Product Performance
Key Features
The switch supports PoE+ on 24 copper access ports with a 195W aggregate budget, so endpoint count and endpoint draw need to be checked as one power pool.
Four SFP+ uplinks let the bill of materials stay on 10G aggregation while keeping the access side on 24 Gigabit copper ports.
Cisco lists C1300-24P-4X as fanless, which matters when the access switch is installed in smaller rooms, wall cabinets, or open office equipment areas.
The data sheet places C1300-24P-4X in C1300 Family 1 for hardware stacking, with supported stacks of up to eight switches when same-family stack rules are followed.
Power planning should use the internal 100 to 240V AC design and the correct regional cord, not an external adapter assumption from smaller Catalyst 1300 models.
Catalyst 1300 documentation covers web UI, CLI, Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, and SNMP management paths for this switch family.
Application Scenarios
C1300-24P-4X fits 24-port access closets where phones, cameras, readers, or access points need PoE+ and the upstream design has moved to 10G SFP+.
Use this SKU when endpoint draw fits the Cisco-listed 195W budget and the project benefits from a fanless 24-port model rather than a higher-power 24FP variant.
The model is relevant when a branch or SMB refresh needs a C1300 Family 1 stack member with 24 powered access ports and four 10G uplinks.

- In a C1300-24P-4X vs C1300-24FP-4X comparison, the table difference is PoE budget: both keep 24 PoE+ ports and four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but C1300-24P-4X is the 195W model.
- The C1300-24P-4X vs C1300-24T-4X difference is powered access; C1300-24T-4X keeps the 4X uplink tier but removes PoE from the access ports.
- For C1300-24P-4X vs C1300-24P-4G, the comparison turns on uplink speed and switching capacity because the 4G model uses 4 x 1G SFP uplinks and 56.0 Gbps.
- The which SKU to order check should start with PoE budget, then confirm whether the uplink requirement is 10G SFP+ or 1G SFP.
Selection Guide
1. Use it when 195W is the right PoE envelope
Select C1300-24P-4X for sites that need 24 PoE+ copper ports and 10G uplinks but do not require the 375W budget of the full-PoE model.
2. Escalate to 24FP only for a larger powered load
C1300-24FP-4X is the adjacent choice when the same 4X port layout is correct and the endpoint calculation no longer fits inside 195W.
3. Keep the 24T option for unpowered edge ports
C1300-24T-4X belongs on data-only access quotes where the 24 copper endpoints do not need PoE but the four 10G uplinks are still required.
4. Use 24P-4G only when 1G uplinks are intentional
C1300-24P-4G keeps the 195W PoE class and changes the uplinks to 4 x 1G SFP, so it should be selected only when Gigabit aggregation is the plan.
PoE Power Planning

Planning Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
Dedicated PoE value |
195W power dedicated to PoE |
Keep the total powered-device draw inside the switch-level budget |
|

Phones, cameras, readers, and access points share one aggregate PoE pool |
|
PoE standards |
802.3at PoE+, 802.3af, and Cisco pre-standard PoE |
Match endpoint requirements to the supported PoE class before quoting |
|
Power consumption with PoE |
110V=235.8W; 220V=232.9W |
UPS and circuit planning should use loaded PoE draw rather than idle power |
|
Heat dissipation |

Cabinet thermal planning should account for powered operation even though the model is fanless |
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Product identifier |
Purchase line shows C1300-24P-4X exactly |
Separates this 195W 4X PoE model from 24T no-PoE and 24FP 375W alternatives |
|
Powered-device load |
Phones, cameras, access points, and readers fit within 195W |
Prevents treating 24 PoE+ ports as a full 30W-per-port budget |
|
SFP+ uplink plan |
Cisco-supported SFP+ optics or copper SFP+ cables match the upstream port |
Avoids ordering a 4G SFP model or unsupported 10G media |
|
Stack membership |
Any stack uses compatible C1300 Family 1 members and a valid count |
Same-family stacking is required for this platform group |
|
AC and cord |
Internal 100 to 240V AC input and country power cord are captured |
Prevents small-model adapter assumptions from entering the order |
|
Management method |
Web UI, CLI, Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, or SNMP owner is assigned |
Keeps the day-one configuration path clear |

Second batch this quarter. Layer23 delivers every time.
Tech is solid. Wiring closet looks much better now. Thanks for the help.
The 10G uplinks prevent bottlenecks for our Wi-Fi 6 APs. Excellent switch.
