Cisco Catalyst C9200L‑24P‑4X 24‑Port PoE+ Switch
Why Choose C9200L‑24P-4X?
-
PoE+ for Real-World Deployments - Power Wi-Fi 6/6E APs, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and IoT devices without additional injectors.
-
10G Uplinks for Bottleneck-Free Networks - 4×10G SFP+ dual-rate uplinks provide ten times the bandwidth of -4G models, essential for high-density wireless and video workloads.
-
Flexible Licensing (Essentials vs Advantage) - Essentials for cost-effective L2/L3 access, Advantage unlocks BGP, VRF, VXLAN, LISP for small core or secure IoT networks.
-
Enterprise Security Built-In - AES-128 MACsec, 802.1X, Trust Anchor, and ACLs.
-
Scalable Stacking Architecture - Stack up to 8 switches → 192 PoE+ ports + unified management with StackWise‑80.
Engineer's Pro Tip
When deploying for Wi-Fi 6E, we recommend pairing the C9200L-24P-4X with NS-SFP-10G-SR modules. Our testing shows 100% compatibility with Cisco IOS XE 17.x, providing the same low-latency performance as original modules at a significantly lower TCO for large campus rollouts. For high-resolution surveillance (4K/8K), the switch's 95.23 Mpps forwarding rate and 6 MB packet buffer handle continuous video streams without drops, while 10G uplinks prevent backhaul congestion.
Overview
The Cisco Catalyst C9200L‑24P‑4X is the performance ceiling of the C9200L series, making it highly attractive for enterprises migrating to Wi‑Fi 6/6E.
It delivers 24 full PoE+ (30W per port) Gigabit Ethernet ports to power APs, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and IoT devices. Supports Perpetual PoE, maintaining power to connected devices (like IP cameras) even during a switch reload, minimizing downtime for critical security systems.
Equipped with 4×10G SFP+ Fixed Dual-Rate Uplinks, the switch eliminates the 1G bottleneck, providing 128 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity. This ensures high-density Wi-Fi 6/6E APs and multi-gigabit workloads operate at peak performance without congestion.
Built on the Cisco UADP 2.0 Mini ASIC, with 2 GB DRAM and 4 GB flash, it runs Cisco IOS XE and supports:
-
Network Essentials: Optimized for Layer 2 access with static routing and OSPF.
-
Network Advantage: Unlocks BGP, VRF, VXLAN, and LISP, transforming the switch into a high-speed, segmented core for branch offices or secure IoT zones.
With StackWise‑80 (80 Gbps), enterprise security (MACsec, Trust Anchor), and integration with Cisco DNA Center and Meraki Dashboard, the C9200L‑24P‑4X is ideal for scalable, secure, cloud-managed deployments.
Positioning: Perfect for PoE-heavy, high-bandwidth edge environments, bridging access and aggregation layers with 10G uplinks.
