C1000-16T-2G-L Description
C1000-16T-2G-L is a Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series fixed managed Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 switch with 16 10/100/1000 RJ45 data ports and 2 1G SFP uplinks.
This SKU fits small branch and out-of-wiring-closet access designs where the bill of materials needs a fanless 16-port data switch instead of a PoE access model. The main order differences are power and endpoint support: C1000-16T-E-2G-L uses an external power supply, while C1000-16P-2G-L changes the port set to PoE+ with a 120W PoE budget.
Procurement review should confirm the non-PoE data-port requirement, the 2 SFP uplink plan, AC input range, rack or DIN mounting approach, and Cisco-supported SFP choices before price, availability, warranty support, and shipping details are finalized.

Product Performance
Key Features
The switch provides 16 10/100/1000 RJ45 data ports, so the order should be used where powered endpoints are handled elsewhere or PoE is not part of the access requirement.
The 2 x 1G SFP uplink design keeps the model aligned with compact fiber-uplink access deployments rather than 4-uplink or 10G SFP+ Catalyst 1000 variants.
Cisco marks the 16-port Catalyst 1000 models as fanless, which matters for desks, small cabinets, classrooms, and other locations outside a typical wiring closet.
C1000-16T-2G-L uses the standard internal AC power design, while the C1000-16T-E-2G-L alternative is the external-power-supply version.
Catalyst 1000 switches operate on Cisco IOS Software and support management through CLI and an on-box web UI, which keeps the operating model familiar for Cisco access networks.
Cisco lists console cable, power cable clip, and compact rack-mount accessories for Catalyst 1000 models, while SFP selection should be checked against Cisco optics compatibility data.
Application Scenarios
C1000-16T-2G-L fits a small branch access layer that needs 16 Gigabit copper data ports and 2 fiber uplinks without adding PoE power budget to the bill of materials.
The fanless 16-port profile supports deployments on a desk, shelf, compact rack, or DIN rail location where acoustic output and space are part of the hardware decision.
The SKU is appropriate when the installed standard is the internally powered 16-port data model and the order should not be substituted with the external-power C1000-16T-E-2G-L.

16x 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, 2x 1G SFP uplinks |
16x 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports, 2x 1G SFP uplinks with external PS |

- In a C1000-16T-2G-L vs C1000-16T-E-2G-L comparison, the port layout and 2 x 1G SFP uplinks match; the difference is the internal AC power design on C1000-16T-2G-L versus the external power supply on the E model.
- The C1000-16T-2G-L vs C1000-16P-2G-L difference is the endpoint power profile, because the current SKU is a data model and the 16P model adds PoE+ with a 120W PoE budget.
- For C1000-16T-2G-L vs C1000-16FP-2G-L, the comparison centers on data-only access versus the higher 240W PoE+ budget listed for the 16FP model.
- The which model to choose check should start with data-only versus PoE+ endpoints, then confirm whether the site requires internal AC power or the external-power variant.
Selection Guide
1. Choose it for 16-port non-PoE access
Select C1000-16T-2G-L when the access design needs 16 Gigabit RJ45 data ports and 2 SFP uplinks without paying for PoE power that endpoints will not use.
2. Keep the E model for external power
Use C1000-16T-E-2G-L only when the same 16-port data and 2 SFP layout must be ordered with an external power supply.
3. Move to 16P when PoE+ is required
Specify C1000-16P-2G-L when the endpoint plan needs 16 PoE+ copper ports and the Cisco-listed 120W PoE budget.
4. Move to 16FP for the larger PoE budget
Specify C1000-16FP-2G-L when the same 16-port PoE+ access role needs the larger Cisco-listed 240W PoE budget.

Pre-sales conversations felt like talking to someone who knew the product.
Came with all the original tags and identifiers. Everything we’d expect from a genuine product.
Shipment arrived early, and everything was intact. Shipping took a couple extra days, but product itself is perfect.
Glad to see you guys stock these. Buying a beer for the sales rep.
… (Review: 5 Stars. Works perfectly in the test chamber.)
