Cisco Catalyst C1300-24P-4G 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Network Switch (C1300-24P-4G)

The Cisco Catalyst C1300-24P-4G is a fully managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized businesses and branch office environments that demand high performance, advanced security, and scalable network infrastructure. Equipped with 24 PoE+ ports, four Gigabit SFP uplinks, and a total PoE power budget of 195 W, this switch supports modern connected devices while delivering silent, energy-efficient operation in a rack-mountable form factor.

Product Features

24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Ports

The switch includes twenty-four 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 ports with PoE+ support, enabling both power and data delivery over a single Ethernet cable. This simplifies deployment of IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras.

High PoE Power Budget

With a total PoE budget of 195 W and support for up to 30 W per port, the C1300-24P-4G can reliably power multiple PoE-enabled devices across the network.

Four Gigabit SFP Uplink Ports

Four dedicated 1 Gigabit SFP uplink slots provide flexible fiber connectivity, ensuring high-speed links to aggregation switches or core network infrastructure.

Layer 3 Routing and Network Segmentation

The switch supports Layer 3 static routing, VLANs, and policy-based routing, enabling efficient inter-VLAN communication and improved traffic control for segmented business networks.

Scalable Stacking Capability

Front-panel stacking allows up to eight Catalyst 1300 series switches to operate as a single logical unit under one IP address, simplifying management while increasing port density and scalability.

Advanced Network Security

Enterprise-grade security features include IEEE 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, dynamic ARP inspection, IP Source Guard, and IPv6 First Hop Security to safeguard the network against unauthorized access and internal threats.

Flexible and Centralized Management

The C1300-24P-4G can be managed through a web-based interface, command-line interface, SNMP, Cisco Business Dashboard, and Cisco Business mobile app, accommodating both basic and advanced administrative needs.

Fanless and Energy-Efficient Design

A fanless cooling architecture ensures silent operation, making the switch suitable for offices, classrooms, and retail environments. Compliance with IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet helps reduce overall power consumption.
