CBS250-8T-D-EU is a fanless, smart-managed Layer 2+ desktop switch with eight 10/100/1000 copper ports for small-business Ethernet access. The fixed port layout has no dedicated uplinks, fiber cages, or removable uplink bay, so an upstream connection uses one of the copper interfaces. Cisco Business 250 connects local computers, printers, servers, and other independently powered Ethernet devices; this model does not deliver power to endpoints. The discontinued CBS250-8PP-D-EU differs by providing PoE+ output with a shared 45W budget. Port-based and tagged VLANs separate workgroups, while voice VLAN handling accommodates phone traffic alongside data. This Gigabit Ethernet desktop switch provides configurable access switching without a full-width rack chassis.

16 Gbps switching capacity supports nonblocking traffic across the fixed interfaces. 11.9 Mpps forwarding processes 64-byte packets at wire speed. Static routing accommodates 32 IPv4 routes and 16 IP interfaces, allowing local inter-VLAN communication without dynamic routing. An 8000-entry MAC table supports address learning, while the 1.5 MB packet buffer is shared dynamically across ports. Memory comprises 512 MB DRAM and 256 MB flash, with dual firmware images available for upgrade handling. The Cisco Business management options include browser access, a scriptable CLI, centralized dashboard integration, a mobile app, and SNMP monitoring. CBS250-8T-D-EU lacks an RJ-45 serial console port, so administrative access depends on network connectivity. STP, RSTP, and MSTP control Layer 2 loops, and LACP supports link aggregation. 7.6W worst-case consumption provides the switch load to include in power planning; this is operating demand, not an endpoint power allowance.
ORM Systems offers CBS250-8T-D-EU new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with every port linked at rated speed, PoE startup verified on the PD port, firmware verified, and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity, destination, and required power accessories on the PO. ORM warranties provide up to a 3-year extended term for new units or up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco's separate limited lifetime hardware warranty ends no later than October 31, 2029. Enterprise and volume orders support PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement.

When an existing equipment standard names SG250-08-K9-EU, this discontinued model is its designated replacement. Treat the hardware change as a configuration migration rather than assuming saved settings transfer unchanged. Review VLAN assignments, management addressing, credentials, and configuration compatibility before specifying the replacement on the purchase order.
When several small sites need the same configuration baseline, Cisco Business Dashboard can use the embedded probe without a separate probe appliance or virtual machine. Text-editable configuration files can be transferred between switches. Specify the management workflow, credential handling, and approved configuration file before the purchase order.
When a staging bench needs packet capture before equipment handover, port mirroring can send traffic from four source ports to one destination port. VLAN mirroring is also available. Define the capture connection and required source interfaces, then include the necessary test cabling in the staging purchase order.
Endpoint power from Ethernet ports
The Ethernet ports do not supply PoE or PoE+ power. Phones, cameras, and access points require independent power sources or separate PoE equipment.
Direct fiber uplinks to distribution
The chassis has no SFP cages or removable uplink bay. C1200-8T-E-2G provides two Gigabit copper/SFP combo ports while retaining eight copper access ports.
Local serial console access
No RJ-45 console port is fitted. Initial access and recovery procedures must account for network-based management rather than a local serial console connection.
Ongoing software vulnerability fixes
Vulnerability support ended October 29, 2025, despite later hardware support availability. Specify the current replacement, C1200-8T-D, rather than standardizing new deployments on this discontinued model.

CBS250-8T-D-EU identifies a Cisco Business 250 desktop switch: CBS250 is the series, 8T represents eight 10/100/1000 copper ports without PoE output, D denotes Desktop, and EU selects the country/region version. The EU suffix covers the European Economic Area and several additional markets; the hardware uses an external power adapter.
CBS250-8T-D-EU supports a web UI over HTTP/HTTPS, CLI over SSH or Telnet, Cisco Business Dashboard, the Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. Cisco Network Plug and Play provides provisioning. The compact model has no RJ-45 serial console port, so local management requires network connectivity.
Yes, CBS250-8T-D-EU can receive 802.3af PoE on port 1 or use its external AC adapter. PoE input powers the switch itself; it does not create a power budget for connected endpoints. Include a compatible upstream PoE source when specifying an adapter-free installation.
CBS250-8T-D-EU supports static routing with 32 IPv4 routes and 16 IP interfaces. Interfaces can be assigned to physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLANs, or loopbacks. The switch provides Layer 2+ functionality with static routing; size the route list and interface plan before committing to the hardware.
CBS250-8T-D-EU is discontinued: end of sale was October 29, 2024, and the current replacement is C1200-8T-D. Software maintenance and vulnerability support ended October 29, 2025. The last date of Cisco hardware support is October 31, 2029; that later date does not extend software security maintenance.
ORM Systems offers CBS250-8T-D-EU new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's separate limited lifetime hardware warranty has return-to-factory replacement and ends no later than October 31, 2029.
CBS250-8T-D-EU replaced SG250-08-K9-EU, whose end-of-sale date was July 30, 2022. That migration relationship supports installed-base identification, but CBS250-8T-D-EU is now discontinued as well. For a new purchasing standard rather than a historical replacement match, the current forward replacement is C1200-8T-D.
CBS250-8PP-D-EU provides eight PoE+ output ports and a shared 45W budget, while CBS250-8T-D-EU supplies no endpoint power. Both models are discontinued. The T model serves independently powered devices; the PP model addresses installed PoE requirements, but has no current direct successor.
CBS250-16T-2G-EU uses an internal AC supply, whereas CBS250-8T-D-EU uses an external adapter or PoE input. The internal-supply model has 16 access ports rather than eight. Both are discontinued: the compact model addresses desktop replacements; buyers needing the larger internal-supply configuration should use its current successor, C1200-16T-2G.
C1200-8T-D is the current replacement for CBS250-8T-D-EU, which reached end of sale on October 29, 2024. The successor retains an eight-port Gigabit desktop configuration with external power and PoE input. Existing equipment-standard replacements identify the discontinued model; new purchasing standards should specify the current successor.
No, CBS250-8T-D-EU has no SFP or SFP+ cages and no removable uplink bay. Upstream connectivity uses an ordinary Gigabit copper port. Optical transceivers cannot be added to this chassis; buyers requiring fiber should specify the current C1200-8T-E-2G, which has two Gigabit copper/SFP combo ports.
CBS250-8T-D-EU is a desktop switch measuring 160 mm wide, 128 mm deep, and 30 mm high, with a weight of 0.54 kg. The chassis is narrower than a full-width rack switch. Specify a desktop location rather than assuming direct rack installation.
Cisco Business 250 supports 255 active VLANs, port-based and tagged VLAN membership, a management VLAN, and a guest VLAN. Voice VLAN handling assigns phone traffic to a voice-specific VLAN with appropriate QoS treatment. Define endpoint membership and upstream tagging before applying a shared configuration template.
