Cisco, 24-port PoE+, Network Advantage, new
The Cisco Catalyst 9300 C9300-24P-A is a 1RU stackable enterprise access switch with 24 PoE+ Gigabit ports. It has no fixed uplinks: uplinks come from an optional network module (1G, Multigigabit, 10G, 25G or 40G) that is ordered separately. The default 715 W power supply gives 445 W of PoE+. This listing includes C9300-DNA-A-24-3Y, a 3-year Cisco DNA Advantage subscription, for campus and enterprise access layers.

The Catalyst 9300 is Cisco's flagship stackable access switch. It runs Cisco IOS XE on the UADP 2.0 ASIC with an x86 CPU, 8 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash for application hosting, and supports MACsec, SD-Access and model-driven telemetry. The modular uplink slot is empty by default and accepts C9300-NM-4G, C9300-NM-4M, C9300-NM-8X, C9300-NM-2Q or C9300-NM-2Y, so uplink speed can be chosen at purchase and changed later.
It fits campus wiring closets and enterprise floors that need PoE+ for access points, phones and cameras with strong resiliency: dual power supplies, N+1 fans, StackWise-480 stacking of up to eight switches and StackPower to share power across the stack. It stacks with other C9300 models at the same license level, not with C9300L fixed-uplink models.
This listing pairs the switch with C9300-DNA-A-24-3Y, a 3-year Cisco DNA Advantage subscription. The Network Advantage license on the switch is perpetual; the DNA Advantage term is activated in the buyer's Cisco Smart Account, where it is managed alongside the hardware. Network Advantage adds advanced routing, segmentation, multicast, scale and security features on top of Network Essentials, and DNA Advantage adds advanced assurance, analytics, policy-based automation and segmentation to the DNA Essentials feature set.
