Cisco Catalyst 2960-XR 48 GigE PoE 740W 2x10G SFP | Enterprise Switch — CON-UCSD1-HX20M5SX

Keep access networks organized and powered with the Cisco Catalyst 2960-XR built for dense endpoint environments. Its 48 GigE PoE ports and 740 W power budget support phones, access points, cameras, and other PoE devices from a single switch, reducing the need for external power hardware. Two 10G SFP uplinks give the switch a stronger path to aggregation or distribution layers, helping prevent bottlenecks when many users and devices share the same access block. That makes it a practical fit for campus closets, branch offices, and standardized enterprise rollouts where predictable behavior matters. IP Lite support positions the platform for organizations that want Cisco access-layer capabilities without moving into a more complex feature set. For teams comparing options, this model stands out when port density, PoE capacity, and uplink flexibility need to be balanced against budget and operational simplicity.
