Product Overview
The Cisco Catalyst 9300 48-Port Switch (model C9300-48UXM-EDU) is a high-performance, rack-mountable, stackable Layer 3 switch designed for scalable enterprise networks. With a total of 48 ports (12 multigigabit capable up to 10Gbps and 36 2.5GBase-T), and full UPOE, this switch offers a powerful backbone for Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, IP devices, and more. A 490W PoE budget and optional power redundancy provide resilience and operational efficiency for critical installations.
Supporting advanced routing protocols (OSPF, BGP, EIGRP) and managed through CLI, SNMP, NETCONF, or RESTCONF, it enables detailed monitoring and management via Flexible NetFlow, AVC, and integrated tools like Wireshark. Enterprises benefit from StackWise-480 technology, MACsec encryption, and 128-bit AES support to maintain performance and security in large-scale deployments.
With 431.54 Mpps forwarding, jumbo frame support (9198 bytes), and extensive Layer 2/3 capabilities, this switch meets the bandwidth and management expectations of K‑12 and enterprise networks alike. Compliance with IEEE and environmental standards further enhances deployment versatility and durability.
