Product overview
Cisco Catalyst C9200-48P-A is a reliable PoE-intensive floor access switch in the enterprise, branches, and campus applications. It operates forty-eight 10/100/1000 copper ports with PoE + and supports access points, phones, cameras, and IoT endpoints without injectors, and has modular uplinks that enable you to select the appropriate fiber or copper aggregation today and as your needs increase.
The C9200 family, part of the Catalyst 9000 family, introduces hardware-based trust, enhanced Layer 3 functionality and automation-capable operations into the wiring closet. The -A bundle has Network Advantage software, allowing access to more routing, segmentation, and policy solutions so that you can scale, secure and standardize access between sites with confidence.
