Cisco Catalyst 9200-24T 24-Port Data Switch
Overview
The Cisco Catalyst 9200-24T is a 24-port Gigabit data access switch (non-PoE) built for high-reliability wired connectivity in enterprise and SMB environments such as campus networks, branch offices, IT closets, and server rack access deployments.
Powered by the Cisco UADP 2.0 ASIC and running Cisco IOS XE, it delivers wire-speed performance, ultra-low latency, and exceptional hardware reliability, making it ideal for data-only environments without PoE requirements.
Thanks to its modular uplink design, StackWise-160 high availability, and FRU components, the C9200-24T is widely used in:
-
Enterprise wired office access (non-PoE)
-
SMB server rack access
-
IT closet aggregation (IDF/MDF)
