C1000-8T-2G-L is a fanless, managed Layer 2 desktop switch with eight 10/100/1000 RJ-45 access ports and two fixed Gigabit Ethernet combo uplinks. Each uplink offers an RJ-45 connection or an SFP cage, with the two media sharing one interface rather than operating as separate links. The Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series serves small-business and branch-office access networks outside the main wiring closet. This model does not supply PoE, so phones, access points, and other powered devices need independent power arrangements. The discontinued C1000-8P-2G-L adds PoE+ with a shared 67W budget; the data-only model serves installations that do not require endpoint power from the switch. Copper and fiber uplink choices let the connection medium follow the installed distribution cabling without changing the access-port configuration.
C1000-8T-2G-L price for new stock is $517.65, a 37.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $826.00. C1000-8T-2G-L refurb price is $231.00. C1000-8T-2G-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

20 Gbps switching capacity provides bandwidth for the fixed interfaces, while 14.88 Mpps forwarding handles 64-byte packets. A 16000-entry MAC address table supports learned endpoint addresses across configured VLANs. C1000-8T-2G-L carries 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for software operation and image storage. RSTP and MSTP govern spanning-tree behavior, and BPDU Guard disables PortFast-enabled interfaces that receive bridge protocol data units. SSH v2 supports authenticated remote administration, while the on-box web UI provides configuration and monitoring through Cisco Configuration Professional. DHCP snooping and IP Source Guard restrict traffic using binding information, and IGMP snooping limits multicast delivery to requesting receivers. The Gigabit Ethernet switch supports 256 active VLANs for segmentation and 10240-byte jumbo Ethernet frames for connections with matching frame-size settings. 14.26W consumption at 100% traffic informs local AC load planning; that operating figure is distinct from the supply's maximum apparent-power rating.
Specify C1000-8T-2G-L as new sealed or certified refurbished, and state the quantity and condition on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, optics bay recognition, and a clean boot; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply. For enterprise and volume orders, ORM Systems accepts POs, provides Net-30 for government, and offers RMA with advance replacement across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

A branch rollout placing compact switches in a shared equipment rack needs mounting hardware on the same purchase order as the switch. RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= provides the rack bracket option for compact models; specify that accessory and confirm the intended mounting arrangement before releasing the hardware order.
A staging bench preparing repeatable configurations needs a local management connection before production addressing is assigned. CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 provides the RJ-45 console cable option for these switches. Include CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 in the staging purchase order and confirm the workstation-side connection before scheduling configuration and acceptance work.
An installed base of discontinued WS-C2960L-8TS-LL switches creates a hardware-refresh or replacement-sparing requirement. C1000-8T-2G-L replaces that model but is also discontinued, so the migration relationship alone does not establish a current-product choice. Check configuration compatibility and the required support horizon before specifying an order for the existing estate.
Power delivery to attached endpoints
C1000-8T-2G-L supplies data only and cannot power attached devices. C1300-8P-E-2G is the current eight-port powered replacement option, but uses an external supply.
10G uplinks to distribution
C1000-8T-2G-L has only 1G combo uplinks. C1300-24T-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but increases access-port density to 24 rather than eight.
Independent redundant internal power supplies
The single fixed internal supply cannot provide internal dual-supply redundancy. Specify a different power architecture when independent internal supplies are mandatory for the installation.

C1000-8T-2G-L identifies a Catalyst 1000 switch with eight 10/100/1000 Ethernet access ports and two 1G SFP/RJ-45 combo uplinks. C1000 identifies the family, 8T identifies the eight copper data ports, and 2G identifies the two Gigabit combo uplinks. The full PID specifies the non-PoE model.
C1000-8T-2G-L supports Cisco Configuration Professional web UI management, CLI access through SSH or Telnet, RJ-45 console access, and SNMP. An external USB Bluetooth dongle enables browser or CLI access over Bluetooth. Gigabit Ethernet models also support Single IP Management for a connected group of switches.
C1000-8T-2G-L has two fixed 1G combo uplinks, each offering an SFP cage and an RJ-45 connection sharing the same interface. Select copper or fiber for each uplink; the paired connections do not create four independent uplinks. The eight copper access ports remain separate from these uplinks.
No, C1000-8T-2G-L does not provide PoE or PoE+ power to connected endpoints. The eight access ports carry Ethernet data, and the internal AC supply powers the switch itself. Phones, access points, and other devices requiring power must have an independent power arrangement specified for the installation.
Yes, Catalyst 1000 Gigabit Ethernet switches support Single IP Management for eight connected switches using their uplink ports. This groups configuration and troubleshooting under one management address. Plan the uplink connections as part of the topology, because the grouping uses network uplinks rather than adding access interfaces.
No, C1000-8T-2G-L is a compact desktop switch measuring 268.22 mm wide, not a full-width rack chassis. RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= provides an optional rack bracket, while CMPCT-DIN-MNT provides the DIN rail mounting option. Specify the appropriate accessory when the installation requires mounting rather than desktop placement.
C1000-8T-2G-L consumes 14.26W at 100% traffic and 14.04W at 0% traffic. The fixed internal supply accepts 110-220V AC. These operating-consumption figures are separate from the 0.04 kVA maximum apparent-power rating, so the measured wattage should not be presented as that rating.
Catalyst 1000 switches use a single universal Cisco IOS Software image with advanced Layer 2 functionality. The family supports CLI and on-box web administration through that image. Specify the required hardware configuration and management features rather than treating the switch as a choice between separate software-image tiers.
C1000-8T-2G-L replaces the discontinued WS-C2960L-8TS-JP, WS-C2960L-8TS-LL, and WS-C2960L-8TSLL++ models, which reached end of sale on October 31, 2021. C1000-8T-2G-L has also reached end of sale. C1300-8T-E-2G is its current replacement, so distinguish legacy sparing from a purchase requiring a current model.
Yes, C1000-8T-2G-L reached end of sale on April 30, 2025. Software maintenance and new service attachment ended April 30, 2026; vulnerability/security support ends April 30, 2028. The last date of Cisco support is April 30, 2030, subject to applicable entitlement. C1300-8T-E-2G is the replacement.
C1000-8T-2G-L provides data-only access ports, while C1000-8P-2G-L provides eight PoE+ access ports sharing a 67W budget. Both models are discontinued. C1000-8T-2G-L suits legacy sparing for independently powered endpoints; C1000-8P-2G-L suits an existing powered-endpoint installation only when its allocated load fits the shared budget.
C1000-8T-2G-L has a fixed internal power supply, while C1000-8T-E-2G-L uses an external power supply. Both models are discontinued and have eight Gigabit access ports with two combo uplinks. The internal-supply model suits matching internal-power installations; the external-supply variant suits legacy orders requiring the separate adapter arrangement.
C1000-8T-2G-L is discontinued, while C1300-8T-E-2G is its current replacement. C1000-8T-2G-L reached end of sale on April 30, 2025, and has a Cisco support endpoint of April 30, 2030. The older model serves legacy replacement requirements; the successor serves buyers who require a current replacement model.
ORM Systems offers C1000-8T-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 Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty is original-owner coverage, with Cisco service ending April 30, 2030, subject to eligibility.
