C1300-24XS Overview
C1300-24XS is a fiber-dense 10G managed Layer 3 switch for aggregation, server access, and high-speed branch switching. It provides 24 fixed 10G data ports, made up of 20 dedicated 10G SFP+ ports and four 10G RJ-45/SFP+ combo ports, with one Gigabit Ethernet out-of-band management port for administration. The switch is Non-PoE, rack-mountable in 1U, and belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series. Its uplinks are fixed because the SFP+ and combo interfaces are built into the chassis rather than delivered through a separate network module. The dedicated fiber layout suits transceiver and DAC handoffs where a compact rack needs more optical density than copper access. A close sibling, C1300-24XT, differs by using 20 10G copper ports with four 10G copper/SFP+ combo ports, while this model prioritises SFP+ fiber and DAC density.
480 Gbps switching capacity delivers wire-speed, nonblocking forwarding across the 24-port 10G design. 357.14 Mpps forwarding rate supports dense small-packet traffic across aggregation trunks, server NICs, and storage-facing paths. N/A PoE budget reflects the Non-PoE hardware profile, keeping the platform focused on data transport rather than endpoint power. IPv4 and IPv6 routing operate at wire speed, with RIP v2, policy-based routing, DHCP relay, routed physical ports, routed VLAN interfaces, LAG interfaces, and loopback interfaces documented for the platform. C1300-24XS includes 1 GB DDR4 DRAM, 1 GB SLC flash, an 8 MB shared packet buffer, and a 32000-entry MAC table for Layer 2 forwarding scale. Security and traffic controls include 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, ACLs, QoS, and iSCSI traffic optimisation. Management access spans Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, web GUI, full CLI, SNMP, SSH, HTTPS, syslog, RJ-45 console, USB Type-C console, and the dedicated management port.
At the network edge between access and distribution, C1300-24XS aggregates fiber access switches, virtualisation hosts, storage appliances, and copper devices attached through the shared RJ-45 positions. Hardware stacking places the switch in a same-family Catalyst 1300 stack of eight members, managed through one IP address with cross-stack VLANs, LAG, QoS, and port mirroring. The 444.3 mm wide, 43.94 mm high chassis occupies a single rack unit, runs from 100-240V AC input, and operates from -5°C to 50°C in wiring closets and equipment rooms. ORM Systems supplies this model new and certified refurbished; refurbished units are tested for optic link operation, combo-port selection, management access, fan status, and firmware condition. Request pricing with required quantity, optic plan, power-cord region, and delivery location. Enterprise and volume buyers get coordinated batch sourcing, accessory matching, and delivery planning for repeat rack builds and multi-site 10G refreshes.

C1300-24XS Use Case
Fiber Aggregation Handoff
C1300-24XS sits at the aggregation point for 10G fiber or DAC links from access switches, small distribution blocks, and shared service racks. Engineers terminate high-speed uplinks on 20 dedicated 10G SFP+ ports, reserve the four 10G copper/SFP+ combo ports for mixed handoffs, and configure VLAN trunks, LACP groups, ACLs, and Layer 3 interfaces where local routing is required. The dedicated Gigabit management port keeps operational access separate from data paths. The network gains compact 10G aggregation without consuming a chassis platform.
Server Access Switching
The switch operates at the server-access layer for racks that use SFP+ NICs, DAC cables, and selected 10GBASE-T handoffs. C1300-24XS connects host uplinks and storage-facing interfaces across 20 10G SFP+ ports, then uses the four combo ports for copper appliances or additional SFP+ links. Engineers apply VLAN segmentation, QoS, LACP, jumbo frames, and iSCSI traffic optimisation to keep east-west and backup flows organised. The dedicated management port separates administration from data traffic. The rack gains a defined 10G access point with predictable port roles and management visibility.
Stacked 10G Expansion Block
C1300-24XS participates in a Catalyst 1300 Family 2 hardware stack when a site needs more 10G ports under one control plane. Engineers stack up to eight same-family switches, assign stack roles, and manage the combined system through one IP address while using cross-stack VLANs, LAGs, QoS, and port mirroring. The SFP+ density supports repeated aggregation or server-access blocks as racks grow, while hardware failover protects the stack control path. The result is expanded 10G capacity with single-system administration and resilient operations.
