Cisco C9300L-DNX-E-48-7Y 48-Port 7-Year License | Enterprise Network — C9300L-DNX-E-48-7Y

Keep your Catalyst 9300L access layer under a single, long-term software commitment with this 48-port Cisco DNA Essentials subscription. The 7-year term is designed for organizations that want to lock in operational coverage across a planned refresh cycle, reduce annual procurement churn, and maintain consistent software entitlement for the switch footprint. Cisco DNA Essentials is positioned for teams standardizing campus access operations and looking for a licensing tier that supports day-to-day network management without overbuying features they will not use. For procurement and infrastructure leaders, the value is in predictability: one term, one entitlement window, and a cleaner path for budgeting across multi-year deployments. This subscription is tied to the 48-port Catalyst 9300L platform and is best suited to environments where access switching is a core dependency for users, devices, and branch or campus connectivity. It helps align software coverage with the hardware lifecycle, which is often where lower-cost alternatives fall short.
