CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK is a fanless, Layer 2+ smart managed desktop switch with eight 10/100/1000 PoE+ access ports and two fixed 1G copper/SFP combo uplinks. Each combo connection can use copper or fiber, but its RJ-45 connector and SFP cage cannot operate simultaneously. The Cisco Business 250 series serves small-business networks connecting computers, IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras, while supporting local communication between configured VLAN interfaces. An external AC adapter powers the compact chassis rather than an internal supply. Discontinued CBS250-8P-E-2G-UK is the closest lower-power sibling, with a smaller PoE budget. The eight-port Gigabit PoE smart switch fits existing installations requiring this connection layout, rather than a configuration with removable uplink cards or faster backbone connections.

20 Gbps switching capacity supports wire-speed, nonblocking forwarding across the available ports. 14.88 Mpps forwarding at a 64-byte packet size defines the packet-processing rate. 120W of shared PoE capacity must cover the attached powered devices; the 30W per-port ceiling does not mean every powered port can draw that amount together. Static routing supports local IPv4 communication, and IPv6 packet routing is also supported; dynamic route exchange is absent. CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK provides 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for its embedded software and configuration storage, with 1.5 MB of packet buffering shared across ports. STP, RSTP, and MSTP handle Layer 2 loop control, while LACP groups physical connections. Eight hardware queues support traffic prioritization, and ingress policing plus egress shaping control configured flows. Management supports HTTPS, SSH, and SNMP, with firmware transfers available through SCP or TFTP. A maximum draw of 147.48W including PoE provides the worst-case figure for sizing the AC load.
Specify CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK as new sealed or certified refurbished, and put the selected condition and regional power requirements on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE verification under load on every powered port, firmware verification, and configuration wiping to factory default. ORM covers new units with up to a 3-year extended warranty and certified refurbished units for up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco's separate Limited Lifetime warranty ends October 31, 2029. Enterprise and volume purchasing accepts POs, provides Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When separate office workgroups require local routed communication, IP interfaces can be assigned to physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLAN interfaces, or loopbacks. A maximum of 16 IP interfaces constrains the addressing design; confirm the interface count, subnet plan, and intended gateway assignments before specifying the configuration on the purchase order.
When repeated branch orders need the same configuration baseline, text-editable configuration files support reuse across switches, while Cisco Network Plug and Play supports provisioning updates. Cisco Business Dashboard uses an embedded probe rather than a separate probe appliance; specify the provisioning workflow and management credentials before releasing the purchase order.
When acceptance testing requires packet capture before production handover, port mirroring can send traffic from four source ports to one destination port for analysis. The staging configuration must reserve that destination for the analyzer rather than an endpoint; specify the capture connection and test configuration with the order.
Uplinks faster than Gigabit Ethernet
The fixed combo uplinks stop at 1G. C1200-24P-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but changes the configuration to 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports.
Dynamic routing between network segments
The switch supports static routing rather than dynamic route exchange. Its routing scale is 32 IPv4 static routes with a maximum of 16 IP interfaces.

CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK decodes as CBS250 for Business 250 smart switching, 8 for eight Gigabit access ports, FP for Full PoE, E for external power, and 2G for two Gigabit combo uplinks. UK selects the regional version for the United Kingdom and other supported markets; it is not a license tier.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK supports browser management, CLI access, Cisco Business Dashboard, the Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP. The CLI is available through the console, SSH, or Telnet; the web interface uses HTTP or HTTPS. Dashboard integration uses an embedded probe, and SNMP supports versions 1, 2c, and 3.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK is discontinued: end of sale was October 29, 2024, and Cisco support ends October 31, 2029. Software maintenance, planned security fixes, and included phone support ended October 29, 2025. C1200-8FP-2G is the current replacement, so distinguish remaining hardware support from continuing software maintenance.
ORM Systems offers CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate Limited Lifetime hardware warranty is bounded by the October 31, 2029 last date of support.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK provides a shared 120W PoE budget across eight powered access ports, with a maximum of 30W on an individual port. The aggregate budget limits simultaneous delivery, so eight maximum-draw devices cannot all receive their individual ceiling together. Size the order against actual endpoint requirements.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK has two 1G copper/SFP combo uplinks, with only one medium active per combo port. Each SFP slot shares its logical port with an RJ-45 connector. MGBSX1 supports multimode fiber and MGBLX1 supports single-mode fiber; neither uplink supports 10G operation.
Cisco Business 250 supports IPv4 static routing and IPv6 packet routing; the IPv4 limit is 32 static routes with 16 IP interfaces. Interfaces can be assigned to physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLANs, or loopbacks. This is Layer 2+ switching with static routing rather than dynamic routing.
No, CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK is a 268 mm-wide desktop switch, not a full-width rack chassis. The fanless enclosure measures 44 mm high and 185 mm deep and weighs 1.53 kg. A mounting kit is included, so confirm the intended installation and accessory completeness with the order.
No, CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK uses an external AC adapter rather than redundant internal power supplies. The adapter accepts 100-240V AC, and worst-case consumption reaches 147.48W including PoE at 110V AC. The supplied adapter belongs with the unit; accessory replacements are not separately orderable spares.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK has a 120W PoE budget, while CBS250-8P-E-2G-UK has 60W. Both are discontinued eight-port PoE+ models, so this comparison concerns installed-base requirements rather than a current-product recommendation. The higher-budget version fits larger allocated endpoint loads; the lower-budget version fits smaller loads.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK provides eight Gigabit PoE+ access ports, whereas CBS250-16P-2G-UK provides 16. Both belong to the discontinued Business 250 series. The eight-port unit suits smaller endpoint counts; the 16-port unit suits existing installations that need more access connections within that series.
CBS250-8FP-E-2G-UK uses an external AC adapter, whereas C1200-8FP-2G uses an internal AC power supply. C1200-8FP-2G is the current replacement for the discontinued Business 250 unit. The external-adapter model matches an existing installation; the successor suits purchases requiring the current model with integrated AC power.
