Cisco Systems, Inc. C1300-8T-E-2G network switch 8-port managed rack-mountable Gigabit Ethernet 2 SFP combo

Managed Gigabit switch with SFP uplinks

This Cisco Catalyst C1300-8T-E-2G is a Layer 3 managed switch providing eight 10/100/1000Base-T ports and two combo Gigabit SFP/RJ-45 uplinks. It delivers a 20 Gbps switching capacity and a 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate for 64-byte packets. The unit mounts in a standard rack and consumes 10.65 W of power.

Small networks needing Layer 3 routing

The switch suits environments that require static IP routing, RIP-2, and up to 4093 VLANs with 126 RPVST+ instances. It also supports 1024 ACL rules and 9000-byte jumbo frames for larger MTU requirements. Buyers who need PoE power for phones or cameras, or who require more than eight copper ports, should consider other models.

20 Gbps switching capacity

This performance specification determines whether the switch can handle the aggregate throughput and packet rate of your connected devices. The 1.5 MB packet buffer and 16000-entry MAC table support bursty traffic and large address tables. Verify that these figures meet your network's peak load before purchasing.
