MS125-48-HW provides cloud-managed Layer 2 access switching through 48 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. The non-PoE configuration connects separately powered endpoints in a 1U rack-mount chassis, with no uplink expansion card required. Within the Meraki MS125 family, this model separates endpoint connectivity from endpoint power delivery: phones, cameras, and access points require their own power sources. The discontinued MS125-48LP-HW adds a shared 370W PoE+ budget where powered connections are required. Branch and campus buyers selecting the 48-port Gigabit access switch should distinguish its built-in uplinks from physical stacking interfaces; centralized port administration does not create a dedicated stack interconnect.
MS125-48-HW price for new stock is $868.35. MS125-48-HW refurb price is $451.49. MS125-48-HW is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

176 Gbps switching capacity and 130 Mpps forwarding support traffic across the access and uplink interfaces. 32000 MAC entries provide the forwarding-table scale for connected devices. STP/RSTP handles loop prevention, while IGMP snooping filters multicast delivery and configurable quality-of-service queues distinguish traffic classes. MS125-48-HW integrates SNMP and SYSLOG with external monitoring systems, alongside historical per-port and per-client statistics. Administrators can schedule automatic firmware upgrades and use remote packet capture, cable testing, ping, and traceroute during troubleshooting. 42W maximum power consumption provides the switch-load figure for electrical planning; the fixed internal supply does not provide an internal redundant-power option.
ORM Systems offers MS125-48-HW new sealed and 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 on every condition; terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, every port linking at rated speed, and optics bay recognition; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the required condition and licensing on the purchase order. Enterprise and volume orders support PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Port Configuration | 48 x 1G, 4 x 10G SFP+ |
Max Power Draw | 42W |
Replaces | MS42-HW; end of sale April 26, 2014 |
Lifecycle Status | End of sale; support ends March 28, 2030 |
When replacing discontinued MS42-HW hardware, retain its April 26, 2014 end-of-sale date and April 26, 2021 support-end date in the asset record. Treat the replacement as a separate lifecycle decision, and confirm the intended deployment duration and existing cloud-management requirements before issuing the purchase order.
When standardizing port administration across multiple locations, Virtual Stacking groups thousands of switch ports for configuration and monitoring without a physical stack connection. This purchase trigger concerns administrative consistency rather than shared stack bandwidth. Specify the participating locations, port policies, and Dashboard organization before the purchase order.
For a staging bench that must reproduce production link-aggregation settings, the MS125 series supports eight ports per aggregate. That constraint matters when the bench is expected to mirror an existing configuration rather than simply provide endpoint connectivity. Confirm aggregate membership and the peer-side configuration before ordering staging hardware.
Switch-powered phones and wireless access points
MS125-48-HW does not supply endpoint power. Devices connected to its copper ports need separate power sources; purchasing this model does not provide PoE.
Physical stacking with dedicated stack bandwidth
MS125-48-HW provides Virtual Stacking for port administration, not physical stacking. A design requiring a dedicated stack interconnect cannot use this model as a physical stack member.
On-switch inter-VLAN and dynamic routing
MS125-48-HW provides Layer 2 access switching rather than routed access. Inter-VLAN forwarding and dynamic routing must be handled by another device in the network.

MS125-48-HW identifies an MS125-series hardware unit with 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports. MS125 names the series, 48 identifies the access-port count, and HW distinguishes the hardware ordering form from its separate license. This configuration has four 10G uplinks and does not deliver PoE.
MS125-48-HW is managed through the browser-based Meraki Dashboard, with a Local Status Page available for initial connectivity settings and troubleshooting. Dashboard handles switch and port configuration rather than a conventional configuration CLI. Initial setup includes claiming the device, adding it to a network, and allowing cloud check-in.
MS125-48-HW is end of sale, and support for the MS125 family ends March 28, 2030. End of sale and end of support are separate milestones. A purchase for an existing installation should therefore account for the remaining support period rather than assuming a new hardware order restarts it.
ORM Systems offers MS125-48-HW new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Cisco’s lifetime hardware warranty is separate, subject to eligibility, and ends with support on March 28, 2030. Every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply.
MS125-48-HW uses a separately purchased Meraki Enterprise license, available in 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 10-year terms. LIC-MS125-48-1Y is the one-year option. Match the license to this hardware model and the intended organization when preparing the purchase order; the hardware PID alone is not a license purchase.
MS125-48-HW replaces discontinued MS42-HW, whose end-of-sale date was April 26, 2014 and support ended April 26, 2021. A replacement purchase should be checked against present port, uplink, and licensing requirements, rather than against the older unit’s original support expectations or the date it entered service.
MS125-48LP-HW supplies a shared 370W PoE+ budget, while MS125-48-HW supplies no endpoint power. Both MS125 models are end of sale. The non-PoE model suits separately powered endpoints; the LP model suits endpoints requiring switch-delivered power, provided their combined demand stays within its shared budget.
MS125-48-HW has 48 Gigabit access ports, while MS125-24-HW has 24. Both models belong to the discontinued MS125 family. The larger configuration suits installations requiring more copper connections; the smaller configuration suits lower connection counts. Confirm the number of endpoints and reserved connections before choosing between these hardware forms.
The MS125 series provides four fixed SFP+ uplinks supporting 1G or 10G connections. These are built into the chassis rather than supplied by a removable uplink card. Select compatible link media for the required distance and peer interface, and distinguish those uplinks from the dedicated management connection.
The MS125 series provides Layer 2 access switching, so inter-VLAN routing must be performed elsewhere. DHCP relay does not turn the switch into a routed-access device. Specify the upstream routing function separately when preparing a design that requires communication between VLANs rather than only switching within them.
The non-PoE 48-port MS125 occupies 1U and uses a fixed internal AC supply. Its chassis measures 44 mm high, 440 mm wide, and 250 mm deep, with a weight of 4.2 kg. Allow for the chassis and cabling when checking the rack before ordering.
