C9300L-48T-4G-A Description
The C9300L-48T-4G-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300L Series stackable access switch for wiring closets that connect locally powered endpoints over Gigabit copper. The switch has 48 10/100/1000 data-only ports, four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, 104 Gbps of switching capacity and Network Advantage licensing, with no PoE budget on its default 350W supply. Network Advantage adds VRF, VXLAN, NETCONF/RESTCONF and OSPF without a route limit, where Network Essentials stops at 1,000 OSPF routes.

Product Performance
Key Features
VRF, VXLAN, NETCONF/RESTCONF and OSPF without a route limit are included, which suits access layers that carry segmented or automated traffic.
All 48 copper ports are data-only, so phones, access points and cameras on this switch need their own power source.
Four SFP slots carry the uplinks, and the C9300L has no network module slot to change them.
Up to eight members stack over 320 Gbps links, which raises switching capacity from 104 Gbps to 424 Gbps. Members must share the same license level.
The default supply is the smallest in the Catalyst 9300 range because no PoE power is drawn. A second supply can be added for redundancy.
The 48 access ports and four uplinks add up to 52 Gbps, or 104 Gbps counted in both directions, which equals the 104 Gbps switching capacity.
Application Scenarios
A campus floor closet that connects desktops, printers and thin clients can keep tenant or department traffic apart with VRF on the Network Advantage license.
A school computer lab can give each of 48 workstations a Gigabit copper port and reach the building distribution switch over four 1G SFP uplinks.
Teams that manage the access layer through NETCONF and RESTCONF can configure the switch programmatically alongside the rest of the campus.

C9300L-48T-4G-A and C9300L-48T-4G-E share the same data-only hardware with 4 x 1G SFP uplinks and a PWR-C1-350WAC-P, and differ in license: C9300L-48T-4G-A ships with Network Advantage and C9300L-48T-4G-E with Network Essentials. Closets that need 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks move to C9300L-48T-4X-A, which raises standalone switching from 104 Gbps to 176 Gbps. Closets that power endpoints over Ethernet need C9300L-48P-4X-A, which pairs the 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks with 505W of default PoE on a PWR-C1-715WAC-P. Only Essentials-to-Advantage upgrades exist, through C9300L-LIC=, so Advantage hardware is not later reduced.
Ordering Checklist
- Subscription term: Order a 48-port Cisco DNA Advantage term such as C9300L-DNA-A-48-3Y, C9300L-DNA-A-48-5Y or C9300L-DNA-A-48-7Y; CCW defaults to Advantage with a 5-year term. The subscription tier must match the Network Essentials or Network Advantage license on the switch, and the default does not suit every suffix.
- Second power supply: A second supply identical to the primary is selected by default; C9300L-SPS-NONE removes it. Without it the switch runs on one supply instead of the two-supply layout the configurator assumes.
- Stacking kit: C9300L-STACK-KIT with a 50 cm cable is the default; 1 m and 3 m cables are the other options. A stack needs the kit and a cable long enough for the rack layout.
- Power cords: Two cords ship per switch, North America by default; select the cord type for the destination country. The default cord does not fit outlets outside North America.
