Cisco Catalyst 2960L 24 porte GigE 4 x 10G SFP+ Switch gestito LAN Lite

The Cisco Catalyst 2960L 24 port GigE 4 x 10G SFP+ LAN Lite is a managed Layer 2 switch designed for small to medium-sized businesses and enterprise branch offices. It offers 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks, providing high-speed connectivity and flexibility for network expansion. With PoE+ support and a power budget of 195 W, it can power devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras directly from the switch. The switch runs Cisco IOS LAN Lite software, delivering essential features like VLANs, security, and QoS.

Advantages

This switch combines affordability with enterprise-grade reliability. Its 10G uplinks ensure future-proof connectivity, while PoE+ simplifies deployment by eliminating separate power sources for endpoints. The compact 1U form factor saves rack space, and the fanless design (typical noise 35.1 dBA) makes it suitable for quiet office environments. Advanced security features like 802.1X, port security, and DHCP snooping protect the network from unauthorized access.

Suitable for

• Small to medium business networks requiring high-performance switching
• Enterprise branch offices needing reliable Layer 2 connectivity
• Deployments with PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras, phones, and access points
