Questions about this item

What speed does the 10/100/1000Base-T interface cap at in practice?

Each of the 48 ports negotiates up to 1000 Mbps over twisted pair cabling, so the practical ceiling is 1 Gbps per port.

What rack dimensions and weight should I plan for when mounting the C9300-48U-E?

The unit is 1.7 inches high, 17.5 inches wide and 17.5 inches deep, weighing 17.03 lb, fitting a standard 1U rack space.

How do I install the switch and which step is often missed?

Mount the switch in the rack, connect the AC power supply, link the 48 twisted-pair cables, then enable stacking and configure the Network Essentials licence before putting ports into production.
