CATALYST 9300 48-PORT UPOE NETWORK ESSENTIALS

The Cisco® Catalyst® 9300 Series Switches are Cisco’s lead stackable enterprise switching platform built for security, IoT, mobility, and cloud. They are the next generation of the industry’s most widely deployed switching platform. The Catalyst 9300 Series switches form the foundational building block for SoftwareDefined Access (SDAccess), Cisco’s lead enterprise architecture. At 480 Gbps, they are the industry’s highestdensity stacking bandwidth solution with the most flexible uplink architecture.

The Catalyst 9300 Series is the first optimized platform for highdensity 802.11ac Wave2. These switches are also ready for the future, with an x86 CPU architecture and more memory, enabling them to host containers and run thirdparty applications and scripts natively within the switch. The Catalyst 9300 Series is designed for Cisco StackWise® virtual technology, providing flexible deployment with support for nonstop forwarding with stateful switchover (NSF/SSO), for the most resilient architecture in a stackable sub50ms solution.

The highly resilient and efficient power architecture features Cisco StackPower®, which delivers highdensity Cisco Universal Power Over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE®) and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) ports. The switches are based on the Cisco Unified Access™ Data Plane 2.0 (UADP) 2.0 architecture which not only protects your investment but also allows a larger scale and higher throughput. A modern operating system, open Cisco IOS XE with programmability offers advanced security capabilities and Internet of Things (IoT) convergence.

The foundation of SoftwareDefined Access Advanced persistent security threats. The exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. All of these require a network fabric that integrates advanced hardware and software innovations to automate, secure, and simplify customer networks. The goal of this network fabric is to enable customer revenue growth by accelerating the rollout of business services. The Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA™) with SDAccess is the network fabric that powers business.

It is an open and extensible, softwaredriven architecture that accelerates and simplifies your enterprise network operations. The programmable architecture frees your IT staff from timeconsuming, repetitive network configuration tasks so they can focus instead on innovation that positively transforms your business. SDAccess enables policybased automation from edge to cloud with foundational capabilities.
