About the Cisco Catalyst 9200-48P PoE+ Switch
The Cisco Catalyst 9200-48P PoE+ Switch delivers 48 ports of 1G Ethernet with integrated PoE+ capability and four modular uplink slots supporting 1G or 10G SFP/SFP+ connectivity, making it ideal for enterprise access-layer deployments requiring high port density and flexible uplink options. This 1U rack-mount switch combines line-rate performance with enterprise-grade security and programmability, addressing the needs of network engineers and IT infrastructure teams managing mid-to-large campus and branch networks.
Built on Cisco's proven Catalyst 9200 platform, the C9200-48P-A runs Cisco IOS XE and supports a comprehensive suite of programmability standards including NETCONF, RESTCONF, and gRPC with YANG data models for automated network orchestration. The switch delivers 176 Gbps switching capacity and 130.95 Mpps forwarding rate across its 48 downlink ports, while the modular uplink architecture allows organizations to scale bandwidth without replacing hardware. With a 740W total PoE power budget, the switch can simultaneously power up to 48 networked devices—ideal for dense IoT, VoIP, and wireless access point deployments. Advanced security capabilities including IEEE 802.1X, MACsec-256 encryption on downlinks, DHCP Snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and Port Security protect against Layer 2 and Layer 3 threats. Stacking technology via Cisco StackWise-160 enables up to 8 switches to operate as a single logical entity, simplifying management and improving resilience. The 32,000 MAC address table and support for 4,094 VLANs provide enterprise-scale segmentation and scalability. Optional redundant power supply support ensures business continuity in critical environments.
