Platform benefits Cisco IOS XE opens a completely new paradigm in network configuration, operation, and monitoring through network automation. Cisco’s automation solution is open, standards-based, and extensible across the entire lifecycle of a network device. The various automation mechanisms are outlined below.

• Automated device provisioning is the ability to automate the process of upgrading software images and installing configuration files on Cisco Catalyst switches when they are being deployed in the network for the first time. Cisco provides both turnkey solutions such as Plug and Play and off-the-shelf tools such as Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) and Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) that enable an effortless and automated deployment.

• API-driven configuration is available with modern network switches such as the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. It supports a wide range of automation features and provides robust open APIs over NETCONF and RESTCONF and GNMI using YANG data models for external tools, both off-the-shelf and custom built, to automatically provision network resources.

• Granular visibility enables model-driven telemetry to stream data from a switch to a destination. The data to be streamed is identified through subscription to a data set in a YANG model. The subscribed data set is streamed to the destination at specified intervals. Additionally, Cisco IOS XE enables the push model. It provides near-real-time monitoring of the network, leading to quick detection and rectification of failures.

• Seamless software upgrades and patching supports OS resilience. Cisco IOS XE supports patching, which provides fixes for critical bugs and security vulnerabilities between regular maintenance releases. This support lets you add patches without having to wait for the next maintenance release.


Built to reimagine connections, reinforce security and redefine experience, the Catalyst 9000 family, including the new Catalyst 9000X models, offers versatile design for more flexible operations. The Catalyst 9000 family also assures a more secure experience, and brings exceptional speed and scale to the table. Catalyst 9000 switches lead the industry with the first 400G interfaces in Enterprise, first Silicon One ASICs for campus, full mGig and UPOE+ ports, converged switching and routing, and continuous zero-trust security.

Transform the workspace for hybrid work with a powerful platform that provides the broadest range of bandwidth, speed, scale, and power required for today’s more immersive experiences, big and small. Secure the network from inside to outside by leveraging enhanced computational power and advanced AI/ML to apply continuous zero trust security anywhere it’s needed. Future proof design so IT can work smarter not harder, with converged switching/routing capabilities, enhanced app-hosting and more config automations for a smarter, more agile campus and branch.

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 Software-Defined Access (SD-Access), Cisco’s lead enterprise architecture. 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 optimised 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.

C9300-48P-A: Catalyst 9300 48-port PoE+, Network Advantage
48 × PoE+ 10/100/1000 Ports
715 Watt Power Supply
PoE Budget of 437W

Features:

Highest wireless scale with Wave 2 access points supported on a single switch with select models
UADP 2.0 Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) with programmable pipeline and microengine capabilities, along with template-based, configurable allocation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding, Access Control Lists (ACLs), and Quality of Service (QoS) entries
x86 CPU complex with 8-GB memory, and 16 GB of flash and external USB 3.0 SSD pluggable storage slot (delivering 120GB of storage with an option SSD drive) to host containers
USB 2.0 slot to load system images and set configurations
Up to 480 Gbps of local stackable switching bandwidth
Leading PoE capabilities with up to 384 ports of PoE per stack and PoE+
Intelligent Power Management with Cisco StackPower technology, providing power stacking among members for power redundancy
Line-rate, hardware-based Flexible NetFlow (FNF), delivering flow collection of up to 64,000 flows
IPv6 support in hardware, providing wire-rate forwarding for IPv6 networks
Dual-stack support for IPv4/IPv6 and dynamic hardware forwarding table allocations, for ease of IPv4-to-IPv6 migration
IEEE 802.1ba AV Bridging (AVB) built in to provide a better audio and video experience through improved time synchronization and QoS
Precision Time Protocol (PTP; IEEE 1588v2) provides accurate clock synchronisation with sub-microsecond accuracy making it suitable for distribution and synchronisation of time and frequency over network
Cisco IOS XE, a modern operating system for the enterprise with support for model-driven programmability including NETCONF, RESTCONF, YANG, on-box Python scripting, streaming telemetry, container-based application hosting, and patching for critical bug fixes. The OS also has built-in defenses to protect against runtime attacks
SD-Access: The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches form the foundational building block for SD-Access, Cisco’s lead enterprise architecture: Policy-based automation from edge to cloud
Simplified segmentation and micro-segmentation, with predictable performance and scalability
Automation through the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module (APIC-EM)
Policy handled through the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)
Network assurance provided through the Network Data Platform
Faster launch of new business services and significantly improved issue resolution time

SD-Access Embedded Wireless: The Cisco Catalyst 9800 Wireless Controller Software package can be installed on Cisco Catalyst 9300 series switches to enable wireless controller functionality for distributed branches and small campuses. Once installed Wireless Controller running on Catalyst 9300 can support up-to 200 APs and 4000 Clients. Maximum two Wireless Controllers can be enabled per site on two different Catalyst 9300 which will increase to scale to 400 APs and 8000 Wireless Clients. C9800 Wireless Controller Software Package will enable Wireless Functionality only for SD-Access deployments with two supported topologies : C9800 Wireless Software Package can be enabled on C9300 series switches functioning as Co-Located Border and Control Plane
C9800 Wireless Software Package can be enabled on C9300 series switches functioning as Fabric in a Box

Plug and Play (PnP) enabled: A simple, secure, unified, and integrated offering to ease new branch or campus device rollouts or updates to an existing network
Advanced security Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA): You benefit from the power of machine learning to identify and take actions toward threats or anomalies in your network, including malware detection in encrypted traffic (without decryption) and distributed anomaly detection
Support for AES-256 with the powerful MACsec 256-bit encryption algorithm available on all models
Trustworthy systems: Hardware anchored Secure Boot and Secure Unique Device Identification (SUDI) support for Plug and Play, to verify the identity of the hardware and software
