C9300-48UXM-1E is a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 36 copper downlinks reaching 2.5G and 12 multigigabit copper downlinks reaching 10G. Cisco UPOE supports 60W at an individual port, subject to the shared power allocation. The empty modular uplink bay accepts C9300-NM-4G for 1G connections, C9300-NM-8X for 10G, C9300-NM-2Y for 25G, C9300-NM-2Q for 40G, or C9300-NM-4M for multigigabit copper connections. Network Essentials supplies the included network license, and the Catalyst 9300 chassis occupies one rack unit. The combination serves campus access connections for powered wireless access points, phones, and building endpoints. C9300-48P-E provides PoE+ rather than Cisco UPOE for endpoints with lower individual power requirements. Uplink connectivity depends on the separately selected module rather than built-in uplink ports.
C9300-48UXM-1E price for new stock is $23,493.26. C9300-48UXM-1E refurb price is $9,553.95. C9300-48UXM-1E is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

580 Gbps switching capacity establishes the standalone switching envelope, while 431.54 Mpps forwarding provides the packet-rate ceiling for traffic planning. 490W of shared PoE capacity requires endpoint-load allocation; two PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supplies increase the available allocation to 1590W. OSPF with up to 1000 routes, EIGRP Stub, RIP, static routing, PBR, VRRP, and PIM Stub with up to 1000 multicast routes provide routed-access functions; BGP is not included. C9300-48UXM-1E combines 8 GB of DRAM with 16 GB of flash for system operation and image storage. The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series uses UADP 2.0 forwarding silicon, and this multigigabit configuration provides 32 MB of packet buffering for traffic queues. The hardware total of 32000 IPv4 entries includes direct and learned routes without removing the OSPF license cap. WebUI and SSH CLI provide local administration. 809.5W measured with PWR-C1-1100WAC-P and C9300-NM-8X at 115V AC under full PoE test loading provides a configuration-specific power-planning reference, not a ceiling for every upgraded configuration.
ORM Systems offers C9300-48UXM-1E new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output verified under load on every powered port, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the condition, supply configuration, and required accessories on the purchase order. POs are accepted, Net-30 is available for government, and enterprise volume orders can coordinate regional stock and RMA handling across the UK, EU, US, and MEA, including RMA with advance replacement.

During a wireless access refresh, existing Category 5e or Category 6 cabling can support Multigigabit Ethernet, subject to the speed and cabling requirements of each link. Treat the installed copper plant as part of qualification rather than assuming every run supports the fastest setting; specify endpoint link requirements and cable checks before the PO.
When an existing switch group needs shared power rather than only a shared data plane, Cisco StackPower pools installed supplies for supplemental power or redundancy. CAB-SPWR-30CM= and CAB-SPWR-150CM= are power cables, not data-stack cables. Specify the intended power-sharing mode, cable reach, and supply mix before ordering the group.
Before a multi-site rollout, software activation needs an ownership and account workflow separate from physical staging. Smart Licensing registration requires an active Smart Account, and license entitlements are deposited into that account. Specify the receiving organization, account assignment, and software entitlement scope on the volume PO.
90W power for individual endpoints
C9300-48UXM-1E is limited to 60W Cisco UPOE per port. C9300-48H-E supports 90W UPOE+ but uses Gigabit downlinks; its shared power allocation still requires sizing.
BGP under the included network license
Network Essentials does not include BGP. C9300-48UXM-A provides Network Advantage for advanced routing on the same access-port configuration; the software entitlement must match the ordered tier.
10G across every copper access port
C9300-48UXM-1E limits 10G access to 12 ports; the other 36 ports reach 2.5G. The mixed-speed configuration does not provide uniform 10G downlinks.

