Cisco Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE PoE 740W, 2 x 10G SFP | LAN Base — SP-AR3-ISR4321K

Sustain dense access-layer deployments with the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X configured for 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE ports and a 740 W power budget. It is built for environments that need predictable wired access, powered endpoints, and uplink capacity without moving to a more complex switching tier. Two 10G SFP uplinks give you a cleaner path to distribution or core connections, helping prevent access-layer congestion as endpoint counts rise. LAN Base licensing keeps the feature set focused on the switching functions most campus teams need for stable day-to-day operations. This model fits organizations standardizing on Cisco access switching and looking for a practical balance of port density, PoE headroom, and uplink speed. It is a strong choice when you need to support phones, cameras, and wireless infrastructure from a single rack unit while keeping the network simple to operate. Ideal For Campus access switching for desks, printers, and VoIP phones PoE deployment for IP cameras and wireless access points Network closet aggregation with 10 GbE uplinks Standardized Cisco access layer in branch offices Why This Product 1 Higher PoE budget than entry access switches 2 10 GbE uplinks reduce distribution bottlenecks 3 Cisco LAN Base suits standard campus operations 4 48-port density supports larger edge deployments
