Fanless Access Connectivity for Powered Branch Endpoints

C1000-8P-E-2G-L is a fanless, managed Layer 2 desktop switch with eight 10/100/1000 PoE+ access ports and two fixed 1G combo uplinks. The Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series serves small businesses and branch offices, including IP phones, wireless access points, and other standards-compliant powered endpoints. Each uplink uses either its SFP connection or its RJ-45 connection, so copper and fiber share an interface rather than providing additional concurrent ports. External AC power distinguishes this configuration from an internally powered chassis. The discontinued C1000-8FP-E-2G-L increases the endpoint power allocation to 120W. The compact Gigabit PoE+ configuration provides fixed access connectivity without an uplink expansion card.

C1000-8P-E-2G-L price for new stock is $727.65, a 4% saving from the Cisco list price of $758.00. C1000-8P-E-2G-L refurb price is $559.82. C1000-8P-E-2G-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

20 Gbps switching capacity carries aggregate Ethernet traffic across the fixed interfaces. 14.88 Mpps forwarding supports 64-byte packet processing. 67W of shared PoE power constrains the combined endpoint allocation; 30W per-port capability does not mean every powered port can draw its maximum simultaneously. C1000-8P-E-2G-L pairs 512 MB DRAM with 256 MB flash for operation and software storage. A 16000-entry MAC table and 256 active VLANs set the address-learning and segmentation limits. STP/RSTP/MSTP and LACP provide Layer 2 topology and link-aggregation controls. For traffic investigation, sFlow sampling and SPAN offer monitoring paths, while the Cisco IOS CLI and web UI support configuration. Perpetual PoE maintains powered-device output during a software reload. The external-power configuration does not provide a redundant internal power-supply pair.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies C1000-8P-E-2G-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty; 30-day returns cover every condition, terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with PoE output verified under load on every powered port, firmware verified, and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify condition and accessories on the PO; Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime warranty is limited to the original end user and five years after discontinuance announcement, while Cisco service ends April 30, 2030. Enterprise and volume POs are accepted, with Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement, and regional stock and RMA in the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Universal software image selection

C1000-8P-E-2G-L does not require choosing between software images when specifying hardware; a single universal Cisco IOS image supplies the Catalyst 1000 Series' advanced Layer 2 functionality.

Cisco service attachment deadline

C1000-8P-E-2G-L cannot be newly attached to Cisco service after April 30, 2026; existing coverage must be renewed by July 29, 2029 when planning continued support.

Single IP management connections

C1000-8P-E-2G-L uses its uplinks for Single IP Management groups of eight Gigabit Ethernet switches; reserve those connections in the port plan rather than expecting dedicated stacking connectors.

Branch Rack Installation

Where a branch installation requires the compact switch to sit in an equipment rack, mounting hardware needs its own order line. The desktop package does not include rack brackets. Specify RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= rack brackets and confirm the mounting location before releasing the purchase order.

Cold Storage Staging

Where staging stock arrives from cold storage, the first power-on needs a warmer ambient than the lowest running-temperature limit. Cold starts require at least 0°C. Build that requirement into the acceptance procedure, then check receiving-area temperatures and specify the staging conditions before releasing the purchase order.

Regional Power Standardization

When branch orders span different regional power connections, each destination needs the country-specific AC cable selection attached to its hardware order. Power-cable selection is mandatory for the Catalyst 1000 order configuration. Map destinations to the required cable variant, then specify that selection against each switch line before issuing the PO.

Not Suitable If

10G uplinks to distribution

C1000-8P-E-2G-L has only 1G combo uplinks. C1300-24P-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks as a current replacement option, but changes the access-port count to 24.

Maximum PoE power on every port

The 67W shared budget cannot deliver 30W on all powered ports simultaneously. Combined endpoint allocations must remain within the chassis budget rather than individual port limits.

Redundant internal power supplies

External AC power supplies C1000-8P-E-2G-L through its adapter, rather than two redundant internal supply modules; a second internal PSU cannot be specified for this configuration.

Continuing routine Cisco software maintenance

Routine Cisco software maintenance ended April 30, 2026. C1300-8P-E-2G is the current successor to evaluate for migration rather than extending a discontinued hardware standard.

Questions & Answers

What does the C1000-8P-E-2G-L part number mean?

C1000-8P-E-2G-L identifies a Catalyst 1000 switch: C1000 is the series, 8 is the access-port count, P denotes PoE+, E denotes external power, and 2G identifies two Gigabit uplinks. Those uplinks are SFP/RJ-45 combo pairs. The complete model runs a single universal Cisco IOS image with advanced Layer 2 functionality.

