Questions & Answers
What is the memory capacity of the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Edge MEM-C8300-32GB module?
The MEM-C8300-32GB module provides 32 GB of DDR4 SDRAM operating at 3200 MT/s for enhanced routing and security performance.
Which memory type and speed does the MEM-C8300-32GB use?
It uses DDR4 SDRAM (PC4-25600) running at 3200 MT/s to meet the high-performance requirements of Catalyst 8300 Edge routers.
Is the MEM-C8300-32GB compatible with all Cisco Catalyst 8300 Edge router models?
Yes. The 32 GB SODIMM is fully compatible with all Catalyst 8300 Edge platforms featuring the memory slot, including 8300-1N1S and 8300-2N2S variants.
How do I install the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Edge 32GB memory module?
Power off the router, open the chassis, align and insert the SODIMM into the memory slot until it clicks, close the chassis, then power the device back on.
Can I mix the MEM-C8300-32GB with existing memory modules?
No. Catalyst 8300 Edge routers support a single memory slot and require this standalone 32 GB module for optimal operation.
What performance improvements can I expect after installing 32GB memory?
Upgrading to 32 GB reduces packet loss under heavy load, increases throughput for SD-WAN and security functions, and supports more concurrent sessions.
What is the part number and SKU for the 32GB memory module?
The Cisco part number and SKU for this upgrade is MEM-C8300-32GB.
Does the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Edge 32GB memory module come with a warranty?
Yes. It is covered by Cisco’s limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and hardware failures.
How do I troubleshoot installation errors with this memory upgrade?
Verify the module is fully seated, confirm BIOS reports 32 GB, update IOS-XE to the latest release, and contact Cisco TAC if issues persist.
Which IOS-XE versions support the 32GB memory upgrade?
All Catalyst 8300 Edge platforms running IOS-XE 17.x or later releases support the MEM-C8300-32GB module.
Is the MEM-C8300-32GB memory module hot-swappable?
No. The module requires a full power cycle for installation and recognition by the system.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of the memory module?
The SODIMM measures 69.6 × 30 × 1 mm and weighs approximately 10 g.
What are the power and thermal specifications of this memory upgrade?
It operates at 1.2 V, consumes up to 3 W, and supports an ambient temperature range of 0–85 °C.
Does Cisco provide technical support for memory installation?
Yes. Cisco TAC offers 24/7 assistance and comprehensive online documentation for memory upgrades and system configuration.
Does upgrading to 32GB memory affect software licensing?
No. Memory capacity does not influence software feature licensing, which is managed separately through Cisco DNA and IOS-XE entitlements.
Where can I purchase the MEM-C8300-32GB memory module?
You can order it from Cisco’s authorized partners, resellers, or via the Cisco online store using SKU MEM-C8300-32GB.
