SG250-26HP is a smart-managed Layer 2+ Gigabit Ethernet switch with 24 PoE+ access ports and two fixed Gigabit copper/SFP combo uplinks. Its 1U rack-mount chassis belongs to the Cisco 250 Series Smart Switches family, serving small-business networks that connect computers, IP phones, wireless access points and surveillance devices. Fixed uplinks provide copper or fiber connectivity without a removable network card. The discontinued SG250-26P increases the available endpoint-power budget to 195W. Auto Smartports applies port roles using connected-device discovery, while voice VLAN support separates telephone traffic from other traffic. The hardware combines powered access connections with configurable switching rather than unmanaged operation; its uplink architecture remains limited to Gigabit Ethernet.

52 Gbps switching capacity provides nonblocking forwarding across the network ports. 38.69 Mpps forwarding performance applies to 64-byte packets. 100W of shared PoE power supplies connected endpoints, with individual ports supporting 30W until the aggregate allocation reaches that budget. Static routing accommodates 32 IPv4 routes without a dynamic routing control plane. SG250-26HP carries 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for software and configuration handling. A 12 Mb packet buffer is dynamically shared across all ports rather than dedicated to individual interfaces. The Cisco 250 Series provides STP/RSTP/MSTP for loop control and LACP for aggregated links. Eight hardware queues support traffic prioritization, while ingress policing and egress shaping control traffic rates. RADIUS authenticates management access, and access control lists support 512 rules for filtering or rate limiting. 135.2W worst-case consumption with PoE included establishes the maximum electrical load to account for when sizing the AC circuit.
ORM Systems offers SG250-26HP new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units, up to 1 year for refurbished units, and 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, PoE output under load on every powered port, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify the condition and regional power cord on the PO; Cisco's limited lifetime hardware warranty is bounded by the October 31, 2026 support deadline, with original 1-year coverage for fans and power supplies. POs are accepted, government customers receive Net-30, and RMA includes advance replacement; regional stock and RMA cover the UK, EU, US and MEA for enterprise and volume orders.

The Cisco SG250-26HP 26-Port Gigabit PoE Smart Switch provides 24 PoE+ gigabit ports with a 370W power budget, advanced VLAN segmentation, Layer 3 static routing and QoS prioritization. Benefit: Simplifies deployment, ensures reliable voice calls and video streams, reduces cabling complexity, and enhances network security.
Scenario: A university library deploys 40 802.11ac Wave 2 access points across multiple floors, demanding consistent power and bandwidth. The Cisco SG250-26HP 26-Port Gigabit PoE Smart Switch supplies up to 370W PoE+ centrally, supports link aggregation for uplinks, and offers intuitive Smart management. Benefit: Delivers stable, high-throughput Wi-Fi at peak traffic, simplifies network oversight, and scales easily to accommodate growing user loads.
Scenario: A retail chain with 15 locations standardizes on IP POS terminals, digital signage and security cameras. Each site uses the Cisco SG250-26HP 26-Port Gigabit PoE Smart Switch and Cisco FindIT Network Manager for centralized monitoring and configuration. Benefit: Reduces on-site maintenance, enforces uniform security and QoS policies via ACLs, optimizes PoE power distribution, and lowers operational costs.
Branches adopting a common configuration can use text-editable configuration files and protected SCP downloads to distribute settings across matching switches. The configuration workflow supports repeatable preparation without manually entering every setting on each unit. Specify the configuration file, management credentials and transfer procedure before issuing the PO.
Small offices bringing separate IP subnets onto one switch can configure 16 IP interfaces across physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLAN interfaces or loopback interfaces. Interface placement is separate from the route requirement. Check the planned interface count and identify each local subnet before specifying the switch on the PO.
Lab teams preparing replacement equipment can retain dual software images and mirror traffic from four source ports to one destination port for analysis. These capabilities support firmware preparation and packet capture before release to an existing installation. Specify the staging image, capture connection and acceptance checks before ordering.
Uplinks faster than Gigabit Ethernet
SG250-26HP has fixed 1G copper/SFP combo uplinks. Its built-in fiber cages do not provide a faster uplink path, and no removable uplink card expands their speed.
Maximum power on every powered port
SG250-26HP shares 100W across 24 powered ports, despite supporting 30W on an individual port. Simultaneous maximum-power operation across every powered connection exceeds that allocation.
Dynamic routing between local networks
SG250-26HP provides static routing with 32 IPv4 routes. Networks requiring route discovery and dynamic convergence need a different routing implementation rather than additional configuration on this switch.