How is a Catalyst 1000 switch managed?

Catalyst 1000 switches support the Cisco Configuration Professional web UI, CLI access over SSH or Telnet, an RJ-45 console, and SNMP. An external USB Bluetooth dongle enables local wireless access to the CLI or browser interface. Single IP Management can also group Gigabit Ethernet models under one management address.

Is the Catalyst 1000 Series discontinued?

Yes, the Catalyst 1000 Series reached end of sale on April 30, 2025. Routine software maintenance ended April 30, 2026, while vulnerability and security support ends April 30, 2028. The last date of Cisco support is April 30, 2030, subject to applicable service-contract or warranty eligibility.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for C1000-8P-E-2G-L?

ORM Systems offers C1000-8P-E-2G-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Both conditions have 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime warranty has original-owner eligibility and a five-year discontinuance limit; Cisco service ends April 30, 2030. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested.

Which software image does the Catalyst 1000 Series use?

The Catalyst 1000 Series uses one universal Cisco IOS image with advanced Layer 2 functionality. Hardware selection therefore turns on access-port power, external or internal power supply, and fixed uplink configuration. Specify the complete hardware part number rather than using a software-image name as the ordering identifier.

How much PoE power does C1000-8P-E-2G-L provide?

67W is the shared PoE budget for C1000-8P-E-2G-L, with 30W available per PoE+ port within that total. IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at endpoints are supported. Size the combined allocation rather than assuming every powered port can draw its individual maximum at the same time.

What uplinks are installed on C1000-8P-E-2G-L?

Two fixed 1G SFP/RJ-45 combo uplinks are installed on C1000-8P-E-2G-L. Each pair allows a copper or fiber connection, but both connectors of one pair do not operate as independent uplinks. The configuration has no removable uplink-card bay, and its uplink speed class does not extend to 10G.

How many Catalyst 1000 switches can share one management IP address?

Eight Gigabit Ethernet Catalyst 1000 switches can participate in Single IP Management. Their uplink ports provide the interconnections, and administrators manage the group through one IP address. This is management grouping rather than dedicated hardware stacking, so the uplink connection requirements remain part of the network port plan.

What performance does C1000-8P-E-2G-L provide?

20 Gbps switching capacity and 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate define C1000-8P-E-2G-L throughput. The switch has 512 MB DRAM, 256 MB flash, a 16000-entry MAC table, and 256 active VLANs. STP/RSTP/MSTP and LACP provide Layer 2 controls, while sFlow and SPAN support traffic observation and troubleshooting.

What is the difference between C1000-8P-E-2G-L and C1000-8FP-E-2G-L?

C1000-8FP-E-2G-L provides a 120W PoE budget where C1000-8P-E-2G-L provides 67W. Both retain the externally powered configuration and are discontinued. The 120W variant accommodates higher combined endpoint allocations within legacy Catalyst 1000 installations; the 67W variant matches lower-demand powered-device configurations and like-for-like sparing requirements.

What is the difference between C1000-8P-E-2G-L and C1000-8P-2G-L?

C1000-8P-E-2G-L uses external power, while C1000-8P-2G-L uses an internal supply. Both models are discontinued and retain a 67W PoE budget. The external-power version suits installations retaining a separate adapter arrangement; the internal-power version matches legacy installations that require the AC supply within the switch chassis.

What is the difference between C1000-8P-E-2G-L and C1300-8P-E-2G?

C1000-8P-E-2G-L reached end of sale on April 30, 2025, while C1300-8P-E-2G is its current replacement. Both configurations use eight Gigabit PoE access ports, external power, and two 1G combo uplinks. The older model addresses legacy sparing; the successor addresses migration and new purchasing standards.

Which mounting accessories support compact Catalyst 1000 switches?

RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= provides rack brackets for compact Catalyst 1000 eight-port and sixteen-port switches, while CMPCT-DIN-MNT supports DIN rail installation. The eight-port package does not include rack brackets. Specify the appropriate mounting accessory separately and match the installation method to the equipment location before completing the hardware order.

What power figures apply to C1000-8P-E-2G-L?

0.087 kVA is the maximum input rating for C1000-8P-E-2G-L, while the 100% traffic consumption measurement is 15.71W. These are distinct quantities from the 67W endpoint PoE budget. Use the maximum input rating for facility capacity planning and size powered-device allocations separately within the available PoE budget.
