C9300X-48TX-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300X managed Layer 3 stackable switch for dense multigigabit copper access, built with 48 fixed 10GBASE-T RJ-45 data ports that negotiate 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M speeds. The switch uses an empty modular uplink bay, so C9300X-NM-8M, C9300X-NM-8Y, C9300X-NM-2C, or C9300X-NM-4C modules are selected separately for multigigabit, 25G/10G/1G SFP28, or 100G/40G uplink designs. The base chassis should not be described as having installed SFP or QSFP uplinks until the selected module is included in the order. Non-PoE operation distinguishes it from C9300X-48HX-A, which keeps the same 48-port 10G/mGig copper access profile but adds Cisco UPOE+ endpoint power. The 1U rack-mount form factor places the platform in the Catalyst 9300X series for enterprise access closets and compact aggregation points.
1760 Gbps switching capacity delivers nonblocking access bandwidth for dense 10GBASE-T copper runs feeding distribution or core uplinks. 1309 Mpps forwarding rate supports high packet-rate campus traffic, while 2760 Gbps stacked switching capacity and 2232 Mpps stacked forwarding rate support larger StackWise-1T blocks. No PoE budget applies because this data-only model leaves endpoint power to external supplies, injectors, or separate powered switches. BGP, EIGRP, HSRP, IS-IS, OSPF, VRF, VXLAN, LISP, Cisco TrustSec, SGT, MPLS, and mVPN are documented under the Network Advantage tier. C9300X-48TX-A also carries 16 GB DRAM, 16 GB flash, a 32 MB packet buffer for the 48-port 10G multigigabit model class, 32000 MAC address scale, 1000 SVIs, 4094 VLAN IDs, and 9198-byte jumbo frames. The UADP 2.0sec ASIC also enables hardware-based 100G IPsec when the required HSEC authorization is ordered. Management runs through Cisco IOS XE with CLI, SNMP, NETCONF, RESTCONF, telemetry, Cisco Catalyst Center, and policy integration through Cisco ISE.
C9300X-48TX-A sits at the enterprise access layer where locally powered workstations, lab endpoints, servers, security appliances, and externally powered wireless uplinks need high-speed RJ-45 handoff. StackWise-1T stacking creates an eight-member Catalyst 9300X stack under a single management and control plane, and the 44 mm chassis occupies 1U in a standard rack. ORM Systems supplies this switch new and certified refurbished for projects that need Cisco Catalyst 9300X density without UPOE+ purchasing cost. Refurbished units are tested for boot status, management access, fan and power-supply health, copper port operation, and recognition of any bundled C9300X uplink module before dispatch. Buyers can request pricing for the chassis alone or a full bill of materials with network modules, optics, stack cables, power cords, secondary power supply, software terms, and warranty coverage. Enterprise and volume orders benefit from matched condition, consistent software tier, and accessory bundling across repeated closet builds.
C9300X-48TX-A price is $7,424.00. C9300X-48TX-A is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

C9300X-48TX-A sits in the wiring closet and terminates 48 locally powered RJ-45 endpoints on 10GBASE-T multigigabit copper ports that negotiate 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M speeds. Engineers place workstation, lab, server-access, and externally powered wireless backhaul VLANs on the access layer, then carry northbound traffic through a selected C9300X uplink module. Network Advantage supports routed access, segmentation, and policy enforcement for the closet. The 715W AC default supply supports the data-only chassis role rather than endpoint power budgets. The network gains dense copper speed without adding endpoint power design constraints.
C9300X-48TX-A occupies the access edge and presents aggregated multigigabit copper traffic to distribution through a separately ordered C9300X network module. Engineers select C9300X-NM-8Y for 25G or 10G fiber handoff, C9300X-NM-2C for 100G or 40G uplinks, or another supported module according to the upstream design. The base switch keeps the 48 10G/mGig RJ-45 downlinks independent from uplink selection. Trunks, routed links, and EtherChannel policies stay tied to the chosen module speed. The network gains a cleaner migration path from copper access growth to higher-speed distribution capacity.
