Network module for Catalyst 9300
The EVESKY C9300-NM-2Q is a plug-in network module that adds two 40 Gigabit QSFP+ uplink ports to a Catalyst 9300 Series switch. It is intended for network engineers expanding aggregation or core connectivity on compatible Cisco switching platforms.
Hot-swap installation and common issues
The module slides into the Catalyst 9300 network module slot and supports hot-swap insertion without powering down the switch. Installers must ensure the QSFP+ transceivers and cables are fully seated; loose optics or mismatched cable types are the most frequent cause of link failures.
Suited for uplink expansion, not standalone use
This module suits administrators who need additional 40 Gigabit uplinks on an existing Catalyst 9300 chassis. It does not function as a standalone switch, so buyers requiring an independent switching appliance should look at a complete switch instead.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the C9300-NM-2Q module is operating correctly after installing it in my Catalyst 9300?

What ships with the C9300-NM-2Q and what must I purchase separately?
The module itself is supplied; 40 Gigabit QSFP+ transceivers and cables are not included and must be bought separately.
Which uplink option should I choose for a Catalyst 9300 that needs two 40 Gigabit ports?
The C9300-NM-2Q provides exactly two 40 Gigabit QSFP+ uplinks for the Catalyst 9300 series.
