The Cisco Catalyst 4500 E-Series features 48 ports with 24 Multigigabit ports and 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, all with RJ-45 interfaces. The Multigigabit ports support speeds of 2.5/5 Gbps and 10GBASE-T, while the remaining ports deliver 10/100/1000 Mbps connectivity. All ports are nonblocking up to 1000 Mbps, ensuring consistent performance across your network infrastructure.

The Cisco C9300-NM-2Y is a Catalyst 9300 network module featuring 2 x 25GE (25 Gigabit Ethernet) ports designed for high-speed data networking. This module supports 25GBase-X optical connectivity via SFP28 transceiver slots, making it ideal for enterprises requiring multi-gigabit uplink capacity. We offer this module as part of our comprehensive Cisco networking portfolio available from barcodesinc.com.

Yes, the WS-X4748-RJ45-E supports Cisco UPOE (Ultra Power over Ethernet) with the capability to deliver up to 60W on all ports in the line card. It also supports IEEE 802.3af/at and Cisco pre-standard PoE, making it ideal for powering IP phones, wireless access points, video cameras, and other PoE-enabled devices in enterprise and commercial environments.

Yes, the C9300-NM-2Y is specifically designed as an expansion module for Cisco Catalyst 9300 series switches. It installs into the available expansion slots on compatible Catalyst 9300 chassis to add dual 25GE uplink capacity. Contact us today to verify compatibility with your specific switch model and deployment requirements.

The switch includes comprehensive security capabilities such as IEEE 802.1ae (MACsec-256) hardware encryption, port security with MAC address locking, RADIUS/TACACS+ authentication, ACL support for up to 1,024 rules, and DoS prevention. These features help protect your unified communications infrastructure from unauthorized access and network attacks while maintaining compliance with enterprise security standards.

The C9300-NM-2Y utilizes SFP28 transceiver slots and supports 25GBase-X optical fiber connectivity, enabling deployment over long-distance fiber runs with minimal latency. This makes it suitable for data center interconnects, campus backbone networks, and high-performance computing environments. Visit barcodesinc.com to explore compatible SFP28 transceivers we offer.

Absolutely. The WS-X4748-RJ45-E is designed for campus and branch applications requiring enhanced performance for large file transfers and network backups. It supports Layer 2 to Layer 4 Jumbo Frame support up to 9216 bytes, enabling efficient handling of large data packets without fragmentation, which significantly improves throughput for backup and file transfer operations.

The C9300-NM-2Y is ideal for organizations needing to add high-speed uplink capacity to existing Catalyst 9300 deployments without replacing the entire switch. Common use cases include data center aggregation, multi-campus connectivity, and supporting bandwidth-intensive applications like video streaming and large file transfers. Our team can help you design a network architecture that meets your throughput requirements.

The Catalyst 4500 E-Series offers extensive management options including SNMPv3 support, RMON-MIB for statistics and monitoring, embedded GUI, and compatibility with Cisco Network Assistant for network-level management. It supports multiple user privilege levels in CLI (Levels 1, 7, and 15) and provides comprehensive MIB support for integration with your existing network management systems.

The C9300-NM-2Y provides 2 x 25GE ports, making it a compact solution for organizations requiring dual high-speed uplinks without the cost and complexity of larger modules with 8 or more ports. It's an excellent choice for mid-sized deployments or as a supplementary module in larger network architectures.
