C1200-24T-4G Description
The C1200-24T-4G is a Cisco Catalyst 1200 Series managed switch for small offices and classrooms that need 24 data-only Gigabit copper ports with fiber or copper SFP uplinks. The switch has 24 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports, four Gigabit SFP uplinks and 56.0 Gbps of switching capacity, in a fanless 445 x 240 x 44 mm chassis that draws 13.9W at 110V. The switch has no PoE output, so phones, cameras and access points need a separate power source or a Catalyst 1200 PoE+ model.

Product Performance
Key Features
The 24 RJ-45 ports run at 10/100/1000 with no PoE output. Endpoints that need switch power belong on a PoE+ model instead.
The SFP slots take fiber modules, or copper SFPs for Category 5e runs, so the uplink medium follows the cabling that is already in the building.
The 24 copper ports and four SFP uplinks total 28 Gbps in each direction, which equals the 56.0 Gbps capacity, so no port is oversubscribed inside the switch.
Worst-case draw is 13.9W at 110V and heat output is 48.4 BTU/hr, far below the PoE models in the family, so the fanless chassis runs without airflow planning.
The 445 x 240 x 44 mm chassis is one of the shallowest 24-port bodies in the Catalyst 1200 line and fits shallow wall and desk racks.
The switch routes IPv4 and IPv6 at wire speed with up to 32 static routes and 16 IP interfaces, which covers simple inter-VLAN routing without a separate router.
Application Scenarios
In a small office, the switch connects desktop PCs, printers and a file server at Gigabit speed and links to the main network over an SFP uplink.
A school or library cabinet near users can host the fanless chassis, which makes no fan noise while it serves data-only workstations.
At the end of a fiber run, the four SFP slots carry traffic back to the main switch over multimode or single-mode fiber, or over copper SFP modules for shorter distances.

C1200-24T-4G differs from C1200-24T-4X in uplinks and throughput: four 1G SFP ports and 56.0 Gbps of switching capacity, against four 10G SFP+ ports and 128.0 Gbps, on the same 24 data-only copper ports and 445 x 240 x 44 mm chassis. Sites that hand off to a 10G aggregation layer should order C1200-24T-4X. Powered phones, cameras or access points need C1200-24P-4G, which keeps the 4 x 1G SFP uplinks and adds PoE+ with a 195W budget. A closet that needs only 16 ports and two 1G SFP uplinks can use C1200-16T-2G, which is 268 x 272 x 44 mm and rated at 36.0 Gbps.
Ordering Checklist
- Uplink optics: Add 1G modules for the four SFP ports, such as GLC-SX-MMD, GLC-LH-SMD, GLC-BX-U and GLC-BX-D, GLC-TE for Cat5e copper, or MGBSX1, MGBLH1, MGBLX1 and MGBT1. The package holds the switch, power cord, mounting kit and pointer card, so every uplink module is a separate order line.