C9300-48UXM-1E identifies a federal-only Catalyst 9300 48-port multigigabit switch offered with Network Essentials in a one-year package. C9300 denotes the series, 48 denotes the access-port count, UXM identifies the mixed multigigabit configuration, and 1E distinguishes the federal one-year offer. Confirm the software entitlement accompanying the hardware order separately.
C9300-48UXM-1E is managed through the local console, SSH CLI, or embedded WebUI; licensed deployments can also use Cisco Catalyst Center or Meraki dashboard management. Dashboard operation depends on the selected software and configuration-source mode. The Network Essentials hardware offer does not by itself include every cloud-management entitlement.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300. C9300-48UXM-1E is the federal-only one-year Network Essentials offering, so hardware lifecycle and the duration of a particular software entitlement are separate matters. An expiring software subscription is not a hardware end-of-support milestone.
ORM Systems supplies C9300-48UXM-1E new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco separately provides an Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty for the original owner, bounded by its end-of-life policy.
Catalyst 9300 supports Cisco DNA Essentials/Advantage and Cisco Catalyst Essentials/Advantage subscriptions with three-year minimums, Cisco Switching Essentials/Advantage through Cisco Networking Subscription with a 36-month minimum, and Meraki Enterprise/Advanced with a one-year minimum. C9300-48UXM-1E is a separate federal-only one-year Network Essentials offer; specify the intended entitlement explicitly.
C9300-48UXM-1E provides a shared 490W PoE budget with one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P or 1590W with two PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supplies. Individual ports support 60W Cisco UPOE, but neither allocation permits all 48 ports to draw that maximum simultaneously. Size the aggregate endpoint load and power priorities before selecting the supply configuration.
C9300-48UXM-1E accepts C9300-NM-4G, C9300-NM-4M, C9300-NM-8X, C9300-NM-2Y, and C9300-NM-2Q in its uplink bay. C9300-NM-4G supplies four 1G ports, C9300-NM-8X eight 10G ports, C9300-NM-2Y two 25G ports, and C9300-NM-2Q two 40G ports. C9300-NM-4M supplies four multigigabit copper ports; match optics to the selected fiber module.
C9300-48UXM-1E supports StackWise-480 with eight members and 480 Gbps stacking bandwidth. Use STACK-T1-50CM, STACK-T1-1M, or STACK-T1-3M cables and match the network license level across members. Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM cannot join this stack, and higher-scale Catalyst 9300 models require their own higher-scale stack.
Yes, C9300-48UXM-1E supports Layer 3 routed access with Network Essentials, including OSPF for up to 1000 routes, EIGRP Stub, RIP, static routing, PBR, VRRP, and PIM Stub. The 32000-entry hardware IPv4 total is separate from that OSPF limit. BGP and full EIGRP require Network Advantage.
C9300-48UXM-1E uses PWR-C1-1100WAC-P as its default primary supply and has a second internal bay for an optional supply. A second PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supports dual-supply operation. For power sizing, distinguish the normal combined PoE allocation from the load that must remain powered after losing a supply.
C9300-48UXM-1E supports 60W Cisco UPOE at an individual port, whereas C9300-48P-E supports 30W PoE+. Both require endpoint draw to fit the shared power allocation rather than relying on port count alone. C9300-48P-E suits standard PoE+ endpoints; C9300-48UXM-1E serves endpoints requiring the higher individual power class.
C9300-48UXM-A includes Network Advantage, whereas C9300-48UXM-1E includes Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds BGP, full EIGRP, IS-IS, and advanced segmentation; Network Essentials limits OSPF to 1000 routes. C9300-48UXM-1E suits routed access within those limits; C9300-48UXM-A suits deployments requiring the additional routing and segmentation features.
C9300-48UXM-1E has 48 access ports, whereas C9300-24UX-E has 24. The difference changes the number of endpoint connections available from one chassis. C9300-24UX-E suits locations sized for fewer connections; C9300-48UXM-1E suits requirements for greater access-port density, subject to the shared power allocation required by the connected endpoints.
No, C9300-48UXM-1E can continue operating with its licensed Network Essentials base capabilities after an expired Cisco DNA add-on is deactivated and the switch reloads. Continuing the add-on capabilities requires renewal. The one-year offer designation should not be treated as proof that an active subscription accompanies a particular hardware order.
The Catalyst 9300 multigigabit configuration in C9300-48UXM-1E occupies 1U and measures 44 mm high by 445 mm wide. Depth with PWR-C1-1100WAC-P installed is 564 mm, and weight is 9.34 kg. Allow additional room for power connections and the required cabling when checking cabinet fit.
