C9300-48UXM-E Description

C9300-48UXM-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9300 stackable access switch for campus access deployments that need high-density multigigabit copper connectivity and modular uplinks. This exact Network Essentials SKU provides 48 UPOE access ports arranged as 36 x 2.5G plus 12 x 10G multigigabit ports, uses a field-replaceable Catalyst 9300 network-module slot for uplink selection, ships with a PWR-C1-1100WAC-P power supply for a 490W default PoE budget, and supports the Catalyst 9300 StackWise-480 and StackPower architecture.

Key Features

Network Essentials UXM order line

The `-E` suffix maps this switch to Network Essentials, while C9300-48UXM-A is the same C9300-48UXM hardware ordered with Network Advantage.

Twelve 10G-capable copper access ports

The UXM layout separates this SKU from all-port 5G and 1G Catalyst 9300 access models by reserving twelve multigigabit copper ports for 10G-capable access.

Modular uplink bill of materials

Cisco ordering guidance lists C9300-NM-8X as the default network-module selection for modular-uplink C9300 SKUs, while another C9300-NM option or C9300-NM-NONE can be selected.

StackWise-480 access stack member

C9300-48UXM-E belongs to the modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 family with StackWise-480, which makes stack member count and cable length part of the deployment check.

UPOE power supply planning

The default PWR-C1-1100WAC-P supply gives a 490W Cisco-listed PoE budget, with higher PoE budgets tied to the secondary supply or 1900W upgrade path.

Cisco IOS XE 16.6.2 hardware support

Cisco release notes list C9300-48UXM-E and C9300-48UXM-A under Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.6.2 hardware features, so image baseline checks should not be copied from earlier 1G-only models.

Application Scenarios

High-speed copper access refresh

C9300-48UXM-E fits an access closet where most links need 2.5G copper and a smaller group of APs, uplinks, or endpoint runs need 10G-capable mGig access on the same switch.

Essentials-tier UXM standardization

The SKU works for a Catalyst 9300 standard that specifies the UXM mixed-speed hardware but keeps Network Essentials instead of moving the order to C9300-48UXM-A.

Modular-uplink stack expansion

The switch belongs in a modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 stack where the C9300 network-module selection, StackWise-480 cable, StackPower cable, and UPOE power plan are aligned in the same bill of materials.

  • C9300-48UXM-E vs C9300-48UXM-A is a license comparison: both rows keep the 36-plus-12 UXM mGig port layout, 490W default PoE value, and same performance figures, while the current SKU is Network Essentials.
  • In a C9300-48UXM-E vs C9300-48UN-E comparison, the difference is access-port distribution: C9300-48UXM-E provides twelve 10G-capable mGig ports, while C9300-48UN-E keeps all 48 ports at the 5G mGig profile.
  • C9300-48UXM-E vs C9300-24UX-E is a port-count and layout comparison, because the current SKU has 48 total access ports with a 36-plus-12 split and C9300-24UX-E has 24 10G-capable mGig UPOE ports.
  • For C9300-48UXM-E vs C9300-48U-E, the which model to choose check starts with speed class: C9300-48UXM-E is the multigigabit UPOE option, while C9300-48U-E is the 48-port 1G UPOE model.

Selection Guide

1. Choose it for mixed 2.5G and 10G mGig access

Select C9300-48UXM-E when the bill of materials calls for Catalyst 9300 modular uplinks, Network Essentials, and a 48-port copper access mix with twelve 10G-capable mGig ports.

2. Change only the suffix for Advantage

Move to C9300-48UXM-A only when the same C9300-48UXM hardware must be paired with Network Advantage instead of Network Essentials.

3. Keep C9300-48UN separate from UXM

Use C9300-48UN-E only when every access port should follow the 5G mGig profile rather than the C9300-48UXM-E 36-port 2.5G plus 12-port 10G-capable layout.

4. Do not replace it with a 1G UPOE model

Keep C9300-48U-E out of the quote when the requirement names multigigabit copper access, because its confirmed access profile is 48 1G UPOE ports.

Cisco Confirmed Value

Order Impact

Default PoE budget

C9300-48UXM is listed with 490W available PoE and PWR-C1-1100WAC-P as the default supply

Size the powered endpoint plan against the base budget before assuming secondary power

Secondary supply options

With PWR-C1-1100WAC-P as primary, Cisco lists 840W with a 350W secondary, 1205W with a 715W secondary, 1590W with an 1100W secondary, and 2390W with a 1900W secondary

Add the secondary supply that matches the UPOE endpoint load and redundancy target

1900W upgrade path

With PWR-C1-1900WAC-P as primary, Cisco lists 1290W available PoE before secondary power and up to 2880W with larger secondary supplies

Use the upgrade path only when the power design requires the larger Cisco-listed budget

StackPower support

Catalyst 9300 modular-uplink switches support StackPower

Include StackPower cabling only when shared power is part of the stack design

Questions & Answers

  • What is C9300-48UXM-E used for?

    C9300-48UXM-E fits multigigabit UPOE access where Network Essentials is enough and the closet needs 36 2.5G ports plus 12 10G mGig ports.
  • What access speeds are available on C9300-48UXM-E?

    C9300-48UXM-E provides 36 ports at 2.5G/1G/100M and 12 ports at 10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100M multigigabit copper speeds for mixed AP access.
  • Does C9300-48UXM-E have fixed uplinks?

    No. C9300-48UXM-E uses modular C9300 uplinks, so the uplink module is selected separately for the required upstream speed.
  • How is C9300-48UXM-E different from C9300-48UXM-A?

    C9300-48UXM-E carries Network Essentials licensing, while C9300-48UXM-A carries Network Advantage on the same 36/12 multigigabit UPOE hardware.
  • Can C9300-48UXM-E power Wi-Fi 6 access points?

    Yes. C9300-48UXM-E combines UPOE power with mGig access, making it relevant for Wi-Fi 6 access points that need more than 1G.
  • What stacking family applies to C9300-48UXM-E?

    C9300-48UXM-E is a modular-uplink Catalyst 9300 model using StackWise-480, separate from C9300L fixed-uplink StackWise-320 behavior and accessories.
  • When does C9300-48UXM-E make sense over C9300-48U-E?

    C9300-48UXM-E fits when multigigabit access is required; C9300-48U-E is a 48-port 1G UPOE model for lower access-speed demand.
  • What buyer check is specific to C9300-48UXM-E?

    Buyers need to match the 36/12 mGig port split, UPOE budget, C9300 network module, and Network Essentials software scope.
