Cisco® Catalyst® 1000 operate on Cisco IOS® Software and support simple device management and network management via a Command-Line Interface (CLI) as well as an on-box web UI. These switches deliver enhanced network security, network reliability, and operational efficiency for Small and Medium Sized (SMB) organizations.
What are the key networking features of the Cisco C1000-48P-4G-L?
The Cisco C1000-48P-4G-L is a Catalyst 1000 switch featuring 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet (POE) capability, plus 4 additional 1G SFP uplink ports for flexible connectivity. This configuration makes it ideal for mid-sized deployments requiring both powered access ports and high-speed uplink options. We offer this model as part of our comprehensive Cisco networking portfolio at barcodesinc.com.
Is the Cisco C1000-48P-4G-L suitable for warehouse and logistics environments?
Yes, the C1000-48P-4G-L is well-suited for warehouse and logistics operations where you need to power network devices like barcode scanners, mobile computers, and RFID readers across multiple locations. The integrated POE functionality eliminates the need for separate power supplies at each access point, simplifying deployment and reducing infrastructure costs. Contact us today to discuss how this switch integrates with your AIDC infrastructure.
What are the port specifications and connectivity options on this Cisco switch?
The C1000-48P-4G-L provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports with POE support for connected devices, plus 4 uplink ports configured as 1G SFP connections for high-speed backbone connectivity. This dual-port architecture allows you to maintain high-bandwidth uplinks while delivering power and data to edge devices throughout your facility.

How does the POE capability benefit my barcode scanning and RFID deployment?
Power over Ethernet on the C1000-48P-4G-L eliminates the need for dedicated electrical outlets at each barcode scanner, mobile computer dock, or RFID reader location, reducing installation complexity and costs. This is particularly valuable in warehouse environments where you may need to deploy dozens of networked devices across large floor areas. Our team can help you design a POE-powered AIDC network that maximizes efficiency—contact us today.
What makes the Cisco C1000 series appropriate for enterprise-grade AIDC networks?
The Catalyst 1000 series, including the C1000-48P-4G-L, is designed for reliable, manageable enterprise deployments with integrated security features and remote management capabilities. Its combination of 48 powered access ports and high-speed SFP uplinks provides the scalability and performance needed for mission-critical barcode scanning, mobile computing, and RFID operations. We offer comprehensive support and integration services—visit barcodesinc.com or contact us today for deployment assistance.
Can I use the SFP ports for connecting to other network infrastructure?
Yes, the four 1G SFP uplink ports on the C1000-48P-4G-L provide flexible connectivity options for connecting to core network infrastructure, stacking additional switches, or linking to fiber-based backbone networks. The SFP design allows you to choose the appropriate transceiver type for your specific network topology and distance requirements. Our team at Barcodes Inc can help you select the right SFP modules and design your network architecture.
