Powered Access for Small Business Networks

C1200-48P-4X is a 48-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch with four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks, managed Layer 2+ forwarding and a 1U rack-mount chassis. The Cisco Catalyst 1200 Series serves small and medium-sized businesses connecting office workstations, IP phones, wireless access points and surveillance cameras. Endpoint power is delivered over the copper access connections, while the fiber uplink cages connect the access switch to higher-speed aggregation equipment. Voice VLAN and Auto Surveillance VLAN separate endpoint traffic, and quality-of-service controls prioritize traffic according to configured policies. Compared with C1200-48T-4X, which has non-PoE access ports, this configuration adds network power for connected endpoints. Port security restricts learned source addresses at individual connections, while access control lists apply forwarding restrictions to selected traffic.

C1200-48P-4X price for new stock is $987.00, a 44.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $1,772.39. C1200-48P-4X refurb price is $724.50. C1200-48P-4X is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

176 Gbps switching capacity accommodates the copper access interfaces and uplinks without a blocking switch fabric. 130.94 Mpps forwarding at a 64-byte packet size provides the packet-processing figure for traffic sizing. 375W of shared PoE capacity requires endpoint allocations to remain within the total available power. Static routing handles local IPv4 forwarding with 32 routes and 16 IP interfaces. C1200-48P-4X carries 1 GB of DRAM and 512 MB of flash for its embedded software and saved configuration. The 3 MB packet buffer is shared dynamically across ports rather than reserved equally for each connection. An 8000-entry MAC table sets the learned-address limit, and STP, RSTP and MSTP support loop prevention. Administrators can use the web interface, a scriptable CLI, Cisco Business Dashboard or the Cisco Business mobile app; SNMPv3 supports external monitoring. One cooling fan makes airflow planning relevant to the equipment location.

Ordering

Specify quantity and condition on the PO for C1200-48P-4X, offered by ORM Systems as new sealed or certified refurbished. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with PoE output verified under load on every powered port, firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM's warranty is up to 3-year extended for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units; 30-day returns cover every condition, terms apply, separately from Cisco's limited lifetime return-to-factory hardware warranty. Enterprise and volume orders support PO acceptance, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, with UK, EU, US and MEA stock and RMA coverage.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

No switch subscription required

C1200-48P-4X requires no separately purchased switch software license or subscription, including on ORM certified refurbished orders. Specify the hardware condition and physical accessories rather than a software subscription term.

Size aggregate endpoint power

C1200-48P-4X cannot allocate maximum per-port power across all copper ports: 48 × 30W = 1440W exceeds its shared 375W budget. Specify concurrent endpoint power allocations before ordering.

Order fiber media separately

C1200-48P-4X requires separately ordered SFP-10G-SR or SFP-10G-LR transceivers for fiber uplinks. Select SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber or SFP-10G-LR for single-mode fiber according to cable type and link distance.

Keep refurbishment conditions separate

C1200-48P-4X-RF identifies Cisco-remanufactured hardware, not ORM's certified refurbishment. Specify new sealed or certified refurbished when ordering C1200-48P-4X so the condition on the PO matches the intended refurbishment process.

Best For

Installed Hardware Refresh

When replacing discontinued CBS250-48P-4X-NA hardware, C1200-48P-4X is the named replacement. The predecessor reached end of sale on October 29, 2024. Treat the refresh as a configuration migration, and capture existing VLAN assignments, addressing, endpoint requirements and management settings before specifying the replacement quantity and accessories on the PO.

Repeated Branch Rollouts

For repeat branch rollouts, C1200-48P-4X supports Cisco Network Plug and Play with Cisco PnP Connect. Text-editable configuration files allow a common configuration to be adapted for individual locations. Set the provisioning method, site-specific addressing and configuration ownership before putting each branch quantity on the PO.

Local Console Staging

When a staging bench needs local access before network management is configured, CAB-CONSOLE-USB-C= and CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 provide supported console cable choices. RJ-45 console and USB Type C console connections are available. Specify CAB-CONSOLE-USB-C= or CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 to match the staging workstation before completing the accessories section of the PO.

Not Suitable If

Endpoints needing more than 30W

C1200-48P-4X limits PoE+ delivery to 30W per port. Endpoints requiring higher per-port allocations fall outside that limit, regardless of unused power elsewhere.

More than 32 static routes

C1200-48P-4X supports 32 IPv4 static routes and 16 IP interfaces. A routing design exceeding either limit requires equipment with a larger routing configuration capacity.

Multigigabit copper endpoint connections

C1200-48P-4X provides Gigabit Ethernet on its copper access ports. Faster SFP+ uplinks serve aggregation links rather than increasing the copper endpoint connection speed.

Questions & Answers

What does the C1200-48P-4X part number mean?

