Managed Workgroup Connectivity for Small Business Networks

WS-C2950T-24 is a managed Layer 2 access switch with 24 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports and two fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T copper uplinks. Its non-PoE configuration connects separately powered endpoints, while the full-width chassis occupies one rack unit. The Catalyst 2950T-24 uses Enhanced Image software for traffic policing, security filtering, and differentiated traffic handling. The discontinued WS-C2950-24 instead uses Standard Image software. Within the Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series, this configuration combines Fast Ethernet endpoint connections with Gigabit copper connections to upstream equipment or servers. The uplinks are built into the chassis rather than provided by an interchangeable network module, so the purchase does not require an uplink card or optical transceivers.

Technical Details

13.6 Gbps switching fabric provides the internal switching architecture, while 8.8 Gbps maximum forwarding bandwidth describes this model's traffic capacity. 6.6 Mpps forwarding handles minimum-size packets. Four egress queues per port separate traffic priorities, with Weighted Round Robin scheduling and a strict-priority queue for time-sensitive traffic. The embedded hardware includes 16 MB DRAM, 8 MB flash, and an 8 MB shared packet-memory architecture. WS-C2950T-24 supports console access, CLI sessions over SSH or Telnet, SNMP, and browser-based Cisco Cluster Management Suite administration. PVST+, VTP, and PAgP support switched-network configuration; TACACS+ controls administrative access, and IGMP snooping directs multicast traffic toward interested receivers. These switching and security functions do not make the device an inter-VLAN router. 30W maximum consumption provides an electrical-load figure for cabinet planning without an endpoint-power allocation.

Ordering

Specify WS-C2950T-24 in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, and include the quantity plus required power and mounting accessories on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, and PSU status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, and 30-day returns on every condition, with terms applying; Cisco's historical lifetime hardware warranty has ended. PO accepted, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume orders, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Best For

Policy Lab Staging

When a lab purchase must reproduce Enhanced Image traffic policies, the switch provides six policers per Fast Ethernet port and sixty per Gigabit Ethernet port. The intended policy configuration therefore needs a port-level review rather than an endpoint count alone. Specify the policing rules and required software image before the PO.

Legacy Management Consolidation

When several legacy switches need a common management entry point, Cisco Cluster Management Suite groups sixteen interconnected switches under one IP address. That grouping is an administrative arrangement rather than a dedicated hardware stack. Identify the command switch, management addressing, and inter-switch connections before specifying the units on the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

Gigabit speed on every access port

WS-C2950T-24 access ports operate at 10/100 Mbps; only its two copper uplinks reach Gigabit speed. A requirement for Gigabit endpoint connections exceeds this configuration.

Power delivery to connected endpoints

WS-C2950T-24 does not provide PoE output. Phones, access points, or other endpoints requiring power through their network connection need a separate power arrangement.

Direct optical uplinks from the chassis

WS-C2950T-24 has fixed copper uplinks rather than optical ports or GBIC bays. Fiber cabling cannot connect directly to either uplink on this model.

Questions & Answers

What does the WS-C2950T-24 part number mean?

WS-C2950T-24 identifies a Catalyst 2950 switch with 24 Fast Ethernet access ports and two Gigabit copper uplinks. WS-C2950 names the switch family, T distinguishes the copper-uplink configuration, and 24 identifies the access-port count. This model uses Enhanced Image software without an EI suffix in its part number.

How is WS-C2950T-24 managed?

WS-C2950T-24 supports browser-based Cisco Cluster Management Suite, CLI access through the console or SSH and Telnet, SNMP, CiscoWorks 2000, and CiscoWorks for Windows. These paths cover local configuration and network-based administration. Select the intended management method and prepare its addressing and access settings before connecting the unit to production equipment.

Is WS-C2950T-24 still supported by Cisco?

WS-C2950T-24 is retired, and Cisco no longer supports the Catalyst 2950 series. Purchases are for legacy equipment rather than a currently supported Cisco switch. A procurement requirement for active Cisco service cannot be satisfied by this model, regardless of whether the individual unit is new sealed or refurbished.

What condition and warranty does ORM Systems offer for WS-C2950T-24?

ORM Systems offers WS-C2950T-24 new sealed or certified refurbished, with new-unit extended warranties up to 3 years and refurbished warranties up to 1 year. Returns are available for 30 days in every condition; terms apply. Cisco's historical limited lifetime hardware warranty has ended because the Catalyst 2950 series is retired.

Does WS-C2950T-24 provide PoE?

No, WS-C2950T-24 does not provide PoE on its access ports or uplinks. Connected endpoints require their own power source rather than an allocation from the switch. Include endpoint power arrangements in the purchase specification when the intended equipment cannot operate from an independently supplied adapter or another existing power source.

Which uplinks does WS-C2950T-24 include?

WS-C2950T-24 includes two fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 uplinks, each supporting Gigabit copper connectivity. No uplink module or optical transceiver is needed for those built-in connections. Specify copper connections to the upstream equipment; the chassis does not provide an optical cage into which an SFP or GBIC can be installed.

Can Catalyst 2950T-24 switches form a hardware stack?

No, Catalyst 2950T-24 switches do not form a dedicated hardware stack through stacking modules or stacking ports. Cisco Cluster Management Suite can instead administer sixteen interconnected switches through one IP address. That shared management entry point does not change the fixed copper ports into a dedicated stacking interface or stacking fabric.

Can WS-C2950T-24 route traffic between VLANs?

No, WS-C2950T-24 provides Layer 2 switching rather than inter-VLAN routing. Enhanced Image security filtering and traffic classification do not replace a routing function. Specify a separate routing device when hosts in different VLANs must communicate through routed interfaces, and keep that requirement separate from the switch's access-control and QoS capabilities.

What power supply and maximum draw does WS-C2950T-24 have?

WS-C2950T-24 uses an internal AC supply and has a maximum consumption of 30W. External backup is available through PWR300-AC-RPS-N1, not through a second internal PSU bay. The external connection provides an additional input arrangement; the 30W figure describes switch consumption rather than power available to connected endpoints.

What is the difference between WS-C2950T-24 and WS-C2950-24?

WS-C2950T-24 uses Enhanced Image software, while WS-C2950-24 uses Standard Image software. Enhanced Image adds traffic policing and security filtering beyond the Standard Image feature set. Both models are discontinued: the former suits legacy configurations requiring those additional policies, while the latter corresponds to legacy requirements using the basic software feature set.

What is the difference between WS-C2950T-24 and WS-C2950C-24?

WS-C2950T-24 has two 10/100/1000BASE-T copper uplinks, while WS-C2950C-24 has two fixed 100BASE-FX fiber uplinks. Both models are discontinued. The copper configuration matches existing Gigabit copper connections; the fiber configuration corresponds to legacy Fast Ethernet optical connections and should not be mistaken for a Gigabit fiber-uplink model.

What is the difference between WS-C2950T-24 and WS-C2950G-24-EI-DC?

WS-C2950T-24 accepts AC mains power through its internal supply, while WS-C2950G-24-EI-DC is the DC-powered configuration. Both models are discontinued, so this comparison concerns legacy equipment requirements. The AC model matches an AC-powered installation; the DC version corresponds to an installation that specifically requires the DC-input hardware configuration.

What switching performance does WS-C2950T-24 provide?

WS-C2950T-24 provides a 13.6 Gbps switching fabric, 8.8 Gbps maximum forwarding bandwidth, and a 6.6 Mpps forwarding rate. These figures describe different aspects of packet handling and should not be substituted for one another. Use the model-specific forwarding figures when checking a legacy traffic requirement against this fixed port configuration.
