C9300X-48HX-E Overview

Built to reimage connection, reinforce security and redefine experience
Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series switches are Cisco’s lead stackable enterprise access switching platform and as part of the Catalyst 9000 family, are build to transform your network to handle a hybrid world where the workplace is anywhere, endpoints could be anything, and applications are hosted all over the place.

The Catalyst 9300 Series, including the new Catalyst 9300X models, continues to shape the future with continued innovation that helps you reimagine connections, reinforce security and redefine the experience for your hybrid workforce big and small.

The Foundation of Software-Defined access

Advanced persistent security threats. The exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Mobility everywhere. Cloud adoption. All of these require a network fabric that integrates advanced hardware and software innovations to automate, secure, and simplify customer networks. The goal of this network fabric is to enable customer revenue growth by accelerating the rollout of business services.

The Cisco Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA) with Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) is the network fabric that powers business. It is an open and extensible, software-driven architecture that accelerates and simplifies your enterprise network operations. The programmable architecture frees your IT staff from time-consuming, repetitive network configuration tasks so they can focus instead on innovation that positively transforms your business. SD-Access enables policy-based automation from edge to cloud with foundational capabilities.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary uplink capabilities of the Cisco Catalyst C9300X-48HX-E? +

The C9300X-48HX-E is designed for high-performance enterprise environments, featuring flexible uplink modules that support high-speed connectivity options like 10G, 25G, 40G, and 100G. This modularity allows network administrators to scale their core or aggregation layer bandwidth requirements as traffic demands increase, ensuring long-term investment protection for your campus network infrastructure.

How does the Power over Ethernet (PoE) capacity perform on this specific switch model? +

This model provides robust PoE capabilities, supporting the latest IEEE standards to power high-density endpoints such as Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, IP cameras, and advanced IoT devices. It delivers consistent power budgeting across all 48 ports, ensuring stable operation for energy-hungry peripherals while maintaining smart power management features to optimize electricity consumption during off-peak operational hours.

Can the Cisco C9300X-48HX-E be stacked with other units in the Catalyst 9300X series? +

Yes, this switch supports Cisco StackWise technology, which allows you to combine multiple units into a single logical switch. This simplifies management by providing a unified control plane and enables hitless failover, ensuring high availability for your network. Stacking also provides simplified configuration and monitoring across the entire stack through a single management IP address.

What is the primary benefit of the 'E' Network Advantage licensing included with this switch? +

The 'E' suffix denotes the Network Advantage license, which unlocks the full suite of advanced Layer 3 routing protocols, including OSPF, EIGRP, ISIS, and BGP. This licensing level is essential for complex campus architectures that require advanced segmentation, policy-based automation, and robust software-defined networking capabilities to manage large-scale enterprise traffic flows effectively.

Is this switch suitable for high-density campus backbone deployments? +

Absolutely. With its multi-gigabit port density and high-throughput switching capacity, this unit is engineered for demanding campus backbones. It effectively manages high-bandwidth requirements and provides the low-latency switching necessary for modern digital workspaces. Its architecture is built to handle heavy traffic loads while providing the sophisticated Quality of Service (QoS) features needed for voice, video, and data convergence.

How do I manage the Cisco C9300X-48HX-E within a modern software-defined network? +

This switch supports Cisco DNA Center, which facilitates centralized management, automation, and assurance across your entire fabric. Additionally, it features an open API architecture, enabling seamless integration with third-party orchestration tools. For traditional environments, administrators can continue to use the web-based UI or the industry-standard Command Line Interface (CLI) for granular device-level configuration and troubleshooting.

Does the C9300X-48HX-E support advanced security features to protect network traffic? +

The switch integrates comprehensive security measures, including MACsec-256 encryption, TrustSec for identity-based policy enforcement, and Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA). These features work together to identify threats within encrypted traffic without the need for decryption, providing a multi-layered defense strategy that secures your network against both internal and external vulnerabilities at the hardware level.

How does this switch maintain high reliability in mission-critical environments? +

Reliability is built into the C9300X platform through hardware redundancy features, such as dual-redundant hot-swappable power supplies and modular field-replaceable fans. These components ensure that the switch remains operational during hardware maintenance or unforeseen power failures, significantly reducing downtime and maintaining continuous connectivity for essential enterprise services and applications.
