Cisco C1000-8T-E-2G-L Catalyst 1000 8-Port Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch
The Cisco C1000-8T-E-2G-L is a compact managed Gigabit Ethernet switch from the Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series, designed for small business networks, branch offices, workgroups and other access-layer Ethernet deployments. It provides 8 × 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports along with 2 × 1G SFP/RJ45 combo uplink interfaces, providing flexible connectivity for local devices and upstream network infrastructure.
The switch is a non-PoE configuration, making it suitable for applications where Ethernet data connectivity is required without integrated Power over Ethernet. The two combo uplinks allow the network administrator to use either the SFP interface or the corresponding RJ45 interface according to the network design and available cabling.
Key Features
- 8 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: Provides 8 × 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 ports for connecting computers, printers, IP devices, servers and other Ethernet endpoints.
- 2 × 1G Combo Uplinks: Provides two combo interfaces supporting either compatible 1G SFP connectivity or RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.
- Managed Switching: Supports Cisco Catalyst 1000 managed Layer 2 networking and configuration capabilities.
- Compact Fanless Design: Suitable for small offices, branch locations, workgroups and deployments where low-noise operation is desirable.
- Non-PoE Configuration: Designed for data-only Ethernet connectivity without an integrated PoE power budget.

Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity
The eight 10/100/1000BASE-T ports provide flexible Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for network endpoints. Connected devices can negotiate the appropriate Ethernet speed based on their capabilities and the network environment.
1G SFP/RJ45 Combo Uplinks
The two uplink interfaces are designed as combo ports. Each combo interface provides an SFP option and an RJ45 Ethernet option, allowing the administrator to select the appropriate medium for the deployment. The SFP and RJ45 interfaces within a combo pair are not intended to operate simultaneously as independent ports.
Compatible 1G SFP transceivers can be selected according to the required fiber type, transmission distance and network architecture. For copper uplinks, the corresponding RJ45 Gigabit interface can be used instead.
Managed Layer 2 Networking
As part of the Cisco Catalyst 1000 family, the C1000-8T-E-2G-L is intended for managed access-layer networking. It provides administrative control over Ethernet switching and supports Cisco's management and Layer 2 networking capabilities for structured business networks.
Compact Fanless Design
The compact fanless form factor makes this switch suitable for locations where space and acoustic noise are important considerations. It can be deployed in small offices, branch locations, workgroups and other environments where a compact managed Gigabit switch is required.
Applications
- Small business Ethernet networks
- Branch office connectivity
- Small workgroup networks
- Office desktop and workstation connectivity
- Printer and IP device networking
- Small server and network equipment deployments
- Fiber or copper uplink connectivity
- Managed network expansion projects
- Legacy Cisco network maintenance and replacement projects
Compatibility
The C1000-8T-E-2G-L is designed for standard 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet devices and compatible 1G SFP uplink configurations. The specific SFP transceiver should be selected according to Cisco compatibility requirements, fiber type, transmission distance and the intended network configuration.
About the Lifetime License
The phrase Lifetime License may be used in reseller listings for this product. Cisco's hardware documentation identifies the product by its specific hardware SKU, C1000-8T-E-2G-L. Any lifetime licensing, warranty or support entitlement included with a particular unit should therefore be confirmed with the seller before purchase.
Legacy Product Consideration
The Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series is a previous-generation Cisco switch family. For deployments requiring long-term lifecycle support, buyers should confirm the availability, warranty, software entitlement and support status of the specific unit. A newer Cisco Catalyst 1300-series model may be appropriate for some new deployments depending on the required port configuration and features.
Why Choose Cisco C1000-8T-E-2G-L?
The Cisco C1000-8T-E-2G-L combines eight Gigabit Ethernet access ports with two flexible 1G SFP/RJ45 combo uplinks in a compact managed platform. Its fanless design makes it suitable for smaller installations, while the combo uplinks provide flexibility when connecting the switch to copper- or fiber-based upstream infrastructure.
