Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series End-of-Life & EOSL Dates

CURRENT, NO EOL ANNOUNCEDCisco has published no end-of-sale or end-of-service-life date for this product.

The Catalyst 9300 is Cisco's lead stackable access platform of the Catalyst 9000 family, spanning four sub-families (9300X, 9300, 9300L and 9300LM) across more than thirty fixed and modular-uplink models. Stacking runs from StackWise-320 on the L models to a terabit of stack bandwidth on the 9300X, in stacks of up to eight switches with StackPower resiliency.

Uplink modules reach 100G, Multigigabit density reaches 448 ports per stack, and UPOE+ delivers 90W to as many as 384 ports in a full stack. The 9300X's UADP 2.0sec ASIC terminates line-rate 100G IPsec in hardware, and application hosting runs on the switch itself with dedicated AppGig ports.

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series is Cisco’s current flagship stackable access switch line and the vendor-named replacement for the Catalyst 3650 and 3850. Cisco has announced no end-of-sale or end-of-service-life for 9300 hardware; only DNA license terms and older IOS XE releases have EOL notices.

Cisco has not announced end-of-sale or end-of-service-life for the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. On the 249 of its products where Cisco has published both dates, support after end-of-sale runs in line with the 60-month norm: 96% of Cisco's pairs land within 3 months of exactly 60.

This is Cisco's published history on other products. It does not predict a date for the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. EOSL.ai publishes a lifecycle date for this model only when Cisco does, and this page changes the day that happens. Every pair behind these figures comes from a Cisco bulletin linked on that product's own page. How this is measured →

Retired OS trains for this hardware

The software running on a device ages on its own clock. These Cisco OS trains tied to this product by Cisco's own bulletins have announced end-of-life dates — a unit capped on one of them can be unpatched even while the hardware is still supported.

Options from here

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series is a current Cisco product with no end of life announced. Options to plan around, in rough priority:

No action needed yet

The vendor lists it as a current product and has announced no end of life.

Fine for new deployments

No end-of-life notice from the vendor as of the last check. Recheck at purchase.

Keep firmware current

Stay on a supported software release.

Watch for EOL

We flag this page the moment the vendor announces end-of-life.

Independent and informational. EOSL.ai sells no hardware and no maintenance, and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the role the asset plays.
