Modular Uplink Access Switching for Powered Campus Endpoints

C9200-48P-A is a managed Layer 3 access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and PoE+ endpoint power. An empty modular uplink bay accepts C9200-NM-4G for SFP connections or C9200-NM-4X for SFP+ connections, so neither card is included in the base configuration. The rack-mount 1U chassis belongs to the Catalyst 9200 series within the Catalyst 9000 family and serves campus or branch access for IP phones, wireless access points and other standards-compliant powered devices. Network Advantage supplies the perpetual network tier for advanced routing, segmentation and multicast requirements. C9200-48T-A is the corresponding data-only sibling for endpoints with separate power. The access interfaces do not provide multigigabit Ethernet, and the higher-speed uplink modules reserved for multigigabit models cannot be installed.

C9200-48P-A price for new stock is $4,087.65, a 52.9% saving from the Cisco list price of $8,674.00. C9200-48P-A refurb price is $1,046.85. C9200-48P-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

176 Gbps switching capacity and 130.95 Mpps forwarding rate define the standalone traffic envelope; stacking raises switching capacity to 336 Gbps. 740W of shared PoE power governs the endpoint inventory with the standard PWR-C6-1KWAC, rather than guaranteeing maximum power at every powered port. OSPF, EIGRP and IS-ISv4 support advanced unicast routing, while OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 extend routed operation to IPv6; PIM-SM and SSM cover multicast requirements. C9200-48P-A combines 4 GB DRAM with 4 GB flash to run Cisco IOS XE and retain the system image. Its UADP 2.0 Mini ASIC provides programmable forwarding, with 6 MB packet buffers for transient traffic queues. Address resources accommodate 32000 MAC entries and 14000 total IPv4 routes, split between 10000 direct and 4000 indirect routes. WebUI and CLI allow local configuration, while NETCONF and RESTCONF expose automation interfaces. 899.99W under the full-PoE, 115V AC test condition with C9200-NM-4G provides a loaded-power planning reference, not the rating of the installed PWR-C6-1KWAC.

Ordering

Specify C9200-48P-A as new sealed or certified refurbished, with condition, quantity and accessories identified on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output verified under load on every powered port; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. ORM warranties are up to a 3-year extended term for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. For enterprise and volume purchases, ORM Systems accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government and provides RMA with advance replacement through regional operations in the UK, EU, US and MEA.

C9200-48P-A Use Case

Access Layer Endpoint Handoff

C9200-48P-A sits in an access closet and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and access points on 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Network teams place VLANs, QoS policies, authentication controls, and PoE budgets at this layer, then hand northbound traffic to distribution through the selected uplink module. The Network Advantage image supports routed access and segmentation services where the design requires them. The result is a dense powered endpoint edge with consistent policy enforcement across every powered access port.

Distribution Uplink Handoff

The switch occupies the access edge and presents aggregated endpoint traffic to distribution switches through a separately ordered 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ uplink module. Engineers match the module, optics, and fiber plant to the upstream design, then configure trunks, routed links, or EtherChannel according to the campus architecture. C9200-48P-A keeps fixed copper access ports separate from modular uplink selection, which simplifies refresh planning. The result is cleaner access-to-distribution migration without replacing endpoint cabling or disturbing established endpoint VLAN assignments.

Stacked Closet Expansion Point

Several compatible Catalyst 9200 switches form a StackWise-160 access block when a wiring closet needs more powered copper ports under one management plane. C9200-48P-A contributes 48 PoE+ access ports per unit, while the stack presents unified management, shared policy, and coordinated uplink planning to the operations team. Engineers standardize software images, stacking cables, power budgets, and uplink modules before adding members. The result is higher port density with simpler switch administration and controlled access-layer growth across repeated closet builds and support workflows.

Best For

High-Altitude Branch Rollouts

When a branch rollout includes high-altitude sites, the Catalyst 9200 supports normal operation at 3000 m only within -5°C to 40°C. Cold starts require at least 0°C. Confirm elevation, temperature control and startup conditions for each equipment room, then specify site quantities and rack ventilation requirements before releasing the purchase order.

VLAN Gateway Migration

When an access refresh moves VLAN gateways onto the switch, the Catalyst 9200 provides a ceiling of 512 switched virtual interfaces. Keep the gateway inventory separate from physical port planning and from subscription features. Specify the required routing feature set and count gateway interfaces before committing the purchase order.

License Evaluation Staging

When a staging purchase is intended to validate configurations before production ordering, Catalyst 9200 base and add-on licenses offer a 90-day evaluation period. An expired evaluation cannot be reactivated by reloading the switch. Separate evaluation access from permanent entitlement requirements, then specify production licenses and the staging-unit count before raising the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

25G or 40G uplinks

C9200-48P-A accepts 1G or 10G uplink modules, not C9200-NM-2Y or C9200-NM-2Q. C9200-48PXG-A supports those cards and also changes eight downlinks to multigigabit.

More than four virtual networks

C9200-48P-A supports four virtual networks for SD-Access. C9200-48PB-A increases that limit to 32, but cannot share a stack with four-virtual-network C9200 models.

Questions & Answers

What does each part of C9200-48P-A mean?

C9200-48P-A identifies a Catalyst 9200 switch with 48 PoE+ access ports and Network Advantage. C9200 is the modular-uplink Catalyst 9200 model group, 48 is the port count, P identifies the PoE+ configuration, and A selects Network Advantage. The part number does not include an uplink-speed code.

