Cisco Catalyst 2960-XR 48 GigE PoE 740W 2x10G SFP | IP Lite — CON-SSSNP-38012SK9

Build a stronger access layer with the Catalyst 2960-XR configured for high port density, PoE delivery, and 10G uplinks. With 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE ports and 740 W of available power, this switch is suited for environments where many endpoints need both data and power from a single access layer device. The 2 x 10G SFP uplinks give you a cleaner path to upstream aggregation, helping preserve bandwidth as access traffic grows. That matters in offices, classrooms, and distributed sites where voice, video, wireless, and security devices all compete for the same network edge. IP Lite capability adds a practical routing and access feature set for teams that want more control without moving to a heavier switching platform. This model is a strong fit when you need more than basic connectivity. It is designed for deployments where port count, PoE budget, and uplink capacity must be balanced carefully to avoid bottlenecks and reduce the need for early refreshes. For infrastructure teams, that translates into fewer compromises at the access layer and a more durable network foundation. Ideal For Campus access switching for wired endpoints and VoIP phones PoE deployments for wireless access points and security cameras Edge aggregation in branch offices with 10G uplink requirements Network closets that need high port density and centralized power delivery Why This Product 1 Higher PoE budget than basic access switches 2 10G uplinks reduce aggregation constraints 3 48-port density supports larger endpoint counts 4 IP Lite adds more control than entry-level switching
