Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Network Essentials and Network Advantage licenses?
Network Essentials provides foundational switching capabilities including Layer 2, static routing, and basic security. Network Advantage adds advanced features such as full dynamic routing (OSPF, EIGRP, BGP), VRF, VXLAN, SGT, and enhanced security including MACsec-256 on C9200CX models.
Can C9200-48T-A be stacked with other Catalyst 9200 models?
Yes, the C9200-48T-A can be stacked with other C9200 models (modular uplink SKUs) using StackWise-160 technology. However, mixed stacking with C9200L (fixed uplink) or C9200CX (compact) models is not supported.
What is the maximum power consumption of this switch?
Under typical operating conditions with no PoE loading, the C9200-48T-A consumes approximately 56W. With a 125W power supply, the switch can support various modular uplink configurations while maintaining energy-efficient operation.
Does this switch support software-defined access (SD-Access)?
Yes, the C9200-48T-A with Network Advantage license supports SD-Access as a fabric edge device, enabling policy-based automation, network segmentation, and unified management through Cisco Catalyst Center.
Installation & Operational Notes
Important Considerations
- Ensure adequate ventilation and maintain ambient temperature between -5°C to +45°C for optimal performance
- Use shielded cables for installations in locations other than telecom centers to meet EMC compliance
- Verify compatibility of network modules and transceivers using the Cisco Compatibility Matrix
- For stacking configurations, use official Cisco StackWise cables and ensure all members have the same license level
- Plan for appropriate rack space considering chassis dimensions and cable management requirements
- Configure redundant power supplies for critical deployments to ensure continuous operation
