The Cisco WS-C4503-E is a Catalyst 4500 E-series 3-slot switch chassis, supplied with its fan tray but without a power supply. The E-series chassis is the enhanced-generation member of the modular Catalyst 4500 line, built to support the higher-bandwidth Supervisor 6-E and 7-E engines and the corresponding E-series line cards, which are not interchangeable with the earlier non-E chassis.
The 3-slot 4503-E remains a common campus core and distribution chassis, chosen where rack space is limited but E-series supervisor performance is still required. Because it ships bare of a power supply, buyers typically pair it with a WS-C4500-X or 4500E-series AC/DC unit sized to the intended supervisor and line card load. Confirm slot count and supervisor compatibility before ordering.
