Cisco C2960X DNA Essentials 48-Port 3-Year License | Network Access — C2960X-DNA-E-48-3Y

Maintain control over access switching with Cisco DNA Essentials for 48-port Catalyst 2960-X deployments. This 3-year term license is built for organizations that want predictable software coverage, clearer lifecycle planning, and a more structured approach to managing campus access infrastructure. For network teams, DNA Essentials helps standardize day-to-day operations across supported switches by tying software capabilities to a defined term. That makes it easier to plan refresh cycles, align support windows, and keep configuration and policy management on a consistent footing. For procurement, the fixed term simplifies budgeting and reduces ambiguity around renewal timing. This license is a strong fit when you need dependable feature access for a large access-layer footprint without overbuying capabilities you will not use. It supports environments where operational discipline matters: branch offices, campus closets, and distributed access networks that depend on stable switching behavior and clear software entitlement. If your team is standardizing on Cisco Catalyst 2960-X hardware, this license helps keep the platform aligned with a known software path for three years.
