Verkkokytkin Cisco Catalyst C1300-12XS hallittava L2/L3, 12 x 10Gb SFP+, 240 Gbit/s, 16k MAC, räkkiasennus, harmaa

The Cisco Catalyst C1300-12XS is a fixed, managed Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2/Layer 3 switch designed for small and medium-sized businesses, branch offices, and rack-mounted aggregation or server-access roles. It provides 12 10Gb SFP+ ports, a 16,000-entry MAC address table and 240 Gbit/s switching capacity. Running on a customized Linux-based OS with a web-based dashboard, the switch supports common IEEE networking standards and offers multi-layer switching and security features suitable for deployment in wiring closets and small datacenter environments.

Advantages

The Catalyst C1300-12XS combines multi-layer (L2/L3) managed functionality with a compact rack-mountable form factor and 12 high-speed 10Gb SFP+ ports. It delivers a balance of switching capacity and MAC table size for aggregation, server access or small datacenter uses, while the web-based management and CLI options simplify configuration. Built-in support for IEEE standards, QoS, ACLs and 802.1x authentication enables predictable performance and security for business-critical traffic.

How to use

Mount the Catalyst C1300-12XS in a standard equipment rack and connect fibre or SFP+ modules to the 10Gb ports for uplinks and device connectivity. Access the web-based dashboard for initial setup or use the CLI for advanced configuration. Configure VLANs, L2/L3 interfaces, QoS policies and ACLs according to network design, and enable 802.1x and other IEEE features where authentication or redundancy is required. Monitor performance and status via the management interface.

Recommendations

For optimal operation, use compatible SFP+ modules and quality fibre cabling; plan VLANs and QoS before deployment to ensure predictable traffic flows. Keep firmware updated and apply ACLs and 802.1x for enhanced security in aggregation and server access roles.
