Cisco WS-C2960PD-8TT-L Catalyst

WS-C2960PD-8TT-L Overview

The Cisco WS-C2960PD-8TT-L Catalyst switch is a compact and efficient network device designed for small to medium-sized enterprise environments. It provides essential Layer 2 switching functionalities, enabling seamless communication between connected devices while ensuring ease of use and deployment.

This model is equipped with 8 Ethernet 10/100 ports and 1 10/100/1000 PoE (Power over Ethernet) input port, allowing it to deliver both data and power to compatible devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras through a single Ethernet cable. The PoE capability is particularly beneficial for organizations looking to simplify their network infrastructure by reducing the need for separate power sources.

The WS-C2960PD-8TT-L is designed with a compact form factor, making it suitable for environments with limited space, such as wiring closets or small offices. The fanless design contributes to its quiet operation, reducing noise pollution in workspaces. Additionally, the inclusion of a magnet allows for flexible mounting options, enabling users to securely attach the switch to various surfaces.

For power management, it is important to note that the power adaptor (PWR-A=) and power cord are sold separately, allowing organizations to choose the appropriate power supply based on their specific needs and configurations. This flexibility is advantageous for deployments that require tailored power solutions.

The switch operates with a LAN Base image, which includes essential features such as VLAN support for traffic segmentation, basic security features, and simple management options. This software foundation ensures that users can implement reliable and efficient network solutions without the complexity often associated with higher-tiered models.
