Description

The Cisco C9400-LC-48T is a high-density line card module designed for Catalyst 9400 Series modular switches, delivering 48 ports of 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Ideal for enterprise campus and branch deployments requiring scalable, non-PoE access layer connectivity, this line card supports up to 480 Gbps bandwidth per slot with compatible supervisor engines and features hardware MACsec-256 encryption for enhanced security.

Features

Supports 48 non-blocking 10/100/1000BASE-T ports for high-density access
- Hardware-based MACsec-256 encryption for wire-speed security
- Compatible with Cisco DNA Center for simplified automation and management
- SD-Access ready for policy-based segmentation and zero-trust security
- Layer 2 switching with VLAN support, STP/RSTP/MSTP
- Layer 3 routing capabilities (IP Base or IP Services depending on license)
- Advanced QoS with 8 egress queues per port
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) for reduced power consumption during idle periods
- Jumbo frame support up to 9216 bytes for enhanced throughput
- Comprehensive SNMP, CLI, and web-based management
- StackWise Virtual support for chassis-level redundancy and scalability
- Hot-swappable with tool-less, front-accessible installation

FAQs

Q: What Catalyst 9400 chassis models support the C9400-LC-48T?
A: The C9400-LC-48T is compatible with all Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series chassis including the C9404R (4-slot), C9407R (7-slot), and C9410R (10-slot) models when paired with a compatible supervisor engine.

Q: Does the C9400-LC-48T support Power over Ethernet?
A: No, the C9400-LC-48T is a non-PoE line card providing data-only connectivity. For PoE+ or UPOE support, consider the C9400-LC-48P, C9400-LC-48UX, or C9400-LC-48H line cards.

Q: Can I mix PoE and non-PoE line cards in the same chassis?
A: Yes, you can mix the C9400-LC-48T (non-PoE) with PoE-capable line cards in a single Catalyst 9400 chassis, subject to supervisor engine compatibility and power supply capacity.

Q: What Layer 3 routing protocols does this line card support?
A: The C9400-LC-48T supports advanced Layer 3 routing including static routing, OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, VRF-Lite, and multicast protocols such as PIM, depending on the software license tier (Network Essentials or Network Advantage).

Q: Is the C9400-LC-48T hot-swappable?
A: Yes, the line card supports hot-swap insertion and removal with tool-less installation, enabling module changes without shutting down the chassis or disrupting network traffic to other modules.
