FAQs
Is the module plug-and-play?
Yes. Slide the module into the open bay of a compatible Catalyst 9300X-M switch and it will be detected automatically in Cisco IOS-XE and the Meraki Dashboard.
Do I need new licenses?
No additional license is required beyond the existing Catalyst 9300-M Enterprise or Advanced subscription already applied to the switch.
Which transceivers are supported?
The module accepts Cisco SFP28/SFP+ optics and DAC/AOC cables approved for 25 G, 10 G and 1 G operation, making it easy to re-use current inventory.
Can I mix 25 G and 10 G links on the same module?
Absolutely—each port negotiates speed independently, so you can run 25 G to your core switch and 10 G to legacy equipment simultaneously.
