WS-C2960S-48TD-L provides 48 non-PoE Gigabit Ethernet access ports and two fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks in a managed Layer 2 switch. The copper interfaces also negotiate 10/100 speeds, allowing desktop connections with different speed requirements to share the access chassis. Its LAN Base Cisco IOS image places this configuration within the Catalyst 2960-S family for campus and branch access, and the full-width 1U chassis mounts in a standard rack. Both uplink cages accept supported 1G optics when the distribution connection does not run at 10G. Discontinued WS-C2960S-48LPD-L adds a shared 370W PoE+ budget; this data-only variant instead connects endpoints with their own power. The fixed uplink arrangement has no removable network card for changing the uplink architecture.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L price for new stock is $87.14, a 55.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $194.83. WS-C2960S-48TD-L refurb price is $147.99. WS-C2960S-48TD-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

176 Gbps switching capacity provides the full-duplex switching ceiling, while 101.2 Mpps forwarding performance describes handling of 64-byte packets. Four egress queues per port separate traffic classes, and strict priority queuing gives selected traffic precedence; Shaped Round Robin and Weighted Tail Drop govern scheduling and congestion handling. WS-C2960S-48TD-L carries 128 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash for runtime operation and persistent storage. The software supports 255 active VLANs from 4000 available VLAN IDs, so VLAN planning must distinguish available identifiers from simultaneously active networks. Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, and Port Security provide access-edge security controls. The Cisco Catalyst 2960S-48TD-L also provides a dedicated Ethernet management interface alongside its console connections. An internal autoranging supply accepts 100-240V AC; 55W measured consumption at full throughput informs cabinet power planning without treating the 0.09 kVA input rating as actual draw. External backup uses PWR-RPS2300 rather than a second internal supply.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L is available from ORM Systems as new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, rated-speed port links, optics bay recognition, PSU status, and fan status, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. Select the condition and quantity, then submit an itemized purchase order for this switch and the accessories required for the configuration. ORM warranties provide up to a 3-year extended term for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco coverage ended November 30, 2020. Enterprise and volume POs are accepted, with government Net-30 and RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When an existing stack needs a replacement member, the 20 Gbps FlexStack connection makes software alignment part of the purchase decision. Connected members automatically adopt the stack's Cisco IOS version. Identify the existing stack software and confirm the intended replacement member's image before specifying the order.
When a branch rollout places equipment in enclosed cabinets, allow 76 mm clearance around ventilation openings rather than sizing the enclosure around the chassis alone. Fixed copper connections have a 100 m cable-length limit. Check cabinet ventilation, rear access, and endpoint cable runs before specifying the installation hardware on the PO.
When a staging bench uses both console connectors, the USB console takes input precedence and disables RJ-45 console input while connected. Windows USB-console operation requires the Cisco USB device driver. Confirm the workstation driver and intended console connection before ordering CAB-CONSOLE-USB or CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 for the staging workflow.
Power for phones and access points
WS-C2960S-48TD-L has no PoE output. C9200L-48P-4X is a current 48-port PoE+ migration option; specify its power allocation separately against the connected endpoints' requirements.
An active Cisco support lifecycle
Cisco support for WS-C2960S-48TD-L ended November 30, 2020. C9200L-48T-4X is the current 48-port data-only replacement at the end of the migration chain.

WS-C2960S-48TD-L identifies a Catalyst 2960-S switch with 48 non-PoE 10/100/1000 ports, two SFP+ uplinks, and LAN Base software. The WS-C2960S prefix identifies the family, 48 is the access-port count, TD identifies the data-only configuration with two 10G uplinks, and the final L denotes LAN Base. Optional stacking hardware is separate.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L is managed through device manager web UI, Cisco IOS CLI over console or Telnet, Cisco Network Assistant, CiscoWorks LMS, CiscoView, Cisco Configuration Engine, SNMP, Cisco Security Manager, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, and SmartOperations. Console connections use RJ-45 or USB mini-Type B; a dedicated Ethernet management port provides network access.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L is discontinued: Cisco ended sales on November 6, 2015, and support on November 30, 2020. Security support ended November 5, 2018. The original replacement, WS-C2960X-48TD-L, is also discontinued; the forward migration path ends at C9200L-48T-4X. Purchasing this model does not restore Cisco service eligibility.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2960S-48TD-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year, plus 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty ended with support on November 30, 2020. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default.
LAN Base is included with WS-C2960S-48TD-L, and the software feature level is tied to the hardware model. Catalyst 2960-S switches with LAN Lite cannot be upgraded to LAN Base. Specify the complete part number rather than substituting a LAN Lite chassis and planning a later image upgrade.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L has two fixed SFP+ uplink cages supporting 10G connections or compatible 1G optics. SFP-10G-SR=, SFP-10G-LR=, and SFP-10G-LRM= are supported 10G options. Select the transceiver against the installed fiber and remote interface before placing the order; the fixed cages do not require a removable uplink card.
Four Catalyst 2960-S members form a FlexStack stack when WS-C2960S-48TD-L and its partners have C2960S-STACK modules installed. Stack throughput is 20 Gbps. Cable options are CAB-STK-E-0.5M at 0.5 m, CAB-STK-E-1M at 1 m, and CAB-STK-E-3M at 3 m. LAN Base supports stacking; LAN Lite models do not.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L supports external backup through PWR-RPS2300 and CAB-RPS2300-E=, rather than a second internal PSU. PWR-RPS2300 ships without a power supply, and C3K-PWR-750WAC= is a compatible supply option. The switch normally uses its internal 100-240V AC supply; connect the external backup equipment to a separate AC source.
Catalyst 2960-S provides four egress queues per port, strict priority queuing, Shaped Round Robin scheduling, and Weighted Tail Drop congestion avoidance. Flow-based rate limiting supports 64 aggregate or individual policers per port. Traffic classification can use source and destination addresses or transport-layer port numbers, with cross-stack QoS available for stacked configurations.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L is a full-width 1U rack-mount switch measuring 45 mm high, 445 mm wide, and 300 mm deep, with a 4.3 kg weight. Operating temperature is -5°C to 45°C through 1500 m altitude, or -5°C to 40°C through 3000 m. Allow 76 mm clearance around ventilation openings when checking cabinet placement.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L provides no endpoint power, whereas WS-C2960S-48LPD-L supplies PoE+ from a shared 370W budget. Both have 48 Gigabit access ports and two SFP+ uplinks, and both models are discontinued. The data-only variant suits already-powered endpoints; the powered variant suits legacy installations whose endpoint power requirements fit within the shared budget.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L includes LAN Base, whereas WS-C2960S-48TS-S includes LAN Lite and cannot be upgraded to LAN Base. LAN Base supports 255 active VLANs; LAN Lite supports 64. Both models are discontinued: the LAN Base variant suits existing configurations requiring that feature level, while LAN Lite fits simpler legacy configurations within its limits.
WS-C2960S-48TD-L is discontinued and no longer receives Cisco support, while C9200L-48T-4X is the current replacement endpoint reached through the also-discontinued WS-C2960X-48TD-L. Both configurations serve 48 data-only access ports. The older switch addresses like-for-like legacy replacement; C9200L-48T-4X addresses migration to the current hardware family rather than extending an unsupported installation.
Catalyst 2960-S provides Port Security, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and IP Source Guard, alongside Flexible Authentication and RADIUS Change of Authorization. IPv6 First-Hop Security addresses rogue router advertisements and spoofing threats. These controls belong in the access configuration; identify the authentication policy and address-validation requirements before preparing the switch configuration.
