Cisco Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE PoE 740W, 4 x 1G SFP | LAN Base — CON-L1NBD-WSC296FP

Keep access-layer traffic moving with a Cisco Catalyst 2960-X configuration built for high-port-density edge networks. With 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE ports and a 740 W power budget, it can support phones, access points, and other powered endpoints from a single switch footprint. Four 1G SFP uplinks provide fiber connectivity for upstream aggregation or longer cable runs where copper is not practical. This LAN Base model is a practical fit for organizations that want dependable campus switching without moving into features they do not need. It is designed for branch offices, wiring closets, and distributed enterprise environments where uptime, predictable behavior, and straightforward management matter more than feature sprawl. The PoE budget helps reduce the need for separate power injectors, while the SFP uplinks preserve deployment flexibility across mixed media environments. For teams standardizing on Cisco access switching, this model offers a clear balance of port count, power delivery, and uplink options. It is the kind of switch you deploy when the network must stay quiet, consistent, and easy to support.
