Cisco Catalyst 9148V Switch : 48x PoE+ Ports , 10G SFP+ , SDN-Ready
The Cisco Catalyst 9148V Switch (C9148V-48P+IV-K9) is a
high-density, Power over Ethernet (PoE+) enabled switch designed
for modern enterprise networks. With 48x Gigabit Ethernet PoE+
ports (up to 30W per port) and 4x 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, it delivers
scalable connectivity for IP phones, wireless access points (APs),
and IoT devices. Built for SDN (Software-Defined Networking) and
cloud-managed deployments, this switch integrates seamlessly with
Cisco DNA Center for automated provisioning, security, and
analytics.
Key Features & Benefits
✔ High PoE Power Budget (740W) – Supports power-hungry devices like
PTZ cameras, Wi-Fi 6 APs, and digital signage.
✔ 10G Uplinks for Future-Proofing – Flexible SFP+ ports enable
high-speed backbone connectivity.
✔ Enterprise-Grade Security – Features MACsec encryption, Cisco
TrustSec, and ETA (Encrypted Traffic Analysis) for threat
detection.
✔ SDN & Cloud-Ready – Works with Cisco SD-Access for
policy-based automation and zero-trust networking.
✔ Energy Efficient – IEEE 802.3az (EEE) compliance reduces power
consumption during low traffic.
