Cisco Catalyst 1200 C1200-8T-D - 8-Port Gigabit Managed Desktop Switch, White

The Cisco Catalyst 1200 C1200-8T-D 8-Port Gigabit Managed Desktop Switch is an L2/L3 device for segmenting local networks. It has eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports to link computers, network storage, and IP phones. The unit provides a total switching capacity of 16 Gbit/s to handle simultaneous data traffic across all connections. A forwarding rate of 11.9 Mpps maintains steady throughput. Its desktop form factor allows it to sit on a workstation without requiring a rack.

This managed model has a white metal housing and a fanless design for silent operation in shared offices. Administrators configure settings via a web-based interface or a command-line interface (CLI). Layer 3 capabilities include IP routing with up to 32 static routes across 16 IP interfaces, enabling basic traffic direction without an external router. Quality of Service (QoS) and Access Control Lists (ACLs) provide control over data priority and security. Additionally, the switch supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) to supply electricity to compatible endpoint hardware.

• Support for up to 255 active VLANs to separate multi-department traffic and improve network organisation.
• MAC address table capacity of 8000 entries, supported by a 1400 MHz processor and 1024 MB of internal memory.
• Jumbo frame support up to 9000 bytes for efficient large-file transfers across the local area network.
• Secure remote management access utilizing HTTPS, SSH, and SSL/TLS encryption.
• Multicast optimization through IGMP snooping to reduce unnecessary traffic duplication.
