C1300-16T-2G Description
The C1300-16T-2G is a Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series fanless Layer 3 data switch for small offices, classrooms and shops whose wired devices have their own power. The switch has 16 data-only Gigabit RJ-45 ports with no PoE output, two separate Gigabit SFP uplinks and 36 Gbps of switching capacity from an internal 100-240V supply. The model is not on any Catalyst 1300 hardware stacking list, so it runs as a standalone unit.

Product Performance
Key Features
The two SFP slots are separate ports rather than copper/SFP combo pairs, so all 16 RJ-45 ports stay available when both uplinks carry fiber. GLC-LH-SMD reaches 10 km on single-mode, and GLC-SX-MMD covers 550 m on multimode.
With no fan and a 268 x 272 x 43.94 mm chassis weighing 2.18 kg, the switch can sit on a shelf in an open-plan office, a classroom or a store rather than in a wiring closet.
At 110V the switch draws no more than 10.9W, and it idles at 4.6W. Heat output is 38.2 BTU/hr, a small load for a shared cabinet or a desk-side UPS.
IPv4 and IPv6 route at wire speed, with RIP v2, policy-based routing and a built-in DHCP server. Up to 128 IP interfaces let staff, guest and device VLANs route on the switch itself instead of the site router.
The forwarding table holds 16,000 MAC addresses and 2,000 IGMP snooping groups. Up to 1,024 ACL rules can filter traffic in either direction, and time-based ACLs apply them only during set hours.
802.1X and web authentication decide who gets onto each port. DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection then block spoofed addresses on the same ports.
Application Scenarios
In a small office, the switch connects desktop PCs, printers and a local file server over Gigabit copper, and routes between the staff and device VLANs without a separate router.
A school places the fanless unit in a classroom or library to link student workstations, where it adds no fan noise to the room and hands traffic to the building network over one SFP uplink.
Point-of-sale terminals, a back-office PC and a separately powered access point in a retail store plug into the copper ports, while Guest VLAN keeps visitor traffic apart from store systems.

C1300-16T-2G and C1300-16P-2G share 16 Gigabit ports, two SFP uplinks and 36 Gbps, and PoE separates them: C1300-16T-2G is data-only, while C1300-16P-2G offers 30W PoE+ on each of its 16 ports from a shared 120W budget for sites with phones, cameras or access points. A site that outgrows 16 copper ports or needs more than two uplinks moves to C1300-24T-4G, with 24 data ports, four Gigabit SFP slots and 56 Gbps. C1200-16T-2G keeps the same port layout and 36 Gbps but routes with up to 32 static routes only, which suits networks where the site router handles inter-VLAN traffic.
Ordering Checklist
- Uplink optics: Add one supported 1G SFP per uplink in use, such as GLC-SX-MMD (550 m multimode), GLC-LH-SMD (10 km single-mode) or GLC-TE (100 m copper). The box ships without optics.
- Rack bracket: Add RCKMNT-CMPCT-1K= if the switch goes into a 19-inch rack. Only 24-port and 48-port models ship with 19-inch brackets.
- Power cord option: Leave NO-POWER-CORD off the order unless a cord is sourced locally, because selecting it removes the power cord from the box.
