Cisco Catalyst C1000-16FP-2G-L - 16-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Managed Switch, 240W PoE Budget, 2 SFP Uplinks - Refresh

The Cisco Catalyst C1000-16FP-2G-L is a fixed managed Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ switch purpose-built for small businesses, branch offices, retail locations, and out-of-the-wiring-closet IoT deployments. It delivers 16 × 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports with a full 240W PoE budget plus 2 × 1G SFP uplinks in a fanless 1RU rack-mountable chassis running Cisco IOS Software. Switching capacity reaches 36 Gbps with a forwarding rate of 26.78 Mpps, and onboard management is available via CLI, on-box web UI, SNMP v3, and sFlow — with an optional external Bluetooth dongle (sold separately) supported through the USB-A port for over-the-air administration.

Cisco Catalyst C1000-16FP-2G-L - Key Features & Benefits

• 16 Gigabit PoE+ Ports — 240W Total Budget: 16 × 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports support both IEEE 802.3af (up to 15.4W/port) and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30W/port) with a full 240W PoE budget — enough to power IP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras across the port count
• 2 × 1G SFP Uplinks for Fiber or Copper Aggregation: Two dedicated 1 Gigabit SFP slots accept 1000BASE-X optics for fiber backbone connections or copper SFP modules to the distribution layer
• 36 Gbps Switching at Wire Speed: Wire-speed Layer 2 forwarding at 26.78 Mpps (64-byte L3 packets), with a 16,000-entry MAC address table and support for 256 active VLANs (4,094 VLAN IDs) — sized for small enterprise and branch-office traffic patterns
• Fanless 1RU Chassis for Quiet Deployment: Silent fanless design in a compact 1RU rack-mountable chassis (10.56 × 12.14 × 1.73 in) — suitable for offices, retail spaces, classrooms, and any noise-sensitive location
• Cisco IOS Management with CLI, Web UI, SNMP v3 & sFlow: Run on Cisco IOS Software with CLI, on-box web UI, SNMP v3, and sFlow monitoring. The integrated USB-A port supports an optional external Bluetooth dongle (sold separately) for over-the-air administration. Single IP Management lets you administer up to 8 Catalyst 1000 switches under one IP address (management aggregation only — this is not a data-plane stack)
• Enterprise Security with 802.1X, ACLs & DHCP Snooping: 802.1X authentication, MAC Authentication Bypass, WebAuth with downloadable ACLs, BPDU Guard, DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, SSH v2, and TACACS+/RADIUS support — paired with Spanning Tree Root Guard, IGMP filtering, and Storm Control for stable Layer 2 operation

Cisco Catalyst C1000-16FP-2G-L - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What's the difference between the C1000-16FP-2G-L and the C1000-16P-2G-L?
  Both are 16-port Gigabit PoE+ switches with 2 SFP uplinks, but the PoE budget is different. The C1000-16FP-2G-L provides a 240W "Full PoE" budget, while the C1000-16P-2G-L provides only 120W. If you plan to power high-draw devices like 802.11ac/ax APs or PTZ cameras across many ports, the FP variant is the one to use.
• Does this switch require an external license, cloud subscription, or controller to operate?
  No. The Catalyst 1000 runs Cisco IOS Software with the LAN Base feature set built in — there are no recurring license fees, no cloud account requirement, and no external controller needed. It is a standalone, on-prem managed switch.
• What SFP modules are compatible with the uplink ports?
  The two uplink slots accept 1 Gigabit SFP modules only — standard 1000BASE-X fiber SFPs (SX, LX, BX, ZX, etc.) and 1000BASE-T copper SFPs. The slots do not support SFP+ (10G) modules.
