Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds across all ports, supporting 10/100/1000Base-T for copper connections and 1000Base-X for fiber via the SFP slots. The 24 PoE+ ports comply with IEEE 802.3at, delivering up to 30 watts per port to powered devices, while the 370-watt total PoE budget allows simultaneous powering of multiple high-demand endpoints. Layer 3 support includes static routing and dynamic protocols, enabling inter-VLAN routing and improved network traffic management without a separate router.
The switching fabric handles wire-speed performance across all ports, with non-blocking architecture ensuring minimal latency. Four SFP slots provide modular uplink flexibility, supporting both fiber and copper SFP transceivers for distances up to kilometers. Advanced management features include SNMP, CLI, and web-based interfaces for configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. The switch supports a broad range of networking standards, including IEEE 802.1Q for VLANs, 802.1x for port-based authentication, 802.3ad for link aggregation, and 802.3az for energy-efficient Ethernet.
Key Product Advantages
The C1300-24FP-4G-RF combines high-density PoE+ with enterprise switching features in a compact 1U footprint, reducing rack space while powering modern networked devices.
