C1200-24P-4X Description
The C1200-24P-4X is a Cisco Catalyst 1200 Series managed switch for small-office and branch access closets that power phones, cameras and access points over copper. The switch has 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports with a 195W PoE budget, four 10G SFP+ uplinks and 128.0 Gbps of switching capacity, in a fanless chassis with 1.5 MB of packet buffer. Each port supplies up to 30.0W, but the 195W budget is shared across all 24 ports, so only about six devices can draw the full 30.0W at once.

Product Performance
Key Features
All 24 ports draw from one 195W pool, about 8W per port if every port is in use. Any single port can still deliver up to 30.0W until the pool runs out.
The uplinks run at 10G with SFP+ optics or copper cables, or at 1G with Gigabit SFP modules in the same slots.
The 24 Gigabit ports and four 10G uplinks add up to 64 Gbps in each direction, which equals the 128.0 Gbps switching capacity, so the switch forwards at wire speed at 95.23 Mpps.
The chassis has no fan, even though full PoE load draws up to 240.4W and gives off 819.7 BTU/hr of heat. Rated operating temperature runs from -5 to 50 C.
The 445 x 299 x 44 mm chassis is 59 mm deeper than the data-only 24-port models and 46 mm shallower than the 375W C1200-24FP-4X, and it ships with 19-inch brackets.
The switch routes IPv4 and IPv6 at wire speed with up to 32 static routes and 16 IP interfaces, enough for inter-VLAN routing at the edge. Dynamic routing protocols are not listed.
Application Scenarios
In a branch office rack, the switch powers IP phones and wireless access points from its PoE+ ports and passes their traffic to a 10G aggregation switch over the SFP+ uplinks.
A store back room can use the fanless chassis to run IP cameras and phones with no fan noise, keeping total PoE draw inside the 195W budget.
Classroom access points and VoIP phones connect to the 24 PoE+ ports, and the four 10G SFP+ uplinks carry their combined traffic back to the building core.

C1200-24P-4X differs from C1200-24P-4G in its uplinks: four 10G SFP+ ports and 128.0 Gbps of switching capacity, against four 1G SFP ports and 56.0 Gbps, with the same 24 PoE+ ports and 195W budget. Sites whose powered endpoints need more than 195W in total should order C1200-24FP-4X, which keeps the 10G uplinks with a 375W budget but adds one fan where C1200-24P-4X is fanless. Closets with no phones, cameras or access points to power can drop to C1200-24T-4X, which has the same uplinks and no PoE output on a 240 mm deep chassis. Where 1G aggregation is enough, C1200-24P-4G is the match.

Ordering Checklist
- Uplink optics: Add SFP-10G-SR, SFP-10G-LR, or SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M and SFP-H10GB-CU5M copper cables for 10G on the four SFP+ ports; 1G modules such as GLC-SX-MMD and GLC-LH-SMD run them at 1G. The package holds the switch, power cord, mounting kit and pointer card.
