Network Module Description C9300-NM-4G This module has four 1G SFP module slots.
  • Page 2 Safety Warnings This section includes the installation cautions and warnings. Translations of the safety warnings are available in the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches. Read this section before you install a network module. Caution Proper ESD protection is required whenever you handle equipment.
  • Page 3 Note The switch generates logs when you insert or remove a network module with SFP/SFP+/SFP28/QSFP+ slots. Use only supported network modules and Cisco pluggable transceivers. Each module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. The network module is hot-swappable. If you remove a module, replace it with another network module or a blank module.
  • Page 4 Installing a Network Module Network Module Port Configurations Verify the correct orientation of your module before installing it. Incorrect installation can damage Caution the module. Caution Do not install the network module with connected cables or installed pluggable transceivers. Always remove any cables and transceiver modules before you install the network module.

  • Page 11 Installing a Network Module Installing a Cisco Pluggable Transceiver Module • When you insert several pluggable transceiver modules in multiple switch ports, wait for 5 seconds between inserting each module. This will prevent the ports from going into error disabled mode. Similarly, when you remove a pluggable transceiver module from a port, wait for 5 seconds before reinserting it.
