Product overview
Cisco Catalyst C9300-48T-E is an enterprise access switch with a fixed configuration that is built to provide secure and reliable networks in the campus and branches. It offers 48 10 /100/1000 RJ-45 data ports to wired clients, and a modular uplink slot to enable high-speed fiber or copper aggregation which allows you to design uplink capacity to suit your requirements and still maintain everyday operations easy and predictable.
C9300 platform, which is of the Catalyst 9000 family, introduces hardware-based assurance, Layer 2/Layer 3 rich services, and automation-enabled telemetry. Network Essentials software comes with the -E bundle to provide you with the basic switching, routing and policy functionality required in most organizations, in a resilient 1RU chassis with optional redundant power and fans to achieve high availability.
