Kezelt switch Cisco Catalyst 1200-8P-E-2G 8 Port GE PoE

The Cisco Catalyst 1200-8P-E-2G is a managed 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with PoE capability, designed for small and medium business networks. It provides Layer 2/3 switching, multiple IEEE networking standard support and compact white housing to deliver reliable connectivity and centrally managed power-over-Ethernet to connected devices.

Advantages

The switch combines managed features with PoE on all eight Gigabit ports, support for IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation, and Layer 2/3 functionality for flexible network design. Its compact form factor and industry-standard protocol support enable predictable performance and interoperability with existing network equipment.

Suitable for

• Small office networks requiring PoE for IP phones, wireless access points or cameras
• Branch or satellite offices that need managed Layer 2/3 switching
• Environments needing IEEE 802.1Q VLAN segmentation and link aggregation (802.3ad)

Key specifications

• Switch type: Managed
• Ports: 8 x Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) with PoE
• Additional uplinks: 2 x Gigabit SFP or 2G uplink ports (as indicated by model)
• Layer: Layer 2/3 switching
• Supported standards: IEEE 802.1Q, 802.1ab, 802.1ad, 802.1w, 802.1x, 802.3, 802.3ad, 802.3u, 802.3x, 802.3z
• Colour: White

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or in a small rack as appropriate. Connect power and attach network devices to the eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports; enable PoE if required for powered devices. Use the management interface (web GUI or CLI) to configure VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q), set up link aggregation (802.3ad), assign IP addressing for management, and enable security features such as 802.1x. Connect uplink ports to the core network or routers using appropriate SFP modules or copper uplinks.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, ensure firmware is kept up to date and configure VLANs and link aggregation according to network design. Verify PoE power budget against connected devices’ requirements and place the switch in a ventilated location to avoid overheating.
