Cisco Catalyst C9300-48P-A

The Cisco Catalyst C9300-48P-A (SKU C9300-48P-A) is an access switch from the Catalyst 9300 series, featuring 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 PoE+ ports to power IP endpoints such as phones and wireless access points. The Advantage license, distinct from the Essentials tier, unlocks differentiating features: VXLAN, MACsec, SSO, Security Group Tag (SGT) caching, Application Visibility and Control (AVC), and third-party IPAM integration. The switch offers 8 GB of RAM, 16 GB of flash, and supports StackWise-480 as well as StackPower for energy sharing across stacked switches. The IPv4 routing table supports up to 32,000 entries.

This model suits enterprise deployments that require both high-density PoE+ and enhanced security (MACsec, SGACL). Support for BGP, EIGRP, and MSDP also makes it well-suited for complex multilayer architectures. Genuine Cisco hardware, manufacturer warranty.
