C1200-16T-2G delivers fanless, Layer 2+ access switching through 16 Gigabit copper ports and two fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The non-PoE model connects independently powered endpoints, including desktop computers, printers, and servers, without supplying endpoint power through Ethernet. Its compact desktop chassis belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 1200 series and supports installation outside a wiring closet. C1200-16P-2G adds PoE+ for buyers who need Ethernet-powered endpoints instead. A 16-port Gigabit smart switch with dedicated fiber uplinks keeps copper connections available for local devices while the separate SFP cages handle fiber connections to the upstream network.
C1200-16T-2G price for new stock is $391.65, a 37.6% saving from the Cisco list price of $627.92. C1200-16T-2G refurb price is $215.25. C1200-16T-2G is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

36 Gbps switching capacity provides nonblocking traffic handling across the installed interfaces, while 26.78 Mpps forwarding applies to 64-byte packets. Static routing supports 32 IPv4 routes and 16 IP interfaces for explicitly defined paths between local networks; dynamic routing is not part of the feature set. C1200-16T-2G carries 1 GB of DRAM and 512 MB of flash for its embedded software and configuration. An 8000-entry MAC table supports learned forwarding addresses, and a shared 1.5 MB packet buffer handles traffic across all ports. STP/RSTP/MSTP provide Layer 2 loop control, while LACP supports four groups with eight active ports per group. Eight hardware queues permit differentiated traffic scheduling through strict priority or weighted round-robin operation. The customized Linux OS supports scriptable full and menu-based CLI access. Port security can limit learned source addresses, and ingress or egress ACLs enforce up to 512 rules against selected traffic.
ORM Systems supplies C1200-16T-2G new sealed or certified refurbished, with refurbished units inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, rated-speed links on every port, and optics bay recognition; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the required condition, quantity, regional power cord, and installation accessories on the purchase order. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty and certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. POs are accepted, government buyers receive Net-30 terms, and enterprise or volume orders can use regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US, and MEA, including RMA with advance replacement.

When a branch order must separate employee, guest, voice, and surveillance traffic, the switch can maintain 255 active VLANs simultaneously. Voice VLAN and Auto Surveillance VLAN are available for endpoint grouping. Define the required VLAN assignments and trunk configuration before specifying the branch quantity on the PO.
When several sites need the same starting configuration, text-editable configuration files can be prepared and downloaded to another switch. An embedded Cisco Business Dashboard probe removes the need for a separate onsite probe appliance or virtual machine. Specify the management approach and approved configuration file before ordering the site quantities.
When a staging lab must reproduce larger Ethernet frames before deployment, the switch supports jumbo frames to 9000 bytes and starts with a 2000-byte default MTU. Check the intended frame size throughout the connected path, then specify the lab units and configuration requirements on the purchase order.
PoE power for connected endpoints
C1200-16T-2G supplies data but no endpoint power. C1200-16P-2G provides 16 PoE+ ports with a shared 120W budget for buyers specifying Ethernet-powered devices.
10G fiber uplinks to distribution
C1200-16T-2G has 1G-only SFP uplinks. C1200-24T-4X provides four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks, but also changes the access configuration to 24 Gigabit copper ports.
Dynamic routing between local subnets
C1200-16T-2G supports static routing only, with 32 IPv4 routes and 16 IP interfaces; networks requiring dynamic route exchange exceed those routing capabilities.