Several Catalyst 9300X switches form a StackWise-1T operations block when repeated closets need shared control, consistent software, and high copper density. C9300X-48TX-A contributes 48 data-only 10G multigigabit ports per member, while the stack presents one management plane and coordinated uplink design. Engineers align Network Advantage licensing, StackWise cables, IOS XE versions, member numbering, and uplink modules before production cutover. Cross-stack EtherChannel places redundant uplinks on different members for resilient distribution handoff. The operations team gains simplified administration and predictable expansion across high-speed access closets.

C9300X-48TX-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300X stackable access switch for high-speed copper networks. It provides 48 data-only 10GBASE-T multigigabit ports supporting 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M speeds, with a modular uplink slot and Network Advantage licensing. It fits campus access or compact aggregation designs that need dense RJ-45 throughput without PoE.
C9300X-48TX-A identifies a Catalyst 9300X switch with 48 copper data ports and the Network Advantage software tier. The TX designation marks the data-only 10G/mGig copper variant, while the A suffix indicates Network Advantage rather than Network Essentials. Buyers should order separate uplink modules, optics, stacking cables, and software subscriptions according to the final design.
C9300X-48TX-A is a stackable enterprise switch, not a standalone router or firewall appliance. It runs Cisco IOS XE and supports campus switching features, Layer 3 routing functions, segmentation, QoS, access control, and stack operation. The platform also supports 100G hardware-based IPsec on Catalyst 9300X models when the required HSEC authorization is ordered.
C9300X-48TX-A sits in the Catalyst 9300X family, above standard Catalyst 9300 and Catalyst 9300L access switches for multigigabit density, StackWise-1T stacking, and 100G hardware IPsec support. It is the 48-port data-only 10GBASE-T model, positioned beside PoE models such as C9300X-48HX-A and mixed-speed models such as C9300X-48HXN-A.
C9300X-48TX-A provides 48 copper data ports on the base chassis. Each downlink is a 10GBASE-T multigigabit interface supporting 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, and 100M operation over RJ-45 copper cabling. Uplinks are not fixed on the base switch, so a compatible Catalyst 9300X network module must be selected separately.
C9300X-48TX-A is listed under the C9300X-48TX performance line with 1,760 Gbps switching capacity and 1309 Mpps forwarding rate. With stacking, Cisco lists 2,760 Gbps switching capacity and 2232 Mpps forwarding rate. Those figures make the switch suitable for dense multigigabit access blocks with high northbound bandwidth requirements.
No, C9300X-48TX-A is a data-only switch and does not provide PoE, PoE+, UPOE, or UPOE+ power to endpoints. It suits devices with local power or separate power injectors. Buyers needing 48 10G multigigabit copper ports with 90W UPOE+ should compare it with C9300X-48HX-A. This distinction prevents accidental orders for access points, cameras, or phones that need switch-delivered power.
C9300X-48TX-A ships with Network Advantage, the higher Cisco campus switching tier for advanced routing, policy, and SD-Access roles. The Catalyst 9300 platform supports VLANs, SVIs, ACLs, QoS, routing protocols, segmentation, and fabric services through Cisco IOS XE. Licensing and DNA subscription terms should be matched to the intended Catalyst Center or standalone deployment.
C9300X-48TX-A runs Cisco IOS XE and is managed through standard Catalyst operational tools, including CLI, SNMP, NETCONF or RESTCONF where enabled, and Cisco Catalyst Center for policy and assurance workflows. Certain Catalyst 9300X models are also orderable with Meraki cloud-management experience, but C9300X-48TX-A is the Network Advantage Catalyst ordering variant.
C9300X-48TX-A supports StackWise-1T as part of the Catalyst 9300X modular-uplink family. A stack supports up to eight members with dedicated StackWise cables and a single management and control plane. Mixed stacks with standard Catalyst 9300 models operate at StackWise-480 speeds and require compatible licensing levels.
