C9300LM-48U-4Y-E is a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 48 Gigabit copper ports, Cisco UPOE and four fixed 25G uplinks. Network Essentials supplies the included network feature tier, while the Rack-Mount 1U enclosure uses the Catalyst 9300LM mini chassis. The integrated uplink architecture has no removable network-module bay. Within the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series, this configuration combines powered endpoint connections with a shorter chassis footprint. C9300LM-48T-4Y-E is the nearest data-only sibling for installations that do not require endpoint power. The powered configuration serves IP phones, wireless access points and other compatible network-powered devices without changing the fixed Gigabit access speed.

296 Gbps switching capacity accommodates traffic across the access and uplink interfaces. 220.22 Mpps forwarding supports the published small-packet traffic profile. A 790W shared PoE budget supplies endpoint power through the default PWR-C6-1KWAC, so aggregate allocations must stay within that budget. OSPF supports up to 1000 routes under Network Essentials; EIGRP Stub, PBR and VRRP provide additional routed-access functions without granting the advanced routing tier. C9300LM-48U-4Y-E uses UADP 2.0 forwarding silicon, 8 GB of DRAM and 16 GB of flash for the control plane and local software storage. The hardware supports 32000 MAC entries and a total IPv4 capacity of 32000 routes, distinct from the licensed OSPF limit. StackPower is not supported.
ORM Systems offers C9300LM-48U-4Y-E new sealed and certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended coverage for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units; Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage separately follows original-customer ownership and its discontinuance bound. 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, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and required accessories on the PO; returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. For enterprise and volume orders, PO is accepted, government buyers receive Net-30, and RMA with advance replacement is available across UK, EU, US and MEA regions.

Replaces | WS-C3650-48FQM-L; end of sale May 31, 2023. |
When replacing a discontinued WS-C3650-48FQM-L, this configuration is the named migration destination. The predecessor ended sale on May 31, 2023, with support ending May 31, 2028. Review the existing configuration and accessory inventory, then specify the required hardware condition and migration components before the PO.
When the endpoint inventory includes devices requiring 60W Cisco UPOE, procurement must distinguish individual port capability from aggregate power availability. Gather each endpoint's required allocation and simultaneous operating demand rather than relying on device count alone, then specify the supply configuration against that total before ordering.
When a rollout requires powered endpoints to remain energized during software reloads, Perpetual PoE maintains power through the reload. Fast PoE starts endpoint power delivery before the operating system finishes loading after power restoration. Include both behaviors in the staging acceptance plan before releasing the production PO.
Multigigabit speeds on copper access ports
The copper access ports stop at 1G. C9300LM-48UX-4Y-E instead provides eight 10G Multigigabit ports and forty 1G ports, retaining the same access-port density.
BGP without a network license upgrade
Network Essentials excludes BGP, full EIGRP and IS-IS. C9300LM-48U-4Y-A includes Network Advantage for buyers requiring those advanced routing functions on the same hardware configuration.
90W power for individual endpoints
Cisco UPOE provides 60W per port, not 90W. C9300-48H-E supplies Cisco UPOE+ capability with 48 Gigabit access ports, but changes to modular uplinks.

C9300LM-48U-4Y-E identifies a Catalyst 9300 mini switch: C9300LM names the mini family, 48 specifies 48 copper ports, U denotes UPOE, 4Y denotes four 25G uplinks, and E selects Network Essentials. The access ports operate at Gigabit speed, while the uplink architecture is fixed rather than modular.
Catalyst 9300LM supports local console access, CLI over SSH and the embedded WebUI; Cisco Catalyst Center provides centralized management through the applicable software entitlement. WebUI is included with the default image. Specify the intended management method and associated entitlement when preparing the hardware and software order.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 9300LM. C9300LM-48U-4Y-E remains a fixed-uplink configuration with Network Essentials. Hardware lifecycle and software-release retirement are separate considerations, so specify the intended software release and its maintenance requirements independently when preparing a new hardware order.
ORM Systems offers C9300LM-48U-4Y-E new sealed with up to 3-year extended coverage or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage is subject to original-customer ownership. Returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. Cisco warranty support is limited to five years after a discontinuance announcement.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E combines perpetual Network Essentials with a term entitlement. Cisco DNA and Cisco Catalyst offer Essentials and Advantage with three-year minimums; Cisco Networking Subscription offers Cisco Switching Essentials and Cisco Switching Advantage with a 36-month minimum. New orders require matching entitlements and a Smart Account.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E replaces the discontinued WS-C3650-48FQM-L. The older model ended sale on May 31, 2023, and its last date of support is May 31, 2028. Use the replacement relationship to start migration planning, then review the existing configuration and accessory requirements before ordering the new hardware.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E provides a shared 790W PoE budget with one PWR-C6-1KWAC; two PWR-C6-1KWAC supplies raise the available budget to 1790W. Cisco UPOE supports 60W per port. The aggregate budget does not support maximum power on every port simultaneously, so size the order against the endpoint allocation total.
Yes, C9300LM-48U-4Y-E uses StackWise-320, which stacks eight members at 320 Gbps. Order C9300L-STACK-KIT2, including STACK-T3A-50CM, or select STACK-T3A-1M or STACK-T3A-3M for longer connections. Catalyst 9300L and Catalyst 9300LM partners must use matching network license levels; modular-uplink models cannot join this stack.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E powers connected endpoints with Cisco UPOE, while C9300LM-48T-4Y-E is data-only. The powered model suits buyers placing network-powered devices on the access connections. The data-only model suits buyers whose connected equipment has its own power source and does not require power delivery from the switch.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E includes Network Essentials, while C9300LM-48U-4Y-A includes Network Advantage. Network Advantage adds BGP, full EIGRP, IS-IS and advanced routing capabilities. The Essentials configuration suits limited routed-access requirements; the Advantage configuration suits buyers who need those additional routing functions included with the hardware order.
C9300LM-48U-4Y-E has 48 Gigabit copper access ports, while C9300LM-24U-4Y-E has 24. Both configurations provide powered access with Network Essentials. Select the 48-port model when the endpoint inventory needs greater single-chassis density; select the 24-port model when the required connection count fits the smaller port allocation.
