Cisco A9K-48P10G-SE-UPG 48-Port 1G to 10G Upgrade License | SE LC — A9K-48P10G-SE-UPG

Raise interface speed from 1G to 10G across 48 ports with Cisco A9K-48P10G-SE-UPG. This upgrade license is designed for environments that need more bandwidth from an installed SE LC platform without moving to a full hardware refresh. For infrastructure teams, that means a cleaner path to higher port performance while protecting prior platform investment. The value is in precision. Instead of overbuying new equipment to solve a speed bottleneck, you can extend the capability of the existing system through a defined software entitlement. That helps procurement stay aligned with actual network demand and gives architects a practical way to scale uplink or service capacity in place. This license is a strong fit for organizations managing traffic growth, service expansion, or interface modernization on Cisco platforms. It supports a measured upgrade strategy where the hardware footprint remains stable and the licensing layer carries the change. For enterprise networks, that often means faster approval cycles, less disruption, and a more efficient use of capital. Ideal For Upgrading an installed Cisco SE LC platform from 1G to 10G ports Expanding bandwidth for service growth without hardware replacement Supporting network modernization projects with a license-based path Preserving capital investment while increasing port performance Why This Product 1 Upgrades 48 ports from 1G to 10G 2 Avoids a full hardware replacement cycle 3 Keeps the installed SE LC platform in service 4 Better capital efficiency than a rip-and-replace approach
