C1300-48FP-4X Overview

C1300-48FP-4X is a Cisco Catalyst 1300 managed Layer 3 switch for branch and SMB access networks that need 48 x 1G copper PoE+ ports, 4 x 10G SFP+ fixed uplinks, and a 740W PoE budget. The uplinks are fixed on the base switch rather than supplied through a modular bay, so the 10G uplink profile is part of the SKU. The switch is rack-mountable and belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 1300 family, which runs customized Linux OS software and is managed through Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, web interface, CLI, and SNMP. Compared with C1300-48P-4X, this SKU uses the full-power 740W PoE budget instead of the 370W PoE budget.

176 Gbps switching capacity supports dense Gigabit Ethernet access traffic across the 48 copper downlinks and 10G SFP+ uplinks. 130.94 Mpps forwarding rate keeps packet handling aligned with the 48-port Catalyst 1300 access design. 740W PoE budget supports powered endpoints across the access edge with 30W PoE+ capability per copper port. Layer 3 services include IPv4 routing, IPv6 routing, RIP v2, CIDR, policy-based routing, DHCP server, DHCP relay, and UDP relay, while OSPF is reserved for Catalyst 1300X SKUs. C1300-48FP-4X uses 1 GB DDR4 DRAM, 1 GB SLC flash, a 16,000-entry MAC table, 1.5 MB packet buffer, support for up to 4094 VLANs, IEEE 802.3ad LACP, STP/RSTP/MSTP, and security features such as 802.1X, DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard, and Dynamic ARP Inspection.

C1300-48FP-4X fits branch access closets, SMB aggregation edges, and refresh projects where copper endpoint density, PoE+ power, and 10G uplink handoff need to stay in one rack-mountable switch. It connects workstations, IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, printers, and other copper endpoints while feeding distribution or core switching through SFP+ links. Front-panel stacking supports up to eight C1300 switches from the same stacking family, allowing larger access blocks to be managed as a single system. ORM Systems supplies this switch in new and certified refurbished condition, with refurbishment checks focused on RJ-45 ports, PoE behavior, SFP+ uplink response, fan status, boot health, and management access.

C1300-48FP-4X Use Case

Branch Access Layer

C1300-48FP-4X operates at the branch access layer where 48 x 1G copper ports connect workstations, IP phones, cameras, printers, and wireless access points. Engineers assign VLANs, apply PoE policy, validate endpoint power draw against the 740W budget, and use the 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks for upstream handoff. The switch keeps high-density powered access and fiber aggregation in one rack-mountable Catalyst 1300 platform. The network gains a managed access node with clear power, port density, uplink capacity, and operational ownership.

PoE Endpoint Refresh

A PoE endpoint refresh uses C1300-48FP-4X where older access switches need replacement with 48 PoE+ ports and higher uplink bandwidth. Network teams migrate endpoint groups by VLAN, stage Cisco Business Dashboard management, confirm RJ-45 link behavior, and size the powered-device plan around the 740W budget. The 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks connect the refreshed access layer to aggregation without adding a separate uplink module. The refresh delivers consistent endpoint power, cleaner access-to-distribution handoff, and a repeatable switch profile for future closets.

Front-Panel Stacked Operations

A front-panel stacked access block uses C1300-48FP-4X where multiple Catalyst 1300 Family 1 switches need shared management and hardware failover. Engineers align stack members, connect the approved SFP+ stack paths, configure VLANs and LAG policy, and validate PoE behavior before production cutover. Each member contributes 48 powered access ports and 4 x 10G SFP+ interfaces to the closet design. The stack reduces per-switch administration and creates a repeatable access block for growing branch or SMB environments with consistent monitoring and failover handling.
