C1300-24FP-4G Description
C1300-24FP-4G is a Cisco Catalyst 1300 managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ switch for campus access networks that need copper endpoint connectivity, PoE power, and fiber uplinks in one fixed platform. It provides 24 10/100/1000 RJ45 PoE+ downlink ports, 4 Gigabit SFP uplinks, a 375W PoE power budget, 56.0 Gbps switching capacity, and a 41.66 Mpps forwarding rate, making it suited to access-layer deployments for IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other Gigabit edge devices.

Product Performance
Key Features
The switch gives procurement teams a 24-port powered copper access line item, so port count and endpoint wattage can be checked before moving to a 48-port chassis.
C1300-24FP-4G uses 4 Gigabit SFP uplinks, keeping the order aligned with 1G fiber handoffs instead of the 10G SFP+ uplink set used by 4X models.
The Cisco-listed 375W PoE value is the planning boundary for phones, cameras, readers, and selected access points attached to the 24 copper ports.
Power planning should use the internal 100 to 240V AC design and the correct regional cord choice rather than assuming an external adapter.
Catalyst 1300 switches run customized Linux OS software and support IPv4 and IPv6 routing features for branch and SMB segmentation designs.
The Catalyst 1300 documentation identifies Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, web UI, CLI, and SNMP as management options for this family.
Application Scenarios
C1300-24FP-4G fits sites where phones, cameras, access-control readers, or access points need powered copper ports and the project still fits a 24-port access layer.
Select this SKU when the same 24 x 1G access and 4 x 1G SFP uplink layout is required but the 195W C1300-24P-4G power budget is too low for the endpoint worksheet.
The model is suitable when upstream links are planned around 1G SFP optics and the bill of materials does not call for the 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks on C1300-24FP-4X.

- In a C1300-24FP-4G vs C1300-24P-4G comparison, the difference is PoE budget: both use 24 PoE+ ports and 4 x 1G SFP uplinks, but C1300-24FP-4G provides 375W instead of 195W.
- The C1300-24FP-4G vs C1300-24T-4G difference is powered access, because C1300-24T-4G keeps the 24-port and 4 x 1G SFP format without PoE.
- For C1300-24FP-4G vs C1300-24FP-4X, the comparison turns on uplink speed and switching capacity: the 4X model changes to 4 x 10G SFP+ and 128.0 Gbps while keeping the 375W PoE class.
- The which model to choose check should start with endpoint power and then confirm whether the uplink requirement is 1G SFP or 10G SFP+.
Selection Guide
1. Size the access layer before choosing the PoE tier
Start with C1300-24FP-4G when the site is already planned around 24 copper access ports and needs a 375W PoE pool instead of the 195W 24P class.
2. Use the 24P variant only after the wattage math
C1300-24P-4G is the adjacent 1G-uplink PoE SKU for projects where endpoint count remains 24 but device draw fits inside 195W.
3. Remove PoE from the order when endpoints are self-powered
C1300-24T-4G belongs on data-only quotes with 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports and four 1G SFP uplinks, so it should not replace this SKU for powered phones, cameras, or access points.
4. Change the uplink tier when aggregation requires it
C1300-24FP-4X keeps 24 PoE+ ports and the 375W PoE class but moves the uplinks to 10G SFP+, making it the alternative for faster fiber handoffs.
PoE Power Planning
|
Check Item |
Cisco-confirmed Value |
Planning Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Available PoE |
375W power dedicated to PoE |
The endpoint worksheet must keep aggregate powered-device draw inside the full-PoE 24-port budget |
|
PoE port count |
24 PoE-capable access ports |
Powered devices are placed on copper access ports and share one switch-level power pool |
|
PoE standards |
802.3at PoE+, 802.3af, and Cisco pre-standard PoE |
Endpoint compatibility should be checked against the power standard requested by each device |
|
Power consumption with PoE |
110V=452.3W; 220V=436.9W |
UPS and circuit sizing should use the powered-switch draw rather than only idle power |
|
Heat dissipation |
1542.3 BTU/hr |
Cabinet thermal planning should account for loaded PoE operation |
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact product ID |
C1300-24FP-4G appears on the purchase line |
Prevents substitution with the lower-budget 24P model or the data-only 24T model |
|
Endpoint power worksheet |
Total powered-device draw stays within 375W |
The switch has 24 PoE+ ports but still uses one aggregate PoE budget |
|
Uplink media |
4 x Gigabit SFP optics or copper SFPs match the upstream handoff |
Keeps the order aligned with 1G uplinks rather than a 10G SFP+ 4X model |
|
Mounting hardware |
The 24-port rack-mount package or spare 1RU kit is covered in the order |
Cisco lists 24-port models as rack-mountable and notes that 24/48-port models include 19-in mounting brackets |
|
Power input |
Internal 100 to 240V AC and the correct regional power cord option are planned |
Avoids ordering assumptions based on external adapter models or a wrong cord choice |
|
Power and heat plan |
PoE-loaded power draw and 1542.3 BTU/hr heat dissipation are acceptable for the closet |
The electrical and cabinet plan should reflect powered operation |
|
Operations handoff |
Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, web UI, CLI, or SNMP is the intended management path |
Confirms how the managed switch will be configured and monitored after installation |
