Cisco C4500E DNA Advantage 5-Year Term License | Enterprise, Network — C4500E-DNA-A-5Y

Plan Catalyst 4500E software access over a five-year horizon with the C4500E DNA Advantage term license. This licensing model is built for teams that want to align network capability with budget cycles and avoid short-term renewals that complicate procurement and operations. A longer term makes sense when the switching platform is already established in the environment and the goal is to keep software entitlement stable across the lifecycle. DNA Advantage is typically chosen when the network requires a higher tier of Cisco software capability and a cleaner path for ongoing management than entry-level licensing can provide. For enterprise infrastructure teams, the benefit is predictability. You can standardize the entitlement period, reduce renewal churn, and keep the platform aligned with planned refresh windows. That makes this license a practical choice for organizations that value operational continuity and want to protect the investment already made in Catalyst 4500E switching.
