Cisco Catalyst 1300 C1300-48T-4G - Managed 48-port Gigabit Ethernet Switch, White

The Cisco Catalyst 1300 C1300-48T-4G is a 48-port managed L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet switch with four 1G SFP uplink slots. It provides 48 RJ-45 copper ports for connecting workstations, servers, and other wired network endpoints. The four SFP slots allow for direct fiber connections to core routing infrastructure. The device has a total switching capacity of 104 Gbit/s and a forwarding rate of 77.38 Mpps, providing enough bandwidth to handle traffic across all interfaces simultaneously without bottlenecks.

Administrators can configure this non-PoE model via a web-based interface or a command-line environment. The system supports physical stacking for up to eight units, allowing management of multiple switches from a single IP address. Traffic can be managed using up to 4,094 active VLANs and standard Quality of Service (QoS) protocols. Network stability is supported by Access Control Lists (ACL), ARP inspection, and the Spanning Tree Protocol. The rack-mountable metal chassis uses a single internal fan, operating at a noise level of 29.7 dB with a maximum power draw of 38.8 W.

• Layer 3 functionality includes static routing to manage inter-subnet traffic directly on the switch.
• The hardware features a 1400 MHz processor, 1024 MB of memory, and a 1.5 MB packet buffer.
• The MAC address table supports up to 16,000 entries, and the switch supports 9000-byte jumbo frames for large data transfers.
• Administrative access is secured via HTTPS, SSH, and SSL/TLS encryption.
• The mean time between failures (MTBF) is 1,473,382 hours.
