16-Port Gigabit Switch with SFP Uplinks

The Cisco Catalyst C1200-16T-2G is a managed Ethernet switch built for small business networks. It provides sixteen RJ45 ports running at 10/100/1000Base-T speeds. Two additional SFP slots accept 1000Base-X modules for fibre uplinks. The unit operates silently with a fanless design and consumes a maximum of 18.37 W.

Suits Managed Layer 3 Needs; Not for PoE Devices

This switch fits administrators who require Layer 3 routing features and a web or CLI management interface. It supports VLANs, QoS and static routing for traffic segmentation. Buyers needing Power over Ethernet for phones or cameras must select a different model. Networks requiring higher port density or 10G uplinks should also consider other options.

Layer 3 Routing Decides Fit

The defining specification is Layer 3 support, which enables inter-VLAN routing without a separate router. If your design only needs basic switching, an unmanaged or Layer 2 device will cost less. Confirm that your fibre modules match the 1000Base-X standard for the SFP ports. The 100-240VAC input works worldwide without configuration.

Questions about this item

How much heat and noise will the 18.37 W fanless C1200-16T-2G produce running 24/7?

The switch draws a maximum of 18.37 W and uses a fanless design, so it runs silently with only modest heat output suitable for a desk or rack shelf.

What cabling and SFP modules do I need to use the 16 RJ45 and 2 SFP ports on this switch?

Connect devices with Cat5e or better copper cables to the 16 RJ45 ports and insert compatible 1000Base-X SFP transceivers with fibre patch leads for the two SFP uplinks.

Will the Layer 3 C1200-16T-2G interoperate with my older 10/100 switches and routers?

Yes, the RJ45 ports auto-negotiate 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps and the Layer 3 routing features work with legacy equipment using standard Ethernet and IP protocols.
