1. Short Sales Title (For Quotation & E-commerce Listing)
Cisco CBS350-16T-E-2G Business 350 Series 16-Port Gigabit Non-PoE Fully Managed Layer 3 Switch, EU Regional Power Version, 2 Gigabit SFP/RJ45 Combo Uplinks, Dual-Stack IPv4/IPv6 Dynamic Routing, True Stackable, Fanless 1RU Compact Rackmount Mid-Density Data Switch
2. Official Product Overview
The Cisco CBS350-16T-E-2G is the EU regional variant of CBS350-16T-2G enterprise-class fully managed Layer 3 switch within Cisco Business 350 portfolio. The suffix "-E" indicates it ships with EU standard mains power cord and fully complies with CE, RoHS and EU electromagnetic safety standards, exclusively built for European small-to-medium businesses, retail back offices, campus classrooms and branch wiring closets without PoE-powered endpoints.
Superior to entry-level CBS250 smart switches, the CBS350 platform delivers complete enterprise-grade capabilities including dynamic Layer 3 routing, true stacking, full anti-spoofing security suite, sFlow traffic analytics and robust multicast control. This non-PoE copper access switch focuses on high-density pure data connectivity for office PCs, workstations, NAS storage, POS terminals and separately powered Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, supporting flexible short copper or long-distance fiber uplink expansion via dual combo ports.
It equips 16×10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 data ports plus 2 dual-purpose Gigabit combo uplink ports (each supports RJ45 copper or SFP fiber transceiver), providing 18 total Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Powered by high-performance ARM SoC with 512MB DRAM and 256MB flash memory, it delivers 36 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity and 26.78 Mpps wire-speed forwarding rate for 64-byte frames, paired with a 1.5MB shared dynamic packet buffer to eliminate congestion under concurrent bulk file transfers, multi-stream 4K video and centralized surveillance backhaul. Fanless passive cooling ensures silent deployment in open offices, retail spaces and classrooms without noise interference.
