C1000FE-48T-4G-L is a managed Layer 2 switch with 48 Fast Ethernet data ports and four fixed Gigabit uplink connections: two dedicated SFP ports and two SFP/RJ-45 combo ports. The access ports support 10/100 Mbps and do not supply PoE. This Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series model uses a rack-mount chassis and a LAN Lite-equivalent feature set for small-business and branch-office switching. The combo connections provide a choice of copper or fiber media, not additional independent uplinks. The discontinued C1000FE-48P-4G-L is the closest powered sibling, adding PoE+ to the same access-port density. Select this configuration for externally powered endpoints whose access connections do not require Gigabit Ethernet.
C1000FE-48T-4G-L price for new stock is $1,389.15, a 8.8% saving from the Cisco list price of $1,523.24. C1000FE-48T-4G-L refurb price is $502.94. C1000FE-48T-4G-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

17.6 Gbps switching capacity provides the aggregate switching bandwidth for the Fast Ethernet configuration. 13.09 Mpps forwarding handles the published 64-byte packet workload. C1000FE-48T-4G-L includes 512 MB DRAM and 256 MB flash for Cisco IOS operation and image storage. The address table accommodates 16000 unicast MAC entries, while 256 active VLANs support traffic segmentation. Fast Ethernet security scale includes 384 IPv4/MAC ACEs and 256 IPv6 ACEs, so access-policy sizing must remain within those limits. STP, RSTP and MSTP provide loop-control options, and LACP supports link aggregation. Single IP Management is unavailable on the Fast Ethernet models; each unit is managed independently. 23.03W consumption at 100% traffic provides a workload-specific figure for electrical planning rather than a power-supply rating.
Specify C1000FE-48T-4G-L in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, together with quantity and required accessories, before issuing the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and the configuration is wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units up to 1 year, and every condition has 30-day returns with terms applying. ORM Systems accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, and supports regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA for enterprise and volume orders.

When replacing discontinued WS-C2960+48TC-S, WS-C2960+48TC-S++ or WS-C2960R+48TC-S hardware, this model is a named migration option. An existing configuration should not be treated as a deployment-ready replacement configuration. Before the PO, specify the required condition and check the interface assignments, uplink media and retained feature requirements.
When equipment must be configured before shipment to a site, CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 provides the console-cable option for local access. Include the staging accessories on the equipment request rather than leaving them to the receiving site. Before the PO, specify the console connection and the country-dependent power cable.
When a branch installation may start from an unheated room, the minimum ambient temperature for a cold start is 0°C. Treat startup conditions separately from the operating range of equipment already running. Before the PO, check the site's startup temperature and specify an installation environment that meets that constraint.
Gigabit Ethernet endpoint connections
The access ports stop at 100 Mbps. Gigabit uplinks do not increase endpoint link speed, so this model does not meet a requirement for native Gigabit access connections.
Switch-powered phones or access points
The data ports provide no PoE output. Endpoints requiring power from the access switch need a powered switching configuration rather than this non-PoE model.
Single-address multi-switch management
Single IP Management is restricted to the Gigabit Ethernet models. This Fast Ethernet configuration cannot satisfy a requirement to administer multiple linked switches through one management address.

C1000FE-48T-4G-L identifies a Catalyst 1000 Fast Ethernet data switch: C1000FE identifies the Fast Ethernet range, 48T identifies 48 data ports, and 4G identifies four Gigabit uplink connections. The configuration has two dedicated SFP uplinks and two combo uplinks, with LAN Lite-equivalent Cisco IOS functionality.
C1000FE-48T-4G-L supports the Cisco Configuration Professional web UI, CLI access through the RJ-45 console, SSH or Telnet, and SNMP management. An external USB Bluetooth dongle also enables browser or CLI access. SSH and encrypted SNMP management require the appropriate cryptographic software image.
C1000FE-48T-4G-L reached end of sale on April 30, 2025, and its last date of support is April 30, 2030. Routine software maintenance ended April 30, 2026; planned vulnerability support ends April 30, 2028. Cisco names no replacement product for this model.
ORM Systems offers C1000FE-48T-4G-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty covers the original end user, with eligible Cisco support ending April 30, 2030.
C1000FE-48T-4G-L is a named replacement for WS-C2960+48TC-S, WS-C2960+48TC-S++ and WS-C2960R+48TC-S. Those predecessor models reached end of sale on October 31, 2021. This replacement is itself discontinued, so an exact-model refresh should include condition, inventory availability and the remaining support horizon in the purchase decision.
No, C1000FE-48T-4G-L provides data connectivity without PoE output on its access ports. The model cannot supply operating power to phones, cameras or access points through their Ethernet connections. Specify separate endpoint power arrangements when retaining this configuration rather than treating its uplinks as a power option.
The Catalyst 1000 Fast Ethernet configuration has four Gigabit uplink connections: two dedicated SFP connections and two SFP/RJ-45 combo connections. Each combo connection uses either copper or SFP media, not both simultaneously. The uplinks are fixed, so no removable uplink card is needed to provide those connections.
No, C1000FE-48T-4G-L cannot use Single IP Management because that feature is limited to Catalyst 1000 Gigabit Ethernet models. Linking Fast Ethernet units through their uplinks does not create the supported single-address management arrangement. Plan individual management access for each unit rather than specifying a stacking kit.
No, the 48-port Fast Ethernet data switch uses one fixed power supply rather than redundant internal power modules. The published consumption is 23.03W at 100% traffic. Confirm the regional power cable on the order; an additional internal PSU is not an available redundancy configuration.
C1000FE-48P-4G-L supplies PoE+ with a shared 370W budget, while C1000FE-48T-4G-L supplies no PoE. Both models are discontinued. For exact-model replacement requirements, the data model suits externally powered endpoints, while the powered model suits endpoints needing Ethernet-delivered power within its shared budget.
C1000FE-48T-4G-L has 48 Fast Ethernet access ports, while C1000FE-24T-4G-L has 24. Both models are discontinued. For legacy replacement orders, the 48-port configuration accommodates a larger endpoint count on one unit; the 24-port configuration suits a smaller connection schedule without changing the Fast Ethernet access class.
C1000-48T-4G-L supports 10/100/1000 Mbps access connections, while C1000FE-48T-4G-L supports 10/100 Mbps access connections. Both are discontinued. For exact legacy replacements, the Fast Ethernet model suits retained 100 Mbps endpoint links, whereas the Gigabit model suits endpoint connections that must negotiate at 1 Gbps.
