FAQs

Will this module work in non-Meraki Catalyst 9300X switches?

Yes. Catalyst 9300X hardware can run either classic IOS-XE or the Meraki Dashboard firmware. The C9300X-NM-2C-M is supported in both personas.

Do I need new licenses when adding the module?

No. Licensing is tied to the switch, not the uplink module. Your existing Catalyst 9300-M Enterprise or Advanced license remains valid.

How many modules can a switch take?

Each 9300X chassis has one network-module slot, so you can install one C9300X-NM-2C-M (or another compatible module) per switch.

What optics are supported?

The QSFP28 cages accept Cisco or Meraki 40 G and 100 G transceivers such as MA-QSFP-40G-SR-BD or MA-QSFP-100G-SR4.

Which software version enables 100 G operation?

IOS-XE 17.15 or later (or the equivalent Meraki CS firmware) is required to unlock 100 Gbps line-rate on both ports.:contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Licensing and Support

Every Catalyst 9300X switch needs an active Catalyst 9300-M license—choose Enterprise for core switching or Advanced for Adaptive Policy, NetFlow (IPFIX) and advanced analytics. Licenses are available in 1-, 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-year terms and include 24 × 7 Meraki cloud support, lifetime hardware warranty, and next-business-day advance replacement through our Australian logistics hubs.
