Cisco C9500-DNX-A-48Y-7Y 48-Port 25G Fiber Subscription | Enterprise — C9500-DNX-A-48Y-7Y

Keep Catalyst 9500 software coverage aligned with the lifecycle of your switching platform using the C9500 Advanced Software Subscription, 48P 25G Fiber, 7-Year License. This term-based model is designed for organizations that want to lock in long-duration licensing for a high-performance access or aggregation layer without revisiting procurement every year. The 48-port 25G fiber designation points to a deployment profile built for dense, high-throughput environments where fiber connectivity and predictable software entitlement matter. For infrastructure teams, that means fewer licensing interruptions, cleaner budget forecasting, and a better match between software coverage and the hardware already in service. This subscription is well suited to enterprise networks standardizing on Cisco Catalyst 9500 switching and planning around multi-year refresh windows. It supports a more deliberate operating model: one that values continuity, procurement simplicity, and software coverage that stays in step with the network architecture.
