Built for security, IoT and Cloud. The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series switches are next-generation enterprise-class switches for the core and aggregation layer, supporting full programmability and serviceability. Based on an x86 processor, the Catalyst 9500 Series is Cisco's leading purpose-built platform for enterprise core and aggregation layer switching, designed for security, IoT and cloud. The switches include a 4-core, 2.4 GHz processor, 16 GB DDR4 memory and 16 GB internal memory. The Catalyst 9500 Series is the industry's first purpose-built line of 40 Gigabit Ethernet switches designed for the enterprise campus. These switches provide unmatched table scale (MAC/route/ACL) and buffering for enterprise applications.
The Catalyst 9500 Series includes non-blocking 40G Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP) and 10G Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus (SFP ) switches with granular port density that meet the diverse needs of the campus. The switches support advanced routing and infrastructure services; software-defined access edge capabilities; and network system virtualization with Cisco StackWise virtual technology, which are critical for their placement in the campus core. The platform also supports all foundational high-availability capabilities, such as patches, Graceful Insertion and Removal (GIR), Cisco Nonstop Forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO), and platinum-rated redundant power supplies and fans. |

Advanced Security
Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA): leverages machine learning capabilities to identify and take action on network threats or anomalies, including detection of malware in encrypted traffic and detection of distributed anomalies. In addition, ETA can detect vulnerable implementations in encrypted traffic. Support for AES-256 with the powerful 256-bit MACsec encryption algorithm, available on all models. Trusted systems: support for Secure Unique Device Identification (SUDI) for Plug and Play, enabling a tamper-proof device identification capability that protects zero-touch provisioning by allowing your device to present a server certificate in order to join your network.
