Cisco Meraki C9300-48P-M 48-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch with Modular Uplink, Network Advantage

Cisco Catalyst C9300-48P-M

48-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch with Modular Uplinks

High-Density Enterprise PoE+ Switching

The Cisco Catalyst C9300-48P-M is a high-density enterprise managed switch designed to deliver reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and integrated Power over Ethernet Plus for modern business networks. It features 48 x 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ RJ-45 ports, allowing compatible network devices to receive both data and power through a single Ethernet cable.

The switch combines the Cisco Catalyst 9300 hardware platform with Meraki cloud management capabilities, providing centralized visibility, configuration, monitoring, and network management. With modular uplink support, advanced switching capabilities, and StackWise-480 technology, the C9300-48P-M is well suited for enterprise access-layer deployments.

Modular Uplink Flexibility

The C9300-48P-M supports modular uplink options, allowing organizations to select an appropriate uplink module according to their network architecture and bandwidth requirements. This provides flexibility when connecting the access switch to aggregation, distribution, or core network infrastructure.

High-Performance Enterprise Switching

The C9300-48P-M provides up to 256 Gbps switching capacity and up to 190.48 Mpps forwarding performance. These capabilities enable efficient handling of high volumes of enterprise data, voice, video, wireless, and IoT traffic.

Meraki Cloud Management

The C9300-48P-M is part of the Cisco Catalyst 9300-M platform and is designed for centralized management through the Cisco Meraki Dashboard. Cloud-based management helps administrators configure, monitor, troubleshoot, and manage network infrastructure from a centralized interface, reducing operational complexity across distributed deployments.

Centralized Network Visibility

Meraki management provides centralized visibility into connected devices, network performance, traffic, configuration, and operational status. This makes the C9300-48P-M suitable for organizations managing multiple switches and locations from a unified cloud-based platform.

Enterprise Network Security

The Catalyst 9300 platform provides enterprise security capabilities designed to protect users, endpoints, applications, and network infrastructure against unauthorized access and common network threats.

StackWise Technology

The Catalyst 9300 platform supports StackWise-480 technology, allowing compatible switches to operate as a single logical system. Stacking helps simplify configuration, management, redundancy, and network expansion for enterprise access-layer deployments.

VLAN, QoS and Traffic Management

The C9300-48P-M supports enterprise traffic management capabilities including VLAN segmentation and Quality of Service (QoS). These features help administrators separate network traffic and prioritize business-critical voice, video, wireless, and data applications.
