SF250-48HP provides 48 Fast Ethernet PoE+ access ports and four fixed Gigabit uplinks in a rack-mount 1U chassis. Two uplinks offer shared copper/SFP connections, while two are dedicated SFP ports; each combo connection uses either copper or fiber, not both simultaneously. The Cisco 250 Series Smart Switches serve small-business networks connecting computers, IP phones, cameras and wireless access points. Layer 2+ operation combines switching with static routing rather than dynamic routing. The discontinued SF250-48 has the same access-port density without endpoint power. Within the SF250 family, this powered configuration keeps Gigabit connectivity at the uplinks while endpoint connections remain 10/100 Mbps, a distinction to retain when matching replacement hardware to an existing installation.

17.6 Gbps switching capacity accommodates the fixed port configuration without a removable uplink card. 13.1 Mpps forwarding performance applies to 64-byte packets, providing the small-packet figure for traffic sizing. A dynamically shared 24 Mb packet buffer serves the ports rather than assigning that capacity to each interface. SF250-48HP carries 512 MB of memory and 256 MB of flash for its embedded software and configuration. STP/RSTP/MSTP handle loop control, while LACP supports aggregated connections. Port security, RADIUS authentication and access controls support restrictions on endpoint and management access. The internal AC supply accepts 100–240V input; a second internal supply is not an ordering option. 265.2W worst-case consumption with PoE is the maximum figure to use when sizing the AC feed, rather than treating the endpoint power allocation as the complete chassis load.
SF250-48HP is offered new sealed or certified refurbished. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, PoE output under load on every powered port, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to a 1-year warranty on certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. Specify the condition, regional power connection, optics and quantity on the PO; ORM accepts purchase orders, provides Net-30 for government, offers RMA with advance replacement, and supports regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

In a multi–building corporate campus, IT teams use the SF250-48HP-Cisco SF250-48HP 48-Port 10/100 PoE Smart Switch to power and manage 150+ wireless access points over a single management pane. The switch’s 370 W PoE budget and intuitive GUI simplify power allocation, VLAN segmentation and QoS policies, delivering seamless Wi-Fi coverage and centralized network visibility with minimal cabling and configuration overhead.
A mid-size financial firm deploys the SF250-48HP 48-Port 10/100 PoE Smart Switch to support 200+ IP phones across two floors, leveraging automatic PoE negotiation and VLAN isolation for voice traffic. By consolidating power and data on one device, the IT department achieves consistent call quality, rapid troubleshooting via SNMP monitoring, and a 30 % reduction in rack space and power costs compared to separate power injectors.
A large retail chain integrates the Cisco SF250-48HP switch to power and network 60 high-definition PoE cameras per location, utilizing its 48 ports and dual Gigabit SFP uplinks for long-reach fiber connectivity. The smart switch’s per-port power control and PoE scheduling ensure continuous uptime, streamlined firmware updates and real-time traffic prioritization—resulting in improved security monitoring and a 25 % decrease in installation labor.
Replacing an SF200-48P estate begins by checking whether installed units carry SLM248PT-NA or SLM248PT-G5. Both older ordering variants lead to this model, but the purchase still needs a region-specific hardware description. Match the existing endpoint power requirements, uplink media and regional power connection before issuing the replacement PO.
A branch separating workgroups across multiple IP networks must account for the limit of 16 IP interfaces. Physical ports, aggregated links, VLAN interfaces and loopback interfaces can participate in the routing configuration. Count the required interfaces and validate the intended addressing plan before specifying the hardware on the PO.
Preparing hardware before shipment can use the front-panel USB connection to save and restore configuration files, firmware images and system logs. The USB file system must be FAT32. Include the configuration handoff and storage-media format in the staging instructions, then confirm the required quantities and condition before the PO.
Gigabit speed on endpoint connections
SF250-48HP access ports stop at 100 Mbps. C1200-48P-4G provides 48 Gigabit PoE access ports and four dedicated Gigabit SFP uplinks instead of shared copper/fiber uplinks.
10G uplinks to distribution switches
SF250-48HP fixed uplinks stop at 1G and cannot accept an uplink expansion card. C1200-48P-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks with 48 Gigabit PoE access ports.
