Powered Enterprise Access With Advanced Routing

C9300L-48PF-4X-A combines 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ access ports with four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks and Network Advantage in a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch. The 1U rack-mount Catalyst 9300L connects campus and branch workstations, IP phones, wireless access points, and other powered endpoints. Its uplink architecture uses built-in fiber cages rather than an empty bay for a removable network module. Compared with C9300L-48P-4X-A and its 505W endpoint-power allocation, the PF configuration increases available power with its default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P. Within the Catalyst 9000 family, this configuration combines Gigabit copper access with the perpetual network tier for advanced routing. The hardware choice therefore addresses both powered endpoint density and routed access requirements without changing to a modular-uplink chassis.

C9300L-48PF-4X-A price for new stock is $6,636.00, a 45.8% saving from the Cisco list price of $12,239.00. C9300L-48PF-4X-A refurb price is $7,632.45. C9300L-48PF-4X-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

176 Gbps switching capacity supports wire-speed traffic across the access and uplink interfaces. 130.95 Mpps forwarding handles 64-byte IPv4 packets, while 496 Gbps switching capacity with stacking includes the data-stack connection. 890W of shared PoE power requires endpoint allocation independently of the 30W per-port maximum. OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and IS-IS support advanced routed access without the Network Essentials OSPF ceiling. C9300L-48PF-4X-A pairs Cisco UADP 2.0 forwarding silicon with 8 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash for control-plane operation and software storage. The IPv4 allocation accommodates 32000 total routes, comprising 24000 direct routes and 8000 indirect routes. A 32000-entry MAC table supports endpoint address learning, and 16 MB of packet buffers provide queue storage. Local administration uses WebUI or CLI through the console or SSH. Three FAN-T2= fans provide active cooling. StackPower sharing is not supported, so the data stack does not provide a shared power pool between members.

Ordering

ORM Systems offers C9300L-48PF-4X-A new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, and 30-day returns in either condition; terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, and PoE output under load on every powered port; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify condition, software entitlement, and required accessories on the purchase order. For enterprise and volume orders, ORM accepts POs, provides Net-30 for government, and offers RMA with advance replacement through UK, EU, US, and MEA regional stock/RMA.

Best For

Legacy Hardware Refresh

When replacing discontinued WS-C3650-48FQ-E equipment before its October 31, 2026 support deadline, specify the replacement switch independently of the old stack. Existing Catalyst 3650 members cannot join the new fixed-uplink stack. Confirm replacement quantity, migration sequence, and separately required stacking hardware before issuing the PO.

Existing Stack Expansion

When adding a member to an existing fixed-uplink stack, match the Network Advantage license level and confirm Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM membership. C9300L-STACK-KIT2 provides two adapters and STACK-T3A-50CM; select STACK-T3A-1M when spacing requires a longer connection, and list the required kit on the PO.

Routed Gateway Consolidation

When gateway interfaces move into the access switching layer, size the design against 1000 SVIs and 4094 VLAN IDs rather than only counting physical endpoints. The licensed configuration supports VRF, VXLAN, and LISP segmentation. Confirm interface allocation, segmentation requirements, and subscription-dependent automation features before specifying software on the PO.

Not Suitable If

Multigigabit copper connections to access points

Native copper access speed stops at 1G. C9300L-48UXG-4X-A adds 12 multigigabit access ports alongside 36 Gigabit ports, retaining 48-port density and fixed 10G uplinks.

25G fiber uplinks to distribution

The fixed uplinks stop at 10G and cannot accept a removable uplink card. C9300LM-48U-4Y-A provides four 25G uplinks with 48 Gigabit UPOE access ports.

Questions & Answers

What does each part of C9300L-48PF-4X-A mean?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A identifies a Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink switch: C9300L is the series, 48 is the copper access-port count, PF identifies the full-PoE+ configuration, 4X identifies four 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks, and A identifies Network Advantage. The designation distinguishes both the hardware configuration and the perpetual network license included with the order.

How is the Catalyst 9300L managed?

Catalyst 9300L supports WebUI and CLI through the local console or SSH, plus Cisco Catalyst Center, Meraki dashboard management, and Cloud CLI. WebUI is included with the default image. Dashboard operation can use cloud-sourced or device-sourced configuration; device-sourced operation retains local configuration, while subscription entitlement and software mode determine the available management services.

