FAQs

Q: Does the C9300-48T-A support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
A: No, this is a data-only model. The T designation indicates no PoE capability. For PoE+ support, consider the C9300-48P-A, or for UPOE (60W) support, the C9300-48U-A.

Q: Are uplink modules included with the switch?
A: Network modules are sold separately, allowing you to customize uplinks with 4x1G, 8x10G, 2x25G, or 2x40G options based on your core network requirements. Both Catalyst 9300 and legacy Catalyst 3850 network modules are supported.

Q: Can this switch be stacked with Catalyst 9300L models?
A: No. Catalyst 9300 modular uplink models (C9300 SKUs) use StackWise-480 and cannot be stacked with Catalyst 9300L fixed uplink models, which use StackWise-320. You can stack any combination of C9300 modular uplink models together.

Q: What are the benefits of the Network Advantage license over Network Essentials?
A: Network Advantage provides full Layer 3 routing protocols including BGP, EIGRP, OSPF, and IS-IS, plus advanced features like VRF-Lite, MACsec encryption, TrustSec, and Cisco StackWise Virtual, which are not available in the Essentials tier.

Q: Is this switch compatible with Cisco DNA Center and SD-Access?
A: Yes, the C9300-48T-A is fully compatible with Cisco DNA Center for automation, analytics, and assurance. It forms the foundational building block for Cisco Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) architecture and supports containerized applications with its x86 CPU architecture.
