Managed switch Cisco WS-C2960X-24TS-L L2/L3 Gigabit Ethernet 24 poorten

The Cisco Catalyst 2960X-24TS-L is a fixed-configuration, stackable Gigabit Ethernet network switch designed for campus and branch access. It runs on Cisco IOS Software and supports straightforward device and network management while providing advanced Layer 2 and basic Layer 3 functionality. The switch can be deployed where enhanced application visibility, reliability, and resiliency are required; PoE+ is available as an optional feature on compatible models.

Advantages

The Catalyst 2960X-24TS-L delivers enterprise-class access with stackable design for simplified scaling and management. Its Cisco IOS Software support enables familiar management and configuration workflows. The device provides enhanced application visibility and improved network reliability and resiliency compared with basic unmanaged switches. Optional PoE+ capability allows powering compatible endpoints without separate power supplies.
