C9407R-96U-BNDL-A Seven-Slot 96-Port Starting Point

C9407R-96U-BNDL-A is Cisco's documented Catalyst 9400 seven-slot bundle with a supervisor, two C9400-LC-48U line cards and an Advantage license selection. The two 48-port UPOE 10/100/1000 RJ-45 cards provide a 96-port initial access configuration; this is not a claim that every line-card slot is populated.

Chassis capacity after the bundle

C9407R has five line-card slots and two dedicated supervisor slots at positions 3 and 4. Starting with two line cards leaves three line-card positions for an approved expansion plan. Compare C9410R-96U-BNDL-1A when the design requires eight line-card slots or a larger long-term port-density envelope.

Power is configured separately

The chassis provides eight power-supply bays, but the required power supplies and regional AC cords must be selected for the actual PoE load and redundancy design. Cisco's current ordering guide allows supported AC and DC supply choices and requires a cord selection for each configured AC supply. Do not infer the delivered supply count from the 96U bundle name.

License and Smart Account check

The -A selection denotes the Advantage tier. Cisco requires the network stack plus a Cisco DNA or Catalyst software subscription and a Smart Account during purchase. Confirm the chosen subscription family, term, virtual account and support model in the final CCW configuration rather than treating “DNA-A LIC” as a perpetual cloud entitlement.

Receiving and expansion acceptance

Verify the C9407R chassis, supervisor PID, both C9400-LC-48U cards, fan tray, accessory kit, power supplies, cords and license entitlements against the CCW BOM. Record occupied slots, IOS XE release, supervisor redundancy decision, available PoE budget and uplink optics before acceptance.
