Cisco C1000-8P-E-2G-L Price in Pakistan | 8-Port PoE Switch | SKYRS

The Cisco Catalyst C1000-8P-E-2G-L is a high-performance, compact Layer 2 managed switch specifically engineered for space-constrained and noise-sensitive environments. The “E” designation signifies its unique external power supply design, which allows for a significantly shallower depth compared to standard models.

8-Port External PS Family Variants

While the C1000-8P-E-2G-L is the standard PoE model, there are other “E” variants in the 8-port family available for different connectivity needs:

  • C1000-8T-E-2G-L: The data-only variant. It lacks PoE capabilities but shares the same slim, fanless, external-power-brick design.

  • C1000-8FP-E-2G-L: The “Full PoE” variant. It provides a higher 120W PoE budget via a larger external power supply, capable of powering high-draw devices like PTZ cameras.


Deployment and Installation

The C1000-8P-E-2G-L is designed for “out-of-the-wiring-closet” deployments. Its shallow depth (under 8 inches) makes it far more versatile than the standard 12-inch deep models.

  • Wall Mount: Ideal for retail outlets or small offices in Pakistan where rack space is unavailable.

  • Magnet/Tray Mount: Can be discreetly tucked under desks or behind cabinets using the optional magnetic mounting kit.

  • Desktop: The fanless design ensures it can sit on a workspace without generating noise.


Configuration and Management

SKYRS provides localized support for the various management interfaces available on this hardware:

  1. On-Box Web UI: Simple, browser-based configuration for users who prefer a graphical interface over coding.

  2. Cisco IOS CLI: Traditional command-line interface for advanced network engineers.

  3. Bluetooth Access: Allows wireless configuration via the Cisco Cisco Catalyst 1000 Series mobile app (requires a Bluetooth dongle).

  4. Security: Supports 802.1X, DHCP snooping, and Port Security to ensure the SKYRS-deployed network remains hardened.
