Cisco Business 250 Series CBS250-24FP-4X-EU - Managed Smart Switch, Silver

The Cisco Business 250 Series CBS250-24FP-4X-EU Managed Smart Switch (24x Gigabit PoE, 4x 10G SFP+) is an L2/L3 network switch designed for small to mid-sized businesses. It features 24 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and four dedicated 10G SFP+ uplink slots for connections to core switches or storage servers. The switch has a total switching capacity of 128 Gbit/s and a forwarding rate of 95.23 Mpps to handle data traffic across connected endpoints. It is intended for environments requiring a mix of standard endpoint access and high-speed network aggregation.

This rack-mountable unit provides power to connected devices via Power over Ethernet. Administrators can manage the network using a web-based interface, a command-line interface (CLI), or remote cloud management platforms. Traffic can be controlled using Quality of Service (QoS) protocols to prioritize latency-sensitive applications, such as VoIP telephony, and the switch uses IGMP snooping to manage multicast traffic. The 4.6 kg chassis fits into standard equipment racks and has a maximum power consumption of 451.8 W under full load.

• Total PoE budget of 370 W across all PoE+ ports to power devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points.
• Layer 3 static routing supporting up to 32 routes and 16 IP interfaces for local traffic routing.
• Support for up to 255 active VLANs for multi-tenant or departmental network segmentation.
• Access Control List (ACL) capacity of 512 rules for packet filtering and security policy enforcement.
• Integrated 800 MHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, and a 1.5 MB packet buffer to maintain stability during traffic spikes.
• Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 698,220 hours.
