Cisco Cards: Dual 100G QSFP28, High-Density & SDN-Ready Module for Catalyst 9300X
The Cisco Catalyst 9300X-NM-2C= is a high-performance network module designed for the Catalyst 9300X series switches, delivering dual 100G QSFP28 ports for scalable, high-bandwidth connectivity. Ideal for enterprise core, data center, and campus networks, this module enables flexible uplinks, low-latency forwarding, and SDN-ready automation with Cisco IOS-XE.
Dual 100G/40G Ports: Supports 2x QSFP28 slots (100G each), backward-compatible with 40G QSFP+ optics for seamless upgrades.
High-Density Scalability: Expands the Catalyst 9300X’s capacity without replacing the chassis, ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications.
SDN & Automation Ready: Integrates with Cisco DNA Center and supports RESTCONF/NETCONF APIs for programmable workflows.
Enterprise-Grade Security: Features MACsec encryption (802.1AE) and Cisco TrustSec for data protection.
Low-Latency Performance: Leverages Cisco UADP ASIC for wire-speed traffic processing (VoIP, video, IoT).
Hot-Swappable Design: Minimizes downtime during deployments or maintenance.
