Cisco Catalyst 16-Port Managed Layer 3 Gigabit PoE+ Switch with 2x 1G SFP Uplinks (C1300-16P-2G)

The Cisco Catalyst C1300-16P-2G is a managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized businesses and branch offices. Its fanless, rack-mountable design provides silent operation while supporting high-performance data connectivity and Power over Ethernet (PoE+) for devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. This switch combines enterprise-grade routing, robust security, and flexible management options, including Web UI, CLI, SNMP, and Cisco Business Dashboard or mobile app control, delivering reliable and scalable network performance for modern office environments.

Product Features

Layer 3 Routing Capabilities

Supports advanced Layer 3 routing with up to 990 static IPv4 routes and 128 IPv4 interfaces, enabling efficient traffic management across multiple subnets.

VLAN and QoS Support

Handles up to 4,093 VLAN IDs with 255 active VLANs simultaneously. Quality of Service (QoS) ensures optimized performance with 8 hardware queues per port and support for Weighted Round Robin (WRR) and Strict Priority.

Enhanced Security

Features 802.1X authentication, Access Control Lists (ACLs), DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI), and IPv6 First Hop Security to prevent unauthorized access and network attacks.

Fanless and Energy-Efficient Design

Fanless architecture allows silent operation, ideal for offices or classrooms. Energy-efficient design complies with IEEE 802.3az, reducing power consumption during periods of low network activity.

Flexible Management

Accessible through the Cisco Business Dashboard, mobile app, local Web UI, or standard CLI for seamless configuration, monitoring, and network management.

PoE+ Power

Provides a total PoE+ power budget of 120W, delivering up to 30W per port to connected devices such as IP phones, cameras, and access points.
