SG300-28 is a fanless, managed Layer 2+ Gigabit switch with 24 regular copper access ports and four fixed Gigabit uplinks: two copper ports plus two shared RJ-45/SFP combo ports. Each combo connection uses either its copper interface or its SFP cage, not both simultaneously. The rack-mount chassis belongs to the Cisco Small Business 300 family and connects computers, printers, servers, and other independently powered endpoints; the switch does not provide PoE. The discontinued SG300-28P adds endpoint power on 24 ports. This 28-port Gigabit managed switch provides configurable traffic segmentation and prioritization rather than unmanaged operation. Its connection layout accommodates copper runs within an office and copper or fiber connections toward the upstream network without requiring a removable uplink card.
SG300-28 price for new stock is $414.75, a 50% saving from the Cisco list price of $829.50. SG300-28 refurb price is $130.20. SG300-28 is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

56 Gbps switching capacity supports wire-speed, nonblocking forwarding across the available Ethernet connections. 41.67 Mpps forwarding performance applies to 64-byte packets, keeping packet-rate planning separate from bandwidth. Static IPv4 routing supports 32 routes and 32 IP interfaces for communication between local subnets; routes require explicit configuration rather than dynamic exchange. STP/RSTP/MSTP provide Layer 2 loop prevention, while LACP groups Ethernet links for aggregation. SG300-28 combines 128 MB of memory with 16 MB of flash, and the MAC table supports 16000 entries for learned endpoints. Administration is available through an HTTP/HTTPS web interface, the serial console, CLI access over SSH or Telnet, and SNMP. Four hardware queues provide traffic-priority handling through strict-priority and weighted round-robin scheduling. 20.6W maximum power consumption provides the per-unit figure for planning AC power allocation. UL 60950, CSA 22.2, CE marking, and FCC Part 15 Class A cover safety and regulatory qualifications.

In a distributed professional services firm, the SG300-28-26 delivers 26 copper Gigabit ports for workstations, two combo mini-GBIC uplinks to the headquarters data center, and hardware-based VLANs to isolate HR, finance and guest traffic. IT teams gain resilient, low-latency connectivity over fiber, simplified network segmentation and single-pane management, resulting in 99.99% uptime and streamlined compliance.
At a manufacturing plant deploying 100+ HD cameras, the SG300-28-26 aggregates each camera’s 10/100/1000 connection on its 26 RJ45 ports, then trunk-aggregates video streams over dual mini-GBIC fiber links to the NVR cluster. The result is non-blocking throughput, deterministic QoS for video, and long-reach resilience—enabling real-time monitoring and rapid forensic retrieval without packet loss.
A regional hotel chain uses the SG300-28-26 to connect 200 VoIP phones and 50 Wi-Fi APs on its copper ports, while leveraging combo mini-GBIC uplinks for redundant links to the core. Advanced QoS policies guarantee crystal-clear voice and prioritized guest Wi-Fi, reducing dropped calls by 95% and improving guest satisfaction scores—backed by centralized switch management and audit-ready security.
For an inter-switch connection across existing multimode fiber, MGBSX1 provides Gigabit connectivity with a 300 m maximum distance. The fiber plant and remote transceiver must match the selected optic; include the appropriate quantity of MGBSX1 transceivers and confirm the installed link distance before placing the order.
When staging an office installation in an existing rack, the original package includes mounting hardware and a serial cable for physical installation and console access. Those items belong on the receiving checklist, particularly when selecting refurbished equipment; confirm the supplied mounting hardware and serial cable before approving the purchase order.
When several sites need the same starting configuration, text-editable configuration files can be prepared centrally and downloaded to individual units. The configuration-file workflow avoids entering every setting separately through the browser interface; specify the configuration handoff, site-specific changes, and responsibility for loading and saving the final configuration before the PO.
Power delivery to connected endpoints
SG300-28 does not provide PoE on any port. Phones, access points, or other endpoints that depend on Ethernet power require an independent power arrangement.
10G uplinks to distribution
The fixed uplinks operate at 1G. SG300-28 has no 10G SFP+ ports or removable uplink card that can increase the supported uplink speed.
Active manufacturer support for production
Cisco service ended on May 31, 2023. C1300-24T-4G is the current migration target, retaining 24 Gigabit access ports while providing four dedicated 1G SFP uplinks.

SG300-28 identifies a Gigabit Ethernet model in the Cisco Small Business 300 managed-switch family, with 28 total logical Ethernet connections. The configuration combines 24 regular ports, two copper uplinks, and two combo uplinks. SRW2024-K9-NA is an alternate ordering PID for this configuration, rather than a software license tier.
SG300-28 is managed through an HTTP/HTTPS web interface, a serial console, CLI access over SSH or Telnet, and SNMP. Browser management provides device configuration, while command-line and SNMP access support administration and monitoring. The required management services and access controls are selected during configuration.
SG300-28 is discontinued: end of sale was May 10, 2018, and Cisco support ended May 31, 2023. New sealed stock does not restart those manufacturer milestones. The current migration target is C1300-24T-4G rather than the discontinued intermediate models SG350-28-K9-NA or CBS350-24T-4G-NA.
ORM Systems offers SG300-28 new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Returns are available for 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty is no longer active because Cisco service ended May 31, 2023.
SG300-28 has four fixed Gigabit uplink connections: two dedicated copper ports and two RJ-45/SFP combo ports. Each combo port activates either copper or fiber, so installing an SFP does not create an additional connection. The uplinks remain limited to Gigabit speed rather than supporting 10G operation.
Yes, SG300-28 supports static IPv4 routing between VLANs, with 32 static routes and 32 IP interfaces. Routes require manual configuration rather than automatic learning through a dynamic routing protocol. This supports local subnet connectivity, but the routing design must remain within those limits and account for configuration changes.
Yes, the 28-port Gigabit managed switch uses a full-width rack-mount chassis measuring 440 mm wide, 44.45 mm high, and 257 mm deep. Its weight is 3.28 kg. The original package includes mounting hardware; the mounting hardware supplied with the selected condition should be confirmed before installation.
No, SG300-28 uses an internal universal AC power supply accepting 100-240V AC at 47-63 Hz. An external desktop power adapter is not required for this model. The regional power cord and its inclusion with the chosen condition should be confirmed when preparing the purchase order.
SG300-28P provides PoE on 24 ports, whereas SG300-28 does not provide endpoint power. Both models belong to the discontinued Small Business 300 family. SG300-28 suits matching installations with independently powered endpoints; SG300-28P corresponds to legacy installations that also require power delivery, subject to its discontinued status.
SG300-52 provides 52 logical Gigabit connections, compared with 28 on SG300-28. Both are discontinued Small Business 300 models, so the distinction is useful when matching existing hardware rather than selecting a current-generation replacement. SG300-28 fits the lower connection count; SG300-52 addresses denser legacy installations.
C1300-24T-4G provides four dedicated 1G SFP uplinks, while SG300-28 combines two copper uplinks with two shared RJ-45/SFP combo uplinks. C1300-24T-4G is the current migration target; SG300-28 is discontinued. The former suits a refresh requiring separate fiber uplinks, while the latter matches existing legacy installations.
SG300-28 replaced the discontinued SRW2024-CN 24-port Gigabit WebView switch through the SRW2024-K9-CN ordering form. The replacement configuration provides 28 logical Gigabit connections, including two shared combo ports. SRW2024-CN and SRW2024-K9-CN identify different hardware generations, not interchangeable regional names for the same switch.
