The 2.48.1 is the official source release and the latest. Depending on the platform and distribution, some may lag behind releasing the latest and that is perfectly expected.

Looking at the output from
  https://lore.kernel.org/git/?q=s:Announce+f:Schindelin

I suspect that Windows binary based on 2.48.1 has not been released yet, even though one based on 2.47.1 has.
