TekBoost supplies Cisco switching for access, aggregation and core layers. Which family fits depends less on the model number than on where the switch sits in the network and what it has to power.
Individual networking products are not listed on this site yet. Availability of any particular model is confirmed by quote rather than published here, so the fastest route is to request a quote.
What to tell us
- Model or part number — the exact SKU if you have it, or the model family and the role it needs to fill.
- Port speeds and count — 1G, 10G, 25G or higher, and how many ports.
- PoE — whether you need PoE or PoE+, and the total power budget if you know it.
- Uplinks — SFP, SFP+ or QSFP, and whether you need transceivers or cables with them.
- Stacking — whether the units need to stack, and with what.
- Quantity — and whether it is a one-off or a repeat requirement.
- Compatibility — what this has to work alongside.
- Licensing — tell us which software tier your design needs. We can report the software version present on a quoted unit, but TekBoost supplies the hardware only: Cisco software licences and subscriptions are not included and are not sold by TekBoost, and must be obtained separately from Cisco or an authorised Cisco partner where they are required.
Put the technical detail in the Quote Details field and the volume in Estimated Quantity.

Buying guides
Four things decide most Cisco switch quotes, and none of them is the model number on its own:
- Catalyst 9200 vs 9300 vs 9500 — which family belongs at the access, aggregation or core layer, with the published stacking, uplink and licensing differences.
- PoE on Cisco switches — PoE, PoE+, UPOE and UPOE+, the published power budgets, and why the supplies fitted decide what you actually get.
- Uplinks and optics — fixed against modular uplinks, which module fits which platform, and how to specify transceivers.
- Meraki licensing — how co-termination and per-device licensing work, and what a used Meraki unit does not come with.
See all ranges on the networking hub. Networking equipment bought through a TekBoost quote carries our standard 3-year warranty — buying by quote rather than from an online listing makes no difference to cover — subject to the terms, exclusions and conditions on that page. Manufacturer warranty, software licensing and support entitlements are separate and are not included.
