PoE Budget Planning
For a Cisco C9300L-24P-4X-E deployment, multiply each powered device's datasheet maximum input by its quantity, then add a 25% planning reserve (not an IEEE requirement). Compare that total with the available PoE budget: 505W with default 715W AC PSU; up to 720W with a suitable second PSU. Check each device against its port's IEEE PoE power limit and the available powered-port count; the per-port rating does not mean every port can supply that maximum at once. Calculate your project PoE budget before selecting power-supply options. The result is a planning estimate, not a compatibility guarantee.
Use Cases & Deployment Scenarios
