Product Features
Technical Overview
The C9200CX-8UXG-2XH-E operates as a fully manageable Layer 3 switch, supporting a comprehensive suite of networking standards including IEEE 802.3at (PoE+), IEEE 802.3af (PoE), IEEE 802.1x for network access control, and IEEE 802.3ad for link aggregation. Its 240-watt PoE budget ensures ample power for connected devices, while the built-in power supply accepts 120V AC or 230V AC input for global deployment flexibility.
The switch's 10GbE ports support both 10GBase-X and 10/100/1000Base-T technologies, allowing use with cost-effective twisted pair cabling for distances up to 100 meters or optical fiber for longer runs. The two SFP+ slots provide high-speed uplink connectivity, enabling seamless integration into larger network topologies. With a power consumption of 315 watts under full load, the switch is designed for energy efficiency, and its fanless operation ensures silent performance in office or retail environments.
Key Product Advantages

Two SFP+ slots enable fiber or copper uplinks, providing options for high-bandwidth backbone connections or long-distance links. This modularity future-proofs the network and supports diverse media types.
Versatile Mounting Options
Rack-mountable, DIN rail mountable, wall mountable, and under-table installation options allow deployment in telecom closets, industrial settings, retail spaces, or offices without dedicated rack space.
Deployment / Use Cases
The C9200CX-8UXG-2XH-E is engineered for environments where space, power, and connectivity density are critical considerations. Its combination of features makes it suitable for several specific deployment scenarios.
In small to medium business networks, this switch can serve as an aggregation point for workstations, servers, and PoE devices, with Layer 3 routing enabling efficient traffic management between VLANs. For retail or hospitality deployments, the compact form factor and multiple mounting options allow installation in tight spaces while providing power to POS systems, digital signage, and security cameras.
Branch Office Networking
Ideal for connecting multiple devices in remote offices with limited IT space. The 10GbE ports handle bandwidth-intensive applications, while PoE supports phones and access points.
Edge Computing & IoT Deployments
Supports IoT devices and edge servers with low-latency 10GbE connections. The fanless design ensures reliable operation in environments where dust or noise is a concern.
Physical Profile
Measuring just 1.73 inches in height, this compact switch fits into shallow network cabinets or can be mounted on walls, DIN rails, or under tables. The slim profile maximizes port density per rack unit while maintaining accessibility for cable management. The robust metal construction ensures durability in various environments, and the environmentally compliant design meets RoHS and WEEE directives.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (43.94 mm), 10.60" (269.24 mm), 9.60" (243.84 mm), 7 lb (3175.15 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE?
The switch has a 240-watt PoE budget, which can power multiple PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) devices simultaneously. The exact number depends on the power requirements of each connected device. For example, it could support approximately 8-12 typical VoIP phones (7-15W each) or 4-6 wireless access points (30-60W each). The eight 10GbE UPoE ports automatically negotiate power delivery with each connected device.
What types of uplink connections are supported?
The two SFP+ expansion slots support both fiber and copper uplink modules. You can use SFP+ transceivers for 10GbE fiber connections (multimode or single-mode) or SFP+ direct-attach copper cables for short-range connections. This flexibility allows integration into existing fiber infrastructure or cost-effective copper uplinks to servers or core switches within the same rack.
Can this switch be used for VLAN routing?
Yes, as a Layer 3 switch, it supports inter-VLAN routing, allowing traffic to flow between different VLANs without requiring a separate router. This enables network segmentation for security or organizational purposes while maintaining performance. The switch also supports routing protocols for dynamic routing in more complex network topologies.
What are the mounting options for this switch?
The switch offers four mounting options: standard 19-inch rack mounting using included brackets, DIN rail mounting for industrial environments, wall mounting with appropriate hardware, and under-table mounting for space-constrained offices. The compact 1U height design makes it suitable for shallow network cabinets, while the versatile form factor accommodates various deployment scenarios.
Does this switch require active cooling?
No, the switch features a fanless design, meaning it operates silently without moving parts for cooling. This makes it ideal for environments where noise is a concern, such as offices, classrooms, or retail spaces. The passive cooling design also reduces points of failure and minimizes dust accumulation, contributing to long-term reliability.
What management features are available?
As a fully manageable switch, it supports comprehensive management through CLI (Command Line Interface), web interface, and network management platforms like Cisco DNA Center. Features include VLAN configuration, QoS (Quality of Service), port monitoring, link aggregation, and security protocols like IEEE 802.1x for network access control. The switch also supports SNMP for integration with network monitoring systems.