C1200-16T-2G identifies the Catalyst 1200 family, 16 copper access ports, the T non-PoE configuration, and two Gigabit SFP uplinks represented by 2G. The copper ports support 10/100/1000 speeds. The part number has no separate software-tier suffix, and the SFP uplinks are dedicated rather than copper/SFP combo connections.
C1200-16T-2G supports HTTP/HTTPS web management, CLI over SSH or Telnet, RJ-45 and USB-C consoles, Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP. An external Bluetooth dongle also enables browser or CLI access. For wired console access, specify CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 or CAB-CONSOLE-USB-C alongside the required switch condition.
Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 1200. C1200-16T-2G remains available to order within that series. Its lifecycle is separate from the discontinued regional CBS250 predecessors, so their retirement dates do not mark the end of sale of this model.
ORM Systems supplies C1200-16T-2G new sealed or certified refurbished. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's separate platform warranty is Limited Lifetime with return-to-factory replacement.
C1200-16T-2G requires no separately purchased switch software license or software subscription, and software updates are available at no additional cost. There is no switch license tier or minimum subscription term to add to the order. This licensing model also applies when ordering the switch certified refurbished.
C1200-16T-2G replaces CBS250-16T-2G-AR, CBS250-16T-2G-AU, CBS250-16T-2G-BR, CBS250-16T-2G-EU, CBS250-16T-2G-JP, CBS250-16T-2G-NA, CBS250-16T-2G-SP, CBS250-16T-2G-UK, and CBS250-16T-2G-IN. The first eight reached end of sale on October 29, 2024; CBS250-16T-2G-IN reached end of sale on January 31, 2025. These are discontinued regional predecessors, not alternative current models to order.
C1200-16T-2G does not supply PoE, while C1200-16P-2G adds 16 PoE+ ports with a shared 120W power budget. The powered model supports 30W per port only within that total allocation. C1200-16T-2G suits independently powered endpoints; C1200-16P-2G suits purchases that must also provide endpoint power.
C1200-16T-2G uses an internal AC supply, whereas C1200-8T-E-2G uses an external AC adapter. The externally powered model also reduces the access-port count from 16 to eight. C1200-16T-2G suits buyers wanting power contained inside the chassis; C1200-8T-E-2G suits smaller installations where an external adapter is acceptable.
C1200-16T-2G has two 1G SFP uplinks, while C1200-24T-4X has four 10G SFP+ uplinks. These are fixed uplink configurations rather than removable-card upgrades. C1200-16T-2G suits buyers connecting to 1G distribution links; C1200-24T-4X suits buyers who need the additional uplink connections and fixed 10G speeds.
C1200-16T-2G supports static routing with a maximum of 32 IPv4 routes and 16 IP interfaces. Routing interfaces can be physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLAN interfaces, or loopback interfaces. The switch is a Layer 2+ choice for explicitly configured local routes, not a dynamic-routing replacement.
C1200-16T-2G can be installed in a 19-inch rack using RCKMNT-CMPCT-1K=, ordered separately. Its compact desktop chassis measures 268 mm wide, 272 mm deep, and 44 mm high. The standard 19-inch brackets included with larger models do not accompany this 16-port switch, so include RCKMNT-CMPCT-1K= when rack mounting.
C1200-16T-2G accepts 1G SFP transceivers such as GLC-SX-MMD for multimode fiber and GLC-LH-SMD for single-mode fiber. GLC-SX-MMD supports distances to 550 m; GLC-LH-SMD supports distances to 10 km. Select matching fiber and compatible transceivers at both ends; the fixed SFP cages are not 10G SFP+ uplinks.
C1200-16T-2G uses an internal AC supply accepting 100-240V AC at 50-60 Hz. Maximum system consumption is 11W at 220V, compared with 10.8W at 110V. The switch needs an AC connection and does not receive power through an Ethernet PD port, so include an appropriate regional power cord.
Catalyst 1200 provides eight hardware queues, strict-priority or weighted round-robin scheduling, port security, and up to 512 ACL rules. ACLs can act on ingress or egress traffic, while port security limits learned source addresses. Specify the required traffic classification and access rules before loading the switch configuration.
Catalyst 1200 supports four LACP groups, with eight active ports per group and 16 candidate ports for each dynamic group. The series also supports STP/RSTP/MSTP for loop control. Plan the aggregation membership and loop-prevention configuration together, then specify the required physical connections before ordering.
