Future-Proof Cisco Switch : 1T Stacking , MACsec Security & IoT
Scalability
The Cisco Catalyst 9300-48UXM-E is a next-generation
enterprise-grade switch designed for high-performance networking,
security, and IoT scalability. Built for modern IT environments, it
delivers 1T StackWise stacking bandwidth, hardware-accelerated
MACsec encryption, and flexible multi-Gigabit connectivity, making
it ideal for SD-Access, Wi-Fi 6, and IoT deployments.
Key Features & Benefits
✅ High-Speed Stacking & Scalability – Supports StackWise-1T (1 Tbps
stacking bandwidth) for seamless expansion across up to 8 switches,
simplifying management and improving redundancy.
✅ Enterprise-Grade Security – MACsec (802.1AE) encryption ensures
data protection at every hop, while Cisco TrustSec & ISE
integration enables role-based access control.
✅ IoT & Multi-Gigabit Ready – 48x Multi-Gig (1G/2.5G/5G/10G) ports
with PoE++ (60W per port, 1.5kW total) power next-gen devices like
Wi-Fi 6 APs, IP cameras, and industrial IoT sensors.
✅ Software-Defined Networking (SDN) Ready – Runs Cisco IOS-XE,
supporting DNA Center automation, REST APIs, and edge compute for
programmable networks.
✅ High Availability & Reliability – Modular uplinks (up to 100G),
redundant power supplies, and 440Gbps switching capacity ensure
uninterrupted performance.
