Cisco Catalyst C1300-16P-2G 16-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Network Switch (C1300-16P-2G)

The Cisco Catalyst C1300-16P-2G is a managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized business networks that require reliable performance, advanced security, and efficient power delivery. With 16 PoE+ ports, a total power budget of 120W, and two Gigabit SFP uplinks, this switch supports modern network devices such as access points, IP phones, and security cameras while maintaining silent operation through a fanless, energy-efficient design.

Product Features

16 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Ports

The switch provides sixteen 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports with PoE+ support, allowing both power and data transmission over a single cable. This simplifies deployment and reduces infrastructure costs for powered network devices.

High PoE Power Budget

With a total PoE budget of 120W and up to 30W per port, the C1300-16P-2G can reliably power multiple PoE-enabled devices, making it suitable for growing business environments.

Layer 3 Managed Switching

The switch supports Layer 3 static routing and inter-VLAN routing, enabling efficient network segmentation and optimized traffic flow between VLANs for improved performance and scalability.

Dual Gigabit SFP Uplinks

Two dedicated 1 Gigabit SFP uplink ports provide flexible fiber connectivity options, ensuring high-speed uplinks to core switches or network backbones.

Fanless and Energy-Efficient Design

A fanless cooling architecture ensures silent operation, making the switch ideal for offices, retail spaces, and other noise-sensitive environments. Support for IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet further reduces power consumption.

Advanced Network Security

Enterprise-grade security features include IEEE 802.1X authentication, port security, dynamic ARP inspection, DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard, and IPv6 First Hop Security to protect the network from unauthorized access and attacks.

Flexible Management Options

The switch can be managed using an intuitive web-based interface, Cisco Business Dashboard, command-line interface, and SNMP, offering both ease of use and advanced configuration capabilities for IT administrators.

High Reliability and Availability

Support for dual firmware images minimizes downtime during software upgrades, while link aggregation enhances bandwidth and network resiliency.
