Network Module for Catalyst 9300

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 8x10GE Network Module adds eight 10GBase-X ports to a compatible Catalyst 9300 Series switch. It is designed for network administrators expanding high-speed connectivity in enterprise campus or data-centre environments. The plug-in module installs directly into the switch chassis to provide immediate port density increases.

Integration and Cabling Requirements

This module occupies a single network module slot on a Catalyst 9300 Series switch and requires no external power supply. It supports twisted-pair copper cabling for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links up to 100 meters. The eight ports free up existing uplink or downlink slots while adding 10 Gbps line-rate capacity per port for server or aggregation links.

Thermal and Power Characteristics

As a plug-in module, it draws power from the host switch and relies on the chassis fan assembly for cooling. Normal operation adds incremental heat to the switch interior within the system's designed thermal envelope. Acoustic output remains governed by the main switch fans, with no additional noise source introduced by the module itself.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum sustained throughput per port on the 8x10G module?

Each port delivers up to 10 Gbps using 10GBase-X technology.

How much power and heat does the module add to a Catalyst 9300 running continuously?

The module plugs into the switch chassis and draws power from the host, so its thermal contribution depends on the 9300 system design.

Which switch chassis must I already own to install this network module?

It is compatible only with Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches.