C1200-48P-4X identifies a Catalyst 1200 switch: C1200 denotes the series, 48 denotes the copper access-port count, P identifies PoE+ access ports, and 4X identifies four 10G SFP+ uplinks. The complete PID has no separate license-tier suffix. Its powered-port configuration includes a shared 375W endpoint power budget.

How is the Catalyst 1200 managed?

Catalyst 1200 switches are managed through an HTTP/HTTPS web interface, CLI over SSH or Telnet, RJ-45 or USB Type C console, Cisco Business Dashboard and the Cisco Business mobile app. SNMP versions 1, 2c and 3 support monitoring. Optional Bluetooth management access requires an external dongle.

Does C1200-48P-4X require a software license or subscription?

C1200-48P-4X requires no separately purchased switch software license or subscription, and software updates are available at no additional cost. The same switch software requirement applies to ORM certified refurbished orders. There are no switch license tiers or minimum subscription terms to add to the hardware purchase.

How much PoE power does C1200-48P-4X provide?

C1200-48P-4X supports PoE+ on 48 access ports with a shared 375W budget and a 30W per-port maximum. The budget cannot cover 30W simultaneously on every port. List each endpoint's required allocation and total the concurrent demand before selecting the powered-port configuration.

Which uplink speeds and connection options does C1200-48P-4X support?

C1200-48P-4X has four fixed SFP+ uplinks supporting 10G or 1G operation. SFP-10G-SR supports multimode fiber, SFP-10G-LR supports single-mode fiber, and SFP-H10GB-CU3M supports a 3 m copper coax connection. Order the selected uplink media separately and match the peer interface, fiber type and cable length.

What routing capacity does C1200-48P-4X support?

C1200-48P-4X supports IPv4 static routing with 32 static routes and 16 IP interfaces. Local routing can connect VLANs or other configured IP interfaces. Check both limits against the proposed addressing and inter-VLAN routing design before ordering, rather than sizing the routing requirement from Ethernet port count alone.

What is the maximum power draw of C1200-48P-4X?

C1200-48P-4X has a worst-case power draw of 462.84W at 110V with PoE load; the corresponding 220V figure is 449.48W. The internal supply accepts 100-240V AC. Size the circuit and any upstream backup power equipment for loaded consumption, not just the endpoint power budget.

Is C1200-48P-4X a rack-mount switch?

C1200-48P-4X is a 1U rack-mount switch measuring 445 mm wide, 350 mm deep and 44 mm high, with a weight of 5.43 kg. RCKMNT-1RU-1K= is the compatible rack-mount kit. Specify RCKMNT-1RU-1K= separately if replacement mounting hardware is needed, and allow space for cabling behind the chassis.

Is the Catalyst 1200 series end of sale?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 1200. C1200-48P-4X remains an available model in the series. End-of-sale dates for discontinued CBS250 predecessors belong to those older switches and do not establish a discontinuation milestone for the replacement hardware.

Which older switches does C1200-48P-4X replace?

C1200-48P-4X replaces discontinued CBS250-48P-4X-AR, CBS250-48P-4X-AU, CBS250-48P-4X-BR, CBS250-48P-4X-EU, CBS250-48P-4X-JP, CBS250-48P-4X-NA, CBS250-48P-4X-SP, CBS250-48P-4X-TW and CBS250-48P-4X-UK, whose end-of-sale date was October 29, 2024, plus discontinued CBS250-48P-4X-IN, whose end-of-sale date was January 31, 2025. Match the complete regional PID when planning replacement orders; those predecessor milestones are not discontinuation dates for Catalyst 1200.

What is the difference between C1200-48P-4X and C1200-48T-4X?

C1200-48P-4X supplies PoE+ on its copper access ports, while C1200-48T-4X has non-PoE access ports. Both configurations retain 48 Gigabit copper connections and four 10G SFP+ uplinks. The powered model suits endpoints drawing network power; C1200-48T-4X suits separately powered endpoints without a PoE requirement.

What is the difference between C1200-48P-4X and C1200-48P-4G?

C1200-48P-4X has four 10G SFP+ uplinks, whereas C1200-48P-4G has four 1G SFP uplinks. Both models provide 48 Gigabit PoE+ access ports with a 375W budget. Specify C1200-48P-4X for 10G aggregation links or C1200-48P-4G when the uplink requirement is Gigabit Ethernet.

What is the difference between C1200-48P-4X and C1200-24FP-4X?

C1200-48P-4X provides 48 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, while C1200-24FP-4X provides 24. Both retain four 10G SFP+ uplinks and a 375W PoE budget. Choose C1200-48P-4X for higher endpoint connection counts; C1200-24FP-4X suits fewer connections sharing the same total endpoint power allocation.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for C1200-48P-4X?

ORM Systems offers C1200-48P-4X new sealed and certified refurbished, separately from Cisco's limited lifetime hardware warranty with return-to-factory replacement. ORM's new warranty is up to 3-year extended; certified refurbished coverage is up to 1 year. Returns are available for 30 days on every condition; terms apply.
