Get advanced services in a compact form factor
The Catalyst 9500 Series is the first 40-Gb switch purpose-built for the enterprise campus. Designed for security, the Internet of Things (IoT), and the cloud, the Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series is the next generation of the most widely deployed switching platform. Catalyst 9500 fixed-core switches are a building block for Software-Defined Access, Cisco’s leading enterprise architecture.
Features and benefits
Defense across the attack continuum
The advanced capabilities of Catalyst 9500 switches help protect your organization before, during, and after an attack. Reduce your attack surface with Cisco trustworthy systems and MACSEC256 encryption. Enhance malware detection and rapid threat containment.
IoT readiness
The series delivers IoT convergence with industry-leading scale and capabilities. You get trustworthy security; support for audio-visual bridging (AVB) and the IEEE 1588 standard; service discovery; and IoT classification.
Cloud readiness
Simplify, secure, and transform your cloud environment. Cisco delivers a digital-ready approach that starts at the network edge and extends to where applications reside.
Foundational technology
These access switches support high-availability patching, graceful insertion and removal (GIR), and NSF/SSO, plus redundant, platinum-rated power supplies and fans. They also support advanced routing and infrastructure services.
Business architecture optimization services
Make the most of your network investment using performance, benchmarking, deployment, and incident trending analytics to intelligently run your network.
