Cisco C9300-48-E-A-5 48-Port NW & DNA Upgrade License | Enterprise — C9300-48-E-A-5

Move a 48-port Catalyst 9300 deployment from Network Essentials to Network Advantage with a 5-year upgrade license built for lifecycle planning. This license is intended for organizations that want to keep the hardware in place while expanding access to the broader capabilities associated with the Advantage tier. For infrastructure teams, the value is in control and continuity. Instead of replacing a stable access switch platform, you can align licensing with evolving network requirements and extend the useful life of the installed base. That matters when the switch is already embedded in campus access, edge aggregation, or standardized branch designs. The 5-year term supports budget predictability and reduces the churn of short renewal cycles. It also fits environments where procurement, compliance, and network operations need a clear path forward without introducing a new hardware refresh. For Cisco-centric estates, this is the cleaner way to move up the licensing stack while keeping the deployment model consistent.
