(AS - IS ) Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) Switch with 4x 1 Gigabit SFP Uplink Ports. Front-to-Back Airflow. P/N: WS-C2960X-24TS-L.

This is a genuine Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) Switch (P/N: WS-C2960X-24TS-L, 68-100473-02). Designed for enterprise access layer deployments, the Catalyst 2960-X series offers enhanced reliability, security, and energy efficiency compared to its predecessors. This model features 24 10/100/1000BASE-T (RJ-45) Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-density wired connectivity, along with 4 1 Gigabit SFP uplink ports for flexible fiber connections to the distribution layer or other network devices. Running on Cisco IOS LAN Base software, the WS-C2960X-24TS-L provides advanced Layer 2 switching, basic static Layer 3 routing, and intelligent network management, making it an ideal choice for connecting workstations, IP phones, and other network endpoints. It typically employs Front-to-Back (Port-to-Power) Airflow, suitable for standard network closet and data center environments.
