C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y licenses one Catalyst 9300 switch with 48 ports for 5 Years. It is a Catalyst Essentials subscription for 48-port 1G copper modular-uplink models, and it needs Network Essentials on first-time orders. The Cisco Catalyst Essentials license adds Catalyst Center automation, element management, Full Flexible NetFlow, EEM and Basic Assurance while Network Essentials keeps base switching. This Catalyst 9300 license covers one switch member, so each 48-port stack member needs its own entitlement. Catalyst Center is optional for network packages, and the subscription still provides its Catalyst Center features during the term. C9300-DNX-A-48-5Y is the 5-year Advantage sibling for the same 48-port copper hosts, and its deciding difference is SD-Access, Cisco ThousandEyes, ASAc firewall rights and ISE.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y price is $3,348.02. C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Feature rights cover Full Flexible NetFlow, EEM, Simplified Campus Automation, Cisco Network Plug-and-Play, LAN automation, host onboarding, element management, Basic Assurance, and switch and wired client health monitoring. The prerequisite is Network Essentials for new orders; Network Advantage with Catalyst Essentials is a renewal combination. C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y uses Smart Licensing Using Policy on IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.2a and later. The switch reports subscription use through RUM reports within 90 days, and show license summary verifies the license state. At expiry, renew the add-on to keep add-on features, or deactivate it and reload the switch to keep base capabilities. Software Support Service covers updates, upgrades and new technology, while full hardware support needs Smart Net Total Care. A stack consumes one 48-port license per member, and each member keeps its own switch PID and serial number in the usage report.
ORM Systems offers C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y as New — a genuine Cisco license; licenses have no refurbished condition. The PO needs the PID, quantity, 5-year term, customer Smart Account and Virtual Account, and delivery is electronic within 1 business day of the PO. Order it with the switch PID, or against the expiring subscription for a renewal. Before the PO, confirm the 48-port count and the installed tier with show license summary. Delivered licenses are not returnable; order errors are corrected before delivery, terms apply. PO accepted, Net-30 for government, co-termination and multi-year quotes for UK, EU, US and MEA buyers.

A new 48-port 1G copper Catalyst 9300 order with Network Essentials needs the matching 5-year Catalyst Essentials subscription. The buyer specifies the switch PID, C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y, quantity, Smart Account and Virtual Account before the PO. Each stack member is counted separately.
An expiring Catalyst Essentials subscription on a 48-port Catalyst 9300 can renew to keep Catalyst Center automation and Basic Assurance rights. The buyer provides the expiring subscription details, verifies the installed tier with show license summary, and keeps the same port count.
A Catalyst 9300 stack standardized on 48-port 1G copper modular-uplink members needs one subscription per switch. The buyer matches the license quantity to the member count, confirms every member is a 48-port C9300 copper host, and provides the Smart Account and Virtual Account.
24-port Catalyst 9300 switches

48-port SFP Catalyst 9300 switches
The license covers 48-port 1G copper modular-uplink hosts. A 48-port 1G SFP Catalyst 9300 takes C9300-DNX-E-48S-5Y for the same tier and term.

C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y is the C9300 Cisco Catalyst Essentials, 48-port 1G Copper, 5-year term license. C9300 marks Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink hosts, DNX marks the Cisco Catalyst Software subscription, E marks Essentials, 48 marks the port count, and 5Y marks the 5-year term.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y covers one Catalyst 9300 48-port 1G copper modular-uplink switch: C9300-48T, C9300-48P, C9300-48U, C9300-48UB, C9300-48U-E-UL and C9300-48H. C9300 24-port copper models take C9300-DNX-E-24-5Y. C9300-48S takes C9300-DNX-E-48S-5Y. Catalyst 9300L and 9300LM 48-port copper models take C9300L-DNX-E-48-5Y.
A C9300-48T-E switch ships with Network Essentials, and a C9300-48T-A switch ships with Network Advantage. A 48-port 1G copper Catalyst 9300 with Network Essentials takes C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y as the 5-year Catalyst Essentials subscription.
Catalyst Essentials on Catalyst 9300 includes eight feature groups: Full Flexible NetFlow, EEM, Simplified Campus Automation, Cisco Network Plug-and-Play, LAN automation, element management, Basic Assurance, switch and wired client health monitoring. Catalyst Advantage adds ERSPAN, AVC (NBAR2), app hosting, Wireshark, ETA, IPsec, Cisco ThousandEyes, ASAc firewall, SD-Access and network assurance.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y needs Network Essentials on a first-time switch order. Without that base tier, the add-on subscription has no permitted new-order pairing. Network Advantage with Catalyst Essentials is a renewal combination, and a new Network Advantage purchase aligns with Catalyst Advantage.
Base product-level support for hardware, software and OS comes with C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y. Software Support Service provides updates, upgrades and new technology access. Hardware replacement remains on the Catalyst warranty path, and full hardware support for the perpetual stack needs Smart Net Total Care.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y runs for 5 Years. At expiry, renewal keeps the add-on features active; deactivation followed by a reload keeps the switch operating with base license capabilities. Network Essentials and Network Advantage remain perpetual and have no expiration date.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y is delivered electronically to the customer's Smart Account and Virtual Account. The order needs the Smart Account, Virtual Account, PID, quantity and term. IOS XE Amsterdam 17.3.2a and later use Smart Licensing Using Policy, and RUM reporting tracks subscription use.
C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y renews by ordering the same tier, port count and term against the expiring subscription for this platform. The buyer checks the installed tier with show license summary before the PO. A Network Advantage base can pair with Catalyst Essentials at renewal.
A Catalyst 9300 stack consumes one Catalyst Essentials subscription per member. A stack of three 48-port 1G copper modular-uplink switches needs quantity three. Each member's PID and serial number appear in usage reporting, and the active switch signs the report.
SD-Access, Cisco ThousandEyes Network and Application Synthetics, ASAc firewall rights, ISE sessions, patch management and network assurance are the difference between C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y and C9300-DNX-A-48-5Y. Choose Essentials for base automation and monitoring. Choose Advantage for those advanced 5-year rights on the same 48-port copper hosts.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for C9300-DNX-E-48-5Y.
