Cisco Catalyst 8300-2N2S-6T Edge Platform

The Cisco Catalyst 8300-2N2S-6T is a modular edge routing platform designed for SD-WAN and SASE deployments at branch and distributed enterprise locations. It provides consolidated routing, switching, and integrated security services in a compact 2RU form factor, eliminating the need for separate appliances at the network edge. The platform supports dual-node high-availability configurations and delivers sub-millisecond latency for business-critical applications.

Built on Cisco IOS XE software, the 8300-2N2S-6T integrates Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN capabilities with advanced threat protection, including next-generation firewall (NGFW), intrusion prevention (IPS), and advanced malware protection. The 2N2S designation indicates two network modules and two service modules, enabling flexible fabric expansion and modular security insertion without chassis redesign.

The platform is optimized for enterprises consolidating WAN edge routing and security functions, reducing total cost of ownership while improving application performance visibility and threat response at distributed sites. It supports up to 2 Gbps throughput and integrates seamlessly with Cisco SD-WAN Viptela architecture and Cisco Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions.

Ideal for

• SD-WAN edge consolidation at branch offices replacing legacy router and firewall pairs
• Distributed enterprise security with integrated NGFW and IPS at remote data center edges
• SASE infrastructure deployment for cloud-native and hybrid workforce access control
• Branch application acceleration and traffic steering with intelligent WAN path selection
• High-availability edge routing for mission-critical retail, banking, and healthcare locations
• Multi-service edge compute with containerized security and networking workloads
