Cisco Catalyst 1300-24P-4G 24-Port PoE+ Managed Switch

Cisco Catalyst 1300-24P-4G

The Cisco 1300-24P-4G Switch provides high-performance Layer 3 static routing and advanced management features for small to medium-sized business networks. This hardware utilizes an optimized ARM-based CPU architecture to improve packet processing speeds. Additionally, it supports a 195W PoE power budget across 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports. Network engineers can utilize the four dedicated SFP uplinks for high-speed fiber connectivity to core distribution layers. Consequently, this device serves as a scalable foundation for IP telephony, wireless access points, and IoT deployments.
