The foundation for intent-based networking
We designed the Catalyst 9000 access portfolio to support intent-based networking. This is about building a network that recognizes your intentions. It’s a network that learns, adapts, and protects your investment by getting more efficient and more secure over time.
Integrated security
Get a network that learns and adapts to new threats, protecting itself through segmentation and encryption.
Simplified operations
Gain automated wired and wireless provisioning and configuration for easier IoT and mobility device management.
Cloud ready
Simplify, secure, and deploy with your cloud environment. Customize provisioning, automation, and monitoring with your DevOps toolkit.
A closer look at the Catalyst 9000 family
Catalyst is both wired and wireless. Cisco Catalyst 9000 switches and wireless controllers are designed for an entirely new era of networking. Now your network can learn, adapt, and evolve.
The Catalyst family includes a critical part of an integrated security architecture—one that works before, during, and after a threat occurs, to reduce attack surface, detect malware and threats, and rapidly contain those threats.
An intuitive network recognizes intent, mitigates threats through segmentation and encryption, and learns over time. Unlock opportunities, enhance security, improve business agility, and increase operational efficiencies.
Get unmatched scale with the Catalyst 9000 family. Catalyst switches offer flexibility, with speeds from 1 Gigabit Ethernet to Multigigabit 1, 2.5, 5, 10 Gbps, 25 GE, 40 GE, and 100 GE. Catalyst controllers scale for higher-density wireless networks that serve more clients, including IoT.
