WS-C3750X-48PF-E is a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports and an empty uplink module bay in a 1U rack-mount chassis. The Catalyst 3750-X connects workstations, IP phones and wireless access points, while IP Services enables advanced IPv4 and IPv6 routing. Dedicated uplinks can be added with C3KX-NM-1G for 1G SFP connectivity, C3KX-NM-10G for 10G SFP+ connectivity, C3KX-NM-10GT for 10G copper or C3KX-SM-10G for uplink Flexible NetFlow and MACsec. This 48-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch separates endpoint connectivity from the uplink module selected for the order. A second internal power supply bay ships empty, allowing another C3KX-PWR-1100WAC to be specified for redundancy. The discontinued WS-C3750X-48P-E is the nearest lower-budget sibling, providing 435W for powered devices.

160 Gbps switching capacity handles access traffic, while 101.2 Mpps forwarding applies to the configuration with two 10GbE uplinks. 800W of shared PoE capacity allocates power across endpoint connections rather than guaranteeing maximum output on every port simultaneously. 173.69W measured consumption with C3KX-SM-10G installed at full traffic excludes PoE loading, so electrical sizing must account for endpoint power separately. WS-C3750X-48PF-E carries 256 MB DRAM and 64 MB flash for Cisco IOS operation and local software storage. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 enable advanced IPv4 routing; OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 support IPv6, while PIM-SM and PIM-DM provide multicast routing. The Cisco Catalyst 3750-X Series also supports LACP for link aggregation and RSTP and MSTP for spanning-tree operation. Administrators can use SSH and encrypted SNMPv3 when the cryptographic software image is installed. UPOE is not available on this PoE+ configuration.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E is available from ORM Systems new sealed or certified refurbished, with ORM warranties of up to 3-year extended coverage for new units or up to 1 year for certified refurbished units; 30-day returns cover every condition, terms apply, and Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty ended October 31, 2021. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot and PoE output under load on every powered port, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and accessory quantities on the purchase order. ORM accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government orders, and provides RMA with advance replacement across the UK, EU, US and MEA for enterprise and volume requirements.

In a multi-building corporate campus, IT teams deploy the Cisco Catalyst 3750X 48-port GbE Full PoE IP Services switch to power 48 IP phones and wireless access points per closet, leveraging StackWise Plus for sub-second failover and advanced IPv4/IPv6 routing. Benefit: Delivers converged voice, video and data on a single, resilient platform that simplifies management, guarantees consistent QoS for real-time applications and reduces operational overhead.
A nationwide retail chain installs the Catalyst 3750X 48-port Full PoE switch in each store backroom to support point-of-sale terminals, digital shelf tags and in-store Wi-Fi APs over a single switch. Integrated IP Services enable traffic segmentation and priority-based QoS, while PoE+ powers devices without separate injectors. Benefit: Ensures secure, always-on transactions and high-impact customer displays with centralized management and reduced cabling complexity.
In a smart office tower, facilities deploy the Catalyst 3750X 48-port Full PoE IP Services switch to aggregate IP surveillance cameras, environmental sensors and access-control panels on each floor. Advanced features such as dynamic VLAN assignments, IP SLA and hardware-based encryption enforce security policies and real-time monitoring. Benefit: Provides scalable PoE power delivery, centralized policy enforcement and network visibility for enhanced building security and energy efficiency.
When an existing access stack needs another member, check the installed feature sets before specifying hardware. LAN Base members cannot mix with IP Base or IP Services members. Select CAB-STACK-50CM=, CAB-STACK-1M= or CAB-STACK-3M= to match the cabinet spacing, and confirm the intended software version before issuing the purchase order.
When routing is being moved into an access closet, size the switched virtual interface requirement before ordering. The switch supports 1000 SVIs, while SDM templates divide hardware resources between host addresses, routes and access control entries. Specify the intended template and retain the required routing configuration in the staging checklist.
When a replacement must be staged before shipment, use the RJ-45 console connection and Ethernet management port to separate local setup from management-network access. A North American hardware order can specify CAB-3KX-AC=. Confirm the power-cord variant and the configuration handoff requirements before releasing the purchase order.
Active Cisco service coverage
Cisco service for WS-C3750X-48PF-E ended October 31, 2021. Evaluate current C9300-48P-A for migration rather than purchasing legacy hardware when ongoing Cisco service eligibility is required.
Powered endpoints above 30W
WS-C3750X-48PF-E provides PoE+ with a 30W per-port limit, not UPOE. C9300-48U-A is a current 48-port UPOE migration option for higher-power endpoint requirements.

