MS120-48LP-HW is a Cisco Meraki MS120 cloud-managed Layer 2 access switch with 48 1GbE RJ-45 PoE+ ports, a shared 370W PoE budget and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The 1U rack platform fits small branch and office access closets that need dashboard-managed Gigabit edge ports for phones, wireless access points and cameras without physical stacking. The Cisco Meraki MS120 family uses internal power and dashboard virtual stacking rather than stack modules or stack cables, so the PO should carry the matching Meraki Enterprise license and any required SFP optics. MS120-48FP-HW keeps the same 48-port and 4x1G uplink layout but raises the PoE budget to 740W for higher aggregate endpoint draw.
MS120-48LP-HW price for new stock is $357.00, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $714.00. MS120-48LP-HW refurb price is $159.60. MS120-48LP-HW is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

104 Gbps switching capacity supports the 48 Gigabit access ports and the four 1G fiber uplinks without treating the uplinks as modular slots. 77.38 Mpps forwarding is the published rate for the 48-port MS120 hardware class. MS120-48LP-HW is managed in the Meraki dashboard, where switch health, port policies, event logs and client usage are handled centrally; a Meraki Enterprise term keeps software upgrades, support and cloud management active. DHCP relay is the routing function for this Layer 2 model, so static routing, OSPF and other dynamic routing protocols belong on a different access platform. LACP, RSTP, voice VLAN, DHCP snooping, IGMP snooping, QoS and MAC-based RADIUS authentication cover common access-layer controls. Internal AC power feeds a fixed supply, and power redundancy is not provided through a second internal bay or an external RPS connection.
Order MS120-48LP-HW new sealed or certified refurbished, with the Meraki Enterprise license term and regional power cord on the same purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested; firmware is verified, configurations are wiped to factory default, PoE output is checked under load, SFP bays are recognized, and PSU and fan status are tested. ORM Systems offers new units with up to 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units with up to 1 year, and 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. PO accepted, Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement, and UK, EU, US and MEA stock or RMA support cover enterprise and volume orders.

A branch closet feeding phones, cameras and access points can fill 48 PoE+ copper ports before the power budget is exhausted. Size the endpoint draw against the 370W pool, then specify the matching Meraki Enterprise license term, regional power cord and any 1G SFP optics before the PO.
A distributed rollout that already uses Meraki dashboard operations can standardize port policy and monitoring around the 48-port MS120 layout. Confirm every site needs 1G access, four 1G fiber uplinks and virtual stacking only, then order identical license terms to simplify renewals.
A network standardized on MS120-48LP-HW may need like-for-like spares for existing racks, port maps and dashboard templates. Match the 48 PoE+ ports, 4x1G SFP uplinks and Enterprise license coverage, and check that the replacement unit includes the required power cord.
10G uplinks to distribution
MS120-48LP-HW has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. MS150-48LP-4X is the current 48-port 370W PoE option with 4x10G SFP+ uplinks.
Physical switch stacking
MS120 supports dashboard virtual stacking only, not physical data-plane stacking. MS210-48LP-HW provides 80 GbE physical stacking with compatible MS225 switches.
Full 740W PoE budget
The 48 powered ports share 370W on this model. MS150-48FP-4G is the current 48-port 1G PoE+ option with a 740W PoE budget.
Static routed access
MS120 routing capability is DHCP relay rather than static routing. MS150-48LP-4G adds static routing while keeping 48 1G access ports and 370W PoE.

MS120-48LP-HW identifies a Meraki MS120 hardware switch: MS120 is the series, 48LP is the 48-port 370W PoE variant, and HW is the hardware appliance. The full part number describes a cloud-managed Layer 2 Gigabit switch with 48 powered access ports.
MS120-48LP-HW is managed through the Meraki dashboard web interface. The dashboard handles switch monitoring, port configuration, policy changes, event logs and client visibility across one or many sites, while the hardware requires an active Meraki Enterprise license term for cloud management and support.
MS120-48LP-HW belongs to the MS120-48 access switch family that Cisco marks as end-of-sale. The platform is still relevant for like-for-like sparing and installed-base standardization, but new designs should compare current cloud-managed access models before standardizing on additional MS120 hardware.
MS120-48LP-HW is available from ORM Systems new sealed or certified refurbished. Cisco Meraki hardware carries a limited lifetime hardware warranty, while ORM offers up to 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on certified refurbished units and 30-day returns; terms apply.
MS120-48LP-HW requires a Meraki Enterprise license and support term for cloud management. LIC-MS120-48LP-1YR, LIC-MS120-48LP-3YR and LIC-MS120-48LP-5YR are matching one-, three- and five-year license options for this exact hardware model.
MS120-48LP-HW replaces MS220-48LP-HW as the functionally equivalent 48-port 370W PoE access switch. The older MS220-48LP-HW reached end of sale on July 29, 2017 and end of support on July 29, 2024, so spares should be planned by exact site requirement.
MS120-48LP-HW provides a 370W PoE budget across 48 PoE+ ports. Because 48 ports at the 30W PoE+ maximum would require 1440W, the budget is shared and should be checked against real endpoint draw rather than port count alone.
MS120-48LP-HW has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The uplinks are not modular slots, and optics are ordered separately for the required fiber or copper handoff. Buyers needing 10G SFP+ uplinks should use a different model family.
MS120-48LP-HW cannot physically stack with another switch. The MS120 family supports virtual stacking in the dashboard, which groups administration across ports without stack cables, stack modules or stacking bandwidth. Physical stacking requires a different Meraki access switch family.
MS120-48LP-HW does not support redundant power supplies. The switch uses internal power and has no second internal PSU bay, external RPS support or dual power supply option, so power resilience must be handled upstream from the rack power design.
MS120-48FP-HW provides a 740W PoE budget where MS120-48LP-HW provides 370W. Both models use 48 Gigabit PoE access ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, so MS120-48FP-HW fits higher aggregate endpoint power and MS120-48LP-HW fits lower draw closets.
MS125-48LP-HW has four 10G SFP+ uplinks where MS120-48LP-HW has four 1G SFP uplinks. Both are 48-port 370W PoE cloud-managed Layer 2 access switches, so MS125-48LP-HW fits faster distribution links and MS120-48LP-HW fits 1G uplink designs.
MS130-48P-HW is the current MS130 48-port PoE access model, while MS120-48LP-HW is an end-of-sale MS120 model with four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. MS130-48P-HW fits new standardization, and MS120-48LP-HW fits installed-base matching.
