Catalyst 1000 8-Port Managed Switch

The Cisco Catalyst 1000-8FP-2G-L is a rack-mountable managed switch with eight 10/100/1000 ports and two combo Gigabit SFP uplinks. It delivers PoE+ power up to 120 W across the copper ports. The unit measures 10.6 in x 12.7 in x 1.7 in and weighs 5.95 lbs.

Who This Suits and Who It Does Not

Network managers needing a compact managed switch for PoE+ devices such as access points or IP phones will fit this 1U form factor. Buyers who need more than eight powered ports or require 10 GbE uplinks should look elsewhere. Builds that demand a fanless design or Layer 3 routing features are not addressed by this model.

The Deciding Specification

The 120 W PoE+ budget across eight copper ports is the single figure that determines whether this switch powers your endpoint count. If the total draw of connected devices stays within that limit, the switch meets the requirement; if it exceeds it, another power source is needed.
