Cisco CBS250-16FP-2G Full English Product Description
1. Short Sales Title (For Quotation & E-commerce Listing)
Cisco CBS250-16FP-2G Business 250 Series 16-Port Full PoE+ Gigabit Smart Managed Switch, 370W High PoE Power Budget, 2 Dedicated 1G SFP Uplink Ports, Layer 3 Static Routing, Fanless 1RU Rackmount Switch
2. Official Product Overview
The Cisco CBS250-16FP-2G is a high-power PoE+ smart switch within Cisco Business 250 Series, designed for high-density PoE deployments such as multi-camera surveillance, high-power Wi-Fi 6/6E APs, video IP phones and thin-client classroom setups. Distinguished from the low-budget CBS250-16P-2G, this FP variant delivers a robust 370W total PoE budget to fully power all 16 PoE+ ports at maximum 30W each simultaneously, eliminating power allocation restrictions for high-demand PoE endpoints.
It delivers enterprise-grade switching performance, complete Layer 2 feature set, native embedded IPv4 static routing, multi-layer security and intuitive web-based management at SMB-friendly cost. The hardware integrates 16 IEEE 802.3at PoE+ Gigabit RJ45 ports plus 2 independent dedicated Gigabit SFP fiber uplink slots, providing 18 total Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Powered by an 800MHz ARM CPU, 512MB DRAM and 256MB flash storage, it provides 36 Gbps switching capacity and 26.78 Mpps wire-speed forwarding rate for 64-byte frames, supporting stable concurrent high-bandwidth video streaming, multi-user file transfer and real-time voice traffic without congestion.
