Full English Product Description: Cisco C9200L-48T-4G-M
1. Product Overview
Cisco C9200L-48T-4G-M belongs to Catalyst 9200L-M fixed stackable enterprise access switch portfolio; suffix -M stands for Meraki cloud dashboard centralized management with subscription-based licensing instead of traditional perpetual IOS XE licenses, built on UADP 2.0 Mini ASIC architectureCisco Meraki. It is a standard 1U rack-mount Layer3 non-PoE data switch equipped with 48×10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 copper downlink ports plus 4×fixed built-in 1G SFP uplink slots, tailored for non-PoE desktop terminal access in branch offices, enterprise office areas, classroom wired PC access and small campus IDF closets requiring Gigabit fiber uplink to core aggregation switchesCisco.
