Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L | 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch | 120W Budget | 2x Combo SFP/RJ-45 - Cisco Refresh

The Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L is an enterprise-class 8-port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ managed switch built for small businesses, branch offices, retail, and IoT deployments. It provides a shared 120W PoE+ budget across 8x 10/100/1000 RJ-45 PoE+ ports (802.3af/at) and 2x 1G combo SFP/RJ-45 uplinks, with 20 Gbps switching bandwidth (full-duplex), 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate, and fanless silent operation. Runs Cisco IOS on the Layer 2 LAN Lite feature set with VLANs (802.1Q), QoS, 802.1X security, STP/RSTP/MSTP, and IGMP snooping — managed via CLI, on-box Web UI, or SNMP. This is the US/North America regional SKU with a US-style NEMA 5-15 power cord and standard global IOS image.

Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L - Key Features & Benefits

• 8x Gigabit PoE+ Ports with 120W Shared Budget: Supports IEEE 802.3af (up to 15.4W/port) and 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30W/port), with a total 120W budget shared across all 8 ports. Plenty for a mix of IP phones, Wi-Fi access points, IP cameras, and IoT endpoints; not all 8 ports can draw a full 30W simultaneously (8 × 30W = 240W exceeds the budget).
• 2x 1G Combo SFP/RJ-45 Uplinks: Two flexible uplink slots — each accepts either a 1G SFP module (sold separately) or a standard RJ-45 copper cable. Note: each combo port uses one media at a time — you cannot use the SFP and RJ-45 sides of the same port concurrently.
• Layer 2 Managed — LAN Lite Feature Set: Full enterprise Layer 2 services — VLAN (802.1Q), QoS (802.1p/DSCP), STP/RSTP/MSTP, IGMP snooping, port security, 802.1X, and ACLs. Note: This is a Layer 2 access switch — it does not provide dynamic routing (OSPF, EIGRP, BGP). Managed through Cisco IOS CLI, on-box Web UI, or SNMP.
• Fanless Silent Operation — Fits Anywhere: 0 dB fanless design with 1RU rack-mountable form factor runs silent in open-office, retail, classroom, and reception-area deployments where noise matters.
• 20 Gbps Switching + Energy-Efficient Ethernet: 20 Gbps switching bandwidth (full-duplex), 10 Gbps forwarding bandwidth, 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate (64-byte L3 packets), and IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet for low idle-power draw.

Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What is the difference between C1000-8FP-2G-L and C1000-8FP-E-2G-L?
  The C1000-8FP-2G-L uses an internal AC power supply (standard 110–220V AC cord) and has deeper dimensions (10.56 x 12.73 x 1.73 in). The -E variant is externally powered via a power brick and is physically smaller. Port count, PoE budget (120W), combo uplinks, and IOS feature set are otherwise identical.
• Can I use both the SFP and RJ-45 side of a combo uplink port at the same time?
  No. Each of the two combo uplinks accepts either a 1G SFP module (sold separately) or a standard RJ-45 copper cable — but only one media per port at a time. You get two uplinks total, not four.
• How does the 120W PoE budget work with 8 ports?
  The 120W is a shared budget across all 8 PoE+ ports. Each port can deliver up to 30W (802.3at) or 15.4W (802.3af) individually, but the switch allocates power dynamically and the combined draw cannot exceed 120W. Typical real-world mix: 8x IP phones (~6W each) plus a couple of APs, or 4x mid-power APs, etc.
• Is this a US regional SKU, and what power cord ships with it?
  Yes — this is the US/North America SKU and ships with a standard NEMA 5-15 (US) power cord. The switch itself is auto-ranging 110–220V AC, 50/60Hz, so international buyers can use it with their own local power cord. The IOS software image is the standard global LAN Lite image.
