Key Features
Deliver power and data for access points, phones, and cameras with integrated PoE+ on every port (PoE+ switch, power over Ethernet, powered access).
High-speed, dedicated uplinks support fiber aggregation, data center connections, and bandwidth-intensive tasks (10G uplink, SFP+ fiber, high-bandwidth).
Supports stacking of up to 8 switches for unified management, flexible expansion, and simplified configuration (stackable switch, stack management).
Static and inter-VLAN routing, IPv4/IPv6, and advanced segmentation for secure, efficient network design (Layer 3, managed VLAN).
802.1X, DHCP snooping, ACLs, port security, and IP Source Guard to safeguard business traffic and control access (secure switch, network security).
Ideal for open offices, retail, and education, providing quiet, reliable performance (fanless, silent, compact).
Application Scenarios
Central switch for branch networks, powering PoE devices and aggregating high-speed uplinks to data centers or campus cores.
Supports Wi-Fi 6/7 access points and high-resolution security cameras with ample PoE power and 10G fiber backhaul.
Stackable design and robust management features make it perfect for educational, healthcare, or hospitality networks scaling across multiple rooms or buildings.

Model Selection Guide for C1300-16P-4X
When to Choose the C1300-16P-4X:
- You need a compact, silent switch for branch, retail, or office deployments with up to 16 wired PoE+ endpoints (phones, APs, cameras) and no tolerance for noisy fan operation.
- Your network requires future scalability and simplified management: The C1300-16P-4X supports front-panel stacking (up to 8 units, same family) for unified configuration, seamless expansion, and high availability.
- You have a mix of bandwidth-intensive applications or uplink needs: With 4× SFP+ (10G) fiber uplinks, this model ensures your access layer won’t bottleneck wireless, surveillance, or data-heavy services.
- Your PoE budget requirements fit within 120W: This is sufficient for smaller clusters of PoE+ devices (such as modern Wi-Fi 6 APs, several IP phones, and a few cameras). For higher PoE demands, consider the C1300-16FP-2G or a 24/48-port FP model.
Choose C1300-16P-4X Over Similar Models If:
- You need 10G uplinks: Competing 16-port C1300 models (e.g., C1300-16P-2G) only offer 1G SFP uplinks. The 16P-4X delivers four true 10G SFP+ for aggregation, high-speed server access, or fiber stacking.
- You want stacking capability: Only “-4X” family models support hardware stacking; others are standalone only.
- You prioritize fanless, silent operation: Unlike higher PoE budget “FP” models, the 16P-4X remains fanless and is suitable for noise-sensitive zones.
Typical Use Cases:
- Branch or SMB Core Switch – Aggregating access points and workstations with high-speed 10G fiber uplinks to the main building or data center.
- Retail, Healthcare, or School Wiring Closets – Where noise must be minimized but performance, security, and centralized management cannot be compromised.
- Wireless Edge Aggregation – Ideal for dense AP deployments, especially where future-proofing for Wi-Fi 6/7 is desired.
Upgrade or Consider Other Models If:
- You require more than 120W total PoE budget for a larger quantity of high-power devices – consider C1300-16FP-2G (240W) or C1300-24FP-4X/C1300-48FP-4X.
- You need more than 16 access ports – consider C1300-24P-4X (24-port, 10G uplinks, 195W PoE) or C1300-48P-4X.
- You do not require 10G uplinks or stacking – C1300-16P-2G is a cost-effective alternative.
