Cisco C9300X-48HX-A Catalyst 9300X Switch – 48x 10G mGig UPOE+, Network Advantage

About the C9300X-48HX-A

The C9300X-48HX-A puts all 48 of its ports at 100M to 10G multigigabit, with UPOE+ (90 W) on each. This 1U Catalyst 9300X runs Cisco IOS XE with the Network Advantage software tier, switches 1,760 Gbps and forwards 1309 Mpps. The C9300X-48HX-E is the same switch with Network Essentials.

The power supplies set the PoE budget, and the included 1100 W power supply (PWR-C1-1100WAC-P) gives 590 W. One 1900 W power supply (PWR-C1-1900WAC-P or PWR-C1-1900WHV-T) gives 1,390 W. With a 1900 W power supply in place, a second power supply takes the budget to 1,740 W with 350 W, 2,105 W with 715 W, 2,490 W with 1,100 W, or 3,290 W with 1,900 W.

No network module is included. Four C9300X network modules fit: the C9300X-NM-8M (8x 10G/1G multigigabit copper), C9300X-NM-8Y (8x 25G/10G/1G SFP28), C9300X-NM-2C (2x 100G/40G QSFP) and C9300X-NM-4C (4x 100G/40G QSFP28). The switch stacks up to eight members over StackWise-1T at 1 Tbps, and with Catalyst 9300 switches at 480 Gbps.
