This article provides technical data on Fiber Transceivers and stacking accessories compatible with Meraki devices.

Cisco Meraki offers branded SFP modules, and while we do not prevent third-party accessories from functioning, users should conduct their own tests to ensure proper compatibility

Cisco Optics Compatibility

Many of the Cisco Optics that are compatible* with the native Catalyst Switch platform (ex. C9300-24S) are also compatible with the corresponding Cloud Managed/Monitored Catalyst Switch Platform (ex.: C9300-24S-M) including the MS390.

• This includes: 1/10/25/40/100G SFP/QSFP fixed wavelength fiber and copper transceivers,

• Please reference the TMGmatrix for Cisco's official optic-to-device compatibility list. Click this LINK for a filtered list of all optics for C9300/C9300L/C9300X platforms

• These compatible optics are covered under the existing Cisco Warranty terms available here

• Meraki support is able to assist with troubleshooting, identifying, and root-causing the issues where the Cisco Optics are being used with their cloud managed/monitored catalyst Switch

• However, if the root cause indicates that the customer is eligible for an RMA, support will continue to follow established procedures for Cisco branded optics, which may include collaborating with Cisco TAC

Note: Validation of dashboard reporting of Cisco Optics is ongoing. In the event Meraki Support identifies an issue with a Cisco Optic, a support case may be filed for further investigation.

Other non-M accessories

Other accessories such as fan spares, power stacking cables, stackwise cables and power supplies are compatible* between non-M and -M models.

Some Examples :

STACK-T1-50CM is compatible with STACK-T1-50CM-M
CAB-SPWR-30CM is compatible with CAB-SPWR-30CM-M
FAN-T2 is compatible with FAN-T2-M
PWR-C1-1100WAC-P is compatible with PWR-C1-1100WAC-P-M

* Compatibility/ Compatible: The hardware accessory has been determined to operate effectively with the listed switch platforms, and will receive troubleshooting assistance from Cisco Meraki Support in the event of an issue experienced with the hardware. However, in the event of a hardware replacement requirement an additional step may be required to facilitate the RMA which would require collaboration with Cisco TAC under the Cisco warranty terms. Meraki’s hardware warranty and return policy and Meraki EOL policy does not apply to Cisco Optics, Cables and accessories in any shape or form.

Note: regarding switches series

If not specified otherwise, all switches below under "Compatibility" columns, include any model within the series, for example, MS120 on the table represents:

MS120-24-HW
MS120-24P-HW
MS120-48-HW
MS120-48LP-HW
MS120-48FP-HW

Note: The MA-MOD-4x10G for the MS390 is end of sale. This includes the C9300-NM-4X, which is also supported but will not be available in a -M SKU.

*Note: The SFP28/QSFP28 modules will be orderable March 2024 with software support in CS16.7. 25Gbps Dashboard support is slated for CS17 firmware. 25Gbps optics can be used in CS16.8, but should be considered 'Beta'.

**Note: The C9300X-NM-2C-M modules will operate at 40Gbps with software support in CS17 firmware. For 100G operation, IOS-XE 17.15+ is required.

***Note: The number of Network Module ports are limited when C9300X-NM-8Y are used with the C9300X-48HXN models. Only 6 of the 8 ports will be available on a C9300X-48HXN switch.

C9300-NM-2Y-M / C9300-NM-2Y modules are supported only by C9300-24S/48S switches in firmware CS16.7. Support for the rest of the C9300-M portfolio is supported in CS16.8 firmware.
