Description
Cisco Catalyst C9300-48H Switch
High-Density 90W Power Access | 48-Port Gigabit UPOE+ | 480-Gbps Stacking | Enterprise Edge
The Cisco Catalyst C9300-48H is a high-density, stackable enterprise access switch engineered to handle demanding IoT, smart building, and high-power workspace environments. Featuring 48 line-rate 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper ports equipped with **Cisco Universal PoE Plus (UPOE+)**, this switch supplies an industry-leading **90W of power per port**. It is the premier choice for large campus footprints deploying power-intensive hardware, including multi-radio Wi-Fi 6E/7 access points, pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) dome cameras, smart LED lighting, and compact edge compute nodes. Built on the proven UADP 2.0 architecture, it combines high-wattage delivery with resilient Layer 3 routing and robust multi-layer enterprise security.
Key Technical Features
* High-Density 90W UPOE+
Delivers up to 90W of power per port across all 48 ports, empowering smart building infrastructure, multi-radio APs, and demanding IT/OT devices.
* Cisco StackWise-480
Supports up to 480 Gbps of stacking bandwidth, enabling a resilient, single-logical-device architecture across up to 8 switches simultaneously.
* Flexible Modular Uplinks
Features a modular uplink slot accepting optional 1G, 10G, 25G, or 40G network modules to seamlessly scale your backbone connections.
* StackPower Resiliency
Leverage Cisco StackPower to pool and share power budgets across your local switch stack, reinforcing protection against sudden PSU hardware failure.
* Advanced Perimeter Security
Utilizes Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA), AES-256 MACsec encryption, and TrustSec architectures to defend localized enterprise traffic lanes.
* Container Application Hosting
An onboard x86 CPU structure with 8GB RAM allows engineering teams to host lightweight native monitoring, management, or security containers.
