Cisco C9300 DNA Cloud Essential 24-Port 3-Year License | Enterprise — C9300-DCL-E-24-3Y

Keep your Catalyst 9300 access layer aligned to a defined operating model with Cisco DNA Cloud Essential licensing. This 24-port, 3-year term license is designed for organizations that want structured network management, clearer lifecycle planning, and a cleaner path to maintaining policy consistency across the switch estate. For infrastructure teams, the value is in reducing operational drift. A term license gives procurement and operations a fixed renewal horizon, while the Cloud Essential tier supports the baseline capabilities needed to manage a modern campus access environment. It is a practical fit when you need dependable software coverage for a specific 24-port deployment and want to avoid overbuying features that will not be used. This license is well suited to enterprise refreshes, standardized branch rollouts, and controlled expansions where the switch platform is already defined. It helps keep the network on a known support and licensing cadence, which matters when uptime, auditability, and budget discipline all sit on the same decision table.
