This refurbished Cisco WS-C2960+24TC-S switch offers reliable Layer 2 connectivity in a cost-effective format, ideal for entry-level enterprise or departmental deployments. Featuring 24 Fast Ethernet ports and two uplink interfaces (supporting either SFP or Gigabit Ethernet), the switch is a practical solution for static access layer designs or network edge applications.
Built with Cisco's LAN Lite IOS, it enables basic VLAN segmentation, Layer 2 switching, link aggregation, and SNMP-managed visibility for easy network administration. Its low power consumption, fanless design, and high MTBF rating make it ideal for always-on environments such as classrooms, point-of-sale setups, and administrative offices.
Key Features & Benefits
24 x 10/100 Ethernet Ports Reliable connectivity for desktops, printers, IP phones, and cameras in a small network.
2 x Dual-Purpose Uplinks Offers flexibility between SFP fiber modules and RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet links for uplinking to core switches.
LAN Lite IOS Includes VLAN support, QoS tagging, and broadcast control without full Layer 3 overhead.
Compact and Efficient Low power draw and low heat output; operates quietly at just 33 dBA typical.
Intelligent Diagnostics Supports Cisco cable diagnostics, loop detection, and remote management via SNMPv3 and RMON.
RPS Connector Redundant power supply support with Cisco RPS 2300 for additional uptime resilience.
Ideal Uses
Equipping branch offices or satellite campuses with reliable Layer 2 switching and uplink flexibility.
Connecting wired clients in administrative or classroom environments with structured VLANs and static routing upstream.
Powering low-traffic server racks or distribution closets where PoE is not required.
Replacing legacy hubs or unmanaged switches in IT closets that require monitoring, SNMP alerts, and performance logging.
