Product Performance
Key Features
One C1300-48FP-4G order line supplies 48 powered Gigabit copper ports, letting the buyer size endpoint count and PoE draw in the same hardware choice.
The uplink block is 4 x Gigabit SFP, so the optics list should stay in the 1G SFP family rather than the 10G SFP+ media used by 4X SKUs.
The full-PoE budget supports larger powered-device worksheets than the 370W 48P variant, while still requiring aggregate wattage control across all PoE ports.
Cisco lists this model under internal 100 to 240V AC power, which keeps power planning tied to rack PDU and cord selection instead of an external adapter.
Catalyst 1300 documentation describes managed switching with web UI, CLI, SNMP, Cisco Business Dashboard, Cisco Business mobile app, and Layer 3 static routing features.
The chassis is rack-mountable with one fan, 48.7 dBA acoustic noise at 25 C, and a 2915.50 BTU/hr PoE-loaded heat value that should be visible in closet planning.
Application Scenarios
C1300-48FP-4G fits a closet where cameras, phones, readers, or access points need 48 Gigabit PoE+ copper ports and the powered-device worksheet approaches full-PoE territory.
The SKU is appropriate when upstream handoff remains 1G SFP and the project does not require the 4 x 10G SFP+ uplinks found on C1300-48FP-4X.
This model belongs in 48-port Catalyst 1300 quotes where C1300-48P-4G has the right port count but its 370W PoE budget is too low for the endpoint plan.

- In a C1300-48FP-4G vs C1300-48P-4G comparison, the key difference is PoE budget: both keep 48 PoE+ downlinks and 4 x 1G SFP uplinks, but the FP SKU moves to 740W.
- The C1300-48FP-4G vs C1300-48T-4G difference is powered access; the T model has the same 48-port 1G access count and 4 x 1G SFP uplinks without PoE.
- For C1300-48FP-4G vs C1300-48FP-4X, the comparison is uplink speed and switching capacity, because the 4X SKU changes to 4 x 10G SFP+ and 176.0 Gbps.
- The which model to choose check should separate three requirements: 740W PoE, 48-port copper density, and whether the uplink design is 1G SFP or 10G SFP+.
Selection Guide
1. Start with endpoint wattage
Choose C1300-48FP-4G when the powered-device worksheet needs the 740W PoE class across 48 Gigabit access ports.
2. Keep C1300-48P-4G for lighter PoE designs
C1300-48P-4G is the adjacent 48-port 1G SFP model when 370W is enough and the order does not need the full-PoE budget.
3. Remove PoE only for data-only access
C1300-48T-4G should be quoted only when the same 48 copper access count is required without powered endpoints.
4. Move to the 4X model for faster uplinks
C1300-48FP-4X keeps the 48-port full-PoE profile but belongs in BOMs that require 10G SFP+ uplinks instead of 1G SFP handoff.

Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact product ID |
C1300-48FP-4G is on the purchase line |
Prevents substitution with C1300-48P-4G or a data-only 48T model |
|
Endpoint power worksheet |
Aggregate powered-device draw fits within 740W |
The switch has 48 PoE+ ports but still uses one shared PoE budget |
|
Uplink media |
1G SFP optics or copper SFP modules match the upstream handoff |
Avoids ordering 10G SFP+ media intended for 4X models |
|
Electrical plan |
100 to 240V AC input and PoE-loaded power draw are acceptable |
The powered configuration draws far more than the idle switch |
|
Rack and airflow space |
1RU depth and ventilation clearance are available |
Cisco installation guidance requires clearance around ventilation openings |
|
Acoustic and heat review |
48.7 dBA at 25 C and 2915.50 BTU/hr are acceptable for the closet |
High-PoE 48-port access switches can affect office-adjacent spaces and cabinets |