C9300X-48TX-A is used for high-density copper access where endpoints require more than 1G over existing RJ-45 infrastructure. It terminates workstations, access points with external power, servers, lab systems, security appliances, and other locally powered devices at 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G, or 100M speeds, then hands traffic to distribution through a selected uplink module.
C9300X-48TX-A fits medium to large campus wiring closets, dense lab networks, and compact distribution points that need 48 multigigabit copper connections per chassis. An eight-member StackWise-1T design increases multigigabit port count while keeping one operational control plane. Smaller sites with fewer high-speed copper endpoints may prefer C9300X-24HX-A or a standard Catalyst 9300 model.
C9300X-48TX-A suits high-bandwidth wired access workloads such as Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 6E access point backhaul with separate power, 10G desktop connectivity, engineering workstations, media endpoints, local backup traffic, and lab equipment. The 32 MB buffer listed for 48-port 10G multigigabit models also helps absorb bursts in dense access designs.
Yes, C9300X-48TX-A belongs to the Catalyst 9300 family that forms a foundation for Cisco SD-Access. With Network Advantage and the required Cisco Catalyst or DNA subscriptions, it supports policy-based automation, segmentation, Cisco ISE policy integration, and Catalyst Center assurance. The design should align license terms, fabric role, and uplink capacity before ordering.
C9300X-48TX-A uses Catalyst 9300X network modules, not fixed uplinks. Compatible module families include C9300X-NM-8M for eight multigigabit ports, C9300X-NM-8Y for eight 25G/10G/1G SFP28 ports, C9300X-NM-2C for two 100G/40G ports, and C9300X-NM-4C for four 100G/40G ports on supported 9300X chassis. The base switch normally ships without the network module installed.
C9300X-48TX-A integrates with Cisco Catalyst Center, Cisco Identity Services Engine, Cisco DNA or Catalyst software subscriptions, and standard Cisco IOS XE operational tooling. It also stacks with compatible Catalyst 9300X switches at StackWise-1T speeds and with compatible Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink switches at StackWise-480 speeds when license levels match.
C9300X-48TX-A supports Ethernet switching across 10GBASE-T multigigabit copper interfaces and standard Catalyst features such as VLANs, Spanning Tree, EtherChannel, QoS, ACLs, routing protocols, MACsec, and management protocols in Cisco IOS XE. Cisco lists safety and compliance coverage including IEEE 802.3, UL 60950-1, EN 60950-1, and RoHS 5 environmental compliance.
C9300X-48TX-A works with RJ-45 copper cabling for 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G multigigabit access speeds, subject to cabling category and channel quality. It is often selected where existing copper runs need a speed upgrade without replacing every endpoint cable with fiber. Uplink media depends on the selected C9300X network module and optics.
C9300X-48TX-A and C9300X-48TX-E share the same 48-port 10G/mGig copper data-only hardware profile with modular uplinks. The difference is software tier: C9300X-48TX-A includes Network Advantage, while C9300X-48TX-E uses Network Essentials. Buyers choose the A model for advanced routing, segmentation, and SD-Access-oriented designs. Operational commands, port layout, and performance expectations remain otherwise aligned.
C9300X-48TX-A is the data-only option, while C9300X-48HX-A provides 48 10G multigigabit copper ports with Cisco UPOE+ for powered endpoints. Both sit in the Catalyst 9300X family and support modular uplinks, high switching capacity, and Network Advantage. The HX model fits access points or powered devices; the TX model fits locally powered connections.
C9300X-48TX-A provides 48 full 10G multigigabit data ports, while C9300X-48HXN-A provides 40 5G multigigabit ports, 8 10G multigigabit ports, and UPOE+ support. The TX model prioritizes uniform 10G copper density without endpoint power. The HXN model fits mixed-speed powered access where fewer 10G copper ports are required.
C9300X-48TX-A provides 48 data-only 10G multigigabit ports, while C9300X-24HX-A provides 24 10G multigigabit ports with UPOE+ support. Both use Catalyst 9300X hardware, modular uplinks, and Network Advantage. The 48TX model suits higher copper density; the 24HX model suits smaller closets that need powered high-speed endpoints.
