WS-C2960CX-8TC-L Catalyst 2960-CX 8-Port Gigabit Managed Switch – LAN Base
The Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960CX-8TC-L is an ultra-compact, enterprise-class Layer 2 managed switch featuring 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2 dual-purpose uplink ports (SFP or copper). Designed for modern IT environments that require high performance, energy efficiency, and flexible deployment, this fanless switch is ideal for space-constrained installations such as small offices, hotel wiring closets, retail branches, and classrooms. Running Cisco’s LAN Base software, it supports robust security, QoS, and traffic management capabilities to maintain smooth, secure connectivity for critical devices and applications. Whether you’re extending your LAN to the edge or need a quiet, reliable switch close to users or IoT devices, the WS-C2960CX-8TC-L offers a powerful solution in a compact form factor.
Features :
The WS-C2960CX-8TC-L is part of Cisco’s next-generation compact Catalyst 2960-CX series, engineered to deliver wired Gigabit performance with maximum deployment flexibility. With 8 auto-sensing 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and 2 combo uplinks (1G SFP or 1G RJ-45), it efficiently aggregates access points, IP phones, surveillance devices, and user workstations.
Advanced Options :
Its silent, fanless design makes it perfect for deployments in open offices, quiet zones, and customer-facing areas. Running on the Cisco IOS LAN Base image, this switch provides support for Layer 2 switching, VLANs, Spanning Tree Protocol, and robust QoS for traffic prioritization. Security features such as 802.1X port-based authentication and dynamic ARP inspection ensure user and data safety at the network edge. Installation is easy thanks to flexible mounting options—wall, desk, DIN rail, or under-desk—making it ideal for limited-space environments. With a switching capacity of 16 Gbps and forwarding rate of 41.7 Mpps, it delivers smooth, uninterrupted performance for business-critical applications. The WS-C2960CX-8TC-L is also energy efficient, supporting Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and Cisco EnergyWise, which reduce operational costs by lowering power usage.
