Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960X-48FPD-L  2960-X Series Switches are fixed-configuration, stackable Gigabit Ethernet switches that provide enterprise-class access for campus and branch applications (Figure 1). Designed for operational simplicity to lower total cost of ownership, they enable scalable, secure and energy-efficient business operations with intelligent services and a range of advanced Cisco IOS® Software features. – 24 or 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports with line-rate forwarding performance. – Gigabit Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) or 10G SFP+ uplinks. – FlexStack Plus for stacking of up to 8 switches with 80 Gbps of stack throughput (optional). – Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support with up to 740W of PoE budget. – Reduced power consumption and advanced energy management features. – USB and Ethernet management interfaces for simplified operations. – Application visibility and capacity planning with integrated NetFlow-Lite. – LAN Base or LAN Lite Cisco IOS® software features. – Enhanced limited lifetime warranty (E-LLW) offering next-business-day hardware replacement.

he WS-C2960X-48FPD-L configuration includes 2 SFP+ uplink interfaces, FlexStack-Plus and FlexStack-Extended capability, and LAN Base Cisco IOS software. FlexStack-Plus enables up to eight switches in the same series to be stacked and can produce 80 Gbps of stack throughput. You’ll also enjoy a range of network security features, including MAC-based VLAN enabling, IPv6 First-Hop Security, Cisco TRUSTSec, comprehensive 802.1X features for network access control, private VLANs, and much more. All models in the Cisco 2960-X Series offer web UI, Bluetooth access, and USB and Ethernet managed interfaces. Of course, when you buy a refurbished WS-C2960X-48FPD-L switch, you’ll get the same high-quality networking equipment at a much lower price.

Fully managed, the 2960X-48FPD-L switches provides advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 features and PoE+ power.
Designed with networking security in mind, the 2960X sereis provides security features such as MAC-based VLAN assignment, Cisco TrustSEec, Comprehensive 802.1X features, IPv6 First-Hop Security, Cisco Trust Anchor Technology, Cisco Threat Defense, Private VLANs and VLAN Edge, Spanning Tree Root Guard and many more securty features.
With Enahnced QoS the 2960X series provides intelligent traffic management, and QoS features including: eight egress queues, Shape Round Robin and Weighted Tail Drop, Flow-based rate limting, Cross-stack QoS, Cisco Committed Information Rate, and Rate Limiting.
Switching Database Manager templates are included with the 2960X-48FPD-L LAN base swtich. This allows athe administrator to optimize the TCAM allocation based on MAC, routing, security, and QoS scalability numbers.
