WS-C2950-24 provides managed Layer 2 access through 24 fixed RJ-45 ports running at 10/100 Mbps, without PoE output or dedicated uplinks. Its fixed 1U rack chassis belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series and runs Standard Image for basic workgroup data, voice and video connectivity. An upstream connection uses the same copper interfaces available to endpoints, so the purchase must match a Fast Ethernet installation rather than a Gigabit access requirement. The discontinued WS-C2950SX-24 differs by adding two fixed 1000BASE-SX uplinks. For a copper-only legacy replacement, the defining configuration is the base model without fiber interfaces or an uplink module bay.

8.8 Gbps switching capacity carries traffic across the switching fabric, while 3.6 Mpps forwarding handles minimum-size Ethernet frames at the access interfaces. WS-C2950-24 provides 16 MB of DRAM and 8 MB of flash for its operating software and saved configuration. An 8000-entry MAC table sets the address-learning scale, and the shared 8 MB packet buffer serves the Ethernet ports. LACP and PAgP support link aggregation; STP and PVST+ control Layer 2 loop behavior. IGMP snooping limits multicast delivery to interested receivers, while four egress queues support CoS-based traffic prioritization. The Catalyst 2950-24 leaves inter-VLAN routing to separate routing hardware. Its 30W maximum draw informs AC load planning rather than endpoint power allocation.
WS-C2950-24 is offered by ORM Systems in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity and the required power connection on the order: ORM's new-unit warranty is up to a 3-year extended term, certified refurbished coverage is up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days on every condition, with terms applying. POs are accepted, Net-30 is available for government, and RMA includes advance replacement; specify quantities and delivery schedules for enterprise and volume orders.

When a lab must reproduce an existing VLAN configuration before replacing production hardware, the 64-VLAN limit determines whether the configuration fits. Keep the staging purchase tied to the configuration being retained rather than a new feature requirement. Confirm the VLAN inventory and saved configuration before specifying the order.
When a maintenance purchase must replenish spares for sites in the UK, EU, US or MEA, regional stock and RMA handling become procurement requirements. ORM Systems supports those regions. Separate replacement quantities from staging quantities, then specify the required condition, delivery region and allocation for each site on the PO.
Gigabit connections for attached endpoints
WS-C2950-24 access interfaces stop at 100 Mbps. A software change cannot make those interfaces Gigabit-capable, so the existing endpoint speed requirement must remain within that hardware limit.
Power delivery to connected endpoints
WS-C2950-24 does not supply PoE through its Ethernet ports. Phones, access points and other powered endpoints require independent power arrangements rather than power supplied by this switch.
Dedicated fiber or Gigabit uplinks
WS-C2950-24 has neither dedicated fiber uplinks nor Gigabit uplink interfaces. Upstream traffic uses its copper Fast Ethernet ports, and the chassis has no removable uplink module bay.
On-switch inter-VLAN IP routing
WS-C2950-24 provides Layer 2 switching rather than inter-VLAN IP routing. Traffic between IP subnets must pass through separate routing hardware rather than being routed by this switch.

WS-C2950-24 identifies a Catalyst 2950 managed, fixed-configuration switch with 24 10/100 Mbps ports and Standard Image software. WS-C2950 identifies the switch family, while -24 identifies the access-port count. The complete part number selects the base copper configuration without a separate uplink designation or software-image suffix.
WS-C2950-24 is managed through Cisco CMS in a web browser, the Cisco IOS CLI through its console or Telnet, and SNMP tools including CiscoWorks. Select the management method before staging, then prepare the required console connection or management addressing rather than expecting an unmanaged, configuration-free installation.
WS-C2950-24 belongs to the retired Catalyst 2950 series, and Cisco support has ended. New sealed stock does not restart the product's service lifecycle. A purchase for continued operation should therefore be treated as a legacy-hardware purchase, not as a route to active Cisco support.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2950-24 new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Returns are available for 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original Limited Lifetime warranty has ended with Cisco service.
No, WS-C2950-24 supports Standard Image only and cannot run Enhanced Image. A requirement for the additional feature set therefore changes the hardware requirement, not merely the software purchase. When replacing an existing unit, identify the required image and configuration features before treating another family member as equivalent.
No, WS-C2950-24 has 24 copper Fast Ethernet interfaces without additional dedicated uplink ports or a removable uplink module bay. Reserve copper interfaces for upstream connections when preparing the port allocation. A purchase requiring separate fiber or Gigabit uplinks does not match this base configuration.
Yes, Catalyst 2950 switches support Cisco CMS management clusters containing 16 interconnected switches, with an option to use one IP address for the cluster. Management clustering is not hardware stacking. Prepare the inter-switch Ethernet connections and cluster addressing separately rather than specifying dedicated stack adapters for the base model.
WS-C2950-24 supports external backup power through PWR300-AC-RPS-N1 rather than a second internal supply. The switch normally uses its built-in AC supply; PWR300-AC-RPS-N1 feeds the DC backup connector. If backup power is required, specify PWR300-AC-RPS-N1 and confirm the connection arrangement before completing the purchase order.
No, WS-C2950-24 performs Layer 2 switching rather than inter-VLAN IP routing. VLAN separation and Ethernet switching remain functions of the switch, while traffic between subnets requires separate routing hardware. Confirm where the existing installation performs routing before replacing an access switch or changing its VLAN configuration.
WS-C2950-24 has 24 10/100 ports, while WS-C2950-12 has 12 ports at the same access speed. Both are discontinued Standard Image models. The former suits a legacy replacement requiring more connections; the latter matches an existing lower-density configuration, not a speed upgrade.
WS-C2950SX-24 adds two fixed 1000BASE-SX uplinks that WS-C2950-24 lacks. Both are discontinued Standard Image models. The fiber-uplink model matches a legacy fiber-connected installation; WS-C2950-24 matches a copper-only replacement requirement. State the upstream connection requirement explicitly when identifying which older configuration an existing installation requires.
WS-C2950C-24 runs Enhanced Image, whereas WS-C2950-24 runs Standard Image. Both belong to the discontinued Catalyst 2950 family. Enhanced Image matches legacy configurations requiring its additional feature set; Standard Image matches basic workgroup configurations. The required software feature set distinguishes these models independently of their access-port count.
