C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A combines 12 Multigigabit copper downlinks with 36 Gigabit copper downlinks in a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch. The Multigigabit interfaces support 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G, while the remaining access ports support 10M, 100M, and 1G. Two built-in 40G QSFP uplinks provide the distribution handoff without a removable network module. Cisco UPOE supports powered access points, IP phones, and other compatible endpoints, with the endpoint mix constrained by available power. The Rack-Mount 1U chassis belongs to Catalyst 9300L within the Catalyst 9000 family and ships with Network Advantage. C9300L-48UXG-4X-A instead provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks for installations requiring more separate uplink interfaces.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A price for new stock is $27,124.38, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $54,248.76. C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A refurb price is $7,107.59. C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

472 Gbps switching capacity provides the standalone bandwidth figure for aggregate traffic sizing, while 351.19 Mpps forwarding performance defines the packet-rate specification. 675W of PoE budget is shared across powered endpoints with the default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, making aggregate device demand a separate sizing consideration. Full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and IS-IS support routed access configurations under Network Advantage. C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A carries 8 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash for software operation and local image storage, backed by Cisco UADP 2.0 forwarding silicon. The 32000-entry MAC table and 32000-route IPv4 total bound forwarding scale; the route total includes 24000 direct and 8000 indirect entries. StackWise-320 connects eight members with 320 Gbps of stacking bandwidth and raises switching capacity to 792 Gbps. Local administration uses the embedded WebUI or console and SSH CLI; NETCONF and RESTCONF provide programmable configuration paths. Hardware-based IPsec is not supported.
ORM Systems supplies C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A in new sealed and certified refurbished condition, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, and clean boot; PoE output is verified under load on every powered port, optics bay recognition is checked, firmware is verified, and configuration is wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantities, and required accessories on the purchase order; returns are 30 days on every condition, with terms applying. Enterprise and volume orders have PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA support in the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When replacing discontinued WS-C3650-12X48UZ-E or WS-C3650-12X48UZ-S hardware, C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A is the designated migration choice. Both predecessors reached end of sale on October 31, 2021, with support ending October 31, 2026. Reconcile existing interface configurations, endpoint requirements, and management entitlements before specifying the replacement PO.
When consolidating routed access interfaces, C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A supports 1000 switched virtual interfaces, distinct from routing-table capacity. Build the intended interface and segmentation inventory before selecting quantities, and separate forwarding scale from software entitlements. Specify the required routing and segmentation functions in the configuration schedule attached to the PO.
When adding members to an installed access stack, C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A can join Catalyst 9300L or Catalyst 9300LM members, but not modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 or Catalyst 9300X members. Inventory the installed chassis families before increasing quantities, and specify compatible member hardware rather than treating all Catalyst 9300 variants as interchangeable on the PO.
90W power for individual endpoints
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A supplies 60W Cisco UPOE per port, not 90W. C9300X-48HX-A supports 90W UPOE+ and also changes the configuration to 48 Multigigabit downlinks with modular uplinks.
100G uplinks to distribution
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A has fixed 40G uplinks. C9300X-48HX-A with separately ordered C9300X-NM-2C provides 100G uplinks and also carries 48 Multigigabit downlinks rather than a mixed-speed copper layout.
Power sharing between stacked switches
Catalyst 9300L does not support Cisco StackPower, so its data stack cannot pool power between members. Modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 or Catalyst 9300X models provide stack-level power sharing.

C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A identifies a Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink switch with 48 UPOE copper ports and Network Advantage. C9300L is the series prefix; 48 is the access-port count; UXG identifies the UPOE configuration with 12 Multigigabit and 36 Gigabit ports; 2Q specifies two fixed 40G QSFP uplinks; A indicates Network Advantage.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A runs Cisco IOS XE and supports console or SSH CLI, embedded WebUI, SNMP, NETCONF, RESTCONF, and Cisco Catalyst Center management. The Catalyst 9300 family also offers Meraki dashboard management with cloud- or device-sourced configurations. The selected software release, management mode, and subscription govern the cloud capabilities.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300L. C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A is distinct from the discontinued C9300L-STACK-KIT accessory, whose end-of-sale date was November 3, 2025. C9300L-STACK-KIT2 replaces that accessory; the stacking-kit retirement does not establish a retirement date for the switch hardware.
ORM Systems offers C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year of warranty. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime warranty covers the original owner and is limited to 5 years after manufacturing discontinuance is announced.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A includes perpetual Network Advantage and requires subscription selection when ordered new. Cisco Catalyst or Cisco DNA Essentials and Advantage start at 3 years, with Advantage required initially. Cisco Networking Subscription offers Cisco Switching Essentials and Cisco Switching Advantage with a 36-month minimum. Smart Account entitlements are separate from ORM hardware condition.
Cisco Meraki Enterprise and Advanced subscriptions for the Catalyst 9300 series start at 1 year, with 3-, 5-, 7-, and 10-year terms also offered. Meraki software licensing requires the Meraki dashboard. This is a separate software and management choice from the Network Advantage base-license configuration carried by C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A replaces discontinued WS-C3650-12X48UZ-E and WS-C3650-12X48UZ-S switches, which both reached end of sale on October 31, 2021. The predecessors' last date of support is October 31, 2026. Existing interface configurations, endpoint power requirements, and management entitlements are separate migration considerations rather than parts of the replacement designation.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A provides a shared 675W PoE budget with one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P, increasing to 1775W with two PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supplies. Cisco UPOE supports 60W per powered port. Neither supply configuration permits every access port to draw that maximum simultaneously, so the endpoint inventory must remain within the aggregate allocation.
The 48-port UPOE switch C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A provides two fixed 40G QSFP uplinks rather than a removable uplink bay. No uplink network module is required. Compatible QSFP link components must match the peer interface, cabling medium, and required distance; the fixed architecture does not provide a network-module upgrade path.
Eight members form a Catalyst 9300L StackWise-320 stack with 320 Gbps of stacking bandwidth. C9300L-STACK-KIT2 supplies two adapters and the 0.5m STACK-T3A-50CM cable. Longer connections use STACK-T3A-1M or STACK-T3A-3M. Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM stack members must use the same network license level.
Yes, C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A supports Layer 3 routing with full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and IS-IS under Network Advantage. Its IPv4 hardware total is 32000 routes, comprising 24000 direct and 8000 indirect entries. The total is not the indirect-route subset, and the Network Essentials OSPF limit is not this PID's license configuration.
Yes, C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A supports an optional second internal power supply, but one PWR-C1-1100WAC-P ships by default rather than a redundant pair. The default AC input range is 115-240V. Measured consumption reaches 919.11W during the 100% PoE-loading, no-traffic test at 115V AC; that figure is not the PSU's output rating.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A supports 60W Cisco UPOE per port, while C9300L-48PF-4X-A provides 30W PoE+ per port. Aggregate budgets still limit simultaneous powered-port loading. C9300L-48PF-4X-A suits PoE+ endpoint requirements; C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A accommodates compatible endpoints requiring the higher per-port UPOE allowance, subject to total power allocation.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A includes Network Advantage, while C9300L-48UXG-2Q-E includes Network Essentials. Network Advantage adds BGP, full EIGRP, and advanced segmentation; Network Essentials includes routed-access OSPF limited to 1000 routes. Advanced routing requirements align with the A model, while basic routed-access configurations align with the E model's license scope.
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A carries two fixed 40G QSFP uplinks, while C9300L-48UXG-4X-A carries four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. The difference changes both the uplink connector and the number of separate interfaces. The 4X model serves four-link 10G handoffs; the 2Q model serves installations terminating their distribution connections at 40G.
