Product Features
Technical Overview
This Layer 2 managed switch operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds across all ports, supporting both 10/100/1000Base-T copper and 1000Base-X fiber connections through its SFP slots. The switch implements a comprehensive set of networking standards including IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at for PoE/PoE+, 802.1Q for VLAN segmentation, 802.1x for network access control, and 802.3ad for link aggregation.
With a power consumption of just 9.10W under typical operation, the switch maintains energy efficiency while delivering full PoE capabilities. The rack-mountable 1U form factor fits standard 19-inch racks, and the compact dimensions make it suitable for space-constrained installations.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Network (RJ-45), Uplink Port, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
Key Product Advantages
The CBS220-8FP-E-2G combines essential managed switching features with robust PoE capabilities in a compact form factor. The 130W PoE budget provides ample power for multiple connected devices, while the two SFP uplink slots offer future-proof connectivity options for network expansion.

As a fully manageable Layer 2 switch, it provides advanced features including VLANs, QoS, port mirroring, IGMP snooping, and spanning tree protocols for network optimization and security.
- VLAN segmentation
- Quality of Service (QoS)
- Port security features
Flexible Uplink Options
The two SFP slots support both copper and fiber transceivers, allowing for long-distance connections or compatibility with existing fiber infrastructure.
- 1000Base-X compatibility
- Hot-swappable SFP modules
- Mixed media support
Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is particularly well-suited for small business environments where space, power, and budget constraints exist alongside growing network demands. Its combination of PoE capabilities, managed features, and compact design makes it versatile for various deployment scenarios.
Common applications include powering and connecting VoIP phone systems in office environments, supporting multiple wireless access points for comprehensive Wi-Fi coverage, and connecting IP surveillance cameras in security installations. The SFP uplinks enable connections to core switches or routers over longer distances where copper limitations would otherwise require additional equipment.
Small Office Networking
Ideal for offices with 8 or fewer wired devices needing both data and power, such as IP phones, computers, and access points, with room for expansion via uplinks.
Retail & Hospitality
Perfect for point-of-sale systems, digital signage, guest Wi-Fi access points, and security cameras in space-constrained retail or hospitality environments.
Physical Profile
The switch features a compact, rack-mountable design measuring 1.73 inches in height (1U), 10.98 inches in width, and 6.69 inches in depth. This form factor fits standard 19-inch equipment racks while occupying minimal vertical space. The included mounting kit facilitates easy installation in rack, wall, or desktop configurations depending on deployment needs.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (44 mm), 10.98" (279 mm), 6.69" (170 mm), 2.60 lb (1180 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
