WS-C2960S-48TS-S is a managed Layer 2 access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports, two fixed 1G SFP uplinks and the LAN Lite feature set. The non-PoE chassis occupies one rack unit in the Catalyst 2960-S Series, serving campus and branch connections for separately powered desktops and other wired devices. Its uplinks are built in rather than supplied through a removable network card, so an uplink-module purchase cannot expand this configuration. The discontinued WS-C2960S-48TS-L carries four SFP uplinks and LAN Base, distinguishing that sibling from this model when matching replacement hardware to an existing installation.

100 Gbps switching capacity establishes the full-duplex fabric limit for access traffic. 74.4 Mpps forwarding performance applies to 64-byte packets, providing the packet-rate reference for small-frame workloads. WS-C2960S-48TS-S carries 128 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash for operating memory and persistent software storage. An 8000-entry MAC table bounds learned-address capacity, which matters when counting devices behind downstream connections. 53W measured consumption at full throughput provides a load estimate for facility planning, not a power-supply rating. Management includes CLI administration and SNMP monitoring; SSH v2 and encrypted SNMP v3 require a cryptographic software image. FlexStack is unavailable on this hardware, so stacking accessories cannot make this configuration a stack member.
Specify WS-C2960S-48TS-S in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, and include unit quantity and required accessories on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot and every port linking at rated speed; optics bay recognition and PSU status are checked, firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. ORM warranties provide new units with up to 3-year extended coverage and certified refurbished units with up to 1 year; returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply, while Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty ended November 30, 2020. For enterprise and volume Cisco Catalyst 2960S-48TS-S orders, ORM Systems accepts POs, offers Net-30 for government and handles RMA with advance replacement.

When a staging network needs basic VLAN segmentation, this LAN Lite configuration supports 64 active VLANs. Keep the test topology within that limit and separate the required VLAN inventory from any later production expansion. Before the PO, confirm that the intended staging configuration fits the active-VLAN allowance.
When existing branch racks require a consistent mounting and power-cord inventory, RCKMNT-1RU= is the compatible spare rack-mount kit and CAB-16AWG-AC serves US or Canadian AC connections. Separate those accessory requirements from the chassis condition selection, and confirm the installation pack contents before placing the PO.
When an existing fleet requires condition-matched replacement inventory rather than a network redesign, ORM regional stock and RMA coverage spans the UK, EU, US and MEA. Keep spare quantities separate from rollout quantities, and identify the receiving region, destination and required condition on the purchase order.
PoE power for connected endpoints
WS-C2960S-48TS-S supplies no endpoint power. C9200L-48P-4G is a current 48-port PoE+ migration option; size the required endpoint power allocation before specifying the powered configuration.
10G uplinks to distribution
The two fixed SFP uplinks stop at 1G. C9200L-48T-4X is the current 48-port data-only migration option for the family's SFP+ uplink configurations.
Additional hardware stack members
WS-C2960S-48TS-S does not support FlexStack. Adding C2960S-STACK cannot turn the LAN Lite hardware into a stack member, so exclude this configuration from stack-expansion orders.

WS-C2960S-48TS-S identifies the Catalyst 2960-S LAN Lite configuration: WS-C2960S is the family prefix, 48 is the Gigabit copper port count, TS identifies the data-port configuration with SFP uplinks, and the final S selects LAN Lite. The complete configuration has two fixed 1G SFP uplinks.
Catalyst 2960-S LAN Lite management includes CLI access through console, SSH v2 or Telnet, SNMP monitoring, PC-based configuration tools, CiscoWorks LMS and Cisco Prime Infrastructure. SSH v2 and encrypted SNMP v3 require a cryptographic software image. CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 and CAB-CONSOLE-USB provide the physical console connection options.
Yes, WS-C2960S-48TS-S reached end of sale on November 6, 2015, and Cisco support ended November 30, 2020. Cisco service has ended. The original replacement was WS-C2960X-48TS-LL, which is also discontinued; the forward migration chain now reaches C9200L-48T-4G for a current 48-port data-only configuration.
New sealed and certified refurbished WS-C2960S-48TS-S orders carry ORM warranties: new units offer up to 3-year extended coverage and refurbished units up to 1 year. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. Cisco's original Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty ended with Cisco service on November 30, 2020.
No, WS-C2960S-48TS-S cannot be upgraded from LAN Lite to LAN Base because its feature level is tied to the hardware model. Loading a different software image does not provide that upgrade path. Match the intended configuration to LAN Lite capabilities before including this part on a purchase order.
Two fixed 1G SFP uplinks are built into WS-C2960S-48TS-S; the chassis does not use a removable uplink expansion card. Select compatible transceivers for the physical links being ordered, and check the far-end interface, fiber type and required reach. Different optics do not convert these uplinks into 10G interfaces.
An internal 100-240V AC supply powers Cisco Catalyst 2960S-48TS-S, and the chassis has no redundant-power-supply port. Measured draw is 53W at full throughput and 50W at 5% throughput; these are load estimates rather than a supply rating. Specify the appropriate AC connection for the installation location.
WS-C2960S-48TS-S is non-PoE, while discontinued WS-C2960S-48LPS-L provides a 370W PoE/PoE+ budget. The data-only model serves separately powered endpoints; the powered configuration serves legacy installations that deliver power through network connections. Both are discontinued, so a current powered-hardware purchase requires following the powered model's migration chain.
WS-C2960S-48TS-S uses LAN Lite, while discontinued WS-C2960S-48TS-L uses LAN Base. The feature levels are fixed to their respective hardware, and the LAN Lite unit cannot be converted by loading another image. The LAN Lite part suits basic Layer 2 requirements; configurations requiring LAN Base need hardware carrying that feature set.
WS-C2960S-48TS-S has ended Cisco support, while C9200L-48T-4G is the current 48-port data-only migration endpoint. The intermediate replacement, discontinued WS-C2960X-48TS-LL, has a last support date of October 31, 2027. The older part serves existing-fleet replacement purchases; the current model suits buyers requiring a current Cisco migration destination.
