Cisco C9300X-NM-2C Catalyst 9300X 2 x 100G/40G Network Module

C9300X-NM-2C gives a Catalyst 9300X switch two uplinks that run at 100G or 40G. Cisco lists it as the "Catalyst 9300X 2x 100G/40G Network Module" in the same table as the 8x Multigigabit, 8x25G and 4x100G 9300X modules.

Cisco states that 9300X network modules are supported only on the Catalyst 9300X models, so this part does not fit a standard C9300 switch. Cisco also notes that the number of usable module ports is limited when a C9300X-NM module is used in a C9300X-48HXN.

Unlike the four-port C9300X-NM-4C, which Cisco ties to three switch models, the two-port module is not restricted by that footnote. Cisco's reliability table rates it at 9,411,520 hours MTBF.

Fit check: the switch model must begin with C9300X-; on a 48HXN, check how many module ports your software release enables. The C9300X-NM-4C doubles the 100G ports on the 48HX, 48TX and 24Y, and the C9300X-NM-8Y is the 25G choice. See the Cisco Catalyst 2960, 3850 and 9300 hub for the switches.
