Fanless Access for Powered SMB Office Endpoints

C1300-24P-4X combines fanless operation with 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ access ports and four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. This managed Layer 2+ switch connects Ethernet-powered endpoints while keeping uplink connections separate from the copper access ports. Its full-width Rack-Mount 1U chassis serves SMB offices and enterprise branches that require local switching for computers, phones, wireless access points and surveillance equipment. The Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series runs customized Linux OS software rather than an enterprise network-license image. C1300-24T-4X is the nearest non-PoE sibling for installations that supply endpoint power independently. The uplink architecture uses built-in cages rather than a removable network-module bay, so the chassis configuration is fixed when the purchase order is placed. Select this configuration when Gigabit copper access and faster fiber distribution connections are both required.

C1300-24P-4X price for new stock is $990.15, a 34.5% saving from the Cisco list price of $1,512.00. C1300-24P-4X refurb price is $1,037.40. C1300-24P-4X is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

128 Gbps switching capacity accommodates the combined access and uplink interfaces, while 95.23 Mpps forwarding handles minimum-size Ethernet packets. Static routing, RIP v2 and PBR provide local traffic control; OSPF is not supported on this model. A 990-route IPv4 limit bounds the combined static and dynamic routing configuration, with 128 IP interfaces available. STP, RSTP and MSTP manage switched topology, and LACP supports grouped Ethernet connections. C1300-24P-4X carries 1 GB of DRAM and 1 GB of flash for its embedded software and configuration. Its 1.5 MB packet buffer is dynamically shared across the ports rather than reserved independently for each connection. Catalyst 1300 management includes a browser interface and a scriptable CLI, with SSH available for remote command access. 235.8W maximum consumption with PoE provides the load figure for sizing the upstream power circuit. A 16000-entry MAC table bounds learned endpoint addresses, while traffic queues and ingress policing support configured service priorities.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies C1300-24P-4X new sealed or certified refurbished; ORM warranties are up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, PSU status, PoE output under load on every powered port and optics bay recognition; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Cisco's separate hardware warranty is limited lifetime with return-to-factory replacement; returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. Specify condition and quantities on the purchase order; enterprise and volume orders accept POs, with government Net-30 and RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Allocate endpoint power first

Endpoint power must be allocated before ordering C1300-24P-4X: 24 x 30W = 720W exceeds its 195W shared budget. Specify each powered device's draw rather than assuming simultaneous maximum output.

Keep stack members compatible

Stack expansion requires C1300 Family 1 members; C1300-24P-4X cannot stack with C1300 Family 2 or Catalyst 1300X. Include SFP-H10GB-CU1M for short copper interconnects and reserve front-panel connections.

Specify fiber uplink optics

Fiber uplink orders for C1300-24P-4X require transceivers in addition to the chassis. Specify SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber or SFP-10G-LR for single-mode fiber, matched to the link and peer.

C1300-24P-4X Use Case

Access Layer Powered Endpoint Edge

C1300-24P-4X sits in a wiring closet and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and access points on 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Engineers allocate the 195W PoE budget by endpoint class, then apply VLANs, QoS, 802.1X, port security, and DHCP snooping at the access edge. The four 10G SFP+ ports carry northbound trunks or routed links toward distribution. The network gains powered endpoint aggregation with local policy control and enough uplink bandwidth for a 24-port branch access closet deployment.

Access to Distribution Handoff

The switch occupies the access layer and presents aggregated endpoint traffic to distribution over four 10G SFP+ uplinks. Network teams configure 802.1Q trunks, LACP groups, routed interfaces, or policy-based routing according to the upstream design, while the 24 1G PoE+ ports keep powered clients on local copper runs. C1300-24P-4X separates moderate endpoint PoE demand from higher-speed distribution handoff. The network gains a compact access block that avoids 1G uplink congestion during branch or closet refreshes without changing endpoint cabling plans.

Stacked Access Expansion Point

Multiple C1300 Family 1 switches form a front-panel stack when one access closet needs more managed Gigabit PoE+ ports under a single operating view. C1300-24P-4X contributes 24 PoE+ access ports and four SFP+ interfaces, with selected 10G links assigned to stack connectivity rather than endpoint traffic. Engineers keep stack members within the supported Catalyst 1300 family and plan ring or chain cabling before deployment. The network gains expanded port count, unified management, and cleaner failover behavior across the access block.

Best For

Installed Equipment Refresh

An installed C1000-24P-4X-L estate creates a replacement purchasing trigger because that model ended sales on April 30, 2025. C1300-24P-4X is its replacement, but a hardware migration still requires reviewing the existing configuration and connected equipment. Specify the replacement quantity and validate the migration configuration before issuing the purchase order.

Multi-Site Management Standardization

A branch rollout using Cisco Business Dashboard can use the embedded probe on C1300-24P-4X rather than adding a separate onsite probe appliance or virtual machine. This changes the management components required at each location. Specify the dashboard onboarding workflow and verify that each site's management connectivity is included in the rollout plan.

Lab and Software Staging

A staging purchase intended to validate software changes can use the dual-image capability of C1300-24P-4X before equipment enters production. The retained image and candidate image should be treated as separate test inputs, not as a substitute for configuration validation. Specify the intended software image and acceptance checks before ordering the staging units.

