Cisco Catalyst C1200-16P-2G PoE Managed Switch
Overview
The Cisco Catalyst C1200-16P-2G expands the Catalyst 1200 Series portfolio with higher port density and integrated PoE+ power for SMB and branch networks. Designed for unified data and power delivery, it combines 16 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports, 2 Gigabit SFP uplinks, and full Layer 3 intelligence, delivering enterprise-grade reliability, simple management, and silent operation in a compact 1U chassis.
Featuring 16 × 1 GbE PoE+ downlinks and 2 × 1 GbE SFP uplinks, the C1200-16P-2G provides 36 Gbps switching capacity and 26.78 Mpps forwarding rate. With IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ support and a 120 W total PoE budget, it powers wireless APs, IP phones, and security cameras directly through Ethernet cabling.
It supports VLAN, ACL, QoS, and IPv4/IPv6 static routing, combining Layer 2/3 functionality with Cisco’s intuitive management via the Business Dashboard, Mobile App, or on-device Web UI.
The C1200-16P-2G delivers gigabit performance, advanced power delivery, and quiet, fanless operation. With its internal AC power supply and 120 W PoE+ capacity, it is ideal for small and medium-sized offices that need centralized power distribution and reliable network connectivity in one cost-effective device.
