Cisco C9300X-NM-2C Catalyst 9300X Network Module – 2x 100G QSFP

About the C9300X-NM-2C

The C9300X-NM-2C gives a Catalyst 9300X two QSFP uplink ports that run at 100G or 40G. It is the module for a 9300X that uplinks to a 100G core or distribution layer, or to a 40G one today.

The 9300X has four modules of its own: this one, the C9300X-NM-4C (four 100G/40G QSFP28, for three 9300X models only), the C9300X-NM-8Y (eight 25G/10G/1G SFP28) and the C9300X-NM-8M (eight 10G mGig copper). The C9300X-NM-2C fits every 9300X model, such as the C9300X-12Y-E, C9300X-24HX-A and C9300X-48TX-E; the full list is below. It does not fit the standard Catalyst 9300 or 9300L. The C9300X-NM-2C-WS is the same module, refurbished.

Common questions

Does the C9300X-NM-2C fit a standard Catalyst 9300?

No. It is for Catalyst 9300X switches only. The standard C9300 models take the standard 9300 network modules.

Can it run at 40G?

Yes. Both QSFP ports run at 100G or 40G.

What if I need more than two 100G ports?

The C9300X-NM-4C has four 100G/40G ports, but it fits only the C9300X-48HX, C9300X-48TX and C9300X-24Y.
