-density multigigabit access traffic before uplink selection is added through the module bay. 1880 Gbps stacked switching capacity gives a StackWise-1T access block additional backplane capacity when multiple C9300X members operate together. 654.72 Mpps forwarding rate gives the platform wire-speed packet handling for IPv4 traffic at the documented 64-byte measurement point. 735W PoE budget with the default 1100WAC power supply lets network teams allocate power across access points, cameras, collaboration endpoints, and other powered edge devices. 39,000 IPv4 route scale and 19,500 IPv6 routing entries place the hardware in routed-access campus designs without treating it as a core chassis. StackPower+ support adds power-sharing design options across compatible members when the power architecture calls for stack-level resiliency during refresh planning. C9300X-24HX-E also carries 16 GB DRAM, 16 GB flash, a 32,000-entry MAC table, 16 MB packet buffer, USB console access, WebUI management, NETCONF, RESTCONF, gNMI, SNMP, syslog, and model-driven telemetry for Catalyst operating workflows.
At the access tier, C9300X-24HX-E aggregates Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E access points, high-speed workstations, surveillance devices, and building systems that need multigigabit copper and shared UPOE+ power. A StackWise-1T domain supports eight Catalyst 9300X members under one management plane, while the 1U form factor keeps each switch in standard rack space. ORM Systems supplies this switch new and certified refurbished, and refurbished units are tested for boot status, port negotiation, UPOE+ delivery, power supply health, fan status, and uplink-module recognition before dispatch. Request an ORM Systems quote with the required condition, C9300X-NM module, optics, stack cables, power leads, and warranty term. Enterprise and volume buyers receive bill-of-material alignment for multi-closet refreshes, staged rollouts, and spare-unit planning.

C9300X-24HX-E sits at the access layer and terminates copper runs from Wi-Fi access points, high-performance workstations, cameras, and collaboration endpoints on 24 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G UPOE+ ports. Engineers assign VLANs, 802.1X policy, QoS queues, and PoE limits close to the endpoint, then send northbound traffic through a selected C9300X-NM uplink module. The Network Essentials tier supports the standard access policy baseline for this role, while IOS XE keeps operations aligned with Catalyst 9000 tooling. The closet gains high-speed powered edge capacity without moving endpoint cabling to fiber.
Multiple C9300X-24HX-E switches form a StackWise-1T access block when one wiring closet needs more than 24 multigigabit UPOE+ ports under one management plane. Engineers align IOS XE releases, connect StackWise-1T and StackPower+ cabling, place SVIs or routed uplinks at the access boundary, and apply consistent ACL, QoS, and authentication templates across stack members. Each switch contributes 735W PoE budget with an 1100WAC supply and 800 Gbps standalone switching capacity. The network gains repeatable routed access growth with controlled power and port administration.
The switch occupies the access tier and hands aggregated endpoint traffic to distribution through the C9300X-NM module selected for the upstream design. Engineers install C9300X-NM-8Y for 25G/10G/1G SFP uplinks, C9300X-NM-2C or C9300X-NM-4C for 100G/40G QSFP uplinks, or C9300X-NM-8M for additional 10G/mGig copper. C9300X-24HX-E keeps its 24 powered multigigabit access ports separate from uplink media choice, so optics and fiber upgrades stay outside the endpoint handoff. Operations keep copper access stable during distribution refreshes. The design gains cleaner uplink migration without replacing the powered copper access layer.

C9300X-24HX-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9300X stackable managed access switch with 24 10G/mGig copper UPOE+ ports and the Network Essentials license tier. It is built for high-speed wired access where endpoints, wireless access points, and powered devices need multigigabit copper handoff, policy control, and modular uplink options in the Catalyst 9000 campus switching family.
The C9300X-24HX-E model number identifies a Catalyst 9300X hardware platform, 24 access ports, HX 10G/mGig copper UPOE+ port design, and the E suffix for Network Essentials. The base hardware is listed by Cisco as C9300X-24HX, while C9300X-24HX-E indicates the same 24-port UPOE+ switch ordered with the Essentials network stack license.
C9300X-24HX-E is a managed Ethernet switch, not a standalone router or firewall appliance. It operates as a Catalyst 9300X stackable campus switch for access-layer and routed-access designs. Network Essentials supports core enterprise switching functions, while routing, segmentation, uplink modules, stacking, and PoE planning are handled through Cisco IOS XE and the selected license model.
C9300X-24HX-E sits in the Cisco Catalyst 9300X branch of the Catalyst 9000 switching lineup. It is above standard 1G Catalyst 9300 access models when 10G multigigabit copper and UPOE+ are required, while remaining an access and routed-access switch rather than a chassis core platform. It uses Network Essentials rather than Network Advantage.
C9300X-24HX-E has 24 multigigabit copper access ports. Cisco lists the C9300X-24HX hardware as supporting 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 Gbps over copper, with UPOE+ on those downlink ports. Uplink capacity is added through compatible C9300X-NM network modules rather than fixed uplink ports.
