Catalyst 1300 48-port Layer 3 switch

The Cisco Catalyst 1300-48MGP-4X is a rackmount managed switch with 48 primary ports and four SFP+ uplinks. It runs full Layer 3 routing and supports up to 4093 VLANs simultaneously. The unit provides a 740 W PoE+ power budget across its RJ45 ports and operates with a maximum consumption of 93.60 W.

Small-business networks needing PoE+

This switch suits organisations that want Layer 3 features, VLAN flexibility and high-density PoE+ without licence fees. It is managed through a mobile app, local web UI or Cisco Business Dashboard. Buyers who need more than four 10 GbE uplinks or a higher PoE budget should look at larger models.

740 W PoE+ budget across 48 RJ45 ports

The single specification that decides fit is the 740 W PoE+ budget shared by 32 Gigabit ports and 16 multi-gigabit 2.5 GbE ports. If connected phones, cameras and access points draw more than this total, devices will not power up. Verify the aggregate load before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1 GbE or 2.5 GbE ports for my access points?

The switch provides 32 ports at 10/100/1000 Mbps and 16 ports at 2.5 Gbps; use the 2.5 Gbps ports for devices that can exceed 1 Gbps throughput.

What does the 740 W PoE budget deliver across the 48 RJ45 ports?

It powers all 48 copper ports simultaneously — up to 30 W per port on the 16 multi-gigabit ports and up to 30 W on the 32 gigabit ports — staying within the 740 W total budget.

How far can the four SFP+ uplinks reach at 10 Gbps?

The SFP+ cages accept standard 10G SFP+ modules; reach depends on the module you install — typically 300 m on multimode fibre or up to 10 km on single-mode fibre.
