FAQs

Q: What is the total PoE budget and how is it distributed across ports?
A: The WS-C2960X-48FPD-L provides 740W total PoE+ budget. It can deliver up to 30W per port (802.3at PoE+) on 24 ports simultaneously, or 15.4W per port (802.3af PoE) across all 48 ports, depending on your powered device requirements.

Q: Can this switch be stacked with other Catalyst 2960 models?
A: Yes, the WS-C2960X-48FPD-L supports Cisco FlexStack-Plus technology, allowing stacking with up to 8 Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base switches for 160 Gbps stack bandwidth. It can also stack with up to 4 Catalyst 2960-S LAN Base switches using mixed stacking for backward compatibility.

Q: What software license does this switch include?
A: This model ships with LAN Base software, which includes Layer 2 switching, advanced QoS, security features, IPv4/IPv6 routing (static and RIP), and NetFlow Lite. LAN Base does not require a separate software license and is included with the switch.

Q: Is redundant power supply supported on this model?
A: Yes, the WS-C2960X-48FPD-L supports the optional Cisco Redundant Power System 2300 (RPS 2300) for enhanced power redundancy in mission-critical deployments. The RPS is sold separately.

Q: What are typical use cases for this switch?
A: Ideal for enterprise access layer deployments powering IP phones, wireless access points, security cameras, and workstations. The 740W PoE budget and 10G uplinks make it well-suited for high-density unified communications, wireless networks, and IP surveillance installations requiring reliable high-speed connectivity.