C9300X-24HX-E follows the C9300X-24HX performance profile with 800 Gbps switching capacity and 654.72 Mpps forwarding rate. Cisco also lists 1,880 Gbps switching capacity with stacking and 1,398.72 Mpps forwarding rate with stacking. Those figures make the switch suitable for dense multigigabit access closets with high-speed uplinks.
C9300X-24HX-E supports Cisco UPOE+ on all 24 multigigabit access ports. Cisco lists a 735W PoE budget for the C9300X-24HX with an 1100W AC power supply. That power profile fits access points, cameras, collaboration endpoints, and other powered edge devices that need more than standard PoE+ budgets.
C9300X-24HX-E is a managed Catalyst switch for Layer 2 access switching and Layer 3 routed-access designs under the Network Essentials tier. It supports enterprise campus functions such as VLANs, trunks, routing interfaces, QoS, ACLs, and operational telemetry through Cisco IOS XE, with license selection determining the advanced feature set available in deployment.
C9300X-24HX-E runs Cisco IOS XE and is managed through standard Catalyst operating workflows, including CLI, SNMP, syslog, NETCONF or RESTCONF where enabled, and Cisco management ecosystems such as Catalyst Center. It also includes local console access through the USB mini-Type B console port and supports the normal Catalyst 9300 operational model.
C9300X-24HX-E supports StackWise-1T and StackPower+ as part of the Catalyst 9300X platform. Cisco lists C9300X-24HX with StackWise-1T, StackPower+, and C9300X-NM network module support. Stacking lets multiple compatible switches operate under one management plane while increasing access-port density and preserving consistent policy across a wiring closet.
C9300X-24HX-E is used for high-speed campus access where copper endpoints need 1G, 2.5G, 5G, or 10G connectivity and powered devices need UPOE+. It fits access closets that aggregate Wi-Fi access points, user ports, cameras, and collaboration equipment before handing traffic to distribution through a selected C9300X network module.
C9300X-24HX-E suits medium to large access deployments that need fewer than 48 copper ports per switch but higher speed and power per port. Its 24-port layout fits closets with concentrated high-bandwidth devices, while StackWise-1T support allows multiple Catalyst 9300X switches to scale under a single management and uplink design.
C9300X-24HX-E suits workloads that push beyond 1G access, including Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E access point backhaul, high-performance workstations, surveillance endpoints, AV systems, and powered network devices. The 10G/mGig copper ports preserve existing twisted-pair cabling where supported while giving network teams higher edge bandwidth and UPOE+ power delivery.
C9300X-24HX-E fits routed-access designs when the network standard uses Catalyst 9300X switches at the access tier with Layer 3 handoff to distribution. Engineers typically combine SVIs, routed links, ACLs, QoS, and routing protocols according to the campus architecture. The Network Essentials tier should be checked against the required routing and automation features.
C9300X-24HX-E uses C9300X-NM network modules for uplinks. Cisco lists compatible options including C9300X-NM-8M for 8 x 10G/mGig copper, C9300X-NM-8Y for 8 x 25G/10G/1G multi-rate SFP, C9300X-NM-2C for 2 x 100G/40G QSFP, and C9300X-NM-4C for 4 x 100G/40G QSFP. Module choice defines the distribution handoff speed and media type.
C9300X-24HX-E uplink optics and cables depend on the installed network module. The C9300X-NM-8Y module uses 25G, 10G, or 1G SFP family transceivers, while C9300X-NM-2C and C9300X-NM-4C use 100G or 40G QSFP optics or cables. Buyers should match Cisco-supported media to distance, fiber type, and upstream switch ports.
C9300X-24HX-E integrates with Cisco Catalyst campus environments, Cisco IOS XE operating practices, Catalyst Center management, Smart Licensing, and Cisco telemetry workflows. It also participates in standards-based Ethernet networks using VLANs, 802.1Q trunks, 802.1X access control, QoS, SNMP monitoring, syslog, and routing designs that match the selected Network Essentials feature set.
C9300X-24HX-E compatibility planning should include C9300X-NM uplink modules, Cisco-supported SFP or QSFP transceivers, StackWise-1T stacking cables, StackPower+ cables, 1100W AC power supply options, rack-mount hardware, and the correct regional power leads. Those items affect uplink speed, stack design, PoE budget, spare strategy, and installation readiness.
C9300X-24HX-E and C9300X-24HX-A use the same 24-port 10G/mGig UPOE+ Catalyst 9300X hardware profile, but the suffix identifies the network stack license tier. C9300X-24HX-E ships with Network Essentials, while C9300X-24HX-A ships with Network Advantage. The Advantage model is the adjacent choice when the design requires the higher license tier.
