CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU is a fanless, non-PoE Gigabit Ethernet smart switch with eight copper access ports and two fixed copper/SFP combo uplinks. Each combo connection uses either its copper connector or its fiber slot, not both simultaneously. The desktop chassis belongs to the Cisco Business 250 Series and provides Layer 2+ operation, including static routing between workgroups. An external AC adapter powers the hardware; endpoint power must come from another source. The discontinued CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU differs by adding PoE+ for powered endpoints. This eight-port Gigabit smart switch serves small-business networks connecting separately powered computers, printers, and other Ethernet equipment. Its fixed uplink architecture lets buyers select copper or fiber connections without specifying a removable uplink card.

20 Gbps switching capacity provides nonblocking connectivity across the available interfaces, while 14.88 Mpps forwarding supports wire-speed operation with 64-byte packets. Static IPv4 routing supports 32 routes and 16 IP interfaces, setting the scope for inter-VLAN routing rather than dynamic route exchange. CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU carries 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for its operating software and configuration. A dynamically shared 1.5 MB packet buffer serves traffic across the ports rather than reserving a separate fixed allocation for each connection. Browser-based administration, a scriptable CLI, Cisco Business Dashboard, and the Cisco Business mobile app provide different configuration paths. SSH supports secure remote CLI access, and SNMP supports monitoring integrations. STP/RSTP/MSTP and LACP provide loop-control and link-aggregation functions. The RJ-45 console connection supplies a local administration path when remote access is unavailable, while the front USB Type-A connection supports file and image management.
ORM Systems offers CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU in new sealed and certified refurbished condition; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, optics bay recognition, and rated adapter output, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the required condition and complete accessory set on the purchase order. New units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days for every condition, with terms applying. Enterprise and volume orders can use PO acceptance, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US, and MEA regional stock/RMA operations.

Before rolling a common configuration into service, staging teams may need to inspect traffic from several endpoint connections. Port mirroring supports four source ports feeding one destination port. Include a monitoring connection in the staging layout, and specify the intended source ports before the PO.
A branch rollout with access restrictions requires a rule inventory before hardware is purchased. The switch supports 512 access-control rules, including time-based rules and filtering applied to ingress or egress traffic. Count the required policies and their application points, then specify the configuration scope before the PO.
When several small-business sites need a common segmentation plan, the switch supports 255 active VLANs simultaneously. Port-based and tag-based VLAN assignments support different attachment requirements. Build the site VLAN inventory, identify access and tagged connections, and confirm that each proposed configuration fits the active-VLAN limit before ordering.
PoE power for connected endpoints
CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU supplies no endpoint power. C1200-8P-E-2G is the current eight-port PoE migration model for the discontinued powered sibling; size endpoint demand before selecting that alternative.
10G uplinks to upstream equipment
The fixed combo uplinks stop at 1G. C1200-24T-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but also increases the access-port count to 24, changing the required chassis configuration.

CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU identifies a Business 250 smart switch: CBS250 names the family, 8T identifies eight non-PoE Gigabit copper ports, E identifies external power, and 2G identifies two Gigabit copper/SFP combo connections. EU is the regional ordering suffix covering the European Economic Area and other designated markets; no license tier is encoded.
CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU supports a web UI over HTTP/HTTPS, a CLI through its console or SSH/Telnet, Cisco Business Dashboard, the Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP. The CLI supports full and menu-based operation. Browser administration includes basic and advanced modes, while the embedded Dashboard probe supports centralized discovery and administration.
CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU is discontinued, with end of sale on October 29, 2024, and final support scheduled for October 31, 2029. Software maintenance, security fixes, and included phone support ended October 29, 2025. C1200-8T-E-2G is the current migration model for buyers specifying replacement hardware rather than matching an existing installation.
New sealed and certified refurbished CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU are offered with ORM warranties: new units have up to a 3-year extended warranty, and certified refurbished units have up to 1 year. Returns are 30 days for every condition; terms apply. Cisco's limited lifetime hardware warranty is bounded by October 31, 2029.
The Business 250 eight-port switch uses two fixed 1G SFP combo connections, with supported options including MGBSX1 for multimode fiber and MGBLX1 for single-mode fiber. Each fiber slot shares its connection with a copper connector. Specify the optic PID and fiber type together; these connections do not support 10G operation.
Yes, CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU supports static IPv4 routing with 32 routes and 16 IP interfaces. Interfaces can be configured on physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLANs, or loopbacks. This is Layer 2+ functionality rather than a dynamic-routing feature set, so the planned routing configuration must fit those static-route and interface limits.
No, the Business 250 eight-port combo switch has a 268 mm-wide desktop chassis rather than a full-width 19-inch chassis. Its dimensions are 44 mm high and 185 mm deep, and it weighs 1.39 kg. A mounting kit is included, allowing rack mounting without changing the chassis form factor.
CBS250-8P-E-2G-EU adds eight PoE+ ports sharing a 60W budget, while CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU supplies no endpoint power. Both models are discontinued. The powered model addresses endpoints requiring power through Ethernet; the non-PoE model suits separately powered equipment. The 60W allocation does not support maximum PoE+ output on every port simultaneously.
CBS250-16T-2G-EU uses an internal AC power supply, while CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU uses an external AC adapter. Both models are discontinued. The internal-supply model suits buyers standardizing on mains-powered chassis without separate adapters; the external-adapter model suits buyers maintaining the existing eight-port hardware configuration and its associated power arrangement.
C1200-8T-E-2G is the current migration model, while CBS250-8T-E-2G-EU reached end of sale on October 29, 2024. Both configurations provide eight Gigabit access ports, external power, and two Gigabit combo connections. The older model addresses exact-match replacement needs; the Catalyst 1200 model addresses purchases requiring the current successor.
