C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A Description
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A is a Cisco Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink stackable access switch for campus access deployments that need dense copper connectivity, multigigabit endpoints, and 40G aggregation uplinks in a compact Catalyst 9300L platform. This Network Advantage model combines 12 mGig ports supporting 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G speeds with 36 additional 10M/100M/1G copper ports, two fixed 40G QSFP+ uplinks, Cisco UPOE Type 3 support with a 675W default PoE budget from the PWR-C1-1100WAC-P power supply, StackWise-320 stacking, and Cisco-confirmed switching capacity of 472 Gbps standalone or 792 Gbps when stacked.

Product Performance
Key Features
The switch combines twelve 100M to 10G multigigabit ports with thirty-six 10M to 1G copper ports, so the access plan can reserve mGig drops for higher-speed endpoints.
The `-A` suffix ties C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A to Network Advantage and the matching C9300L Cisco DNA Advantage 48-port term license family.
Two 40G QSFP+ uplinks are part of the base SKU, which keeps the uplink decision separate from C9300 modular network module ordering.
Cisco lists C9300L-48UXG-2Q among UPOE switches that operate as IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 devices when that mode is enabled.
C9300L fixed-uplink models use StackWise-320, and Cisco lists C9300L stack kit options for physical stack builds.
The official power table maps C9300L-48UXG-2Q to PWR-C1-1100WAC-P by default and shows 675W default available PoE.
Application Scenarios
C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A fits campus closets where selected access points or edge devices need mGig copper and the aggregation design uses 40G QSFP+ uplinks.
Select this SKU for sites that need the C9300L-48UXG-2Q hardware profile under Network Advantage rather than the Network Essentials `-E` order line.
Add this model to a same-license Catalyst 9300L fixed-uplink stack plan when the quote also includes the required StackWise-320 kit, cable length, power, and optics scope.

- In a C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A vs C9300L-48UXG-2Q-E comparison, the hardware profile, 40G uplinks, PoE value, and performance rows match; the difference is Network Advantage versus Network Essentials.
- The C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A difference from C9300L-48UXG-4X-A is the fixed uplink format: two 40G QSFP+ ports versus four 10G/1G SFP+ ports.
- For C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A vs C9300L-24UXG-2Q-A, the comparison separates a 48-port 12-mGig access build from a 24-port 8-mGig access build.
- The which model to choose review should settle license tier, port count, uplink media, PoE budget, and StackWise-320 materials before optics and power cords are finalized.
Selection Guide
1. Choose the C9300L-48UXG-2Q Advantage line
Select C9300L-48UXG-2Q-A when the BOM requires Network Advantage, twelve mGig access ports, thirty-six 1G access ports, and two built-in 40G QSFP+ uplinks.
2. Use the E suffix for Essentials licensing
Move to C9300L-48UXG-2Q-E only when the same C9300L-48UXG-2Q hardware should be ordered with Network Essentials and the matching Essentials subscription family.
3. Keep 4X for SFP+ uplink designs
Use C9300L-48UXG-4X-A when the access switch should keep Network Advantage but terminate on four 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks instead of two 40G QSFP+ ports.
4. Reduce to C9300L-24UXG-2Q-A for smaller access blocks
Choose C9300L-24UXG-2Q-A when the design still needs 40G QSFP+ uplinks and Network Advantage but only needs 8 mGig ports plus 16 1G copper ports.

|
UPOE model class |
C9300L-48UXG-2Q is listed as a UPOE Type 3 switch when 802.3bt mode is enabled |
Match powered endpoints to the 60W Type 3 class instead of a PoE+ access model |
|
Default PoE budget |
675W with PWR-C1-1100WAC-P as the primary power supply |
Size endpoint power demand against the default switch budget before quote approval |
|
Secondary power planning |
Cisco lists higher PoE values when secondary power supplies are added |
Confirm redundancy and total endpoint draw before adding extra power supplies |
|
StackPower boundary |
Cisco notes that Catalyst 9300L Series switches do not support StackPower |
Plan power per switch rather than as a StackPower pool |
