Product Review

The Cisco WS-C2960S-24PD-L offers 24 Ethernet interfaces and two SFP+ uplink interfaces, supporting high-speed connections and efficient network expansion. However, with only a LAN Base IOS Software Feature Set and limited DRAM and flash memory (128 MB and 64 MB, respectively), it may not meet the demands of more complex network environments requiring advanced features and greater memory capacity. Additionally, the switch provides a substantial PoE power budget of 370 W and high forwarding rates, ensuring reliable performance for connected devices and traffic management.

Overview

The Cisco WS-C2960S-24PD-L is a networking switch designed for enterprise level networks requiring high performance, reliability, and energy efficiency. This switch comes with 24 10/100/1000 Ethernet interfaces and 2 SFP+ uplink interfaces, providing a solid foundation for applications requiring high bandwidth. The device operates on the LAN Base Cisco IOS software feature set, offering a range of network management and security features. This model is equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities, with an available PoE power budget of 370 W. This allows for the direct power supply to connected devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras, eliminating the need for separate power sources for these devices. The forwarding rate of the switch is 65.5 Mpps (million packets per second) with a forwarding bandwidth of 88 Gbps and a switching bandwidth of 176 Gbps, ensuring swift data transfer across the network. The Cisco WS-C2960S-24PD-L supports up to 255 active VLANs and provides for up to 4000 VLAN IDs, facilitating network segmentation and enhancing security. It also supports jumbo frames up to 9216 bytes, allowing for more efficient data processing and transfer over the network. A notable feature is the optional FlexStack stacking, which enables the linking of multiple switches into a single, managed unit, simplifying network administration and enhancing performance. With a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 237,016 hours, this switch is built for longevity, ensuring a reliable network foundation. The device is equipped with 128 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash memory, providing sufficient capacity for firmware and network configurations. The physical dimensions of the Cisco WS-C2960S-24PD-L are 1.75 x 17.5 x 15.2 inches, and it weighs 12.5 lbs, making it suitable for rack mounting in a standard 19-inch rack. Its operating sound levels are moderate, with a sound pressure of 42 dB and a sound power of 5.2 B, minimizing noise in work environments. Key specifications include: - Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for Layer 3 packets is 9198 bytes. - Operating conditions are broad, supporting a minimum operating temperature of -5 °C and a maximum of 40 °C at an altitude of up to 3000m. It can be stored in temperatures ranging from -25 °C to 70 °C. - Humidity tolerance ranges from 10% to 95% non-condensing, ensuring performance in various environmental conditions. This switch's design caters to businesses seeking to enhance their network's performance and reliability without significant power consumption. Its comprehensive feature set, coupled with Cisco's renowned reliability, makes the WS-C2960S-24PD-L a suitable choice for organizations aiming to optimize their network infrastructure for performance and durability.