How is C9200-48P-A managed?

C9200-48P-A supports WebUI, console or SSH CLI, Cisco Catalyst Center, Meraki dashboard management, and NETCONF/RESTCONF automation. Meraki can use cloud-sourced or device-sourced configuration; device-sourced mode keeps configuration local. A Bluetooth management connection also supports WebUI or CLI when a compatible dongle is attached.

Is the Catalyst 9200 end of sale?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9200. Software-release and license retirements are separate from retirement of the switch hardware. Keep the hardware purchase, installed software version and subscription entitlement aligned, rather than treating a software end-of-sale announcement as the retirement date for the complete switch.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for C9200-48P-A?

ORM Systems offers C9200-48P-A new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty covers original-customer ownership, limited to five years after discontinuance is announced.

Which licensing paths are available for C9200-48P-A?

C9200-48P-A includes perpetual Network Advantage. Cisco DNA Essentials and Cisco DNA Advantage, or Cisco Catalyst Essentials and Cisco Catalyst Advantage, start at three years; matching Advantage subscriptions are required for this PID's new orders. Cisco Networking Subscription offers Cisco Switching Essentials and Cisco Switching Advantage with a 36-month minimum. Use a Smart Account; base licensing survives add-on expiration.

Which older switches does C9200-48P-A replace?

C9200-48P-A uses the C9200-48P replacement hardware base for WS-C2960XR-48FD-HC, WS-C2960XR-48FPD-I, WS-C2960XR-48FPD-L, WS-C2960XR-48FPS-I, WS-C2960XR-48FPS-L, WS-C2960XR-48PD-HC, WS-C2960XR48FPDI++ and WS-C2960XR48FPSI++. Those discontinued models reached end of sale on October 31, 2022, with support ending October 31, 2027. Specify the required uplink card and Network Advantage entitlement for the replacement configuration.

How much PoE power does C9200-48P-A provide?

C9200-48P-A provides a shared 740W PoE+ budget with its standard PWR-C6-1KWAC supply, and each powered port supports 30W. Adding PWR-C6-1KWAC/2 raises the available budget to 1440W. The single-supply configuration cannot power all 48 ports at their maximum simultaneously, so total endpoint demand must govern the power-supply order.

Which uplink modules fit C9200-48P-A?

C9200-48P-A has a modular uplink bay rather than built-in fiber uplinks. C9200-NM-4G adds four 1G SFP ports, while C9200-NM-4X adds four 1G/10G SFP+ ports. Order the chosen card and compatible optics separately; C9200-NM-2Y and C9200-NM-2Q are restricted to multigigabit C9200 models.

How many Catalyst 9200 switches can form a stack?

C9200-48P-A supports StackWise-160, which stacks eight members at 160 Gbps with matching Network Advantage licenses. C9200-STACK-KIT includes two adapters and STACK-T4-50CM; STACK-T4-1M and STACK-T4-3M provide longer cable options. C9200L switches and enhanced-virtual-network models cannot mix with the four-virtual-network C9200 group.

Does C9200-48P-A support Layer 3 routing?

C9200-48P-A supports Layer 3 routing with Network Advantage, including OSPF, EIGRP, IS-ISv4, OSPFv3, EIGRPv6 and PIM-SM. The hardware accommodates 14000 total IPv4 routes, comprising 10000 direct and 4000 indirect routes. Use the Network Advantage entitlement when advanced unicast routing or multicast operation forms part of the purchase requirement.

What power supply ships with C9200-48P-A?

C9200-48P-A ships with one PWR-C6-1KWAC AC supply, and its second internal power bay is optional rather than populated by default. PWR-C6-1KWAC/2 is the secondary AC order option. PWR-C6-715WDC= is also supported as a spare DC option, including mixed AC/DC operation with Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 or later.

What rack space does the Catalyst 9200 48-port PoE+ switch require?

C9200-48P-A is a rack-mount 1U switch with a 445 mm chassis width and 44 mm height. Chassis depth is 350 mm, increasing to 391 mm in the fully assembled configuration. Allow additional cable clearance when confirming cabinet fit, power connections and access behind the installed switch.

What is the difference between C9200-48P-A and C9200-48T-A?

C9200-48P-A supplies PoE+ on its 48 access ports, whereas C9200-48T-A is a 48-port data-only switch. Both use the modular-uplink Catalyst 9200 format and Network Advantage. Choose C9200-48P-A for powered endpoints; C9200-48T-A suits endpoints that use separate power.

What is the difference between C9200-48P-A and C9200-48P-E?

C9200-48P-A includes Network Advantage, while C9200-48P-E includes Network Essentials. Both have 48 PoE+ access ports and modular uplinks. Network Advantage adds advanced routing, segmentation, multicast and security capabilities. C9200-48P-A suits those requirements; C9200-48P-E suits installations whose feature set remains within Network Essentials.

What is the difference between C9200-48P-A and C9200-24P-A?

C9200-48P-A provides 48 PoE+ access ports, while C9200-24P-A provides 24 PoE+ access ports. Both belong to the modular-uplink Catalyst 9200 group and include Network Advantage. C9200-48P-A serves purchase requirements needing the higher connection count; C9200-24P-A fits a smaller endpoint inventory without changing the network-license tier.
