Full English Product Description: Cisco C9200L-48PL-4X-M
1. Product Summary
Cisco C9200L-48PL-4X-M belongs to Catalyst 9200L-M fixed stackable Meraki cloud-managed Layer 3 access switch lineup.
PL = Partial PoE+, X = fixed 10G SFP+ uplink, -M = Meraki Dashboard cloud subscription licensing (term-based license only, no perpetual IOS XE license). Built on UADP 2.0 Mini ASIC and Cisco IOS XE operating system, this is a standard 1U rack-mounted switch equipped with 48×10/100/1000BASE-T Partial PoE+ RJ45 downlink ports + 4×fixed dual-rate 10G SFP+ uplink slots. Cost-optimized for branch offices, retail sites and small campus wiring closets with limited PoE terminals but requiring 10G high-speed fiber uplink to core switches.
2. Port Configuration Details
-
48×Gigabit Partial PoE+ Downlink Ports (PL: Partial PoE+): All copper ports comply with IEEE802.3at PoE+ standard (max 30W per single port); factory default PoE total budget = 370W, only partial ports can activate PoE+ simultaneously to save upfront investment, ideal for mixed deployment of desktop PCs + small quantity PoE-powered AP, VoIP phones or IP surveillance cameras.
-
4×Fixed SFP+ 10G Uplink Interfaces (X:10G SFP+): Dual-rate compatible, supporting both 1G SFP and 10G SFP+ optical transceivers, delivers high-bandwidth uplink for Wi-Fi6/6E converged traffic and future network expansion upgrade.
-
Auxiliary Ports: 1×RJ45 out-of-band Console management port, 1×USB-A port for local configuration backup & firmware upload; reserved dedicated hardware StackWise-80 stacking interface for physical stacking among identical C9200L-M switches.
3. Core Hardware Technical Specifications
-
Switching Capacity: 176 Gbps | Forwarding Rate:130.95 Mpps; MAC address table capacity:16,000 entries, shared 6MB on-chip packet buffer
-
Memory: 2GB DRAM + 4GB onboard Flash storage for IOS XE system firmware and device configurations
-
Power & PoE Budget: Preinstalled PWR-C5-600WAC AC power supply; default partial PoE budget =370W; chassis supports optional second hot-swappable redundant PSU, maximum expandable total PoE budget up to 740W after dual PSU upgrade; built-in fixed redundant cooling fans for stable thermal dissipation.
-
Stacking Technology: Cisco StackWise-80 with 80Gbps bidirectional inter-switch stacking bandwidth; maximum 8 same-model C9200L-M switches can be stacked into one unified logical switch, realizing centralized Meraki cloud administration and sub-50ms stack failover redundancy.
-
Physical Dimension: 1.73"(H) ×17.5"(W) ×12.9"(D) / 4.4×44.5×32.8cm, standard 19-inch 1U rack mount; net weight approx 4.8kg; certified FCC, CE, UL and RoHS compliance standards.
-
Operating Environment: Working temperature range: -5℃ ~ +45℃; non-condensing ambient humidity:5%~90% RH.
4. Meraki Cloud Subscription Licensing (2 tiers: Mandatory Enterprise Base / Optional Advanced Add-on; available in 1/3/5-year term subscription only)

5. Typical Application & Product Advantages
Deployment Scenarios
Cost-effective partial PoE access layer for small-to-medium branch offices, chain retail outlets, small classroom wiring closets and low-density smart buildings with limited PoE endpoints but demand for 10G high-speed fiber uplink toward core network.
Core Benefits
✔ Meraki centralized cloud management drastically reduces multi-location on-site IT maintenance cost and manual configuration workload;
✔ 370W Partial PoE+ design lowers initial hardware cost vs full PoE+ model for low PoE consumption scenarios;
✔ Fixed 4×10G SFP+ uplink reserves sufficient uplink bandwidth for growing high-speed Wi-Fi traffic and future network upgrade;
✔ StackWise-80 stacking enables flexible port expansion and equipment redundancy to improve overall network availability;
✔ Visualized Adaptive Policy configuration eliminates complex CLI programming and reduces human configuration errors.
6. Warranty & Service Information
Comes with Cisco standard limited lifetime hardware warranty; all Meraki cloud management, remote troubleshooting and licensed feature functions are valid within purchased subscription period; optional SNTC (Smart Net Total Care) advance hardware replacement service can be ordered via authorized Cisco service contract.
