C9300 Distribution Switches

CLOUD MANAGED STACKABLE ACCESS SWITCHES

The Catalyst 9300-M addresses the most demanding enterprise applications by combining the simplicity of the Meraki dashboard with powerful switching hardware. To satisfy high-bandwidth applications and the deployment of high-speed 802.11ax/wifi-6 access points, the Catalyst 9300-M provides multigigabit ports, 1T/480G stacking, and modular 10/40G uplinks (C9300 & C9300X). The Catalyst 9300-M delivers resiliency with fast stack convergence and StackPower. The Catalyst 9300-M provides Adaptive Policy using an over-the-wire tag which segments traffic into security groups to deliver scalable security. The Catalyst 9300-M is integrated under the Meraki dashboard to provide a simply powerful solution to the most demanding wired access applications.

 

INDUSTRY LEADING CLOUD MANAGEMENT

Cloud management has a number of benefits that make it easier to build networks large and small:

  • True zero-touch device provisioning.
  • Virtual stacking: manage up to thousands of ports from a single pane of glass.
  • Application layer visibility with automatic operating system, client, and hostname fingerprinting.
  • Powerful Live Tools such as packet capture and cable test to isolate and troubleshoot network issues.
  • Alerts upon power loss, downtime, or configuration changes.
  • Role-based administration and automatic, scheduled firmware upgrades over the web.
  • Regular feature updates and enhancements delivered on demand from the Meraki cloud.

The Catalyst 9300-M license applies to all c9300 hardware platforms (c9300 / c9300L / c9300X) excluding the MS390. Catalyst 9300-M license structure includes two feature tiers:  Enterprise and Advanced.  As with all Meraki managed switches, every Catalyst 9300-M license is available in 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 year terms. 

In the Co-term licensing model (most existing Organizations), an Organization must either have all Catalyst 9300/L/X-M Enterprise or all Catalyst 9300/L/X-M Advanced licenses – they cannot be mixed. In the Per-device licensing model, a mix of Enterprise and Advanced can be added to a single Organization, but certain features may require all devices in a Network to have Advanced licenses, e.g. Adaptive Policy.

Additional Information: MS390s existing in the same co-term Organization will require the same license edition (either Enterprise or Advanced) as the Catalyst 9300/L/X-M. License types cannot be mixed and will result in an incompatible license error.
In a co-term license Organization – MS130, MS150, MS390, C9300 require the same license tier (either Enterprise of Advanced) across the entire Organization.
For example, if an organization has existing MS390/C9300/MS150/MS130 with enterprise licenses, they cannot add C9300’s with advanced licenses in that organization – they must be added with enterprise licenses.
If the organization has existing MS390/C9300/MS150/MS130 with advanced licenses, they cannot add C9300’s with enterprise licenses in that organization – they must be added with advanced licenses.

It looks like your shopping cart is such that we can give you a discount on your order!

That might be worth up to about 5% to you.

We can email you a quote same day, but it might take a couple of days to confirm the details. We WILL need the details of the end user of the purchase if that isn't you. We won't contact them, though!

So if you have the time, you might want to ask MerakiStore for a quote instead of checking out today.
