Smart Access Connectivity for Small Business Networks

CBS250-48T-4G is a smart-managed Layer 2+ access switch with 48 Gigabit copper ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, without PoE output. Its rack-mount 1U chassis belongs to the Cisco Business 250 family and connects externally powered computers, printers, and servers. The discontinued CBS250-48P-4G adds endpoint power delivery; the data-only configuration does not require allocating a shared PoE budget.

CBS250-48T-4G price for new stock is $593.25, a 22.2% saving from the Cisco list price of $762.75. CBS250-48T-4G refurb price is $215.25. CBS250-48T-4G is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

104 Gbps switching capacity and 77.38 Mpps forwarding at 64-byte packets support wire-speed operation. CBS250-48T-4G provides static IPv4 routing with manually configured next hops. A static route cannot traverse a directly connected subnet whose interface receives its address through DHCP. Business 250 switches lack hardware stacking, so centrally managing several chassis still requires separate device configurations and Ethernet interconnections.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies CBS250-48T-4G new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units have every copper port checked at rated speed, optics bay recognition checked, PSU and fan status verified, firmware verified, and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, regional ordering variant, and quantity on the PO. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, certified refurbished units up to 1 year, and every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply. Enterprise and volume POs are accepted, Net-30 is available for government, and RMA includes advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Best For

Installed Estate Replacement

Replacing discontinued SG250-50-K9-NA equipment creates an inventory-matching decision rather than a current-generation purchase. CBS250-48T-4G is its named replacement, but that replacement is also discontinued. Before the PO, distinguish matching an installed estate from purchasing a currently orderable successor, and confirm the regional ordering variant.

Replacement Stock Planning

When replacement inventory is being purchased for an existing installation, certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, and clean boot. Match the installed PID and administration requirements before the PO, and identify which units will enter service immediately versus remain held as spares.

Not Suitable If

PoE power for attached endpoints

CBS250-48T-4G does not deliver endpoint power. C1200-48P-4G is the current 48-port Gigabit PoE alternative, retaining four 1G SFP uplinks.

10G fiber uplinks to distribution

Four fixed 1G SFP uplinks limit CBS250-48T-4G to Gigabit uplink speeds. C1200-48T-4X retains 48 Gigabit access ports with 10G SFP+ uplinks.

Questions & Answers

What does the CBS250-48T-4G part number mean?

CBS250-48T-4G identifies a Cisco Business 250 switch with 48 non-PoE Gigabit copper ports and four Gigabit SFP uplinks. CBS250 names the family, 48T identifies the access-port configuration, and 4G identifies the uplinks. The North American ordering variant is CBS250-48T-4G-NA.

How are Cisco Business 250 switches managed?

Cisco Business 250 switches support a web UI, CLI through SSH or Telnet, an RJ-45 console, SNMP, Cisco Business Dashboard, and the Cisco Business mobile app. Select the administration path before staging, and define which administrators will receive configuration access.

Is CBS250-48T-4G discontinued?

Yes, CBS250-48T-4G-NA reached end of sale October 29, 2024. Software maintenance and vulnerability/security support ended October 29, 2025; final support ends October 31, 2029. Other regional variants have separate sale milestones.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for CBS250-48T-4G?

ORM Systems offers CBS250-48T-4G new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate limited lifetime hardware warranty is bounded by October 31, 2029, and does not extend ended software/security maintenance.

Does CBS250-48T-4G require a software subscription?

No, CBS250-48T-4G requires neither a software license purchase nor a subscription to operate; included features come with the hardware purchase. No network-license tier or minimum subscription term needs selecting. Specify hardware condition and required accessories rather than adding a software-tier selection to the PO.

Which older switches does CBS250-48T-4G replace?

CBS250-48T-4G replaces discontinued SG250-50-K9-AR, SG250-50-K9-AU, SG250-50-K9-BR, SG250-50-K9-EU, SG250-50-K9-IN, SG250-50-K9-JP, SG250-50-K9-NA, SG250-50-K9-UK, and SF250-48-K9-AR. Those predecessors reached end of sale October 30, 2021. Match the original regional PID before specifying replacement inventory; the CBS250 replacement is also discontinued.

What is the difference between CBS250-48T-4G and CBS250-48P-4G?

CBS250-48P-4G delivers PoE; CBS250-48T-4G does not. Both are discontinued. Externally powered endpoints suit the data-only model; buyers requiring endpoint power can specify current C1200-48P-4G.

What is the difference between CBS250-48T-4G and CBS250-48T-4X?

CBS250-48T-4X has four 10G SFP+ uplinks; CBS250-48T-4G has four 1G SFP uplinks. Both are discontinued. Existing Gigabit connections suit the latter; new 10G requirements point to C1200-48T-4X.

What is the difference between CBS250-48T-4G and C1200-48T-4G?

C1200-48T-4G is current; CBS250-48T-4G is discontinued. Both configurations provide 48 Gigabit copper ports and four Gigabit SFP uplinks. The former suits current-model purchasing; the latter suits installed-estate matching.

Can Cisco Business 250 switches form a hardware stack?

No, Cisco Business 250 switches cannot form a hardware stack. Dashboard management does not combine separate chassis into one forwarding system. Treat additional units as individual switches and plan their interconnections, management addresses, and configurations separately; a stacking cable does not add stacking capability.
