C1200-24P-4X Description
C1200-24P-4X is a Cisco Catalyst 1200 Series managed Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ switch for campus access deployments that need powered edge ports and 10G fiber uplinks. It provides 24 10/100/1000 RJ45 PoE+ ports, four 10G SFP+ uplink interfaces, a 195W PoE budget, 128.0 Gbps switching capacity, and 95.23 Mpps forwarding, with fanless operation and an internal universal AC power supply for quiet access-layer installations.

Product Performance
Key Features
The switch gives buyers 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and a Cisco-listed 195W aggregate budget without dropping to 1G SFP uplinks.
The uplink block uses 4 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports, making the SKU a better match for access designs that hand off to 10G aggregation than the 4G models.
Cisco identifies C1200-24P-4X as fanless, so the placement decision differs from the fan-cooled C1200-24FP-4X full-PoE variant.
The switch is powered by internal 100 to 240V AC, keeping the order focused on the correct power cord, rack PDU, and UPS load rather than an external adapter.
Catalyst 1200 documentation covers Layer 2 switching, VLAN, STP, ACL, QoS, IPv4 and IPv6 features, and Layer 3 static routing for access segmentation.
Operations teams can manage Catalyst 1200 switches through the on-box web UI, Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, CLI, and SNMP.
Application Scenarios
C1200-24P-4X fits small business, branch, retail, education, and office racks where the powered endpoint count is moderate but upstream links need the 10G SFP+ tier.
The fanless design suits access locations near users when phones, cameras, readers, or selected wireless access points can remain inside the Cisco-listed 195W budget.
The SKU is relevant when a site has outgrown a 24-port 1G SFP uplink model but does not need the higher 375W PoE class of the C1200-24FP 4X switch.

- In a C1200-24P-4X vs C1200-24P-4G comparison, the difference is the uplink tier: both keep 24 PoE+ ports and a 195W budget, but C1200-24P-4X moves from 4 x 1G SFP to 4 x 10G SFP+.
- The C1200-24P-4X vs C1200-24FP-4X difference is PoE budget and cooling; the FP model raises available PoE to 375W and uses one fan.
- For C1200-24P-4X vs C1200-24T-4X, the comparison is powered access: both are 24-port 4X models, but C1200-24P-4X adds PoE+ with a 195W budget.
- The which model to choose check should start with endpoint power draw, then confirm whether the aggregation design requires 10G SFP+ uplinks.
Selection Guide
1. Pick it for moderate PoE and 10G uplinks
Specify C1200-24P-4X when the access BOM needs 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports, 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks, and a 195W PoE budget.
2. Stay on C1200-24P-4G for 1G handoff
C1200-24P-4G is the closer order when the site needs the same 195W PoE class but uplinks through 4 x 1G SFP instead of SFP+.
3. Move to C1200-24FP-4X for higher endpoint draw
Select C1200-24FP-4X only when the same 24-port 10G-uplink design needs the 375W PoE budget rather than the 195W class.
4. Remove PoE with C1200-24T-4X
C1200-24T-4X belongs in the quote when the access design keeps 24 copper ports and 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks but has no powered endpoint requirement.
PoE Power Planning
|
Check Item |
Cisco-confirmed Value |
Planning Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Available PoE |
195W power dedicated to PoE |
Total powered-device draw must fit the lower 24-port Catalyst 1200 PoE budget |
|
PoE port count |
24 PoE+ access ports |
The switch can power endpoints on copper access ports within the aggregate budget |
|
Per-port PoE limit |
Up to 30.0W to any Gigabit Ethernet port within the switch budget |
Individual PoE+ endpoints are possible only while total switch budget remains available |
|
Power consumption with PoE |
110V=240.4W; 220V=236.3W |
UPS and circuit sizing should use the powered-switch draw |
|
Heat dissipation |
819.7 BTU/hr |
Thermal planning should account for PoE load even though the model is fanless |
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact SKU |
C1200-24P-4X |
Keeps the order tied to the 24-port Catalyst 1200 195W PoE switch with 10G SFP+ uplinks |
|
PoE budget |
Endpoint draw within 195W |
Prevents under-budgeting phones, cameras, readers, or access points that need the FP model |
|
Uplink media |
Cisco-listed SFP+ DAC or fiber optics for the 4 x 10G SFP+ ports |
Avoids quoting a 1G-only uplink model or unsupported media for the aggregation design |
|
Rack power |
Internal 100 to 240V AC input and powered-switch consumption |
Aligns the switch with the correct cord, rack PDU, and UPS capacity |
|
Placement |
Fanless 1RU hardware |
Confirms the site expects a lower-PoE fanless switch rather than a fan-cooled full-PoE model |
