About this product

Product Information

Ditch ancient architecture and provide business users and staff members with a network to be proud of by using the Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series of intelligent Ethernet switches. With a 1.7-inch thick housing, these spanning tree protocol switches remain a versatile product. Use several different authentication methods, including Secure Shell (SSH), RADIUS, and TACACS+, so that you can remain securely connected always. These series of switches have an operational power consumption of only 22 watts, so you know these Cisco Systems won't draw much power.The Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960G-8tC-L model is a powerful standalone switch that provides desktop connectivity. Add routers to your LAN configuration along with other accessories, and this networking hub or switch will layer the protocol without any delays down the line. Take one look at the 8 switches that you can plug into along the front panel of the Catalyst switch. These ports support several different cabling types, such as Ethernet 10Base-T, 1000Base-T, and Ethernet 100Base-TX. With a MAC address size of 8,000 entries, configuring the Cisco Catalyst switch will be a fast process.These advanced series of Cisco switches provide sophisticated access control lists and superior security to the edge of the networking setup. This type of gigabit Ethernet switch has an SSL encryption algorithm that prevents anyone from accessing restricted files. These security measures, however, don't take away from the easy manageability of the 2960G-8TC module because the ports can be remotely accessed. Use HTTP, SNMP, Telnet, TFTP, SSH, RMON, or HTTPS protocols to alter any router or power uplink attached to the switch.In fact, dual-purpose uplinks provide flexibility, allowing for the use of either copper or fiber uplinks in your Catalyst series installation grid. You even have a female interface connection with an SFP or mini-GBIC connector, too. Whether you use this Cisco Catalyst switch as a base or link in an electronic chain, you'll experience SFP-based speed and power during every computation.Integrated Cisco security software ensures that the system is resilient regarding data integrity. Security is further enhanced because this WS-C2960G-8TC-L series of switches is entirely hard-wired to your system. It's not possible to connect through a wireless pathway and compromise data.Auto-configuration of specialized applications is also extremely easy using Cisco Smartports. Log into your corporate account, and you can access the 2960G-8TC-L with any PC computer in a branch office. You'll appreciate the speed with which the software and hardware operate because the system configuration takes mere moments with Cisco Network Assistant software.Whether your networks are full of multiple Catalyst switches or an extra power supply, don't worry about any heat issues because this product comes with a maximum operating temperature of 104 degrees Fahrenheit. It also has a nearly 11-inch depth so that the vents can easily offset the warmth by releasing it from the all-metal housing. There are no fans necessary in these compact Catalyst series switches either so noise levels are always kept to a minimum.

  • Good value for a solid switch

    The 2960 is an extremely popular switch for a reason. Great feature set, no fan, very solid. At this price the value is tremendous. These are an industrial strength product with all of the goodness of their big brothers in a small form factor. This model can even do basic layer 3 routing. Mine shipped with no application code loaded - so be sure to have a console cable and know how to find a good firmware on Cisco’s web site (not as easy as it sounds), and how to load it over xmodem. The IOS12.2 version is probably the one you want. The 15 version was flakey for me on this model.

  • Cost effective smart switch

    This is a professional level smart switch with years of useful life remaining. This version of the 2960 has 8 gigabit ports - not the 100 mbps fast Ethernet on some models, an advantage for our LAN. You can just plug it into your LAN an use it as a simple switch or access the console and configure the management features. Either way it is a deal.

  • Little switch with big features

    This is a great little switch! It a managed switch and looks a feels like its big brothers, just with 8 ports. It evern has a SFP option for the fiber link you've always wanted. I'm replacing my cheep gigabit switches with this name brand horkhorse.

  • Fanless, powerful, and small

    If you are looking for a small manageable gigabit switch to extend VLANs - whether it's for real network work or for LAN gaming - this is your best bet: silent, powerful, extensible (supports even v15 IOS code), and since it's manageable - via console, telnet/SSH, or even web interface - you can monitor, tweak, etc. to your hearts content. I use one for my entertainment console to patch back to my layer-3 core switch, and one for my main PC for a quad-port card I use for VMs. I wouldn't waste my time with bargain-basement gigabit hubs / unmanaged switches again: they just create landfill.

  • Does everything I need

    This switch exactly matches my requirements. It is small, so does not take up much desk space. I don't need a large number of switchports. Also it is silent, as there is no fan. Another bonus is that it came with a relatively new IOS installed.

  • Great home lab switch

    I am using this switch for my intel Nuc home lab. The switch supports VLANs and is silent because it is fanless.

  • Nice and QUIET

    One of the best things about 2960G-8TC-L is that it's fanless. It's the only enterprise class access switch Cisco makes that is. LIke a lot of network admins we prefer to run the same type or brand of equipment at home that we do at work, but, unless we have a nice insulated data closet or IDF at the house, the fan noise from even one switch or router is enough to put the kibosh on the whole idea. This little gem is perfect. It appears to work quite well as an air-cooled unit. Just don't crowd it and leave a couple of inches free space around it for airflow. It won't run advanced IP services, but it is compatible with release 15.0.2-SE9 IP BASE, which is the most recent as of this writing. I replaced one of my noisy old WS-C2950-12's with this one and I'm *very* happy with the result. In fact, I'm going to add another one to my network.

  • Fanless Gigabit Switch

    Switch is awesome. Gigabit and fanless Enterprise grade hardware. Currently attached to a pfsense Box in a ROAS configuration it's switching frames flawlessly. Might get another just because.

  • Sweet sound of success!

    Just what I needed to improve my audio system ethernet connection. Cisco is known for building quality products and this model certainly meets that standard. I separately purchased a compatible SMTP device and ran a fiber cable to my music server area were a separate device converted it back to ethernet. Not a night and day result but a noticeable improvement indeed.

  • Awesome CIsco Switch

    The switches are very small, fast, light weight and quiet yet they have all the functionality of bigger switches. The IOS was upgraded to have more update network functions. I’m extremely happy with the switches and I would definitely recommend them.
