C9300-48S-E provides 48 SFP-based 1 Gigabit Ethernet access ports and a modular uplink slot. It is a fiber access switch, not a 48-port copper or PoE model. The E suffix identifies Network Essentials.
Compatible uplink modules are selected separately for the required 1G, 10G or supported higher-speed design. Cisco documents StackWise-480 and StackPower support on this hardware. Stack cables, power-stack cables, uplink module and optics must be listed in the BOM.
Cisco lists two power-supply slots and a 715 W AC supply installed by default for the 48S hardware profile. A second supply provides redundancy when ordered. The spare PID ending in equals is explicitly documented without a power supply, so procurement must distinguish base, spare and remanufactured forms.
