Description

Cisco C9300X-24Y-E Switch

The Cisco C9300X-24Y-E Switch is a premier stackable switch designed for bandwidth-intensive environments. The “X” signifies the high-performance hardware line (UADP 3.0), and the “Y” indicates 25G SFP28 capability. This switch is built for organizations that need to aggregate a large number of 10G or 25G links from access switches or high-performance servers while maintaining ultra-low latency and massive throughput.

Key Features and Capabilities

As a member of the “X” family, this switch offers significant hardware upgrades over the standard 9300 series to support the next generation of networking.

  • 24 Multi-Rate Fiber Ports : 24 ports supporting 1G/10G/25G SFP28. This allows for a flexible mix of legacy fiber and modern high-speed connections.

  • 100G Modular Uplinks : Supports the latest network modules with 100G (QSFP28) and 40G speeds, ensuring the bottleneck is never at the uplink.

  • StackWise-1T : When stacked with other “X” models, it supports up to 1 Terabit per second of stacking bandwidth, providing incredible scalability and redundancy.

  • Advanced Security & Encryption : Features hardware-accelerated AES-256 MACsec encryption, providing the most secure method for protecting traffic across the campus.

  • Enhanced Application Hosting : With an x86 CPU and 16GB of RAM, it can host containerized applications like Cisco ThousandEyes for deep network visibility.

  • Network Essentials License : Provides foundational Layer 3 features, including static routing, OSPF, and basic SD-Access capabilities.

Ideal Use Cases

The C9300X-24Y-E is the “Gold Standard” for high-speed infrastructure:

  1. Large Campus Core : Acts as the central heart of a large network, connecting dozens of access switches via 10G or 25G fiber.

  2. Server Farm Aggregation : Perfect for top-of-rack (ToR) deployment in private clouds or data centers requiring 25G connectivity to servers.

  3. High-Bandwidth Aggregation : Ideal for aggregating traffic from Wi-Fi 6/6E access points that are connected to multi-gigabit access switches.

  4. Security-Critical Environments : Suited for sectors that require the highest level of hardware-based data encryption (AES-256).