C9300X-24HX-E provides 24 10G/mGig UPOE+ copper ports, while C9300X-48HX-E provides 48 10G/mGig UPOE+ copper ports in the same Catalyst 9300X family and Network Essentials tier. The 48-port model increases access density, while the 24-port model fits smaller high-speed closets or deployments that prefer lower port concentration per switch.
C9300X-24HX-E is the powered 24-port 10G/mGig UPOE+ model, while C9300X-48TX-E is a 48-port 10G/mGig data-only Catalyst 9300X switch with Network Essentials. C9300X-24HX-E fits powered access designs, and C9300X-48TX-E fits dense copper access where endpoints do not need PoE from the switch. Both use modular C9300X uplinks.
C9300X-24HX-E provides 24 ports that support 10G/mGig UPOE+, while C9300X-48HXN-E provides 40 ports of 5G/mGig plus 8 ports of 10G copper with UPOE+. C9300X-24HX-E is cleaner when every access port needs 10G/mGig capability, while C9300X-48HXN-E targets mixed-speed, higher-density access with more total powered ports per closet.
C9300X-24HX-E is commonly sourced through enterprise hardware channels in new or refurbished condition, subject to supplier availability. ORM Systems can list condition options according to current stock and procurement routes. Buyers comparing new and refurbished units should confirm accessory completeness, power supplies, licensing status, module inclusion, and warranty coverage before ordering.
C9300X-24HX-E pricing is normally quote-based because condition, quantity, software subscription term, uplink modules, optics, power accessories, and lead time change the final cost. Buyers searching for C9300X-24HX-E price should compare the base switch separately from optional C9300X-NM modules and transceivers to avoid mismatched offers and hidden accessory gaps.
C9300X-24HX-E appears in Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series ordering documentation as a Catalyst 9300X 24-port 10G/mGig UPOE+ switch with Network Essentials. Lifecycle status should still be checked against Cisco end-of-sale and end-of-support notices during procurement, especially for projects with long standardization, support, spare-holding windows, and refresh planning across multiple sites.
C9300X-24HX-E lead time depends on live stock, requested condition, quantity, regional logistics, and whether uplink modules or optics are included in the order. Refurbished availability may move faster when tested stock is already allocated, while new units and large project quantities may require distributor or channel confirmation before dispatch.
Bulk pricing for C9300X-24HX-E is usually evaluated by quantity, condition, accessory bundle, and delivery schedule. Multi-site access refreshes may also combine switches with C9300X-NM uplink modules, optics, stacking cables, and power leads. ORM Systems can price those items as a project bill of materials rather than isolated one-off parts.
C9300X-24HX-E warranty coverage from ORM Systems depends on the quoted condition and sales terms, with eligible new and refurbished hardware commonly offered with warranty options up to three years. Buyers should confirm the warranty period, included accessories, serial coverage, and return process at quote stage for each switch and module bundle.
Refurbished C9300X-24HX-E stock should be tested for boot status, port function, PoE delivery, fan and power supply health, uplink module recognition, console access, and cosmetic condition before dispatch. Testing is especially important on UPOE+ switches because access-port speed negotiation, power output, and thermal behavior affect production closet readiness.
C9300X-24HX-E deployments commonly reference Ethernet and campus access standards such as 802.3 multigigabit operation, 802.1Q VLAN tagging, 802.1X access control, and Cisco IOS XE security and management features. For formal compliance, buyers should match the exact regulatory, safety, and environmental certificates from Cisco documentation to the destination country and installation policy.
C9300X-24HX-E is typically staged through the local console or management interface, then configured with management IP addressing, VLANs, trunks or routed interfaces, PoE policies, authentication, logging, SNMP or telemetry, and uplink settings. Stack deployments also require StackWise-1T cabling, member numbering, software alignment, and validation before production cutover.
C9300X-24HX-E includes the Network Essentials hardware license tier, but Cisco ordering also requires a Cisco Catalyst or Cisco DNA software subscription term license with Catalyst 9300 purchases. Buyers should align the selected subscription, Smart Account, feature requirements, and support plan before deployment so the switch operates within the intended Cisco licensing model.
C9300X-24HX-E installation planning should include rack space, power capacity for the 1100W AC supply, cooling, Category cabling suitable for the chosen multigigabit speeds, console access, C9300X-NM uplink modules, optics or DACs, stacking cables where required, and a tested IOS XE image standard. PoE budgets should be calculated before powered endpoints are migrated.
C9300X-24HX-E can be purchased in the UK through ORM Systems as a Cisco Catalyst 9300X managed switch quote. UK buyers should specify required condition, quantity, uplink module, optics, power lead, warranty term, and delivery location so the quotation matches the intended access-layer design rather than only the base switch SKU.
ORM Systems supports international procurement for enterprise networking hardware such as C9300X-24HX-E, subject to stock, export requirements, courier options, and destination-country import rules. International buyers should define Incoterms, delivery address, power cable requirements, warranty expectations, and any bundled C9300X-NM modules or transceivers before the order is finalized.
