C9350-48HM Description
The C9350-48HM is a Cisco C9350 Series Smart Switch for 48-port campus closets moving from 1G to 2.5G access on their existing copper. All 48 Multigigabit ports run from 10M to 2.5G with up to 90W of UPOE+, and one ASIC switches 640 Gbps behind a 200G uplink slot. The default 850W supply sets aside 570W for PoE, and the minimum software release is Cisco IOS XE 26.2.1.

Product Performance
Key Features
Six ports can draw the full 90W on the default 850W supply, which leaves 570W for PoE, or about 12W per port if all 48 draw at once. Heavier powered loads call for a second or third supply.
Every downlink negotiates 10M, 100M, 1G or 2.5G. All four speeds run over Cat5e at the full 100 m.
A single Silicon One A100/L ASIC switches 640 Gbps and forwards 476.16 Mpps with 18 MB of packet buffer. That is the full load of 48 ports at 2.5G plus a 200G uplink, counted in both directions.
Application Scenarios
On an open office floor with closely spaced Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 access points, each access point links at 2.5G and takes its power from a UPOE+ port on the floor switch.
Desk areas connect their IP phones to the same closet switch as the access points, and each phone draws power from the port that carries its traffic.
In buildings that keep their existing copper cabling, next-generation endpoints that need more than 1 Gbps link at 2.5G without new horizontal runs.

C9350-48HM differs from C9350-48HX in port speed: C9350-48HM stops at 2.5G per port, 640 Gbps of switching and 200G of uplink, while the dual-ASIC model reaches 10G, 1,760 Gbps and 400G. Floors whose access points need 5G or 10G links move to C9350-48HX. C9350-48HXN fits when 12 ports at 10G and 36 at 5G are enough, though its default 850W supply leaves 470W of PoE against 570W here. Closets of 60W devices on 1G links can drop to C9350-48U, which caps PoE at 2880W and switches 496 Gbps.
PoE Power Planning

PoE standard |
UPOE+ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4), up to 90W per port on all 48 ports |
|
Default power supply |
PWR-C2-850WAC-I (850W AC) |
|
Default PoE budget |
570W: 6 ports at 90W, 9 ports at 60W, or 19 ports at 30W; total each device class times its port count and compare it with the budget of the chosen supplies |
|
With a second 500W, 850W or 1600W supply |
1070W, 1420W or 2170W |
|
Three supplies on the 850W primary |
Up to 3770W, with two added 1600W supplies |
|
1600W primary in place of the 850W unit |
1320W alone; 1820W, 2170W or 2920W with a second 500W, 850W or 1600W supply |
|
60W on all 48 ports |
2880W: a 1600W primary with a second 1600W supply gives 2920W; on the 850W primary it takes three supplies, such as 850W + 850W + 1600W at 3020W |
|
90W on all 48 ports |
4320W, reached only with three 1600W supplies |
|
Input voltage |
Budgets that include a 1600W supply assume 200โ240V input; on 115V each 1600W supply delivers 1200W |
Ordering Checklist
- Subscription tier: Order the Access Tier 1 Large (48 ports) subscription, LIC-CS-AC1-L-E for Essentials or LIC-CS-AC1-L-A for Advantage, for at least 36 months. Every member of a stack must run the same license level.
- Uplink module: Add C9350-NM-2C, C9350-NM-8Y or C9350-NM-8M as its own line. The base switch ships without a module, and C9350-NM-4C and C9350-NM-8L are not supported on it.
- Primary and additional supplies: Replace the default 850W unit with PWR-C2-1600WAC-IUP and add two PWR-C2-1600WAC-I/2 when all 48 ports must deliver 90W on 200โ240V input. Without added supplies the PoE budget stays at 570W.
- Stacking cables: Select STACK-T1A-50CM, STACK-T1A-1M or STACK-T1A-3M= for a data stack, and CAB-SPWR-35CM or CAB-SPWR-100CM only for StackPower+. No stack cables are included, and Catalyst 9300 stack cables are not compatible.
- Power cords: Select one cord per supply: CAB-TA cords such as CAB-TA-NA fit the 500W and 850W units, and C9K-PWR-CAB-AC cords such as C9K-PWR-CAB-AC-US fit 1600W units. The default 850W unit with added 1600W supplies needs both cord families.
- HSECK9 for IPsec: IPsec needs OS Advantage and one HSECK9 per switch, every stack member included. Give Cisco the Smart Account and Virtual Account at order so SLAC is factory-installed; Catalyst Center cannot generate SLAC for this series.
