WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L is a fanless, PoE-powered Layer 2 desktop switch with eight 10/100Mbps access ports and two fixed 1G copper uplinks. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-C runs the LAN Base software image for managed enterprise access extensions, including retail, classroom and hotel endpoint connections. Upstream power reaches the switch through its Gigabit uplinks, while the access ports carry data without supplying endpoint power. The discontinued WS-C2960CPD-8PT-L differs by adding PoE output on its access ports. Voice VLAN and Multidomain Authentication separate phone and PC traffic when both devices share an access connection. This Catalyst compact switch has no SFP cages or removable uplink cards, so its built-in copper connections determine the distribution handoff.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L price for new stock is $871.50, a 11.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $982.00. WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L refurb price is $183.75. WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

10 Gbps forwarding bandwidth provides the hardware throughput reference for traffic sizing. 4.2 Mpps forwarding at 64-byte packets supplies the packet-rate figure for small-frame workloads. WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L carries 128 MB DRAM and 64 MB flash for runtime operation and software storage. 15W power consumption with dual uplinks establishes the switch-load allowance at full throughput; single-uplink operation measures 12W. Administrators use the Cisco IOS CLI, Cisco Network Assistant or Cisco Prime Infrastructure for configuration and monitoring. Mini-USB and RS-232 console connections provide local administration paths, while Telnet and SSH provide remote CLI access. SSH and cryptographic SNMPv3 require the cryptographic software image. LACP forms aggregated Ethernet links, while DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection and IP source guard enforce access-edge security controls. Port-based ACLs apply policy to Layer 2 interfaces, and Private VLAN Edge provides isolation between switch ports. MACsec is not available on this model.

An installed base of WS-C2960PD-8TT-L creates a replacement requirement for the discontinued powered-device switch that reached end of sale on July 29, 2013. WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L replaces that earlier model for legacy requirements; confirm the existing configuration and upstream power arrangement before specifying the replacement line on the PO.
A multi-site standardization purchase needs a configuration template that stays within the LAN Base limit of 255 active VLANs. Count the VLANs required by each site's template rather than relying on the available VLAN identifier range, then approve the configuration scope before releasing the hardware purchase order.
A branch rollout into equipment furniture or a shared installation area requires mounting and cable-access decisions before hardware arrives. RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= provides rack brackets, CMP-MGNT-TRAY= provides a magnetic mounting tray, and CMP-CBLE-GRD= provides a cable guard. Confirm the installation surface and include the selected accessory PIDs on the PO.

WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L identifies a Catalyst 2960-C powered-device switch with eight Fast Ethernet access ports, two Gigabit uplinks and LAN Base. The WS-C2960CPD prefix identifies the compact powered-device model; 8 denotes access-port count; TT corresponds to data-only access and copper uplinks; L denotes LAN Base. PoE+ describes input power, not endpoint output.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L is managed through the Cisco IOS CLI, console access, Telnet or SSH, Cisco Network Assistant, Cisco Prime Infrastructure and SNMP. Mini-USB and RS-232 console connections support local administration. SSH and cryptographic SNMPv3 require the cryptographic software image; SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c are also supported.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L is discontinued: Cisco sales ended October 30, 2020, and Cisco service ended October 31, 2025. Security support also ended on the latter date. The direct replacement, WS-C3560CX-8PT-S, is itself discontinued; the forward migration chain now reaches the current C9200CX-8PT-2G-E model.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty ended October 31, 2025. Returns are 30 days in every condition; terms apply.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L ships with the LAN Base Cisco IOS software image, and its software feature set cannot be upgraded. The hardware order therefore needs to match the LAN Base capabilities required by the deployment. A later software-tier upgrade cannot turn this model into a routed-access switch.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L replaces the discontinued WS-C2960PD-8TT-L, whose Cisco end-of-sale date was July 29, 2013. Both have eight Fast Ethernet access ports, but the newer model has two Gigabit uplinks rather than one. Both models are discontinued; confirm the installed uplink arrangement before treating the replacement as like-for-like.
No, WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L does not supply PoE output from its eight access ports; its Gigabit uplinks accept PoE or PoE+ input to power the switch. The powered-device role is not PoE pass-through. Endpoints such as phones and wireless access points need independent power when connected to this model.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L has two fixed 1G copper uplinks and no SFP uplink cages. These connections use twisted-pair Ethernet rather than removable optics. LACP can group Ethernet links when configured on the switch and its peer. Confirm the copper handoff and upstream port availability; no SFP transceiver or uplink module belongs on the order.
WS-C2960CPD-8PT-L supplies PoE through eight Fast Ethernet access ports, whereas WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L has data-only access ports. Both are discontinued PoE-powered LAN Base models. The 8PT variant addresses legacy power-through requirements, with output dependent on its input power source; the 8TT variant serves endpoints that have independent power supplies.
WS-C2960C-8TC-L uses an internal AC power supply, whereas WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L accepts uplink PoE power or optional PWR-ADPT= external power. Both are discontinued LAN Base models with eight Fast Ethernet access ports. The 8TC model matches legacy installations using direct AC power; the powered-device 8TT model matches installations fed from upstream Ethernet.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L passed Cisco's last date of support on October 31, 2025, while C9200CX-8PT-2G-E is the current migration destination. The intermediate WS-C3560CX-8PT-S reached end of sale on April 30, 2026. The older model serves installed-base replacement requirements; the current model serves buyers moving beyond the discontinued product line.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L can be rack-mounted with optional RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= brackets, but its chassis remains desktop-sized at 269 mm wide, 44.4 mm high and 172 mm deep. The unit weighs 1.08 kg. Include RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= on the purchase order when rack installation is required rather than assuming the brackets are supplied.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L operates from -5°C to 45°C, with a minimum cold-start ambient temperature of 0°C. The operating range extends to 3048 m altitude. A powered-down unit must not be expected to start below the cold-start minimum, even if that temperature falls within its running range; confirm the startup environment before installation.
WS-C2960CPD-8TT-L draws 15W with two uplinks or 12W with one uplink at full throughput. The same measurements apply at 5% throughput. These figures describe the switch's own consumption, not an endpoint PoE output allowance. Size the upstream power allocation for the intended uplink arrangement and the switch load.
Yes, the Catalyst 2960-C supports Voice VLAN and Multidomain Authentication, allowing a phone and PC to share a switch port while using separate voice and data VLANs. Port-based ACLs also apply policy to Layer 2 interfaces. Specify the authentication policy and VLAN assignments before staging the configuration.
