Cisco Catalyst C9200L-48P-4G-E | 48-Port PoE+ Access Switch | 4 x 1G SFP Uplinks
Overview
The Cisco Catalyst C9200L-48P-4G-E is a high-demand PoE+ access switch designed for SMBs, branch offices, retail chains, and campus edge deployments that require reliable power delivery and simplified Layer 3 networking.
It provides 48 PoE+ ports (up to 30W per port) with a default 740W PoE budget (PWR-C5-1KWAC), expandable to 1440W, making it ideal for powering Wi-Fi access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and IoT devices.
With 104 Gbps switching capacity and 77.38 Mpps forwarding, it ensures stable performance for wireless backhaul, surveillance traffic, and daily business applications.
Running Cisco IOS XE with Network Essentials, it supports Layer 3 routed access including OSPF (up to 1000 routes), EIGRP Stub, RIP, static routing, and PIM Stub multicast, delivering the right balance of simplicity and scalability for standard branch networks.
