Really, it's all about mounting 8 125mm Railguns (might be easier with named guns, such as the Scout variety, depending on your skill set).
The idea is to kill all the frigates as quickly as possible before they get in range to start shooting at you. 8 guns can take out most Level 1 mission frigates in 1 or 2 volleys.
Put an armor repairer and a couple of armor hardeners in the lows, specific to whatever types of rats you are fighting. These reduce the amount of damage you take to your armor, and you can turn the repairer on to repair the damage.
There isn't really a "best" setup, as this ship isn't a great PvE ship to start with. It can kick butt in a lot of L1 missions, but don't bother taking it to L2 missions. The cruisers will chew it up and spit it out.
Once you get to that point, the best setup for a Catalyst involves 4 or 5 salvagers and 3 or 4 small tractor beams. It makes a great salvage ship to clean up after you're done with a mission.

Firstly :There is no "best" setup for any ship.
What works in one situation wont work in another.
However. to get you started try:
8 x 125mm railgun I
1 x 1mn afterburner I
1 x stasis webifier I
1 x Small Armor Repairer I
2 x Capacitor Power Relay I
You will need Engineering at level 4 to fit that.
If you dont have that, switch one or both of the Capacitor Power Relays for a Power Diagnostic System I, or Reactor Control I
Reasoning:
125mm railguns.
good tracking
good damage
middle power usage
afterburner
speed, your guns are ranged rweapons, being faster than the NPC = u dictate range
stasis webifier
Slows down the target if they get within 10km, which improves your hits as it helps your tracking
small armor repairer
Repairs any armour damage that you recieve
Capacitor Power Relays
Improves capacitor recharge to run your armor repairer longer
Power Diagnostics
Improves power grid and a slight increase in capacitor recharge and size
Reactor control
Increases powergrid
