C9404R-48U-BNDL-E Description
C9404R-48U-BNDL-E is a Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series 4-slot access switch bundle with a C9404R chassis, one C9400-LC-48U UPOE line card, and Cisco DNA Essentials licensing.
This SKU fits a smaller modular access closet where the project wants the C9404R chassis and 48 first-day copper UPOE ports, but does not need the Advantage-tier software order. The hardware profile stays the same as the Advantage bundle; the procurement decision centers on Essentials licensing and the supervisor, power, and PoE plan.
Before quoting, confirm the supervisor engine, Cisco DNA Essentials term, UPOE endpoint count, power supply count, rack space, support coverage, and shipping window with Layer23-Switch.

Product Performance
Key Features
The C9404R chassis fits access designs that need Catalyst 9400 modularity in a smaller six-rack-unit footprint with separate supervisor, line-card, fan, and power-supply service points.
The included C9400-LC-48U line card gives the first-day build 48 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports with PoE, PoE+, and Cisco UPOE support.
The DNA-E bundle position is useful when the network design can use Cisco DNA Essentials licensing instead of an Advantage-tier quote.
C9404R supports multiple Catalyst 9400 supervisor options, so the exact supervisor model should be checked against the design, software release, uplink, and redundancy requirements.
The chassis has two line-card slots, allowing the deployment to add another supported Catalyst 9400 line card when the access closet needs more copper or fiber interfaces.
Because the chassis supports up to four power supply modules, procurement should size AC or DC input, wattage, quantity, and redundancy around the expected powered-device load.
Application Scenarios
Use C9404R-48U-BNDL-E when the first phase needs one 48-port 1G UPOE line card and the approved software tier is Cisco DNA Essentials.
Choose this SKU when the site needs a modular Catalyst 9400 access chassis but does not need the larger line-card capacity of a 7-slot or 10-slot chassis.
Use the bundle when purchasing teams want a defined 4-slot chassis and C9400-LC-48U starting configuration while leaving supervisor, power, support, and software-term details to the final BOM check.

- C9404R-48U-BNDL-E keeps the compact 4-slot C9404R chassis and one 48-port UPOE line card, while aligning the order to Cisco DNA Essentials.
- C9404R-48U-BNDL-A is the closest hardware match, but it changes the software tier to Cisco DNA Advantage.
- Move to a 7-slot or 10-slot Catalyst 9400 bundle only when the access closet needs more line-card growth, not merely because the first-day port count is 48.
Selection Guide
1. Choose this SKU for a compact Essentials build
Select C9404R-48U-BNDL-E when the site needs a 4-slot Catalyst 9400 chassis with 48 UPOE ports and Cisco DNA Essentials licensing.
2. Compare the Advantage SKU when features drive the order
If the required feature set points to Cisco DNA Advantage, use the C9404R-48U-BNDL-A quote path instead of changing the hardware plan.
3. Check future line-card growth early
The C9404R chassis has two line-card slots, so confirm whether one spare line-card slot is enough for the access closet lifecycle.
4. Confirm PoE and power supply sizing together
Review endpoint power draw, power supply quantity, redundancy mode, and power cords before releasing the order.
