Fanless Access Switching for Small Branch Offices

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS is a fanless, Smart Managed Layer 2+ access switch with 24 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Its data-only access ports connect locally powered endpoints rather than delivering PoE, while the uplink architecture requires no removable network card. The full-width 1U chassis belongs to the Catalyst 2960-L family and runs Cisco IOS LAN Lite for small-office and branch access networks. Copper connections serve the endpoint network, while the dedicated uplinks provide separate upstream connections. The closest powered sibling, discontinued WS-C2960L-SM-24PS, adds PoE+ with a shared 195W budget. Select the TS configuration when endpoint power is supplied independently and the existing upstream network uses Gigabit connections.

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS price for new stock is $896.24. WS-C2960L-SM-24TS refurb price is $52,500.00. WS-C2960L-SM-24TS is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

56 Gbps switching capacity supports traffic across the access and uplink interfaces. Static routing and RIP provide basic routed connectivity, with RIP Version 1 or Version 2 selectable through the management interface. 23.64W consumption at 100% traffic provides the loaded operating figure for power and cooling planning. WS-C2960L-SM-24TS combines 512 MB DRAM with 256 MB flash for operating software and configuration storage. A 16000-entry MAC table supports address learning, while 256 active VLANs define the segmentation ceiling. The Catalyst 2960-L Smart Managed interface uses Cisco Configuration Professional for browser-based configuration; limited CLI access supports troubleshooting and monitoring rather than unrestricted CLI administration. STP/RSTP/MSTP control Layer 2 loops, and LACP supports aggregated Ethernet connections. A single fixed internal AC supply provides chassis power without an internal redundant-supply option. Administrators should distinguish the browser configuration workflow from the narrower command-line troubleshooting workflow when preparing operational procedures.

Ordering

ORM Systems supplies WS-C2960L-SM-24TS new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year; every condition includes 30-day returns, with terms applying. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, optics bay recognition and PSU status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify quantity, condition and accessories on the purchase order; Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty is separate, subject to original-owner eligibility, with service ending October 31, 2026. Enterprise and volume orders support PO purchasing, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock/RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Cisco service cutoff approaching

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS loses Cisco service after October 31, 2026. For a current replacement, specify C1300-24T-4G rather than C1000-24T-4G-L, the discontinued intermediate successor.

Optional management subscription licensing

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS needs separate licensing for Cisco DNA Essentials management features, with three-year minimum terms. Assign the add-on to a Smart Account; renew it or deactivate it and reload when the term ends.

Best For

Branch Configuration Standardization

When several small branches need the same segmentation template, VLAN groups can contain no more than 32 VLANs each. Build the branch template around that grouping limit and the required access-port assignments, then specify the configuration, administrator access and staging requirements before issuing the purchase order.

Lab Packet Capture

When a lab or staging bench needs packet capture from candidate ports, local SPAN can copy received traffic, transmitted traffic or both to a destination port on the same switch. Remote SPAN is not supported. Specify the capture-port assignment and required mirroring behavior before ordering the lab units.

Not Suitable If

Power delivery to connected endpoints

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS provides no PoE output, so powered endpoints need a separate power source. C1300-24P-4G is the current 24-port PoE alternative with four 1G SFP uplinks.

10G uplinks to distribution

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks rather than 10G interfaces. C1300-24T-4X is the current 24-port data-only alternative with four 10G SFP+ uplinks.

Questions & Answers

What does the WS-C2960L-SM-24TS part number mean?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS identifies a Catalyst 2960-L Smart Managed switch: WS-C2960L identifies the family, SM identifies Smart Managed, 24 identifies the access-port count, T identifies data-only Ethernet ports, and S identifies four 1G SFP uplinks. The model runs LAN Lite without a separate license suffix.

How is WS-C2960L-SM-24TS managed?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS uses Cisco Configuration Professional's on-box web UI, with limited CLI troubleshooting through SSH, Telnet, RJ-45 or USB console. Bluetooth access requires an external USB dongle. The series also supports SNMP, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco Network Plug and Play, and Cisco DNA Center management.

What is the difference between WS-C2960L-SM-24TS and WS-C2960L-SM-24PS?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS provides data-only ports, whereas discontinued WS-C2960L-SM-24PS adds PoE+ with a shared 195W budget. Both configurations provide 24 Gigabit access ports and four 1G SFP uplinks. The TS model serves locally powered endpoints; the PS model serves deployments that also need endpoint power.

What is the difference between WS-C2960L-SM-24TS and WS-C2960L-SM-24TQ?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS has four 1G SFP uplinks, while discontinued WS-C2960L-SM-24TQ has four 10G SFP+ uplinks. Each provides 24 data-only Gigabit access ports. The TS configuration matches existing 1G upstream links; the TQ configuration serves higher-speed distribution connections and requires compatible uplink optics.

Can WS-C2960L-SM-24TS route traffic?

Yes, WS-C2960L-SM-24TS supports static routing and RIP, with Version 1 or Version 2 selectable through the Smart Managed interface. Static routes require explicit destination and next-hop configuration. These capabilities place the switch in Layer 2+; specify the required routing configuration during staging.

Which rack mounting kit fits the Catalyst 2960-L 24-port switch?

The Catalyst 2960-L 24-port switch uses RCKMNT-1RU-2KX for rack installation, and that kit also supports 48-port models. WS-C2960L-SM-24TS has a chassis width of 445 mm and height of 44 mm. Confirm whether RCKMNT-1RU-2KX is included in the quoted condition before adding mounting hardware.

What licensing options apply to WS-C2960L-SM-24TS?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS runs LAN Lite as its base image, while optional Cisco DNA Essentials management licensing offers three-, five- or seven-year terms. Add-on licenses use a Smart Account. At expiration, renew the subscription or deactivate the add-on and reload to continue with base-license capabilities.

What is the lifecycle status of WS-C2960L-SM-24TS?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS reached end of sale on October 31, 2021, and its last date of Cisco support is October 31, 2026. Software maintenance ended October 31, 2022. Eligible existing service remains subject to entitlement, and no Cisco service continues beyond the final support date.

What is the difference between WS-C2960L-SM-24TS and C1300-24T-4G?

WS-C2960L-SM-24TS is an end-of-sale model with support ending October 31, 2026; C1300-24T-4G is the current successor at the end of its replacement chain. The intermediate C1000-24T-4G-L is also discontinued. Choose the older model for like-for-like sparing, or the current model for a new purchase.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for WS-C2960L-SM-24TS?

ORM Systems offers WS-C2960L-SM-24TS new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Every condition has 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty is separate, subject to original-owner eligibility and limited by the October 31, 2026 support cutoff.
