C1300-8P-E-2G Overview
C1300-8P-E-2G is a compact managed Layer 3 access switch in the Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series for small wiring closets and distributed branch edge builds that need PoE+ without moving to a larger port count. It provides 8 10/100/1000 RJ-45 PoE+ access ports and 2 fixed Gigabit copper/SFP combo uplinks, so copper endpoints and either copper or fiber uplinks share a single rack-mountable platform. The 67W PoE budget supports measured mixes of phones, cameras, and access points across the eight powered ports, while the fanless chassis fits quiet edge spaces. Web UI, CLI, SNMP, and Cisco Business Dashboard management place it above unmanaged desktop switches for controlled VLAN, security, and PoE administration. The sibling C1300-8FP-2G keeps the same 8-port access layout and combo uplinks but raises the PoE budget to 120W.
20 Gbps switching capacity delivers nonblocking throughput across the compact Gigabit port set. 14.88 Mpps forwarding rate supports wire-speed handling for 64-byte packets, while 67W shared PoE allocation lets engineers budget endpoint draw rather than assume every powered port runs at 30W at the same time. RIP v2 support, IPv4 routing, IPv6 routing, CIDR, PBR, DHCP relay, and UDP relay place routed segmentation close to the access edge without naming OSPF for this non-X model. C1300-8P-E-2G runs with 1 GB DDR4 DRAM, 1 GB SLC flash, a 1.5 MB packet buffer, and 16000 MAC table entries for the 1 Gigabit Ethernet SKU class. STP/RSTP/MSTP maintain loop control, LACP supports link aggregation, IGMP versions 1, 2, and 3 manage multicast membership, and 802.1X, SSH, HTTPS, syslog, TFTP, RADIUS, DHCP server, SCP, and cable diagnostics support secured access operations. Energy Efficient Ethernet 802.3az, cable length detection, time-based PoE, and persistent PoE add power-control behavior for smaller sites.
At the access tier, C1300-8P-E-2G terminates compact PoE endpoint groups such as IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, printers, and workstations before uplinking to a router, firewall, or distribution switch. This model does not use Catalyst 1300 hardware stacking, and its 1U rack-mount format keeps the deployment footprint controlled in branch rooms, cabinets, and small network racks. The external AC power design simplifies placement where a full 19-inch access switch is unnecessary, while supported SFP media lets the two combo uplinks match copper or fiber upstream paths. ORM Systems supplies this switch new and certified refurbished, with refurbished units tested for boot, management access, RJ-45 link, SFP recognition, PoE output, and power stability before dispatch. Send the SKU and required quantity for current pricing, condition options, and lead time; enterprise and volume buyers receive quote support for rollout batches, spares pools, multi-site refreshes, and mixed Cisco access-switch orders.

C1300-8P-E-2G Use Case
Access Layer Endpoint Handoff
C1300-8P-E-2G sits at the access edge and terminates copper runs from IP phones, cameras, access points, printers, and workstations on 8 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Network teams assign endpoint VLANs, QoS markings, 802.1X controls, and PoE limits at the port level, then reserve the two Gigabit copper/SFP combo ports for upstream handoff. The 67W PoE budget supports a measured set of powered devices without adding local injectors. The network gains a compact powered access point with controlled segmentation and predictable uplink placement.
Branch Edge Segmentation Point
C1300-8P-E-2G operates in a small branch rack between endpoint cabling and the local router or firewall. Engineers place voice, camera, wireless, and user traffic into separate VLANs, apply access controls on the RJ-45 ports, and use Layer 3 traffic management functions for local segmentation where the branch design requires it. The two 1G combo uplinks connect to copper or fiber upstream media without changing the access cabling. The result is a branch edge that separates endpoint domains before traffic reaches the WAN boundary.
Access to Distribution Uplink Handoff
The switch occupies a compact access position and presents aggregated endpoint traffic to a distribution switch through its two Gigabit RJ-45/SFP combo uplinks. Engineers match the uplink media to the fiber or copper plant, configure trunks or link aggregation where the upstream design supports it, and keep the 8 PoE+ access ports dedicated to local powered endpoints. C1300-8P-E-2G keeps endpoint power and uplink selection in one small rack-mountable unit. The distribution layer receives cleaner VLAN handoff from a defined eight-port access block.