Predictable operation and minimal downtime.
In WS-C3750X-48PF-E, WS-C3750X identifies the stackable Catalyst 3750-X family, 48 identifies the access-port count, P identifies PoE+, F distinguishes the 1100W full-PoE configuration, and E identifies IP Services. Dedicated uplink selection is separate because the base switch ships without an uplink module.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E supports CLI management through the console, Telnet or SSH, plus SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. A PC-based configuration tool and CiscoWorks LMS provide additional management paths. SSH and encrypted SNMPv3 require a cryptographic software image; verify that image when specifying secure administrative access.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E reached end of sale October 30, 2016, and its last date of support was October 31, 2021. Cisco service has ended. Its direct replacement, WS-C3850-48F-E, is also discontinued; the replacement chain ends at current C9300-48P-A. New sealed stock does not restart Cisco support eligibility.
ORM offers WS-C3750X-48PF-E new sealed with up to 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty ended October 31, 2021. Cisco-remanufactured WS-C3750X-48PFE-RF is separate from ORM-certified refurbishment.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E uses IP Services activated by a local Cisco IOS license file. The Catalyst 3750-X family also offers LAN Base and IP Base; feature upgrades use factory IOS upgrades, paper licenses or electronic licenses. Confirm the IP Services entitlement rather than assuming hardware condition establishes the installed software tier.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E replaces WS-C3750E-48PD-EF, which reached end of sale January 30, 2013. The older PID is a discontinued Catalyst 3750-E IP Services configuration. Because the replacement is also discontinued, treat this selection as legacy hardware standardization rather than a migration to a current Cisco generation.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E cannot deliver 30W on all 48 ports with its single supplied C3KX-PWR-1100WAC: the shared budget is 800W, while simultaneous maximum loading requires 1440W. Add another C3KX-PWR-1100WAC or C3KX-PWR-715WAC for that loading requirement. Size the supply configuration against allocated endpoint demand before ordering.
The Catalyst 3750-X accepts C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-10GT and C3KX-SM-10G. C3KX-NM-1G provides four 1G SFP ports; C3KX-NM-10G provides two 10G SFP+ uplinks; C3KX-NM-10GT provides two 10G copper uplinks. C3KX-SM-10G adds two 10G SFP+ uplinks with Flexible NetFlow and MACsec. The base configuration has no installed module.
StackWise Plus stacks nine Catalyst 3750-X members with 64 Gbps stack bandwidth. CAB-STACK-50CM=, CAB-STACK-1M= and CAB-STACK-3M= provide different cable lengths for cabinet layouts. LAN Base members cannot mix with IP Base or IP Services members, so confirm software compatibility before specifying an additional stack member.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E supports 11000 total unicast routes with the routing SDM template: 3000 directly connected hosts and 8000 indirect routes. IP Services enables full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4. SDM templates redistribute hardware resources, so maximum route capacity and maximum MAC capacity are not simultaneous allocations.
The Catalyst 3750-X full-PoE configuration ships with one C3KX-PWR-1100WAC, leaving its second internal supply bay empty. Redundant power is optional rather than included. Specify another compatible supply when redundancy is required, and distinguish power reserved for backup from power allocated to additional endpoint loading.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E consumes 173.69W in a full-traffic test with C3KX-SM-10G installed and no PoE load. That figure excludes endpoint power and is not the maximum draw of a fully powered installation. The 1100W rating of C3KX-PWR-1100WAC describes supply capacity, not measured switch consumption.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E provides an 800W PoE budget, while WS-C3750X-48P-E provides 435W. Both offer 48 PoE+ access ports with IP Services and are discontinued. The PF model fits legacy installations with larger allocated endpoint loads; the P model fits restorations whose powered-device requirements remain within its smaller shared budget.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E includes IP Services, while WS-C3750X-48PF-S includes IP Base. IP Services enables full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4; IP Base includes routed-access OSPF and EIGRP stub. Both are discontinued. The E variant fits advanced-routing restoration; the S variant fits baseline routed-access restoration.
WS-C3750X-48PF-E is discontinued, while C9300-48P-A is the current endpoint of its replacement chain. The intermediate WS-C3850-48F-E also ended sale October 30, 2020. Exact legacy sparing calls for the older PID; a new migration purchase should specify the current endpoint rather than the discontinued intermediate model.
