About the Cisco Catalyst 9300L-48P

The Cisco Catalyst 9300L-48P-4G-E is the PoE+ variant of the Catalyst 9300L family — a cost-optimised Catalyst 9000 platform designed for enterprise access deployments that require the Catalyst 9000 software feature set (IOS-XE, DNA Center, MACsec) without the full programmable ASIC of the standard 9300. The L suffix denotes a simplified hardware platform at a lower price point.

With 505W of total PoE+ budget across 48 ports, the C9300L-48P-4G-E can simultaneously power a full floor of Cisco IP phones, Wi-Fi 6 access points, and IoT devices. The 4 × 1G SFP uplinks connect to distribution switches — with StackWise-160 stacking available via optional stacking modules to link up to 8 switches into a single logical device.

Running Cisco IOS-XE, the 9300L-48P-4G-E supports the full enterprise feature set: 802.1X with ISE, VLAN segmentation (4,094 VLANs), QoS marking and queuing, DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IPSG, and hardware MACsec encryption. It integrates with Cisco DNA Center for intent-based networking, automated SD-Access policy, and AI-driven analytics.

The 9300L is positioned between the Catalyst 9200L and the full 9300 — offering higher PoE budget and StackWise stacking versus the 9200L, while being more affordable than the full 9300 with its modular uplinks and higher-performance ASIC. It is the right choice for organisations standardised on the Catalyst 9000 platform who need large PoE budgets at a managed cost.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What is the PoE budget on the C9300L-48P-4G-E?

505W total PoE+ budget — distributed across all 48 ports, supporting simultaneous powering of IP phones, Wi-Fi 6 APs, and IoT devices.

Q. How does 9300L differ from 9300?

The 9300L uses a simplified ASIC and has fixed uplink ports (not modular), while the 9300 has a full programmable ASIC and modular field-replaceable uplink modules. The 9300L is more cost-effective; the 9300 is more feature-rich.
