Cisco Catalyst C1300-8P-E-2G - Description

Managed PoE Switch 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet + 2 Port SFP Combo

Compact Managed PoE Switch for Modern Business Networks:

The Cisco Catalyst C1300-8P-E-2G Managed PoE Switch is a powerful yet compact networking solution designed for small to medium-sized businesses, branch offices, retail environments, classrooms, and open workspaces. With its sleek, fanless design and flexible mounting options, this switch can be deployed outside traditional wiring closets without disrupting the environment. It delivers enterprise-grade reliability, security, and performance in a space-saving form factor.

High-Performance Gigabit Connectivity:

Equipped with 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, including 8 PoE+ Gigabit RJ-45 ports and 2 Gigabit copper/SFP combo ports, the switch provides flexible connectivity for IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other network devices. A switching capacity of 20 Gbps and forwarding rate of 14.88 mpps ensure smooth data flow, low latency, and consistent performance for bandwidth-intensive applications.

Efficient Power over Ethernet (PoE+) Capabilities:

The switch supports PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) across all 8 access ports, delivering up to 30W per port with a total PoE power budget of 67W. Features such as time-based PoE scheduling and persistent PoE help optimize energy usage while ensuring connected devices remain powered during switch reboots. These capabilities make it ideal for powering critical devices while reducing operational costs.

Energy-Efficient and Silent Operation:

Designed for energy efficiency, the Cisco Catalyst C1300-8P-E-2G consumes as little as 7.46W when idle and operates silently thanks to its fanless architecture. Heat dissipation is minimized, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments. The ability to disable port LEDs and schedule port activity further enhances power savings.

Enterprise-Grade Hardware and Reliability:

Powered by an ARM dual-core 1.5 GHz CPU, 1 GB DDR4 RAM, and 1 GB SLC flash, the switch ensures stable and responsive operation. With an impressive MTBF of over 2.8 million hours, it delivers long-term reliability. Cisco-standard RJ-45 and USB-C console ports simplify management, while robust certifications ensure compliance with global standards.
