Cisco Catalyst 9300 48-port PoE+ switch

The Cisco Catalyst 9300 C9300-48P-E is a managed enterprise switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports supporting Power over Ethernet Plus. It provides a stacking bandwidth of 480 Gbps and an x86 CPU architecture designed to host containers and run third-party applications natively within the switch.

Suited for managed enterprise networks needing PoE+

This switch suits IT teams deploying Software-Defined Access architectures who require unified management of wired and wireless networks with group-based policies and context-based analytics. It is not suited for buyers who need a simple plug-and-play unmanaged switch or who require higher-speed downlink ports on every interface.

48 PoE+ ports with 480 Gbps stacking

The single specification that decides fit is the 48 ports delivering 10/100/1000Base-T connectivity with PoE+ power sourcing capability combined with the industry-leading 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth for high-density campus deployments.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 48-port PoE+ model or a non-PoE version for my access layer?

The C9300-48P-E provides 48 ports that deliver both data and PoE+ power, so you can connect phones, cameras and access points without separate injectors; a non-PoE model would require extra power gear for those endpoints.

What does the 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth mean when the switch is live in a rack?

It allows up to eight Catalyst 9300 units to behave as a single logical switch with 480 Gbps of back-plane throughput, keeping inter-member traffic off the uplinks and preserving port bandwidth for endpoints.

The uplinks use which standard and what practical limit does it set?

Uplinks are modular and support up to 10 Gbps per port, so the maximum uplink throughput is capped by the specific uplink modules you install rather than the base switch itself.
