WS-C2918-24TC-C is a managed Layer 2 access switch with 24 Fast Ethernet ports and two fixed Gigabit combo uplinks, each providing a choice of copper or SFP connectivity. The Cisco Catalyst 2918 configuration occupies one rack unit and provides data connections without PoE output. The discontinued WS-C2918-24TT-C differs by providing copper-only uplinks.

16 Gbps switching capacity handles the internal switching path. 6.5 Mpps forwarding applies to 64-byte packets. WS-C2918-24TC-C provides 64 MB of DRAM, 32 MB of flash and capacity for 8000 MAC entries. LACP supports link aggregation, while STP provides loop control. The Catalyst 2918-24TC-C uses fan cooling, so installation must preserve ventilation clearance.
WS-C2918-24TC-C is available new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units; 30-day returns apply to every condition, subject to terms. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with every port linking at rated speed, optics bay recognition checked, firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity, destination power cord and required optics before placing the order. For enterprise and volume purchases, POs are accepted, Net-30 is available for government, and RMA includes advance replacement; regional stock and RMA support cover UK, EU, US and MEA.

When an existing estate uses Simplified Chinese administration, interface language becomes a purchasing requirement. The Catalyst 2918 has Simplified Chinese panel labeling and a graphical interface. Confirm administrator acceptance of that language and the existing configuration workflow before issuing a multisite PO.
When replacing hardware without renewing branch cabling, qualify the retained runs before allocating installation labor. Copper connections have a 100 m endpoint-distance limit, and 100BASE-TX requires Category 5 or better cabling. Check run lengths, termination condition and negotiation settings before specifying installation scope.
Gigabit connectivity on every access port
WS-C2918-24TC-C limits its 24 access ports to 10/100 Mbps. Gigabit connectivity is available through the two uplinks, not across the endpoint ports.
PoE output for connected endpoints
WS-C2918-24TC-C provides data-only Ethernet connections without PoE output. Phones and wireless access points requiring Ethernet-delivered power need a separate power solution.

WS-C2918-24TC-C identifies a Catalyst 2918 configuration with 24 Fast Ethernet access ports and two dual-purpose Gigabit uplinks. WS-C2918 identifies the family, 24 gives the access-port count, and TC corresponds to the copper-or-SFP uplink arrangement in a fixed 1U chassis.
Catalyst 2918 management uses the Device Manager web UI, Cisco IOS CLI through the console or remote Telnet and SSHv2, CiscoView, and SNMP. CiscoView is purchased separately. The graphical interface uses Simplified Chinese, which should match the intended administration workflow.
WS-C2918-24TC-C is discontinued. End of sale was October 22, 2015, and Cisco support ended October 31, 2020. Both milestones are past, so purchases require service arrangements independent of active Cisco support.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2918-24TC-C new sealed and certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Returns are available for 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original Limited Lifetime hardware warranty ended with Cisco service on October 31, 2020.
WS-C2918-24TC-C can use only one connector per combo uplink at a time. When both connectors are connected, the SFP connection takes priority.
WS-C2918-24TC-C uses its internal AC supply with 100-240V AC input and 30W maximum consumption. The chassis has no external redundant-power connector.
WS-C2918-24TC-C does not supply PoE. Connected phones and wireless access points must receive power independently of the switch's Ethernet data connections.
WS-C2918-24TC-C can fail to boot during a power cycle after approximately 24 months of continuous operation because of memory failure. The issue does not interrupt ongoing operation.
WS-C2918-24TC-C provides copper-or-SFP Gigabit uplinks; WS-C2918-24TT-C provides copper-only Gigabit uplinks. Both are discontinued. The former matches legacy fiber connections, while the latter matches copper-only installations.
WS-C2918-48TC-C provides 48 Fast Ethernet access ports where WS-C2918-24TC-C provides 24. Both are discontinued. Match the required legacy endpoint count when choosing between these configurations.
