C9200-48T-A Description
The C9200-48T-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series modular-uplink stackable access switch for wiring closets that connect data-only devices such as desktops and printers. The switch has 48 10/100/1000 copper ports without PoE, a modular uplink slot for C9200-NM-4G or C9200-NM-4X, and 176 Gbps of switching capacity on a PWR-C6-125WAC supply. The -A suffix carries Network Advantage, which adds EIGRP, HSRP, IS-IS and VRF, VXLAN and LISP segmentation to the Network Essentials feature set.

Product Performance
Key Features
All 48 ports are 10/100/1000 copper ports with no PoE output. The PWR-C6-125WAC supply is sized for the switch alone, so no PoE budget has to be planned.
The single bay takes C9200-NM-4G for four 1G SFP ports or C9200-NM-4X for four 1G/10G SFP+ ports. Uplink speed follows the module that is installed rather than the chassis.
Network Advantage adds EIGRP, HSRP, IS-IS and VRF-lite, VXLAN and LISP segmentation to the Layer 2 and Routed Access base of Network Essentials.
Up to eight C9200 switches at the same license tier join one 160 Gbps stack with a single management plane, up to 384 access ports and sub-50 ms failover.
Port-based 802.1X authentication and MACsec-128 link encryption are part of the Network Essentials base that the Advantage tier includes.
The power supplies and fan modules are field replaceable, and the second supply slot can hold a second PWR-C6-125WAC for redundancy.
Application Scenarios
In a wiring closet where all 48 downlinks connect desktops, printers and other devices that draw no PoE, the switch needs only its 125W supply and no PoE budget.
On a multi-tenant or multi-department floor, the switch keeps traffic separated with VRF-lite, VXLAN or LISP segmentation before it reaches the rest of the campus network.
A campus access stack running Network Advantage can add 48 more ports by joining the switch to the existing StackWise-160 ring, which then still has a single management plane.

C9200-48T-A is the data-only 48-port model: its PWR-C6-125WAC supply gives no PoE, while C9200-48P-A has the same 176 Gbps, modular uplink bay and Network Advantage on PWR-C6-1KWAC with 740W of PoE, so any powered phones, cameras or access points need C9200-48P-A. C9200-24T-A halves the data ports to 24 and 128 Gbps for closets that stay at that size. C9200L-48T-4X-A has four fixed 1/10G SFP+ uplinks and StackWise-80, with 256 Gbps stacked against 336 Gbps, so it suits only designs where uplink speed is settled. A site that needs none of the Advantage routing or segmentation can order C9200-48T-E; an installed C9200-48T-E rises to Advantage with C9200-48-E-A, which cannot ride on the switch order.
Ordering Checklist
- Subscription tier: Select an Advantage 48-port term: C9200-DNA-A-48 with a -3Y, -5Y or -7Y term, or C9200-DNX-A-48-3Y, -5Y or -7Y for Cisco Catalyst. The subscription must match the switch suffix, and the configurator defaults to a 3-year Cisco DNA term.
- Uplink module: Keep C9200-NM-4G or C9200-NM-4X, or select C9200-NM-BLANK. The switch runs only with a network module or a blank module installed.
- Second power supply: A second PWR-C6-125WAC can be added, ordered as PWR-C6-125WAC/2. The switch ships with one 125W supply, and the second adds redundancy only because this model has no PoE.
- Stack kit: Add C9200-STACK-KIT for StackWise-160, which holds two stack adapters and one STACK-T4-50CM cable; STACK-T4-1M and STACK-T4-3M are longer options. The kit does not ship with the switch, and C9200 members stack only with other C9200 members at the same license tier.
- Power cord: Select a cord for the destination country, such as CAB-TA-NA= for North America or CAB-TA-UK= for the UK. An AC power supply needs a cord selected in the configurator.
