SF300-48P is a managed Layer 2+ access switch with 48 10/100 Mbps PoE ports for small-business endpoint networks. Fixed Gigabit uplinks comprise two dedicated RJ-45 connections and two combo RJ-45/SFP positions, providing copper or fiber connectivity without a removable uplink card. The full-width 1U chassis belongs to the Cisco 300 Series and connects IP phones, wireless access points and other endpoints within its Fast Ethernet and PoE limits. The discontinued SF300-48 differs by omitting endpoint PoE, making power delivery the distinguishing requirement for like-for-like replacement selection. This Fast Ethernet PoE managed switch keeps endpoint connections separate from its higher-speed uplinks.

17.6 Gbps switching capacity sets the aggregate throughput limit. 13.1 Mpps forwarding at 64-byte packets defines packet-handling performance. 375W of shared PoE output requires allocation across the powered endpoints rather than an assumption that every port can supply its maximum demand simultaneously. Static IPv4 routing supports communication between VLANs using administrator-defined routes. SF300-48P carries 128 MB of CPU memory and 16 MB of flash, while its MAC table accommodates 16384 addresses. Browser administration uses HTTP/HTTPS, and Textview provides full and menu-based command-line interfaces. Dual software images support firmware maintenance. Three speed-controlled fans cool the chassis within a 0°C to 40°C operating range, while 465W maximum consumption at 110V establishes the whole-switch load for upstream power planning. The published 182540 Hours MTBF is a reliability measure, not a guaranteed operating lifespan. Compliance includes UL 60950, CSA 22.2, CE and FCC Part 15 Class A.
ORM Systems supplies SF300-48P new sealed or certified refurbished, with refurbished units inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, rated-speed links on every port, PoE output under load on every powered port and optics bay recognition.

In a 150-seat contact center, the SF300-48P-48 delivers power and data over 48 10/100 PoE ports using its 375W budget, ensuring each VoIP handset receives consistent power and QoS-managed traffic. Dual 10/100/1000 ports and two combo mini-GBIC uplinks enable resilient aggregation for voice traffic, simplifying management and maintaining uninterrupted customer service.
A boutique hotel deploys 40 indoor and outdoor wireless APs on the SF300-48P-48’s 48 10/100 PoE ports powered by a 375W budget, while two 10/100/1000 ports and combo mini-GBIC fiber uplinks provide robust backhaul. The solution streamlines cabling, delivers seamless guest Wi-Fi, and supports modular expansion with minimal latency and interference.
When several small-business sites need the same port roles, the 300 Series can apply Auto Smartports based on devices discovered through CDP or LLDP-MED. Prepare a device-role inventory rather than assuming one profile fits every endpoint. Specify the required security and QoS roles for each site before the purchase order.
Where a replacement unit must be staged before shipment, the 300 Series supports text-editable configuration files and secure SCP file transfer. CLI privilege levels 1, 7 and 15 provide distinct administrative access levels. Specify the approved configuration, credential handover and staging requirements before releasing the purchase order.
Gigabit connections for every endpoint
SF300-48P limits access connections to 100 Mbps. C1300-48P-4G provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports and four 1G SFP uplinks at the end of the migration chain.
PoE+ power for connected endpoints
SF300-48P supports IEEE 802.3af PoE rather than PoE+. A shared power budget does not change the supported power-delivery standard on individual access ports.
Fanless operation in occupied rooms
SF300-48P uses three speed-controlled fans and produces 43.1 dB at 30°C, rising to 54.3 dB at 40°C. A fanless requirement excludes this model.

SF300-48P identifies a Fast Ethernet managed model in the 300 Series: 48 denotes the access-port count and P denotes PoE. The corresponding ordering identifier is SRW248G4P-K9. The model name has no separate uplink-code or network-license suffix. Confirm the regional ordering identifier before preparing a replacement purchase.
The Cisco 300 Series supports HTTP/HTTPS web management, Textview CLI over console or SSH/Telnet, and SNMP. Its legacy management feature set also includes Cisco Small Business FindIT Network and Cisco OnPlus integration. Local configuration and monitoring are separate from those legacy integrations, so an administrator can use the switch's direct management interfaces.
SF300-48P is discontinued: Cisco ended sales on April 27, 2015 and support on April 30, 2020. Cisco service is no longer available for this model. Treat purchases as legacy replacement inventory, and distinguish reseller condition coverage from the manufacturer's ended hardware warranty and support.
ORM Systems offers SF300-48P new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Returns are available for 30 days in every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty and support ended April 30, 2020.
SF300-48P shares a 375W PoE budget across 48 IEEE 802.3af-powered access ports. The P model supports PoE rather than PoE+, so allocation must account for each endpoint's power requirement. Specify the complete endpoint power list before assuming all powered ports can operate at their maximum demand.
SF300-48P provides four Gigabit uplinks: two dedicated copper ports and two combo copper/SFP ports. Each combo position uses either its RJ-45 connection or its SFP cage, not both simultaneously. Fiber links require compatible optics such as MGBSX1 for multimode fiber or MGBLX1 for single-mode fiber.
SF300-48P supports static IPv4 routing between VLANs, placing this configuration in the Layer 2+ category. Static routes require administrator-defined forwarding paths rather than learned dynamic routing advertisements. Specify the routing design and confirm the required operating mode before incorporating the switch into an inter-VLAN routing plan.
No, the SF300-48P 48-port Fast Ethernet PoE switch uses three speed-controlled fans. Acoustic noise is 43.1 dB at 30°C and 54.3 dB at 40°C, so the model does not satisfy a fanless requirement. Account for these noise levels when specifying equipment for occupied rooms or open work areas.
SF300-48P uses an internal AC power supply accepting 100-240V AC. Maximum consumption reaches 465W at 110V with PoE loading, rather than only the power allocated to endpoints. Size upstream AC circuits and backup power for whole-switch draw, and specify the destination power cord when preparing the purchase order.
SF300-48P measures 440 mm wide, 44.45 mm high and 350 mm deep, and weighs 5.87 kg. The chassis occupies 1U rack space but also needs clearance for cables and cooling. Check rack depth, vertical space and mounting support before including the unit in an equipment order.
SF300-48P supplies PoE on its 48 Fast Ethernet access ports, whereas SF300-48 provides 48 non-PoE access ports. Both models are discontinued, making this a legacy replacement comparison. SF300-48P suits powered-endpoint replacement orders; SF300-48 suits existing layouts where connected equipment receives power independently of the access switch.
SF300-48P offers 48 Fast Ethernet access ports, whereas SF300-24P offers 24. Both models are discontinued, so the comparison concerns replacement inventory rather than a current product refresh. Choose SF300-48P for an existing 48-connection layout; SF300-24P fits an existing 24-connection layout without changing the required access-port density.
C1300-48P-4G provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports where SF300-48P provides 48 Fast Ethernet access ports. C1300-48P-4G is the migration endpoint after the discontinued intermediate generations. SF300-48P is a like-for-like legacy replacement; C1300-48P-4G is for purchases requiring Gigabit endpoint connections rather than Fast Ethernet access.
