Cisco C9404R-E – Cisco Catalyst 9400R Series 4-Slot Chassis (Enterprise)

Cisco C9404R-E Catalyst 9400R Series 4-Slot Enterprise Modular Chassis

The Cisco C9404R-E is a four-slot modular chassis designed for the Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series enterprise switching platform. The chassis provides a flexible foundation for high-performance campus access, distribution and aggregation networks by combining dedicated supervisor-engine slots with high-density line-card slots and scalable power architecture.

The C9404R chassis contains four total module slots, including two dedicated supervisor slots and two line-card slots. It supports redundant supervisor operation and can accommodate up to four power supply modules, making it suitable for enterprise networks where modularity, resiliency and serviceability are important.

Technical Specifications

Supervisor Engine Compatibility

The C9404R platform supports a range of Catalyst 9400 supervisor engines, including the C9400-SUP-1, C9400-SUP-1XL, C9400-SUP-1XL-Y, C9400X-SUP-2 and C9400X-SUP-2XL. The exact bandwidth and feature capabilities depend on the supervisor engine, line cards and Cisco IOS XE software configuration.

Line Card Expansion

The two dedicated line-card slots allow the chassis to be configured with compatible Catalyst 9400 line cards for copper Gigabit Ethernet, multigigabit Ethernet, 1G/10G SFP/SFP+ connectivity, UPOE+ and other enterprise networking requirements. The supported port density depends on the selected line cards.

High Availability and Power Architecture

The C9404R is designed for resilient enterprise deployments. Two supervisor slots support 1+1 supervisor redundancy, while four power supply bays allow organizations to implement appropriate power redundancy or capacity configurations. Cisco documents N+1 and N+N power operating modes for the Catalyst 9400 platform.

Enterprise Networking Applications

The Cisco C9404R-E is suitable for enterprise campus core, distribution, aggregation and high-density access environments. It can be deployed in campus network closets, enterprise wiring rooms and other locations requiring a modular switching platform with scalable interfaces, redundant supervisors and flexible power options.

Serviceability and Physical Design

The 6RU chassis uses a side-to-side airflow architecture and provides front access to major removable components, including supervisor engines, line cards, power supplies and the fan tray. Cisco also supports rear access for fan-tray servicing in applicable configurations, helping simplify maintenance and cable-management planning.
