C9300L-48P-4G-E Overview

C9300L-48P-4G-E is a managed Layer 3 access switch with 48 fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports, four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, PoE+ power delivery, 1U rack mounting, and the Cisco Catalyst 9300L series identity. It gives access closets a fixed-uplink Catalyst platform for powered endpoint aggregation where 1G fiber handoff is specified and Network Essentials is the required software image. The switch belongs to the fixed-uplink 9300L family rather than the modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 family, so uplink capacity is selected by SKU at purchase and no network-module bay is populated later. That distinction matters for refresh planning because optics, stack kits, and uplink speed are matched to the fixed model number before deployment. C9300L-48P-4X-E is the closest uplink sibling, differing by four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks instead of this model's four fixed 1G SFP uplinks.

104 Gbps switching capacity delivers the standalone fabric for the 48 Gigabit access ports and fixed 1G uplinks. 77.38 Mpps forwarding rate supports line-rate campus access forwarding, while 424 Gbps stacked switching capacity and 315.48 Mpps stacked forwarding rate apply when the switch operates in a StackWise-320 domain. 505W PoE budget serves powered endpoints from the default 715W AC power supply, with allocation governed by device draw rather than every port using maximum PoE+ at once. Network Essentials supports Layer 2 switching and routed access features including RIP, EIGRP Stub, OSPF with 1000 routes, PBR, VRRP, QoS, 802.1X, sampled NetFlow, SPAN, and RSPAN. The Cisco UADP 2.0 ASIC provides programmable allocation of Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding, ACL, and QoS entries. C9300L-48P-4G-E carries 8 GB DRAM, 16 GB flash, a 32000-entry MAC table, a 16 MB packet buffer, Ethernet management, console access, and USB 2.0 image-loading support.

At the enterprise access tier, C9300L-48P-4G-E connects IP phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and wireless access points, then hands traffic northbound through fixed 1G SFP uplinks. StackWise-320 supports an eight-switch Catalyst 9300L or 9300LM stack with C9300L-STACK-KIT or C9300L-STACK-KIT2 hardware, keeping multiple closet switches under one management and control plane. The 1U rack-mount chassis fits standard access racks and keeps copper endpoint density concentrated in a single switch position. ORM Systems supplies this model new and certified refurbished, and refurbished units are tested for boot status, PoE delivery, RJ-45 port operation, SFP uplink detection, fan health, power supply health, and IOS XE management access.

C9300L-48P-4G-E Use Case

Powered Endpoint Access Layer

C9300L-48P-4G-E sits in the campus access layer and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and access points on 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Network teams place VLANs, QoS markings, 802.1X authentication, and routed access boundaries close to endpoints while using the Network Essentials image for switching fundamentals. The 505W default PoE budget guides endpoint allocation across the closet for high-density refreshes. The result is a dense powered edge with predictable policy placement and controlled power delivery per access block.

Access To Distribution Handoff

The switch occupies the wiring closet edge and forwards aggregated endpoint traffic northbound through four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Engineers map fiber optics, trunks, routed links, or EtherChannel designs to the distribution layer while keeping all 48 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ ports dedicated to local access. C9300L-48P-4G-E removes modular uplink selection from the bill of materials, which standardizes repeated closets around fixed 1G handoff without upgrading every distribution link. The result is a clearer access-to-distribution design for sites where Gigabit uplinks match traffic demand.

Stacked Closet Management Plane

Several compatible Catalyst 9300L or 9300LM switches form a StackWise-320 access block when a closet needs more powered ports under one control plane. C9300L-48P-4G-E contributes 48 PoE+ copper ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks per member, while the stack uses C9300L-STACK-KIT hardware and matching license levels. Operations teams standardize IOS XE software, port templates, uplink roles, and PoE budgets before adding members. The result is expanded access density with unified switch administration and consistent fault handling across the closet.