Not Suitable If

PoE++ above 30W per port

C1300-24P-4X limits powered ports to 30W PoE+. C1300X-24MU-4X provides eight 60W PoE++ ports, but also changes the access configuration to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet.

OSPF dynamic routing

C1300-24P-4X supports static routing, RIP v2 and PBR, but not OSPF. Catalyst 1300X supports OSPF v2 and v3 for deployments requiring that routing protocol.

Multi-Gigabit copper access

C1300-24P-4X copper access ports stop at 1 Gbps. C1300-24MGP-4X provides eight 2.5G ports plus sixteen Gigabit ports, rather than Multi-Gigabit access on every port.

Questions & Answers

What does the C1300-24P-4X part number mean?

C1300-24P-4X identifies a Catalyst 1300 switch: C1300 is the series, 24 is the access-port count, P denotes PoE+, and 4X denotes four 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks. The access ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet and share available power rather than each receiving a full simultaneous allocation.

How is the Catalyst 1300 managed?

Catalyst 1300 supports a web UI, CLI over SSH or Telnet, RJ-45 or USB-C console access, Cisco Business Dashboard, the Cisco Business mobile app and SNMP. An optional external Bluetooth dongle also enables browser or CLI access. Specify any required CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 or CAB-CONSOLE-USB-C= cable before ordering.

How much PoE power does C1300-24P-4X provide?

C1300-24P-4X provides a shared 195W PoE budget across 24 powered ports, with 30W PoE+ capability per port. All ports cannot deliver their individual maximum simultaneously because 24 x 30W requires 720W. Size the endpoint allocation using actual device requirements before specifying the powered-device population.

Which uplink optics can C1300-24P-4X use?

C1300-24P-4X has four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks supporting SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber and SFP-10G-LR for single-mode fiber. SFP-H10GB-CU1M is a supported short copper connection option. Specify the appropriate transceiver or cable PID for the installed media and peer rather than ordering an uplink expansion card.

How many C1300-24P-4X switches can be stacked?

C1300-24P-4X supports eight members through Front Panel Stacking and belongs to C1300 Family 1. Members from C1300 Family 2 or Catalyst 1300X cannot join that stack. SFP-H10GB-CU1M provides a supported short copper interconnect option; reserve the required front-panel connections when specifying the stack topology.

What routing capabilities does C1300-24P-4X include?

C1300-24P-4X supports static routing, RIP v2 and PBR, with a combined limit of 990 IPv4 routes and 128 IP interfaces. OSPF is not supported on this model. Compare the planned route count and routing protocol requirements against these limits before specifying the switch for routed access.

Is C1300-24P-4X rack-mountable and fanless?

C1300-24P-4X is a fanless Rack-Mount 1U switch, and its package includes 19-inch mounting brackets. The chassis is 444.3 mm wide and 299 mm deep. Operation extends from -5°C to 50°C, but cold start requires at least 0°C; verify enclosure conditions before specifying the installation.

What is the lifecycle status of Catalyst 1300?

Cisco has not announced an end-of-sale date for Catalyst 1300. C1300-24P-4X remains a replacement option for discontinued predecessor switches. End-of-sale milestones attached to older equipment do not discontinue its replacement. Keep the quoted product's lifecycle separate from the dates associated with equipment being retired.

Which older switches does C1300-24P-4X replace?

C1300-24P-4X replaces C1000-24P-4X-L and CBS350-24P-4X-AR, CBS350-24P-4X-AU, CBS350-24P-4X-BR, CBS350-24P-4X-CN, CBS350-24P-4X-EU, CBS350-24P-4X-IN, CBS350-24P-4X-JP, CBS350-24P-4X-NA, CBS350-24P-4X-SP, CBS350-24P-4X-TW and CBS350-24P-4X-UK. C1000-24P-4X-L ended sales on April 30, 2025; CBS350-24P-4X-NA ended sales on October 29, 2024. Match the installed regional PID and validate configuration migration before specifying replacement quantities on the purchase order.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for C1300-24P-4X?

ORM Systems offers C1300-24P-4X new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Cisco's separate hardware warranty is limited lifetime with return-to-factory replacement. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply.

What is the difference between C1300-24P-4X and C1300-24T-4X?

C1300-24P-4X supplies PoE+ to its access ports, while C1300-24T-4X does not provide endpoint power. Both retain the same port density and uplink configuration. Choose the powered model for Ethernet-powered endpoints and the non-PoE model when endpoint power is supplied independently.

What is the difference between C1300-24P-4X and C1300-8P-E-2G?

C1300-24P-4X uses an internal AC supply, while C1300-8P-E-2G requires an external AC adapter. The external-adapter model also has only eight access ports, so it is not a same-density substitute. The internal-supply model suits centralized rack power; the smaller model suits buyers specifying an external-adapter installation.

What is the difference between C1300-24P-4X and C1300-24P-4G?

C1300-24P-4X carries four 10G SFP+ uplinks, whereas C1300-24P-4G carries four Gigabit SFP uplinks. Both provide 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports. Specify the 4X model when distribution connections require 10G; the 4G model suits installations whose distribution links remain at Gigabit speed.
