C1300-48T-4G Description
C1300-48T-4G is a Cisco Catalyst 1300 Series managed Gigabit Ethernet switch for campus and branch access networks that need a high-density data-only access layer. It provides 48 10/100/1000 RJ45 data ports and 4 Gigabit SFP uplinks, with 104 Gbps switching capacity and 77.38 Mpps forwarding performance for wiring-closet aggregation of workstations, printers, access points with separate power, and other Ethernet endpoints. This model is a non-PoE, non-stackable 48-port Catalyst 1300 configuration with internal universal AC power and one fan, making it suited to access deployments where copper endpoint density and 1G fiber uplinks matter more than PoE power delivery.

Product Performance
Key Features
The T-model access block covers 48 unpowered Gigabit Ethernet endpoints, making the PoE requirement the first filter before this SKU is added to a BOM.
The uplink side stays in the 1G SFP class, so optic selection should use Cisco-listed Gigabit SFP modules rather than SFP+ media for 4X models.
Cisco’s model comparison marks C1300-48T-4G as not stackable, which matters when the site design expects single-IP stack management.
The data sheet places C1300-48T-4G in the internal 100 to 240V AC power group, so the quote should capture the correct regional power cord.
Cisco model comparison describes Layer 2 switching, VLAN support, STP, advanced threat protection, IPv6 first-hop security, QoS, sFlow, and dynamic routing for Catalyst 1300 models.
The chassis is rack-mountable with one fan, 29.7 dBA acoustic noise at 25 C, and a 17.49 x 11.33 x 1.73 in enclosure.
Application Scenarios
C1300-48T-4G fits access racks where desktops, printers, kiosks, or other wired endpoints need 48 Gigabit copper ports and power is supplied outside the switch.
Use this SKU when the upstream handoff is four Gigabit SFP links and the network design does not require the 10G SFP+ uplinks of C1300-48T-4X.
The model belongs in quotes that intentionally avoid PoE hardware while keeping the same 48-port and 4 x 1G SFP access class as the 48P and 48FP variants.

- In a C1300-48T-4G vs C1300-48P-4G comparison, the table difference is PoE: both keep 48 copper ports and 4 x 1G SFP uplinks, but C1300-48T-4G is data only while C1300-48P-4G adds a 370W PoE budget.
- The C1300-48T-4G vs C1300-48FP-4G difference is the full-PoE class, because the FP model keeps the same 1G SFP uplink format and raises the Cisco-listed PoE budget to 740W.
- For C1300-48T-4G vs C1300-48T-4X, the comparison turns on uplink speed and stacking: the 4X model uses 10G SFP+ uplinks, higher switching capacity, and stack support in Cisco’s model comparison.
- The which model to choose check should separate endpoint power, uplink speed, and whether the site requires stackable Catalyst 1300 hardware.
Selection Guide
1. Select it for 48-port non-PoE access
Choose C1300-48T-4G when the BOM needs 48 Gigabit copper data ports and no endpoint requires switch-delivered power.
2. Keep the uplink plan in the 1G SFP class
Use this SKU when upstream optics are Gigabit SFP and the design does not call for four 10G SFP+ uplinks.
3. Move to a PoE SKU for powered endpoints
Select C1300-48P-4G or C1300-48FP-4G only when phones, cameras, access points, or readers need PoE+ from the access switch.
4. Use a 4X model for stack or 10G uplink needs
C1300-48T-4X is the adjacent data-only 48-port option when the design requires 10G SFP+ uplinks or stack support listed by Cisco.
Ordering Checklist
|
Review Area |
Required Check |
Procurement Risk |
|---|---|---|
|
PID match |
Confirm C1300-48T-4G appears exactly on the purchase line |
A nearby 48P, 48FP, or 4X SKU changes the power or uplink design |
|
Powered endpoints |
Verify phones, cameras, access points, and readers are powered elsewhere |
The T model is a data-only switch with no Cisco-listed PoE budget |
|
Fiber handoff |
Match the upstream BOM to four Gigabit SFP ports |
10G SFP+ optics belong with 4X models rather than this 4G PID |
|
Stack expectation |
Check that the closet design does not require stack membership |
Cisco model comparison marks this 4G switch as not stackable |
|
Cabinet fit |
Reserve space for a 17.49 x 11.33 x 1.73 in rack chassis |
Depth mismatch can delay installation even when the port count is correct |
