CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU is a fanless, smart managed Layer 2+ desktop switch with eight Gigabit PoE+ access ports and two fixed Gigabit copper/SFP combo uplinks. Each combo uplink uses either its copper connection or its SFP slot, with only one connection active at a time. The Cisco Business 250 Series Smart Switches serve small-business networks connecting computers, IP phones, cameras, and wireless access points. An external AC adapter powers this model; upstream PoE cannot power the switch itself. The discontinued CBS250-8FP-E-2G-EU sibling provides a larger 120W endpoint power allocation. The compact chassis includes a mounting kit, while its fixed uplink architecture accepts compatible Gigabit transceivers rather than removable uplink expansion cards.

20 Gbps switching capacity provides nonblocking forwarding across the available interfaces, while 14.88 Mpps forwarding handles minimum-size 64-byte packets. 60W of shared PoE power must accommodate the combined endpoint allocation rather than an independent maximum allocation on every powered port. Static routing supports 32 IPv4 routes for manually configured paths between networks; dynamically learned routing is not available. CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU combines 512 MB of DRAM, 256 MB of flash, and a dynamically shared 1.5 MB packet buffer for configuration, software storage, and packet handling. Business 250 switching supports 255 simultaneously active VLANs for traffic separation. STP, RSTP, and MSTP provide spanning-tree operation, while LACP supports four aggregation groups. Administrators can use browser configuration, a scriptable CLI, or SNMP monitoring, with SNMP v3 available for authenticated management. The 1706649-hour MTBF rating applies at 25°C and is separate from warranty coverage or a guaranteed operating life.
ORM supplies CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with PoE output verified under load on every powered port, supplied-adapter output checked, firmware verified, and configuration wiped to factory default. New units carry up to 3-year extended warranty coverage and certified refurbished units up to 1 year; every condition includes 30-day returns, terms apply, while Cisco's separate Limited Lifetime warranty is bounded by service ending October 31, 2029. Specify condition, quantity, regional power requirements, and optics on the purchase order; PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, UK/EU/US/MEA stock and RMA coverage, and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume purchasing.

When replacing local adapters for phones, cameras, or wireless access points, size each device against the 30W per-port ceiling and account for simultaneous startup demand. Specify the endpoint power requirements and the intended powered-port allocation before issuing the purchase order.
When a small site needs communication between separate workgroups, Layer 3 interfaces can reside on physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLANs, or loopbacks. The switch supports 16 IP interfaces. Check the planned interface inventory and routing requirements before specifying the configuration on the purchase order.
When staging an installation that needs packet inspection, port mirroring can send traffic from four source ports to one destination port. Reserve that destination connection for the analyzer rather than an endpoint. Specify the monitoring-port allocation and staging configuration before ordering units for the test bench.
10G uplinks to distribution
The fixed combo uplinks are limited to 1G. C1200-24P-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but also increases access-port density to 24 ports.
More than 30W per endpoint
Each powered access port supplies a maximum of 30W, and the aggregate power allocation is shared rather than dedicated independently to each connected endpoint.
Continuing Cisco security fixes
Cisco vulnerability and security support ended October 29, 2025. C1200-8P-E-2G is the current replacement for the eight-port Gigabit PoE+ configuration with two combo uplinks.

CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU identifies a Business 250 switch: 8P denotes eight Gigabit PoE+ access ports, E denotes external power, and 2G denotes two Gigabit combo uplinks. EU is the regional ordering suffix covering the European Economic Area and other designated markets, not a software-license tier.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU supports a web UI over HTTP or HTTPS, CLI access through the console or SSH/Telnet, Cisco Business Dashboard, the Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP. The CLI supports scripting and menu-based operation, while an embedded Dashboard probe avoids a separate local probe appliance.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU reached end of sale on October 29, 2024, and Cisco support ends October 31, 2029. Software maintenance and vulnerability/security support ended October 29, 2025. Hardware support entitlement does not extend those software milestones, so continued access to new security fixes requires migration.
ORM offers CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended coverage for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's Limited Lifetime hardware warranty is separate, and Cisco service ends October 31, 2029.
No license or subscription is required for Cisco Business 250 switches. The hardware purchase does not need a separate network-license tier or a minimum switch subscription term for operation. The same absence of a switch subscription requirement applies when choosing new sealed or certified refurbished hardware.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU replaces the discontinued SG250-10P-K9-EU, which reached end of sale on October 30, 2021. That older model's Cisco support ends October 31, 2026. The CBS250 model is also discontinued, with C1200-8P-E-2G now providing the current migration path rather than another legacy purchasing target.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU provides a shared 60W PoE budget across eight powered access ports, with a maximum of 30W on an individual port. PoE and PoE+ endpoints are supported within that aggregate allocation. Eight powered ports do not mean eight simultaneous maximum-power connections.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU has two fixed 1G combo uplinks, each sharing a copper port with an SFP slot. Compatible Gigabit optics include MGBSX1 for multimode fiber and MGBLX1 for single-mode fiber. Select the optic for the fiber type and distance; copper and SFP connections cannot operate simultaneously within one combo port.
Yes, CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU supports static IPv4 routing between networks, with 32 static routes and 16 IP interfaces. Layer 3 interfaces can use physical ports, VLANs, link aggregation groups, or loopbacks. The routing capability is static rather than dynamically learned, so route changes require configuration rather than automatic protocol exchange.
The Cisco Business 250 eight-port PoE+ switch is a desktop chassis measuring 268 mm wide, 185 mm deep, and 44 mm high, with a weight of 1.53 kg. A mounting kit is included, but the chassis is narrower than a full-width 19-inch switch.
The Cisco Business 250 eight-port PoE+ switch uses an external AC adapter accepting 100-240V and operates from -5°C to 50°C. Allow for 80.86W maximum power consumption when sizing the AC feed. Safety and EMC approvals include UL 62368, CSA 22.2, CE, and FCC Part 15 Class A.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU has a 60W PoE budget, whereas CBS250-8FP-E-2G-EU has a 120W budget. Both models are discontinued. The 60W model matches lower endpoint allocations in existing installations; the 120W model accommodates larger allocations, but neither budget supports eight simultaneous 30W endpoint connections.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU uses an external AC adapter, whereas CBS250-16P-2G-EU uses an internal AC power supply. Both Business 250 models are discontinued. The adapter-fed model matches existing installations standardized on external power; the internal-supply variant matches purchasing requirements for AC power within the chassis rather than a separate adapter.
C1200-8P-E-2G remains available to order, whereas CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU reached end of sale on October 29, 2024. C1200-8P-E-2G is the current replacement for eight-port Gigabit PoE+ switching with two Gigabit combo uplinks. Choose the CBS250 model for matching an existing installation; specify the replacement for a current-generation rollout.