How much PoE power does C9300L-48PF-4X-A provide?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A provides a shared 890W PoE+ budget across 48 powered access ports, with 30W maximum output per port. All ports cannot simultaneously draw 30W from the default single-supply configuration. Adding PWR-C1-715WAC-P or PWR-C1-1100WAC-P raises the available allocation to 1440W; confirm the required supply combination before ordering.

Which licensing paths are available for C9300L-48PF-4X-A?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A carries perpetual Network Advantage and requires Cisco DNA Advantage or Cisco Catalyst Advantage on new hardware orders, each with a three-year minimum. Both families offer Essentials and Advantage tiers; Essentials can accompany Network Advantage at renewal. Meraki migration instead uses Enterprise or Advanced licenses, starting at one year. Specify the buyer's Smart Account.

Does Network Advantage expire on C9300L-48PF-4X-A?

No, the perpetual Network Advantage license on C9300L-48PF-4X-A does not expire when a Cisco DNA or Cisco Catalyst subscription ends. Subscription-dependent features require renewal; otherwise deactivate the add-on and reload to retain base-license operation. For a certified refurbished order, specify the required software entitlements separately from hardware condition.

Can Catalyst 9300L switches stack with other Catalyst models?

Yes, Catalyst 9300L stacks with Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM members at matching license levels, but not modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 models or discontinued Catalyst 3650 switches. StackWise-320 stacks eight members. C9300L-STACK-KIT2 includes two adapters and STACK-T3A-50CM; STACK-T3A-1M provides a longer cable option for physically separated members.

Does C9300L-48PF-4X-A support advanced Layer 3 routing?

Yes, C9300L-48PF-4X-A supports Layer 3 routing with OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and IS-IS under Network Advantage. The hardware accommodates 32000 total IPv4 routes, comprising 24000 direct routes and 8000 indirect routes. That total differs from the 1000-route OSPF ceiling associated with Network Essentials; size the deployment against the selected license and forwarding allocation.

Which discontinued switches does C9300L-48PF-4X-A replace?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A replaces discontinued C1-WS3650-48FD/K9, C1-WS3650-48FQ/K9, WS-C3650-48FD-E, WS-C3650-48FD-S, WS-C3650-48FQ-E, and WS-C3650-48FQ-S switches. Those models reached end of sale on October 31, 2021, and their last date of support is October 31, 2026. Their migration does not permit stacking the old Catalyst 3650 hardware with the replacement.

Is the Catalyst 9300L discontinued?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300L. C9300L-48PF-4X-A is not the subject of the separate C9300L-STACK-KIT end-of-sale announcement. For an order that needs stacking hardware, specify C9300L-STACK-KIT2 rather than treating an accessory notice as a switch replacement requirement.

What is the difference between C9300L-48PF-4X-A and C9300L-48P-4X-A?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A has 890W of available PoE power with its default supply, compared with 505W for C9300L-48P-4X-A. The difference is the initial shared endpoint-power allocation, not a higher per-port PoE class. The PF model suits larger aggregate powered loads; the P model suits purchases sized within the smaller allocation.

What is the difference between C9300L-48PF-4X-A and C9300L-48PF-4X-E?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A includes Network Advantage, while C9300L-48PF-4X-E includes Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and IS-IS; Network Essentials limits routed-access OSPF to 1000 routes and provides EIGRP Stub. Select the A model for those advanced routing requirements or the E model for the Essentials feature set.

What is the difference between C9300L-48PF-4X-A and C9300L-48PF-4G-A?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A supplies four fixed 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks, whereas C9300L-48PF-4G-A supplies four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Both identifiers select Network Advantage. The 4X model fits an order requiring 10G distribution connections; the 4G model fits a purchase that retains Gigabit uplinks and does not require higher uplink speed.

Which power supply ships with C9300L-48PF-4X-A?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A ships with one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P and supports an optional second internal power supply. The default configuration therefore does not include power-supply redundancy. Select a second supported supply according to the required PoE allocation and failure tolerance; power supplies operate independently rather than through StackPower sharing on Catalyst 9300L.

What are the rack dimensions of C9300L-48PF-4X-A?

C9300L-48PF-4X-A occupies 1U and measures 44 mm high, 445 mm wide, and 488 mm deep with its default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P installed. Weight is 7.03 kg with that supply. Plan enclosure depth for the installed supply and cable connections, rather than using the shorter chassis-only depth when preparing the rack order.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for C9300L-48PF-4X-A?

ORM Systems offers C9300L-48PF-4X-A new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; both have 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty applies to the original owner and is limited to five years after manufacturing discontinuance is announced.
