About the Cisco Catalyst 2960 WS-C2960X-48TS-L Cisco Catalyst switch

The Cisco Catalyst 2960 WS-C2960X-48TS-L is a compact, fixed-power managed switch engineered for access-layer deployments where operational simplicity meets reliable performance. With 48 × 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet downlink ports, 4 × 1G SFP dual-purpose uplink ports, and a switching capacity of 176 Gbps, this Layer 2 managed device delivers a forwarding rate of 130.95 Mpps across a 16,000-entry MAC address table. Running Cisco IOS LAN Base software, the WS-C2960X-48TS-L combines 512 MB of DRAM and 128 MB of flash memory to support stable, feature-rich operations in standardized network environments without unnecessary complexity.

Network engineers and IT procurement teams select the Catalyst 2960-X series for branch offices, campus access closets, and small-to-mid sized enterprise LAN segments where cost efficiency and proven reliability matter more than cutting-edge density. The switch's 1U rack-mountable form factor (44.5 mm × 445 mm × 286 mm, weighing 3.91 kg) fits standard infrastructure racks, while its internal fixed power supply (100–240V AC, 32.6 W typical consumption) eliminates redundancy overhead and lowers deployment complexity. Optional Cisco FlexStack-Plus stacking capability allows up to 8 units with a combined stack bandwidth of 80 Gbps, enabling clean horizontal scaling without additional control modules. Operating reliably between 0–45°C, this switch adapts to diverse environments from air-conditioned data centers to temperature-controlled server rooms.

Omnixon Global stocks the Cisco Catalyst 2960 WS-C2960X-48TS-L as a trusted access-layer solution for customers across the UAE and broader Middle East region.
