Cisco Catalyst 1300X 24-port Layer 3 switch

This managed rackmount switch delivers 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports and four 10G SFP28 uplinks for small to medium business and branch office networks. It runs a customised Linux OS with Cisco Business Dashboard for simplified setup and advanced Layer 3 routing features. Hardware stacking supports up to eight units managed as a single 400-port system with failover.

Suits growing businesses needing secure Layer 3

Organisations that require Power over Ethernet for phones or cameras should consider other models in the same family. Environments needing higher-density 10G or 25G access ports will need a different platform. The 3 MB buffer and 95.23 Mpps forwarding rate fit typical branch workloads but not high-frequency trading or large data-centre spines.

24 RJ45 plus 4 SFP28 uplink configuration

The front panel provides exactly twenty-four 10/100/1000 copper ports and four 10G SFP28 cages, with 25G speed reserved solely for stacking links. This fixed port mix determines whether the switch matches your cabling plan and uplink bandwidth requirements before purchase.

Questions about this item

At what packet rate does the 3 MB buffer become the bottleneck under sustained load?

The switch forwards up to 95.23 million packets per second with 64-byte frames, and the 3 MB buffer absorbs bursts before any drops occur.

What is the power draw and thermal output when all 24 RJ45 ports and 4 SFP28 uplinks run continuously?

Maximum power consumption is 32.10 W, so heat dissipation stays low enough for standard rack airflow without extra cooling.

Which SFP28 modules and stacking cables must be purchased separately to activate the four 10G uplinks and optional 25G stacking?

The four uplinks accept any 10G SFP28 transceiver, while stacking at 25G requires compatible 25G SFP28 modules and direct-attach cables.
