Cisco Catalyst 9200L-48T-4G-A - Managed Layer 3 Switch, Grey

The Cisco Catalyst 9200L-48T-4G-A 48-Port Managed Layer 3 Switch (Grey) serves as a fixed-configuration access-layer hub for enterprise branch offices and campus networks. It features 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports for data traffic from end devices and access points; as a non-PoE model, it does not provide power delivery. The unit offers a 104 Gbit/s total switching capacity and a 77.38 Mpps forwarding rate to prevent bottlenecks. It uses standard Layer 3 routing protocols, including OSPF, EIGRP, and RIP, for both IPv4 and IPv6 environments. This hardware allows administrators to build segmented, policy-driven networks that maintain connectivity during periods of high demand.

Measuring 445 × 228 × 44 mm, the 1U rack-mountable chassis is designed for standard server cabinets. The switch consumes 125 W of power and generates 42 dB of noise during operation. Administrators can configure the hardware remotely via web-based management interfaces or the command-line interface (CLI). To support larger deployments, the platform is stackable, allowing up to eight units to function as a single logical entity. Traffic flow and access are managed through quality of service (QoS) functions, ARP inspection, and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) loop protection.

• Four SFP module slots for fiber uplinks to connect the switch to core network infrastructure.
• Support for up to 1,024 active VLANs for multi-tenant network segmentation and traffic isolation.
• Hardware-based access control list (ACL) with 1,500 rule entries for enforcing security policies.
• MAC address table capacity of 16,000 entries and 3,000 static routing entries for large device deployments.
• 6 MB packet buffer to prevent data loss during traffic bursts.
• Redundant power supply (RPS) compatibility for continuous uptime in mission-critical environments.
