Enterprise Copper Access for Separately Powered Endpoints

C9300-48T-1A is a Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports, Network Advantage, and data-only connectivity for separately powered endpoints. The Catalyst 9300 chassis occupies one rack unit and uses a modular uplink bay; the base configuration does not include an uplink module. C9300-NM-8X provides eight 10G/1G SFP+ connections, while C9300-NM-2Q provides two 40G connections. Within the Catalyst 9000 family, this configuration keeps the uplink choice separate from the access-port hardware. C9300-48P-1A is the corresponding PoE+ sibling for powered endpoints. The copper access connections use RJ-45 interfaces with four-pair Category 5e cabling, allowing the access cabling and distribution-facing module to be specified separately.

C9300-48T-1A price for new stock is $14,793.63. C9300-48T-1A refurb price is $6,273.75. C9300-48T-1A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

256 Gbps switching capacity defines the standalone switching ceiling for sizing aggregate traffic. 190.47 Mpps forwarding provides a separate packet-rate limit when assessing small-packet workloads. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, and IS-ISv4 support dynamic routing under Network Advantage; OSPFv3 and BGPv6 provide IPv6 routing. C9300-48T-1A carries 8 GB DRAM and 16 GB flash, separating runtime working memory from software-image storage. The Cisco UADP 2.0 ASIC supports configurable allocation of forwarding, ACL, and QoS resources, so resource allocation must match the intended configuration. 32000 total IPv4 entries comprise 24000 direct entries and 8000 indirect entries; the overall figure is not a capacity promise for dynamically learned routes alone. Three FAN-T2= fan modules provide active cooling with N+1 redundancy, rather than fanless operation. Cisco IOS XE also supports local administration and centralized management, with the available cloud-management functions dependent on software release and licensing.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies C9300-48T-1A new sealed or certified refurbished; new units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and both conditions have 30-day returns, with terms applying. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, PSU status, fan status, and module bay recognition, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify condition, required accessories, and software entitlements on the purchase order. PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume purchasing, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Best For

Routed Access Refresh

When an access refresh requires numerous routed interfaces rather than only switched endpoint connections, the 1000-SVI ceiling becomes a sizing consideration. VLAN identifiers extend to 4094, but VLAN availability does not remove the interface limit. Specify the intended SVI count and resource allocation before the purchase order.

Existing Stack Extension

When extending an existing stack, member compatibility takes precedence over matching the front-panel port count. Members must use the same license level, and higher-scale variants cannot join this stack. Specify STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M, or STACK-T1-3M according to the required connection length before ordering the additional member.

Laboratory Acceptance Staging

When laboratory acceptance includes large-frame traffic, the 9198-byte jumbo-frame limit belongs in the test plan before production configuration is approved. A staging order should distinguish required traffic tests from ordinary link checks. Specify the frame sizes, software configuration, and acceptance criteria on the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

PoE power for connected endpoints

C9300-48T-1A provides data connectivity without endpoint power. C9300-48P-1A supplies PoE+ on 48 access ports for orders that require powered Ethernet connections.

Multigigabit copper access connections

C9300-48T-1A has Gigabit Ethernet access ports. Faster uplink modules do not turn those fixed copper access connections into 2.5G, 5G, or 10G ports.

100G uplinks from this chassis

C9300-48T-1A supports modular uplinks through 40G using C9300-NM-2Q. Catalyst 9300X network modules are restricted to Catalyst 9300X models and cannot provide 100G connectivity here.

Questions & Answers

What does each part of C9300-48T-1A mean?

C9300-48T-1A identifies a Catalyst 9300 with 48 data-only Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and Network Advantage. C9300 identifies the series, 48 the access-port count, T the data-only copper configuration, and 1A the federal-only one-year Network Advantage offering. Uplinks are modular and ordered separately.

How is C9300-48T-1A managed?

C9300-48T-1A is managed through Cisco IOS XE CLI over the local console or SSH, embedded WebUI, Cisco Catalyst Center, or supported Meraki dashboard management. Dashboard configuration modes and cloud capabilities depend on software release and licensing. WebUI comes with the default image rather than requiring an additional device-management license.

Which licensing paths are available for C9300-48T-1A?

C9300-48T-1A is the federal-only one-year Network Advantage offering. Standard Cisco DNA Essentials/Advantage and Cisco Catalyst Essentials/Advantage subscriptions start at three years; Cisco Switching Essentials/Advantage starts at 36 months; Meraki Enterprise/Advanced starts at one year. These are distinct licensing paths, not interchangeable descriptions of the federal bundle.

Does the Network Advantage license on C9300-48T-1A expire after one year?

No, the perpetual Network Advantage license associated with C9300-48T-1A does not expire after one year. The federal offering’s one-year term must be distinguished from the permanent network license and separate subscription entitlements. A Smart Account is required for purchase and holds the applicable software entitlements.

Which uplink modules can C9300-48T-1A use?

C9300-48T-1A supports C9300-NM-4G for four 1G ports, C9300-NM-8X for eight 10G ports, C9300-NM-2Y for two 25G ports, C9300-NM-2Q for two 40G ports, or C9300-NM-4M for four multigigabit copper ports. The base switch ships without an uplink module, and fiber connections also require compatible transceivers.

How many C9300-48T-1A switches can form a stack?

StackWise-480 stacks eight C9300-48T-1A members using 480 Gbps stack bandwidth. STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M, and STACK-T1-3M are the supported data-stack cable options. Members must use the same license level; Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink models and higher-scale Catalyst 9300 variants cannot join this stack.

Does C9300-48T-1A support Layer 3 routing?

Yes, C9300-48T-1A supports Layer 3 routing under Network Advantage, including full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, OSPFv3, and BGPv6. The hardware accommodates 32000 total IPv4 entries, comprising direct and indirect entries. That total is not a promise of capacity for 32000 dynamically learned routes.

What power supply ships with C9300-48T-1A?

C9300-48T-1A ships with one PWR-C1-350WAC-P power supply and accepts a second internal supply for redundancy. A second PWR-C1-350WAC-P= is a separately ordered spare, not an included component. Additional internal power does not add PoE output to the data-only access ports.

What is the lifecycle status of the Catalyst 9300?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300. C9300-48T-1A is the federal-only Network Advantage one-year offering within that series. The one-year commercial term describes the offering, not a scheduled hardware retirement date or a one-year limit on the perpetual network license.

What is the difference between C9300-48T-1A and C9300-48P-1A?

C9300-48P-1A adds PoE+ endpoint power, while C9300-48T-1A has data-only access ports. Both variants provide 48 ports and Network Advantage. The data-only model suits separately powered endpoints; the PoE+ variant suits orders that must deliver power over the access cabling.

What is the difference between C9300-48T-1A and C9300-48T-1E?

C9300-48T-1A has Network Advantage, whereas C9300-48T-1E has Network Essentials. Network Advantage includes BGP, full EIGRP, IS-IS, and full OSPF; Network Essentials limits OSPF to 1000 routes. The Advantage offering suits advanced routing requirements; Essentials suits routed access within its feature limits.

What is the difference between C9300-48T-1A and C9300-24T-1A?

C9300-48T-1A provides 48 data access ports, while C9300-24T-1A provides 24. Both are Catalyst 9300 data-only Network Advantage variants. The larger model suits a purchase requiring more endpoint connections in one chassis; the smaller model suits orders with fewer copper access connections.

What condition and warranty options does ORM Systems offer for C9300-48T-1A?

ORM Systems offers C9300-48T-1A new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco’s separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty is limited to five years after product discontinuance is announced.
