C1200-24FP-4X Description
The C1200-24FP-4X is a Cisco Catalyst 1200 Series fixed managed PoE+ access switch for branch and campus closets that power endpoints and uplink to an aggregation layer over 10G fiber. The switch has 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports sharing a 375W budget, four 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks, 128 Gbps of switching capacity and one fan. Each port can deliver up to 30.0W, but the budget covers only 12 ports at that level, and Layer 3 is limited to static routing.

Key Features
Every port can supply up to 30.0W, but 375W covers only 12 ports at that level. Lower-draw devices let the budget stretch across all 24 ports, so the combined draw of the endpoints sets the limit.
The 24 RJ-45 ports support 802.3at PoE+, 802.3af and Cisco prestandard PoE, so current endpoints and older Cisco phones can share the switch.
The uplink ports run at 10G or 1G. Supported modules include SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber, SFP-10G-LR for 10 km single-mode and SFP-H10GB-CU direct-attach cables up to 5 m.
The switch forwards 95.23 Mpps and 128 Gbps, which equals full-duplex line rate on all 24 Gigabit ports and the four 10G ports at once.
One fan cools the chassis, which produces 34.8 dBA at 25°C and dissipates 1544.4 BTU/hr at full PoE load, so rack airflow and nearby workspace both matter.
System draw with PoE reaches 452.9W at 110V and 450.4W at 220V, which is the figure to use when sizing the circuit and UPS.
Application Scenarios
In a campus building, the switch powers phones and wireless access points from its PoE+ ports and sends their traffic to the distribution layer over 10G SFP+ links.
A security room can connect PoE+ cameras and badge readers to the switch and move the combined video traffic to a recorder or core over a 10G uplink.
At a large branch, one 24-port switch gives phones, access points and printers Gigabit access, while the SFP+ ports connect to a server room or aggregation switch.

C1200-24FP-4X pairs a 375W PoE+ budget with 4 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks, while C1200-24P-4X keeps the 24 ports and 10G uplinks on a 195W budget; sites whose powered devices total under 195W can drop to C1200-24P-4X, which is also fanless where C1200-24FP-4X has one fan. Aggregation that stays on 1G links can use C1200-24FP-4G, which keeps 375W but has 4 x Gigabit SFP uplinks and 56.0 Gbps of switching instead of 128.0 Gbps. Sites that need 48 powered ports should order C1200-48P-4X, which shares the same 375W budget across twice as many PoE+ ports and switches 176.0 Gbps. Catalyst 1200 has no license tier, so none of these moves involves a software upgrade.
PoE Power Planning
|
Check Item |
Cisco-confirmed Value |
Planning Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Available PoE |
375W power dedicated to PoE |
Total endpoint draw should be checked against the switch budget before the SKU is quoted |
|
PoE port count |
24 PoE+ access ports |
The powered-device plan should fit both the port count and the total PoE budget |
|
Uplink power |
4 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks |
The uplink ports are for SFP+ media and do not add PoE endpoint capacity |
|
Power consumption with PoE |
110V=452.9W; 220V=450.4W |
UPS and circuit planning should use the powered-switch draw rather than only idle consumption |
|
Heat dissipation |
1544.4 BTU/hr |
Rack placement should include thermal planning for the full-PoE configuration |
Ordering Checklist
- Uplink SFP+ modules: Add SFP-10G-SR, SFP-10G-LR, or SFP-H10GB-CU1M, CU3M or CU5M for 10G; the SFP+ ports also run at 1G. The SFP+ uplink cages are empty on the switch and only the listed modules are supported.
- Console cable: Add CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 or CAB-CONSOLE-USB-C. The package lists a switch, power cord, mounting kit and pointer card, with no console cable.

Initially nervous, ultimately impressed. Will buy again.
Their pricing structure is reasonable and easy to understand.
Our IT security policy requires verification for all new hardware — this passed without issues. Invoice formatting was a bit different from what our AP system expects, but workable.
I trust this source. They’ve come through for us before.
Tough gear. Survived the shipping trip without a scratch.
