Cisco Systems, Inc. C9300X-NM-8Y 8-port 1G/10G/25G SFP switch module

SKU CH-S7PW-63S7E MPN C9300X-NM-8Y

Adds eight 1GbE, 10GbE or 25GbE SFP ports to Catalyst 9300 switches via plug-in module

  • Adds eight multi-rate SFP ports for 1G, 10G or 25G links
  • Plug-in module installs directly into Catalyst 9300 chassis
  • Supports 25 Gbps throughput for high-density aggregation
  • TAA compliant for federal procurement requirements
  • Wired connectivity ensures reliable, low-latency performance

Cisco Catalyst 9300 Network Module

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Network Module is a plug-in expansion module that adds eight SFP ports to compatible Catalyst 9300 switches. It supports 1GbE, 10GbE and 25GbE data link protocols with a maximum data transfer rate of 25 Gbps. The module provides flexible uplink connectivity for enterprise access-layer deployments.

Suits uplinks up to 25GbE over SFP

Network teams needing eight additional SFP ports for 1GbE, 10GbE or 25GbE links can use this module. It fits Catalyst 9300 chassis that accept network modules. Buyers who require higher port speeds, different interface types or Power over Ethernet on these ports cannot use this module. Environments without compatible Catalyst 9300 hardware should look elsewhere.

Eight SFP ports at 25 Gbps maximum

The module delivers eight SFP interfaces, each capable of 1GbE, 10GbE or 25GbE operation. The 25 Gbps peak transfer rate per port determines the uplink bandwidth available. Confirm that the target switch supports this network module and that the SFP transceivers match the desired speed before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the SFP transceivers in the eight ports need periodic replacement?

The module accepts standard SFP transceivers for 1GbE, 10GbE or 25GbE links; those transceivers are hot-swappable and can be replaced individually if a link fails or a speed change is needed.

What limits sustained throughput on the C9300X-NM-8Y?

Each of the eight SFP ports is rated at 25 Gbps, so the module's aggregate ceiling is reached when all ports run at their maximum 25 Gbps line rate simultaneously.

How much extra heat does the module add when all eight ports run at 25 Gbps all day?

The plug-in module draws its power and cooling from the Catalyst 9300 chassis; running every port at 25 Gbps increases chassis airflow demand but adds no separate fan or power supply.
