C9300L-48T-4G-A Description

The Cisco Catalyst C9300L-48T-4G-A is a specialized enterprise switch designed for high-security or complex routing environments where Power over Ethernet is not required. As part of the Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink series, it provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet data ports and four fixed 1 Gigabit SFP uplink ports. This model is engineered to deliver sophisticated network intelligence and segmentation to the access layer without the added cost of PoE hardware or 10G uplinks, making it highly efficient for connecting desktops, servers, and printers in Gigabit infrastructure.

Distinguished by its Network Advantage software license, the C9300L-48T-4G-A unlocks full enterprise routing capabilities including BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, and MPLS. It is fully capable of serving as a Fabric Edge node in a Cisco SD-Access network, supporting automated policy enforcement and VXLAN segmentation. Powered by the UADP 2.0 ASIC and StackWise-320 technology, it offers a robust, scalable, and secure solution for organizations that prioritize software features and routing flexibility over power delivery.

Key Features

Advanced Routing Intelligence

Full Layer 3 Support. Equipped with the Network Advantage license, this switch supports advanced dynamic routing protocols such as BGP, EIGRP, and MPLS. This allows the switch to actively participate in complex routing domains and WAN edge peering, providing functionality typically reserved for core routers.

SD-Access Fabric Automation

Full Fabric Edge. Unlike the Essentials model, this Advantage version enables full participation in Cisco’s Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) fabric. It supports Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and LISP, allowing for automated micro-segmentation and policy-based security that follows the user regardless of location.

Pure Data-Only Design

CAPEX Efficiency. Tailored for environments where endpoints have their own power sources (e.g., computer labs, server rooms). By excluding PoE hardware, this model reduces the initial investment and ongoing energy cooling costs while focusing resources on high-end software capabilities.

Integrated Network Security

Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA). The hardware natively supports ETA to detect malware in encrypted traffic streams without decryption. Combined with AES-128 MACsec encryption and Trustworthy Systems (Secure Boot), it ensures high-level security for sensitive data networks.

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF)

Network Isolation. Supports full VRF-Lite, allowing network administrators to create multiple virtual routing tables on a single physical switch. This is critical for secure multi-tenant environments or for completely isolating guest traffic from corporate data traffic.

StackWise-320 Resilience

Unified Management. Features StackWise-320 technology, enabling the stacking of up to 8 units with 320 Gbps of backplane throughput. This architecture provides redundancy for the control plane and data plane, ensuring continuous operation even if a member switch fails.

Application Scenarios

High-Security Government/Finance

Secure Segmentation. Ideal for government or financial institutions that require strict separation of networks (e.g., Classified vs. Unclassified) at the desktop level. The VRF capabilities and MACsec encryption allow for secure, isolated network segments on a single device connecting to non-PoE workstations.

Collapsed Core for Data-Centric Sites

Routing Hub. For small to medium sites where the endpoints are primarily servers or desktops, this switch can act as a collapsed core. Its BGP/MPLS support allows it to handle sophisticated routing to the WAN provider while aggregating 48 local data connections.

University Research Labs

Advanced Networking. Perfect for academic environments where researchers need to test complex routing protocols or require automated network provisioning via SD-Access, but do not need to power phones or access points in the lab.

Selection Guide

  • Why Network Advantage (-A)?
    Choose this model if you need specific high-end features like BGP routing, VRF-Lite segmentation, or full SD-Access VXLAN automation. If you only need basic connectivity, the Essentials (-E) model is more cost-effective.
  • Why Data Only (-T)?
    This switch is designed for non-powered devices such as desktop PCs, printers, and servers. If you do not need to power IP phones or Access Points, selecting this model avoids paying for PoE hardware you won’t use.
  • Why 1G Uplinks?
    This configuration is optimized for existing 1G fiber infrastructures. It allows you to deploy advanced network intelligence and security at the edge without the unnecessary expense of upgrading to 10G uplinks if your backbone bandwidth doesn’t require it.

  • Does C9300L-48T-4G-A support PoE?

    No. C9300L-48T-4G-A has no PoE. Use C9300L-48P or C9300L-48PF models when powered endpoints are required.
  • How is C9300L-48T-4G-A different from C9300L-48P-4G-A?

    C9300L-48T-4G-A is data-only. C9300L-48P-4G-A adds PoE+ while keeping 48 ports, 4G uplinks, and Network Advantage.
  • Can C9300L-48T-4G-A use 10G uplinks or 4 fixed 1G?

    No. C9300L-48T-4G-A has 4 fixed 1G uplinks. C9300L-48T-4X-M or other 4X models provide fixed 10G uplinks.
  • Does C9300L-48T-4G-A support StackWise-320?

    Yes. C9300L-48T-4G-A supports StackWise-320 in compatible C9300L fixed-uplink stacks.
  • When does C9300L-48T-4G-A fit routed access?

    C9300L-48T-4G-A fits routed data access when Network Advantage is required but PoE and 10G uplinks are not.
  • What no PoE, Advantage license, and StackWise-320 details matter for C9300L-48T-4G-A?

    C9300L-48T-4G-A planning centers on 48 data ports, zero PoE budget, Advantage software scope, four 1G uplinks, and StackWise-320 topology.