C9300X-48TX-A pricing is quote-based because condition, sourcing route, uplink module choice, support level, licensing term, and order quantity affect the final cost. ORM Systems can price new and refurbished options where available, including module and accessory bundles. Buyers should specify required uplinks, stacking cables, power supplies, and target delivery location for an accurate quote.
C9300X-48TX-A may be sourced as new, refurbished, or excess-stock equipment depending on channel availability at the time of purchase. ORM Systems lists enterprise switch options across both new and refurbished conditions. The correct choice depends on budget, lead time, warranty expectations, and whether matching accessories or software subscriptions are required in the same order.
C9300X-48TX-A appears as an active ordering product number in Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series ordering information. Buyers should still verify current Cisco lifecycle notices before a large rollout, because lifecycle status changes over time. ORM Systems can help source equivalent Catalyst 9300X alternatives if procurement rules require a different software tier or hardware profile.
C9300X-48TX-A lead time depends on current channel supply, selected condition, order quantity, and whether uplink modules, optics, stack cables, or subscriptions are included. Refurbished units may ship faster when tested stock is available, while factory-new orders may follow distributor availability. A complete bill of materials produces the most accurate lead-time estimate.
Bulk pricing is appropriate for C9300X-48TX-A when a project needs multiple switches, repeated closet builds, spare units, or matching C9300X uplink modules. ORM Systems can quote volume pricing based on quantity, condition, warranty term, and accessory bundle. Standardizing on one software tier and module type usually simplifies pricing, sparing, and deployment logistics.
ORM Systems can supply C9300X-48TX-A with warranty coverage appropriate to the quoted condition and support option, including up to 3-year warranty availability on eligible hardware. Warranty scope should be confirmed on the quotation, especially when the order combines a switch chassis, uplink module, optics, power supplies, and stacking accessories from different sourcing channels.
Refurbished C9300X-48TX-A units should be tested for boot health, port operation, management access, fan and power-supply status, cosmetic condition, and software readiness before dispatch. For this SKU, testing should include representative 10G/mGig copper port checks and verification that the chassis recognizes the selected Catalyst 9300X uplink module where one is bundled.
C9300X-48TX-A is covered by the Catalyst 9300 Series safety and compliance framework, including listed safety certifications such as UL 60950-1, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-1, EN 60950-1, IEC 60950-1, AS/NZS 60950.1, IEEE 802.3, and RoHS 5 environmental compliance. Buyers should match regional compliance requirements to the supplied exact part and power cord.
C9300X-48TX-A is normally staged through Cisco IOS XE using console or management access, then configured with management IP addressing, VLANs, trunks, routed interfaces, authentication, time settings, SNMP or telemetry, and uplink parameters. In a stack, engineers install StackWise cables, confirm member numbering, align software versions, and validate the single control plane before production handoff.
C9300X-48TX-A includes the Network Advantage base tier in the ordering PID, but the deployment may also require Cisco Catalyst or DNA subscription terms for Catalyst Center, SD-Access, ThousandEyes entitlement, and other software use rights. The final license bill should match operating mode, subscription duration, security requirements, and whether cloud monitoring or management is planned.
Common C9300X-48TX-A accessories include a Catalyst 9300X network module such as C9300X-NM-8Y or C9300X-NM-2C, compatible optics or copper uplink media, StackWise cables, power cords, a secondary power supply, rack-mount hardware, console cables, and any required SSD or HSEC authorization for specific hosted or IPsec use cases.
C9300X-48TX-A is available through ORM Systems for UK buyers seeking Cisco enterprise switching hardware. ORM Systems can quote the switch chassis with compatible C9300X network modules, optics, stacking accessories, warranty options, and new or refurbished condition choices. A project bill of materials helps avoid missing uplinks or stack components at installation time.
ORM Systems supports international sourcing and shipment for enterprise hardware such as C9300X-48TX-A, subject to destination, compliance, export rules, carrier availability, and stock condition. International buyers should include delivery country, required power cords, preferred Incoterms, and any accessory bundle in the quote request so the shipment is priced accurately.
