Product Overview
C9300-24U-E Overview
The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches are Cisco's lead stackable enterprise switching platform built for security, IoT, mobility, and cloud. C9300-24U-E is 24-port UPOE, Network Essentials Switch of 9300 series. Catalyst 9300 Series are the next generation of the industry's most widely deployed switching platform. At 480 Gbps, they are the industry's highest-density stacking bandwidth solution with the most flexible uplink architecture. The Catalyst 9300 Series is the first optimized platform for high-density 802.11ac Wave2. It sets new maximums for network scale. These switches are also ready for the future, with an x86 CPU architecture and more memory, enabling them to host containers and run third-party applications and scripts natively within the switch. The published specification for C9300-24U-E lists 24 Cisco UPOE and 830W available to powered devices. It is supplied new factory sealed, with the serial list issued before shipment and 12 months replacement warranty as standard.
Key Benefits
What Owning C9300-24U-E Changes
Powered Access Without a Separate Injector Build
24 Cisco UPOE with 830W available to powered devices, so access points cameras and phones are fed from the same switch instead of from a parallel power estate.
Rated Performance Written Into the Quotation
208 Gbps on 24-port Gigabit Ethernet model published for C9300-24U-E as its switching capacity, confirmed against the current datasheet revision when the line is quoted.
One Managed Unit Instead of Several
Cisco StackWise-480 support on this model lets a multi switch closet be configured monitored and upgraded as a single device, which cuts the work in every change window.
Table Sizes Checked Against the Design
A Total number of MAC addresses of 32,000 on this model, the kind of ceiling that only becomes visible once a flat segment has grown.
Support Registered Under the End User Name
A vendor support contract for C9300-24U-E is written under the end customer name, so the entitlement sits with the organisation that owns the outage.
Problems It Solves
Pain Points C9300-24U-E Removes
- Long factory lead times on a project already committed to a go live date
- Grey market stock that cannot be registered for support or warranty
- Port count and PoE budget that no longer cover new access points and cameras
- Network modules ordered late and delivered after the change window closed
- PoE budgets sized for desk phones and now asked to carry Wi-Fi 6 access points, where 830W is the figure that decides it
Who It Is For
Who Benefits Most From C9300-24U-E
Healthcare Estates
Working to very short change windows with serial level records required for compliance
Machine Builders
Replacing an installed component with one that behaves identically to the unit removed
Campus Network Teams
Running one access standard across buildings of very different ages
Hosting Providers
Building repeatable nodes where every batch has to match the last one

Use Guide
Deployment Guide for C9300-24U-E
Confirm the Full Part Number
Check C9300-24U-E character for character including any suffix. On this class of hardware a single trailing character commonly changes the software tier, the power option, or whether a bundle is included.
Check Site Prerequisites
Confirm rack space, power feed, cabling and any uplink or accessory dependency before the order rather than on the day of installation.
Calculate the Power Budget
Compare the devices this unit will feed against the 830W available, using realistic device draw with headroom rather than class maximums.
Record It on Arrival
Photograph the sealed carton, reconcile the serial against the list supplied before shipment, then open and confirm the unit matches the label.
Bench Power Before Racking
Power the unit, capture the software version and the port or drive inventory, and record it while the unit is still accessible.
Register Support Entitlement
Register the support contract under the end user name so the entitlement sits with the organisation that owns the outage.

Where It Goes
Industries That Deploy It
Manufacturing and Logistics
Connectivity for plant floors, warehouses and distribution sites built for continuous operation rather than office hours.
Data Center
Top of rack switching, compute and storage delivered in the phased increments a cabinet build actually consumes.
Enterprise Campus
Access, distribution and wireless supplied to one standard so every closet in every building behaves the same way.
Solutions
Programmes It Is Supplied Under
Global Logistics and Drop Shipping
Hong Kong is a practical despatch point for most of the world. Consignments go to the site, not to a central store and then out again.
Procurement for System Integrators
An integrator carries the risk between quoting a client and receiving the hardware. Firm pricing and a written lead time per line is what makes that risk manageable.
Network Refresh Programme
Most refresh projects fail on supply rather than on design. A phased programme only works if every phase arrives complete on the date the change window was booked.

Project Cases and Guides
Regional Bank Branch Refresh Across 140 Sites
The branch edge had reached end of software support and the estate had drifted into four different router models bought across eight years
University Campus Wi-Fi Density Upgrade
Lecture theatres and the library could not carry the client counts actually present, while the work could only happen during vacations
How to Read Cisco Catalyst Part Numbers
A Catalyst part number encodes the port count, the port type, the uplink arrangement and the software tier. Misreading one character changes what arrives.
PoE Budget Planning for Access Switches
Port count and power budget are two separate limits. Most PoE shortfalls come from planning only the first one.
Choosing Optical Transceivers for Reach
Coding, fibre type, reach and connector are four independent decisions, and any one of them can stop a link coming up.
FAQ
C9300-24U-E Frequently Asked Questions
Is C9300-24U-E New or Refurbished
Standard supply is new factory sealed in the original vendor carton. If a quotation offers another condition that is stated explicitly in writing before you commit.
Can I Get the Serial Numbers for C9300-24U-E Before Payment Clears
Yes. Serials are issued before shipment so you can check them on the manufacturer portal while the goods are still with us.
What Is the Lead Time for C9300-24U-E
Availability is confirmed in writing per line at quotation rather than as a project average, because one late line is what moves an installation date.
What Warranty Does C9300-24U-E Carry
12 months replacement as standard. A vendor support contract is available separately and is registered under the end user name.
How Much PoE Power Does C9300-24U-E Provide
The manufacturer lists available poe power of 830W for this model. A PoE budget should be calculated from realistic device draw with headroom rather than from class maximums.
What Performance Is C9300-24U-E Rated For
The published switching capacity is 208 Gbps on 24-port Gigabit Ethernet model. Full port and performance specifications are issued with the quotation against the current datasheet revision.
Are Uplink Modules and Optics Included With C9300-24U-E
They are quoted as separate lines and reviewed against the chassis before the quotation is issued, so they reach site in the same consignment as the unit they belong to.
Can C9300-24U-E Be Stacked With Other Switches
The manufacturer lists Cisco StackWise-480 support for this model. Stacking cables are a separate line and are quoted with the switches so a multi switch closet arrives complete.
What Table Sizes Does C9300-24U-E Carry
The published Total number of MAC addresses is 32,000. Table ceilings usually only become visible once a flat segment has grown, so they are worth checking against the design rather than against today's estate.