SG250-26HP identifies a Gigabit model in the Cisco 250 Series Smart Switches family; 26 represents 24 access ports plus two Gigabit copper/SFP combo ports, and HP selects the PoE+ configuration with a 100W budget. The supplied model name contains no separate uplink-code segment or network-license-tier suffix.
SG250-26HP supports an HTTP/HTTPS web UI, Textview CLI over SSH or Telnet, SNMP versions 1, 2c and 3, and Smart Network Application. Cisco FindIT Network Manager, the embedded FindIT Network Probe and Cisco Active Advisor provide additional management paths; FindIT Network Discovery Utility handles discovery and inventory.
SG250-26HP reached end of sale on October 30, 2021, and Cisco support ends on October 31, 2026. Software maintenance ended on October 30, 2022. Existing inventory remains discontinued hardware, so an order for this model should not be treated as a purchase of a current Cisco product.
SG250-26HP is offered new sealed or certified refurbished: new units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty; refurbished units carry up to 1 year. Both receive 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's limited lifetime hardware warranty is bounded by October 31, 2026; fans and power supplies originally carry a 1-year warranty.
SG250-26HP provides a shared 100W PoE budget across 24 PoE+ access ports, with 30W available to an individual port until the total budget is reached. Power is allocated across connected devices rather than reserved at maximum output for every port. Size the order against the combined endpoint power requirement.
The SG250-26HP configuration uses two fixed 1G copper/SFP combo uplinks, with each copper connection sharing its logical port with the corresponding SFP connection. MGBSX1 supports multimode fiber over 500 m, and MGBLX1 supports single-mode fiber over 10 km. Order the required transceivers separately and match them to the installed fiber.
Yes, SG250-26HP supports static routing between IP networks, with 32 IPv4 static routes and 16 IP interfaces. Interfaces can be configured on physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLAN interfaces or loopback interfaces. Its Layer 2+ configuration does not provide a dynamic routing control plane, so route entries require explicit configuration.
No, the SG250-26HP configuration uses a single internal AC power supply rather than redundant internal power modules. Input is 100-240V AC at 50-60 Hz. Maximum consumption including PoE is 135.2W, so electrical planning should account for the complete switch load rather than only the endpoint power budget.
SG250-26HP provides a 100W PoE budget, while SG250-26P provides 195W; both have 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and two Gigabit combo uplinks. Both models are discontinued. For existing installations, SG250-26HP suits the lower aggregate endpoint allocation, while SG250-26P accommodates a larger combined powered-device load.
SG250-26HP uses an internal AC power supply, while SG250-10P uses an external AC adapter or power received through its PoE-capable uplinks. Both models are discontinued. Existing installations using an internal mains connection match SG250-26HP; installations requiring external-adapter or upstream-PoE power match the smaller SG250-10P.
SG250-26HP has 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, while SG250-50HP has 48; each also has two Gigabit copper/SFP combo uplinks. Both are discontinued models. For existing installations, SG250-26HP matches a smaller access-port requirement, while SG250-50HP matches an order requiring twice the number of powered access connections.
SG250-26HP's North American replacement was CBS250-24PP-4G-NA, but that model also reached end of sale on October 29, 2024, and has no current migration replacement. The discontinued replacement provides 24 Gigabit access ports and four 1G SFP uplinks; neither model represents a current Cisco ordering path.
