Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L Full English Product Description
1. Product Overview
The Cisco Catalyst C1000-8FP-2G-L is a high-power fanless Layer 2 managed Gigabit full PoE+ switch from the Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series, powered by lightweight Cisco IOS Lite firmware. Equipped with built-in internal universal power supply, it features 8 full PoE+ Gigabit RJ45 downlink ports with a massive 120W total PoE power budget, paired with dual 1G SFP/RJ45 combo uplink interfaces. Differentiated from low-power C1000-8P-2G-L (67W PoE), this FP model can power all 8 ports at full 30W PoE+ simultaneously, supporting high-power Wi-Fi 6/6E APs, multi-lens IP surveillance cameras and high-end VoIP phones. Adopting silent passive heat sink cooling, compact half-rack chassis, complete enterprise L2 switching tools and multi-channel local management, it is ideal for small branch offices, retail stores, classroom surveillance pods and dense low-port-count PoE deployments in noise-restricted environments.
