WS-C2960L-48PS-LL is a managed Layer 2+ access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports, four fixed 1G SFP uplinks and a rack-mount 1U chassis. The Catalyst 2960-L family serves branch offices and small-business networks connecting workstations, IP phones, wireless access points and other compatible powered devices. LAN Lite provides the base software feature set, while the fixed uplink arrangement avoids a separate network-module selection. The discontinued WS-C2960L-48TS-LL provides the corresponding non-PoE configuration for installations that do not require endpoint power. This model retains Gigabit access connectivity rather than multigigabit downlinks, and its uplinks are not a modular upgrade path to higher-speed interfaces.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL price for new stock is $1,207.50, a 77% saving from the Cisco list price of $5,243.00. WS-C2960L-48PS-LL refurb price is $213.89. WS-C2960L-48PS-LL is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

104 Gbps switching capacity defines the switching fabric bandwidth, distinct from the 52 Gbps forwarding bandwidth. 370W of shared PoE power requires allocation across the attached endpoint mix rather than simultaneous maximum output on every powered port. Static routing and RIP provide basic routed connectivity alongside the Layer 2 switching functions. WS-C2960L-48PS-LL uses 512 MB DRAM and 256 MB flash, with a 16000-entry MAC address table for learned endpoints. The 2960-L Series supports 256 active VLANs, while RSTP, MSTP and LACP provide spanning-tree and link-aggregation controls. Hardware stacking is not supported. For electrical planning, the maximum input rating is 0.48 kVA; the separate 40.32W measurement at 100% traffic must not be treated as a complete powered-endpoint load allowance.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2960L-48PS-LL new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a three-year extended warranty for new units and up to one year for certified refurbished units; 30-day returns apply to every condition, subject to terms. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output under load on every powered port, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Specify the condition, quantity and required accessories before placing the order. For enterprise and volume purchases, POs are accepted, government buyers receive Net-30, and RMA includes advance replacement.

Scenario: A financial services branch office needs reliable connectivity for 40 IP phones, 5 wireless access points and 8 HD security cameras. The WS-C2960L-48PS-LL Catalyst 2960L 48-port GigE switch with PoE+ delivers high-density port availability and remote power scheduling. Outcome: Streamlined installation, centralized PoE+ power management, reduced rack footprint and consistent voice/video performance with zero downtime.
Scenario: A growing university campus deploys 200 wireless access points across academic buildings and student housing. The Catalyst 2960L with 48 GigE PoE+ ports and 4 x 1G SFP uplinks provides converged access, redundant uplink paths and smart PoE budgeting. Outcome: Simplified network expansion, guaranteed bandwidth for e-learning applications, centralized PoE monitoring and reduced total cost of ownership.
Scenario: A multi-site retail chain installs 150 IP cameras per store to enhance loss prevention and customer analytics. The WS-C2960L-48PS-LL switch powers PoE+ cameras directly and aggregates video streams via 1G SFP uplinks. Outcome: Scalable, low-latency video transport, unified power delivery across 48 ports, streamlined rack deployment and improved store security management.
When a branch rollout includes endpoints that must stay powered during switch reloads, Perpetual PoE maintains endpoint power while the switch restarts. Separate power continuity from network connectivity when writing acceptance criteria. Specify compatible powered devices and confirm the required reload behavior before the purchase order.
For a lab or staging order, local console access lets technicians prepare configurations before connecting production uplinks. CAB-CONSOLE-USB provides USB Type A to mini-B connectivity, while CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 supports the RJ-45 console. Include the cable matching the technician's workstation and the required mounting accessories on the purchase order.
When an existing installation needs replacement stock rather than a redesign, separate the spare quantity from the deployment quantity and record the required condition for each. ORM Systems provides regional stock and RMA handling in the UK, EU, US and MEA. Specify the destination region and replacement quantity before ordering.
10G uplinks to distribution
Fixed 1G SFP uplinks cannot provide 10G connectivity. C1300-48P-4X retains 48 Gigabit access ports and provides four 10G SFP+ uplinks.
Endpoint power above 30W
PoE+ output is limited to 30W per port. Higher-draw endpoints require a different power source; the shared budget does not increase the per-port ceiling.
Cisco support beyond October 2026
Cisco support ends October 31, 2026. C1300-48P-4G is the current migration endpoint through the discontinued C1000-48P-4G-L; plan the hardware change separately.

WS-C2960L-48PS-LL identifies a Catalyst 2960-L switch: WS-C2960L is the family prefix, 48 indicates the access-port count, P identifies PoE+, S identifies the 1G SFP uplink configuration, and LL identifies LAN Lite. The complete configuration provides Gigabit Ethernet access and four fixed uplinks rather than a removable network-module bay.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL supports the Cisco Configuration Professional web UI, CLI over SSH or Telnet, RJ-45 and USB console access, Bluetooth access through an external dongle, and SNMP. Network management paths include Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco DNA Center and Cisco Network Plug and Play. Centralized management entitlements are separate from local access.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL is discontinued: end of sale was October 31, 2021, software maintenance ended October 31, 2022, and Cisco support ends October 31, 2026. Existing support requires applicable entitlement. New service attachment and service contract renewal deadlines have also passed, so resale does not reopen Cisco service enrollment.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2960L-48PS-LL new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a three-year extended warranty for new units and up to one year for refurbished units. Both conditions include 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty is separate, subject to original-owner terms and support ending October 31, 2026.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL uses a perpetual LAN Lite base license; Cisco DNA Essentials adds term-based centralized management with a minimum three-year term and five-year or seven-year options. A Smart Account handles the add-on entitlement. At expiry, renew the add-on or deactivate it and reload to continue with base capabilities.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL provides a shared 370W PoE budget across 48 powered access ports, with PoE+ output limited to 30W per port. The aggregate budget does not support every port drawing that maximum simultaneously. Size the endpoint mix by its power requirements rather than assuming the port count represents full-load capacity.
This 48-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, not 10G SFP+ uplinks or a modular network-card bay. Select compatible SFP transceivers for the intended connection. A higher-speed transceiver does not turn the fixed 1G uplink configuration into a 10G connection.
Catalyst 2960-L switches cannot form a hardware stack. Each chassis remains an independent switch rather than a member of a shared stacking fabric. Ethernet connections between switches provide network links, not hardware stacking. Specify individual management and configuration requirements when ordering multiple units for the same installation.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL supports static routing and RIP, placing its routing capability in the Layer 2+ category. Static routing requires Cisco IOS Release 15.2(5)E2 or later. Confirm the installed software release and intended routing configuration before deployment rather than treating the LAN Lite image as a broader routing license.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL supplies PoE+ on its access ports, whereas WS-C2960L-48TS-LL is non-PoE. Both provide 48 Gigabit access ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks, and both are discontinued. The powered model suits compatible endpoints needing switch-delivered power; the non-PoE model suits endpoints with separate power sources.
WS-C2960L-48PS-LL has four 1G SFP uplinks, while WS-C2960L-48PQ-LL has four 10G SFP+ uplinks. Both retain 48 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and are discontinued. The PS configuration fits an existing Gigabit uplink design; the PQ configuration fits an existing installation requiring the higher uplink speed.
C1300-48P-4G is the current migration endpoint for discontinued WS-C2960L-48PS-LL, whose Cisco support ends October 31, 2026. The replacement chain passes through the discontinued C1000-48P-4G-L. Retaining the original model suits an existing installation requiring the same hardware; the Catalyst 1300 model suits a hardware refresh rather than like-for-like sparing.
