In a university campus spanning five buildings, IT teams install the WS-X4590-E Catalyst 4500 Enhanced 48-Port 10/100/1000 Base-T (RJ-45) Linecard in redundant Supervisor Engine chassis to aggregate 1 Gbps uplinks from 24 edge switches. This deployment delivers wire-speed forwarding, per-port QoS and VLAN segmentation, simplifying network management and supporting bandwidth-intensive e-learning applications. Outcome: Seamless campus-wide connectivity, predictable performance and streamlined operations at scale.
A mid-market data center integrates the WS-X4590-E linecard into a Catalyst 4500 chassis as a top-of-rack (ToR) aggregator for 10 server racks running VMware ESXi. Leveraging 48 1 GbE RJ-45 ports with 802.1Q trunking, redundant supervisor modules and hardware-based forwarding, the solution consolidates east-west traffic, accelerates VM migrations and maintains sub-millisecond latency. Outcome: Enhanced throughput, high availability and optimized virtual workload performance.
An enterprise contact center deploys the WS-X4590-E 48-port 1 GbE RJ-45 linecard in its Catalyst 4500 to connect 200 IP phones and 50 access points across a single rack. Built-in QoS, rate limiting and Cisco TrustSec integration ensure voice and wireless traffic receive priority treatment. Outcome: Superior voice quality, minimized jitter and centralized policy enforcement for unified communications and guest-Wi-Fi services.

The Catalyst WS-X4590-E is a high-density gigabit Ethernet linecard for Cisco Catalyst 4500E series chassis, offering 48 10/100/1000 Base-T RJ-45 ports for enterprise and campus networks.
The WS-X4590-E provides 48 RJ-45 ports with auto-sensing 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, delivering wire-speed performance for mixed-traffic environments.
The WS-X4590-E is compatible with Cisco Catalyst 4500E and 4500X series supervisors but is not supported in legacy Supervisor I or older 4500 platforms.
No. The WS-X4590-E does not deliver PoE. For Power over Ethernet requirements, use a PoE-capable linecard such as the WS-X4748P-L-E.
The linecard delivers up to 95.2 million packets per second (Mpps) forwarding rate and 80 Gbps aggregate bandwidth in a single enhanced slot.
It supports comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, including VLANs, QoS, OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, MPLS, and multicast with Cisco IOS software.
Slide the WS-X4590-E into any available 4500E enhanced slot, secure the captive screws, and reload the supervisor for automatic detection and configuration.
Under full load, the WS-X4590-E consumes approximately 75 W with front-to-back airflow in a properly configured Catalyst 4500E chassis.
Yes. You can deploy WS-X4590-E alongside other enhanced or standard linecards, provided the chassis supervisor has sufficient capacity and compatible slots.
Cisco offers a limited lifetime hardware warranty with Smart Net Total Care available for 24×7 technical support, software updates, and next-business-day hardware replacement.
The WS-X4590-E is fully supported with mainstream maintenance through at least 2025; refer to Cisco’s End-of-Life announcement for the latest end-of-sale and support timelines.
The WS-X4590-E relies on the chassis supervisor for uplinks. You can install Supervisor IV or later modules with built-in 10GbE or 40GbE uplink ports.
By providing wire-speed gigabit switching, hardware-based QoS, and efficient multicast handling, it reduces latency and optimizes application traffic in large networks.
It requires front-to-back airflow with compatible fan trays in the Catalyst 4500E chassis to maintain optimal operating temperatures under heavy load.
Use Cisco IOS commands like show module and show interfaces, verify link status LEDs, check supervisor logs, and contact Cisco TAC for advanced diagnostics.
The module measures 1.6×13.2×16.3 inches (H×W×D) and weighs approximately 2.2 lbs (1 kg), making it compatible with standard 4500E chassis slots.
