Cisco Catalyst 2960-CX 8-Port PoE LAN Base | Compact Access Switch — CON-OS-C9115HXE

Put reliable access switching closer to the devices that depend on it. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-CX 8-port PoE switch is designed for compact environments that still need managed control, Power over Ethernet, and Cisco access-layer consistency. It fits naturally in branch offices, small wiring spaces, and edge closets where a full-size switch would be unnecessary. LAN Base management gives network teams the control expected from a business-class access switch, while PoE support simplifies deployment for phones, wireless access points, and other powered endpoints. That reduces the need for separate power runs and helps keep edge installations cleaner and easier to service. This model is a strong choice when the network needs more than basic connectivity. It brings Cisco switching discipline to small footprints, giving procurement teams a platform that supports operational standards without overbuying capacity. For organizations standardizing access-layer hardware across distributed sites, the 2960-CX offers a compact, controlled, and cost-conscious way to extend the network.
