Copper Access Connectivity for Enterprise Branch Networks

WS-C2960-48TT-S is a managed Layer 2 access switch with 48 10/100 RJ-45 ports, two fixed 10/100/1000 copper uplinks, and LAN Lite software. The Cisco Catalyst 2960 chassis occupies 1U and provides non-PoE connectivity for externally powered equipment in entry-level enterprise and branch office networks. Endpoint connections remain Fast Ethernet despite the Gigabit uplinks. WS-C2960-48PST-S, also discontinued, differs by providing endpoint PoE. The copper-only uplink arrangement has no optical cages or removable network modules to populate. Match endpoint speed, power requirements, and the installed configuration before treating another model as an equivalent spare.

WS-C2960-48TT-S price for new stock is $619.50, a 56.5% saving from the Cisco list price of $1,425.00. WS-C2960-48TT-S refurb price is $147.00. WS-C2960-48TT-S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

16 Gbps switching capacity and a 10.1 Mpps forwarding rate establish the traffic envelope for workload planning. An 8000-entry MAC table bounds learned-address capacity, while 64 MB DRAM and 32 MB flash support the running software and stored image. WS-C2960-48TT-S supports RSTP/MSTP and LACP for loop control and link aggregation. The Catalyst 2960 with LAN Lite remains a Layer 2 device rather than an IP routing boundary. Separate switching requirements from routing requirements when assessing configuration compatibility, and verify that the intended workload fits the available forwarding and address-table resources.

Ordering

New sealed and certified refurbished WS-C2960-48TT-S orders carry ORM coverage: up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on either condition, terms apply; Cisco hardware coverage ended October 31, 2019. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, clean boot, every port linking at rated speed, and internal PSU status; firmware is verified and the configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantities, and required installation contents on the PO before ordering this switch. For enterprise and volume requirements, ORM accepts POs, offers government Net-30, and provides RMA with advance replacement through UK, EU, US, and MEA stock and RMA locations.

WS-C2960-48TT-S Use Case

Branch Office Network Aggregation with WS-C2960-48TT-S

In a distributed enterprise environment, IT teams deploy the Cisco Catalyst 2960 48 10/100 + 2 1000BT LAN Lite Image (WS-C2960-48TT-S) as the core access switch at remote branch offices. It consolidates 48 Fast Ethernet endpoints and provides two gigabit uplinks to the corporate WAN, enabling VLAN-based segmentation, energy-efficient operation, and centralized management. The outcome is enhanced connectivity reliability, simplified troubleshooting, and up to 20% lower operating expenses.

Retail Point-of-Sale and Inventory Network Backbone

A national retailer implements the WS-C2960-48TT-S (Catalyst 2960 48 10/100 + 2 1000BT LAN Lite) to power POS terminals, inventory scanners, and CCTV cameras across 100+ stores. The 48 Fast Ethernet ports ensure uninterrupted transaction processing, while dual gigabit uplinks deliver low-latency links to the distribution center. Built-in VLAN and LAN Lite security features enforce PCI-DSS compliance, boosting network uptime and accelerating checkout throughput.

Industrial IoT Edge Connectivity and Segmentation

In a smart manufacturing facility, engineers deploy the Catalyst 2960 48 10/100 + 2 1000BT LAN Lite (WS-C2960-48TT-S) to connect PLCs, sensors, VoIP phones, and IP cameras on the factory floor. With 48 dedicated ports and two gigabit uplinks, it enforces deterministic traffic flows using VLANs and QoS policies. The result is real-time data delivery, robust OT network isolation, and centralized monitoring, cutting production downtime by 30%.

Best For

Lab Configuration Staging

When staging a segmented test network, the 64-active-VLAN limit needs to match the configuration planned for loading. Keep the test inventory and acceptance criteria separate from the intended production design. Before the PO, specify the required VLAN count and the configuration handoff expected after testing.

Multi-Site Spare Standardization

When purchasing replacements for several existing branches, single-IP management can group 16 switches without creating a hardware stack. Treat the management arrangement as an administrative choice, not additional forwarding capacity. Specify the grouping plan, individual switch quantities, and site allocation before releasing a consolidated PO.

Legacy Fleet Sparing

When maintaining an installed fleet rather than starting a refresh, security support ending October 30, 2017 matters independently of hardware condition. A replacement unit does not reinstate Cisco security fixes. Record the accepted security exception, maintenance responsibility, and required spare quantities before adding this hardware to the PO.

Not Suitable If

Gigabit connectivity on every access port

WS-C2960-48TT-S limits access connections to 100 Mbps. C1300-48T-4G provides 48 Gigabit access ports and is the current endpoint of the Gigabit migration chain.

