Product Overview

The Cisco Catalyst 9200-24P-E Switch is a robust, high-performance 24-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for modern enterprise access layer deployments. It delivers full Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support, providing up to 30W per port to power devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and IoT endpoints. As part of the intent-based Catalyst 9200 Series, it offers enhanced security, scalability, and operational simplicity, making it an ideal solution for business-critical networks.

Key Selling Points

• Full PoE+ support on all 24 ports with dynamic power allocation
• Advanced security features including MACsec encryption and Cisco Trust Anchor
• StackWise-160 support for up to 160 Gbps stacking bandwidth
• Cisco IOS XE Software for automation and programmability
• Energy-efficient design with ENERGY STAR® certification available

Key Features

• 24 x 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports, 4 x modular uplink slots
• Support for IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30W per port)
• Redundant power supply support with field-replaceable units (FRUs)
• Cisco StackWise-160 technology for scalable stacking
• Cisco IOS XE with model-driven programmability and RESTCONF/NETCONF
• SD-Access support for simplified network segmentation
• AES-128 MACsec encryption for secure communications

Core Technologies

The Catalyst 9200-24P-E leverages Cisco's UADP 2.0 Mini ASIC with an integrated CPU, enabling high-performance switching and advanced features. It supports a wide range of technologies including:

• IEEE 802.1AE MACsec for encryption
• IEEE 802.3at PoE+ for powered device support
• Cisco StackWise-160 for virtual stacking
• Cisco IOS XE for automation and telemetry
• Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for time synchronization

How It Works

The switch operates as an access layer device, connecting end-user devices and providing power via PoE+. It uses hardware-based forwarding through the UADP ASIC, ensuring low latency and high throughput. For management, it supports both traditional CLI and modern programmatic interfaces like NETCONF/YANG. In stacked configurations, multiple units operate as a single logical device with unified management.

Applications

• Enterprise campus access layer deployments
• Mid-market branch office networks
• Educational institutions and classrooms
• Healthcare environments for connected devices
• Retail and hospitality PoE-enabled installations

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum PoE power available?
A: With a single PWR-C6-600WAC power supply, the switch provides 370W PoE power. With an identical secondary power supply, this increases to 740W.

Q: Can this switch be stacked with other models?
A: Yes, it supports StackWise-160 technology and can be stacked with other C9200 models with the same license level, but not with C9200L or C9200CX models.

Q: Does it support SD-Access?
A: Yes, the Catalyst 9200-24P-E supports SD-Access with up to 4 Virtual Networks (VNs) and 25 fabric-enabled access points.

Q: What management options are available?
A: It can be managed via CLI, Cisco Catalyst Center, Meraki dashboard, or embedded WebUI.

Q: Is this switch ENERGY STAR certified?
A: The C9200-24P-E model itself is not ENERGY STAR certified, but several C9200L models in the series are certified.

Important Notes

• Ensure proper cooling and ventilation – operating temperature: -5°C to +45°C
• Use only compatible Cisco power supplies and modules
• For PoE calculations, consider both port density and power budget
• Verify software compatibility for specific features (IOS-XE 16.9.2 or later required)
• Follow local electrical and safety regulations during installation
