Cisco Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE PoE 370W, 2 x 10G SFP | LAN Base — CON-SNTP-C9274P

Maintain reliable access-layer performance where uptime matters most. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE PoE switch delivers 48 copper Gigabit Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet support, a 370 W PoE budget, and 2 x 10G SFP uplinks for upstream connectivity. It is designed for campus networks that need consistent wired access for phones, access points, cameras, and desktops without adding unnecessary complexity. LAN Base capability keeps the feature set focused on core switching needs while still supporting the controls and segmentation required in enterprise edge environments. The 10G SFP uplinks help prevent bottlenecks as edge traffic grows, while the PoE budget supports a broad mix of powered devices from a single switch. That combination makes this model a practical fit for organizations standardizing on dependable access switching with clear operational boundaries. For teams comparing options, the value is in the balance: enough PoE capacity for dense endpoint deployments, uplinks sized for aggregation, and Cisco access-layer pedigree that fits long-lived infrastructure plans. It is a strong choice when the goal is to keep critical users and devices connected with minimal disruption. Ideal For Campus access switching for wired user and device connectivity PoE deployment for IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras Branch closet aggregation with 10 GbE uplinks to distribution Standardized enterprise edge refresh where predictable switching is required Why This Product 1 Higher PoE headroom than basic access switches with 370 W budget 2 Faster uplink path than 1 GbE-only models with 2 x 10G SFP 3 Better fit for dense endpoint closets with 48 PoE ports 4 More suitable for enterprise campus use than unmanaged switches