Switch-supplied power for connected endpoints

WS-C2960-48TT-S supplies no PoE. C1300-48P-4G provides powered Gigabit access connections, changing both endpoint power capability and access speed from this legacy model.

10G uplinks to distribution

WS-C2960-48TT-S uplinks stop at 1G copper. C1300-48T-4X provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks and also changes the access ports from Fast Ethernet to Gigabit.

Redundant power feeds to the chassis

WS-C2960-48TT-S uses its internal AC supply only and has no redundant-power-supply connector. Adding an external redundant supply cannot provide a second supported power input.

Questions & Answers

What does the WS-C2960-48TT-S part number mean?

WS-C2960-48TT-S identifies a Catalyst 2960 switch with 48 Fast Ethernet access ports, two copper Gigabit uplinks, and LAN Lite software. Within the configuration identifier, C2960 denotes the family, 48 the access-port quantity, TT the copper uplink configuration, and S the supplied software image.

How is WS-C2960-48TT-S managed?

WS-C2960-48TT-S supports the web device manager, CLI access through console, Telnet or SSH v2, Cisco Network Assistant, CiscoWorks LMS, and SNMPv1/v2c/v3. SSH v2 and encrypted SNMPv3 require the cryptographic image. Specify the required management methods and software image when preparing the unit for use.

Is WS-C2960-48TT-S discontinued?

WS-C2960-48TT-S is discontinued: Cisco end of sale was October 31, 2014, and support ended October 31, 2019. New sealed inventory does not restart those milestones. The immediate replacement, WS-C2960+48TC-S, is also discontinued; C1300-48T-4G is the current endpoint of the Gigabit migration chain.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for WS-C2960-48TT-S?

WS-C2960-48TT-S is offered new sealed with up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Both conditions carry 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty is no longer active because Cisco support ended October 31, 2019. ORM coverage is separate from Cisco coverage.

Which software license comes with WS-C2960-48TT-S?

LAN Lite is the Cisco IOS software image supplied on WS-C2960-48TT-S. Specify that image when matching an existing configuration, and do not treat a similarly named LAN Base unit as the same purchase. The software tier is part of the order's identity, not merely an optional label.

How many uplinks does WS-C2960-48TT-S have?

Two fixed 10/100/1000 copper uplinks are built into WS-C2960-48TT-S, with no SFP cages or removable network modules. Uplink connection speed stops at 1G. Plan copper connections for this model, and do not add optical transceivers to its PO expecting a fiber uplink connection.

What power input and consumption does the Catalyst 2960 48TT-S use?

The Catalyst 2960 48TT-S uses an internal 100-240V AC supply and consumes a measured 71W at 100% throughput. That measurement is not a guaranteed maximum draw. For electrical sizing, distinguish measured consumption from the input rating and confirm outlet compatibility before completing the purchase order.

Can WS-C2960-48TT-S route between VLANs?

No, WS-C2960-48TT-S operates at Layer 2 with LAN Lite and does not provide IP routing. RSTP/MSTP and LACP handle loop prevention and link aggregation, not route exchange. Specify an external routing device when VLANs must communicate, and keep that requirement separate from switch condition and spare quantity.

Is the Catalyst 2960 48TT-S rack mountable?

Yes, the Catalyst 2960 48TT-S is a 1U rack-mount switch measuring 44 mm high, 450 mm wide, and 242 mm deep, with a weight of 3.6 kg. Check available rack space, usable equipment depth, and installation weight allowance before issuing the purchase order.

What is the difference between WS-C2960-48TT-S and WS-C2960-48PST-S?

WS-C2960-48PST-S supplies PoE on 48 access ports, whereas WS-C2960-48TT-S supplies no endpoint power. Both are discontinued Catalyst 2960 models. For an existing fleet, the PoE variant addresses endpoints needing switch-supplied power; the TT variant addresses externally powered endpoints. Neither choice restores Cisco support.

What is the difference between WS-C2960-48TT-S and WS-C2960-48TT-L?

WS-C2960-48TT-L ships with LAN Base, while WS-C2960-48TT-S ships with LAN Lite. Both variants are discontinued. Match the exact software image to the configuration being replaced. The S variant suits LAN Lite fleet spares; the L variant suits buyers maintaining LAN Base configurations rather than assuming the tiers are interchangeable.

What is the difference between WS-C2960-48TT-S and C1300-48T-4G?

C1300-48T-4G provides 48 Gigabit access ports, while WS-C2960-48TT-S supplies 48 10/100 access ports. The Catalyst 2960 model is discontinued; the Catalyst 1300 model is the current Gigabit migration endpoint. Match the old PID for an installed-fleet spare; specify the newer model when Gigabit endpoint connectivity is required.
