C1300-16FP-2G Description
The C1300-16FP-2G is a Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series fixed managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ switch for branch closets that power phones, cameras and access points. The switch has 16 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports with a 240W PoE budget, two Gigabit SFP uplinks, 36.0 Gbps of switching capacity and a fanless chassis. Dynamic routing stops at RIP v2 with policy-based routing, and the model belongs to no hardware stacking family.

Product Performance
Key Features
All 16 copper ports supply PoE+ at up to 30W each, drawn from a shared 240W budget. That averages 15W per port if every port is powered at once, so the endpoint list sets how many 30W devices fit.
The ports power 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3af devices as well as Cisco pre-standard PoE, which covers phones, cameras and access points without adapters.
The two SFP slots carry uplinks at 1G, which fits a closet that hands off to the core over a single fiber or copper SFP link. The SFP slots are separate from the 16 copper ports.
With no fan, the chassis makes no noise even at the 240W PoE load. That allows installation in a small office or classroom rack.
Draw reaches 281.9W at 110V and 275.2W at 220V with PoE loaded, and heat output is 961.3 BTU/hr. Circuit and UPS sizing should start from those figures rather than the 20.6W system draw.
IPv4 and IPv6 routing runs at wire speed with up to 990 routes and 128 IP interfaces. Policy-based routing and up to 1,024 ACL rules support basic segmentation, while OSPF runs only on C1300X models.
Application Scenarios
A branch wiring closet powers IP phones, security cameras and badge readers from the 16 PoE+ ports and sends their traffic upstream over the two SFP uplinks.
In a school or library, ceiling-mounted access points and room phones draw power from the switch, which stays silent in a shared space because it has no fan.
A retail store feeds point-of-sale terminals, cameras and a Wi-Fi access point from one switch in the back office, with an SFP fiber link running to the main network room.

C1300 Family 1 |
C1300-16FP-2G doubles the PoE budget of C1300-16P-2G, 240W against 120W, on the same 16 PoE+ ports and two 1G SFP uplinks. Closets whose powered devices total under 120W can use C1300-16P-2G, and closets with no PoE endpoints can use C1300-16T-2G, which keeps the 16-port, 2 x 1G SFP layout without PoE output. Uplinks faster than 1G need C1300-16P-4X, which has 4 x 10G SFP+ and 112.0 Gbps of switching against 36.0 Gbps, but stays at 120W. Cisco’s datasheet lists C1300-16P-4X in a Catalyst 1300 stacking family and does not list the other three, so a stacked 16-port design also points to it.

UPS and circuit sizing should use the powered-switch draw rather than only idle consumption |

Thermal planning should reflect PoE load even though Cisco lists the model as fanless |
Ordering Checklist
- Uplink optics: Fill the two SFP slots with a module that fits the handoff: GLC-SX-MMD (550 m multimode), GLC-LH-SMD (10 km single-mode) or GLC-TE (100 m over Cat5e). The uplink slots need a module that matches the fiber or copper run.
- Rack bracket: Add RCKMNT-CMPCT-1K= to the order for rack mounting, because only 24-port and 48-port models ship with a 19-inch bracket. A 16-port model arrives without a rack bracket.
- Power cord: Keep the power cord in the package or select NO-POWER-CORD to leave it out. The package includes a power cord unless NO-POWER-CORD is selected.
