Compared to the scale and feature richness the of Catalyst 9300 Series switches, Catalyst 9200 Series switches focus on offering right-sized switching for simple branch deployments. With its family pedigree, Catalyst 9200 Series offers simplicity without compromise – it is secure, always on and provides a new level of IT simplicity. These switches also support full IEEE 802.3at PoE+, fixed and modular options with field-replaceable network modules, redundant fans, and power supplies and a variety of uplink modules.

1. New: Catalyst 9200 Switches-Secure, Always on,
and IT Simplified
Q: What are Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Switches?
A: Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series of enterprise-class access switches switches extend the
power of intent-based networking and Catalyst 9000 hardware and software
innovation to a broader set of deployments.

Q: What are the key SKUs in the Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series?
A: The Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series has eight primary 8 fixed SKUs and 4 modular
SKUs
• 48 ports with 10 G fixed uplinks
C9200L-48T-4X: 48 ports data, 10G uplinks
C9200L-48P-4X: 48 ports PoE+, 10G uplinks

Q: Can I stack Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Switches with the Cisco Catalyst
2960-X/XR Series Switches?
A: These switches do not stack together. Features are packaged differently
between these platforms, they use different CPU architectures, and the platforms do
not have the same scaling, making stacking with them impossible.
Q: Are the network modules shared between the Cisco Catalyst 9200 and
9300 Series switches?
A: Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series switch network modules cannot be used on Cisco
Catalyst 9200 Series switches.
Q: Can Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches act as a wired switch?
A: Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches provide connectivity for wired endpoints and
wireless endpoints by connecting wireless access points. With the SD-Access
architecture, the wired and wireless endpoints gets the same experience.
Q: What are the supported uplink modules for Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches?

3. A: Catalyst 9200 Series switches support the following uplink options:
• 4x 1 Gigabit Ethernet network module
• 4x 10 Gigabit Ethernet network module
Q: What management ports are available on the Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches?
A: Catalyst 9200 Series switches come with a 10/100/1000 Ethernet dedicated
management port on the backside of the switch right above the console port. This
port is in a separate VRF instance called “Mgmt-vrf” in order to segment the
management traffic from the global routing table of the switch.
Q: Can I use both console ports on Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches
simultaneously?
A: No. When you use the USB console, the RJ-45 console receives the output of the
USB console as well. This design allows the administrator to see when the USB
console port is in use. This capability is useful for remote administrators.
Q: Do Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches support auto-baud on the
console port?
A: No.
Q: What type of airflow do Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series switches support?
A: The airflow on Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches is “front and sides” to back
airflow.
Q: What pluggable transceiver modules do Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches support?
A: Refer to the Cisco Transceiver Module Compatibility Matrixes for a complete list:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/ interfaces-modules/transceiver-
modules/products-devicesupport-tables- list.html.
Q: What is the power consumption for Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches
A: Power consumption by SKU is listed on the data sheet and can be seen in Table3.

4. Q: What is the SKU mapping between the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X/XR and
9200 Series switches?
A: Refer to Table4.
