The Cisco® Catalyst® 9300 Series Switches are Cisco’s lead stackable enterprise switching platform built for security, IoT, mobility, and cloud. They are the next generation of the industry’s most widely deployed switching platform. The Catalyst 9300 Series switches form the foundational building block for Software-Defined Access(SD-Access), Cisco’s lead enterprise architecture. At 480 Gbps, they are the industry’s highest-density stacking bandwidth solution with the most flexible uplink architecture. The Catalyst 9300 Series is the first optimized platform for high-density 802.11ac Wave2. It sets new maximums for network scale. These switches are also ready for the future, with an x86 CPU architecture and more memory, enabling them to host containers and run third-party applications and scripts natively within the switch.The Catalyst 9300 Series is designed for Cisco StackWise® technology, providing flexible deployment with support for nonstop forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO), for the most resilient architecture in a stackable (sub-50-ms) solution. The highly resilient and efficient power architecture features Cisco StackPower®, which delivers high-density Cisco Universal Power Over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE®) and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) ports. The switches are based on the Cisco Unified Access™ Data Plane 2.0 (UADP) 2.0 architecture which not only protects your investment but also allows a larger scale and higher throughput. A modern operating system, Cisco IOS XE with programmability offers advanced security capabilities and Internet of Things (IoT) convergence.The foundation of Software-Defined AccessAdvanced persistent security threats. The exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Mobility everywhere. Cloud adoption. All of these require a network fabric that integrates advanced hardware and software innovations to automate, secure, and simplify customer networks. The goal of this network fabric is to enable customer revenue growth by accelerating the rollout of business services.The Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA™) with SD-Access is the network fabric that powers business. It is an open and extensible, software-driven architecture that accelerates and simplifies your enterprise network operations. The programmable architecture frees your IT staff from time-consuming, repetitive network configuration tasks so they can focus instead on innovation that positively transforms your business. SD-Access enables policy-based automation from edge to cloud with foundational capabilities.

The Cisco Catalyst 1300-8FP-2G switch is part of the fully managed switch line that delivers reliable and secure connectivity for small business networks. These switches accelerate your digital transformation by delivering full Layer 2/3 capabilities, an intuitive web dashboard, advanced networking features and PoE+ support.

The Cisco® Catalyst® 9500 Series Switches are the next generation of enterprise-class core and aggregation layer switches, supporting full programmability and serviceability. Based on an x86 CPU, the Catalyst 9500 Series is Cisco’s lead purpose-built fixed core and aggregation enterprise switching platform, built for security, IoT, and cloud. The switches come with a 4-core, 2.4-GHz CPU, 16-GB DDR4 memory, and 16-GB internal storage.The Catalyst 9500 Series is the industry’s first purpose-built 40 Gigabit Ethernet line of switches targeted for the enterprise campus. These switches deliver unmatched table scale (MAC/route/ACL) and buffering for enterprise applications. The Catalyst 9500 Series includes nonblocking 40G Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP+) and 1G/10G Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP/SFP+) switches with granular port densities that fit diverse campus needs. The switches support advanced routing and infrastructure services (such as Multiprotocol Label Switching [MPLS] Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPNs, Multicast VPN [MVPN], and Network Address Translation [NAT]); software-defined access border capabilities (such as a host tracking database, cross-domain connectivity, and VPN Routing and Forwarding [VRF]-aware Locator/ID Separation Protocol [LISP]); and network system virtualization with Cisco StackWise® virtual technology that are critical for their placement in the campus core. The platform also supports all the foundational high-availability capabilities such as patching, Graceful Insertion and Removal (GIR), Cisco Nonstop Forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO), redundant platinum-rated power supplies, and fans.

High-Performance Wi-Fi 7 WirelessCisco Wireless 9176 Series Wi-Fi 7 access points are ideal for high-density environments and critical applications. These access points also allow choosing between on-premises and cloud management. Cisco Wireless' Wi-Fi 7 access points can leverage Wi-Fi 7 to support video streaming, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) applications. These access points offer real-time insights and personalized user experiences.The Cisco Wireless 9176 Series Wi-Fi 7 access points enable operation in the 2.4, 5 and 6GHz bands for higher throughput and capacity. These access points provide three 4x4 radios and IoT radios.The Cisco Wireless 9176 Series offers an Omni-directional antenna model, the CW9176I, suitable for most enterprise deployments and an internal directional antenna model, the CW9176D1, designed for use cases and areas with high ceilings such as auditoriums, warehouses, and other large open space areas. The CW9176D1 should be leveraged where typically external antennas would be required. Since the CW9176D1 uses a built-in directional antenna, it eliminates the need for additional hardware to achieve ideal wireless coverage.Operational management is flexible because the network management can be changed anytime. If a network with Cisco Wireless 9176 Series access points was originally an on-premises deployment, it can be changed to cloud-based management without the need to purchase and redistribute additional hardware. Cisco Meraki Cloud Management Pairing the Cisco Wireless 9176 Series access points with the Meraki cloud platform provides a unified IT experience for network monitoring and management. The Meraki dashboard has an intuitive and interactive web interface.Through the dashboard, Meraki provides sophisticated and scalable tools to automate network optimization, deploy policy and segmentation configurations across thousands of sites and devices. It also can manage a full-stack network with SD-WAN, Access, and IoT technologies. The platform supports over 3.5 million active networks around the world.Working together, the Cisco Wireless 9176 Series and Cisco Meraki offer such features as:- Cisco Spaces- Cisco Identity Services Engine- Meraki Health intelligent optimization and assurance- Meraki Vision, smart cameras, and sensors for network closet monitoringCisco Catalyst Center and Catalyst 9800 WLC supportCisco Wireless 9176 Series access points can also be managed with Catalyst 9800 WLC and Cisco Catalyst Center. Cisco Catalyst Center allows you to understand your network with real-time analytics, quickly detect and contain security threats, and easily provide network-wide consistency through automation and virtualization. Working together, the Cisco Wireless 9176 Series and Catalyst Center offer such features as:- Cisco Spaces- Cisco Identity Services Engine- Cisco Catalyst Center Analytics and Assurance along with Intelligence Capture (iCAP)
