Managed Access for Branch and Campus Networks

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S is a managed Layer 2 access switch with 48 Fast Ethernet downlinks, two fixed Gigabit SFP uplinks and LAN Lite software. The copper access ports operate at 10/100 Mbps, rather than Gigabit speed, and provide data connectivity without supplying endpoint power. Cisco Catalyst 2960-SF switches serve branch-office and midsize campus access networks. The discontinued WS-C2960S-F48LPS-L differs by providing a shared 370W PoE budget for powered endpoints; it is not an identical data-only replacement. This Fast Ethernet access switch with SFP uplinks therefore requires a purchase specification that distinguishes access speed, endpoint power and software image rather than matching port count alone.

Technical Details

10.1 Mpps forwarding supports packet switching between the access interfaces and uplinks. An 8000-entry MAC address table provides Layer 2 address-learning capacity. WS-C2960S-F48TS-S carries 128 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash for running software and local storage. Cisco Network Assistant provides configuration and troubleshooting for the Catalyst 2960-SF family. The LAN Lite configuration has no stacking option, so additional switches remain separate units rather than joining a shared hardware stack. These limits distinguish the supplied configuration from other members of the family and should remain explicit when matching an existing installation.

Ordering

Order WS-C2960S-F48TS-S new sealed or certified refurbished, specifying the condition and required connection accessories on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, optics bay recognition and clean boot; firmware is verified and the configuration is wiped to factory default. ORM warranties are up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco warranty and service ended November 30, 2020. Enterprise and volume orders support PO acceptance, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement, with UK, EU, US and MEA regional stock/RMA arrangements.

Support and migration planning

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S requires an independent support and sparing plan because Cisco service ended November 30, 2020. C9200L-48T-4G is the current migration endpoint; the intervening WS-C2960X-48TS-LL is discontinued.

Best For

Replacement Unit Staging

A staging bench reproducing an existing WS-C2960S-F48TS-S installation can use the Catalyst 2960-SF USB storage interface for file transfers and backups. Keep the saved files associated with the intended replacement configuration, and identify the required management connections and transfer accessories before approving the purchase order.

Existing Energy Management

An organization retaining Cisco EnergyWise across existing branch equipment can include WS-C2960S-F48TS-S in a like-for-like replacement plan. Preserve the established power-management policy rather than treating the hardware purchase as a software-feature upgrade, and specify the management configuration that must be reproduced before the purchase order is released.

Not Suitable If

Gigabit speed at every endpoint

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S limits access connections to 100 Mbps. C9200L-48T-4G is the current migration endpoint; specify its required access configuration separately before ordering.

Switch-powered phones or access points

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S does not supply PoE. C9200L-48P-4G is a current PoE+ migration option; size the required endpoint power allocation before selecting its configuration.

Questions & Answers

What does the WS-C2960S-F48TS-S part number mean?

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S identifies a Catalyst 2960-SF switch with 48 Fast Ethernet access ports, two SFP uplinks and LAN Lite software. WS-C2960S is the family prefix, F48TS identifies this non-PoE Fast Ethernet configuration with SFP uplinks, and the final -S identifies the LAN Lite image.

How is the Catalyst 2960-SF managed?

Cisco Network Assistant provides configuration and troubleshooting for the Catalyst 2960-SF family, including WS-C2960S-F48TS-S. The switch is managed rather than unmanaged and carries the LAN Lite software image. Include the intended management setup in the purchase specification when reproducing an existing installation or preparing a replacement unit.

Which software image comes with WS-C2960S-F48TS-S?

LAN Lite is the software image supplied with WS-C2960S-F48TS-S. LAN Base belongs to separately numbered Catalyst 2960-SF configurations, so the software image must be matched explicitly when purchasing replacement hardware. A shared family name or matching access-port count does not identify the same supplied feature set.

Is WS-C2960S-F48TS-S end of life?

Yes, WS-C2960S-F48TS-S reached end of sale on November 6, 2015, and Cisco support ended on November 30, 2020. Security support ended on November 5, 2018. Replacement purchases therefore require a separate support and sparing plan rather than an expectation of continuing Cisco service for this hardware.

What uplinks does WS-C2960S-F48TS-S have?

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S has two fixed Gigabit Ethernet SFP uplink slots alongside its Fast Ethernet access ports. The uplinks provide the higher-speed connections toward the rest of the network; they do not change the speed of the copper downlinks. Specify the required uplink connections when preparing the hardware order.

Can WS-C2960S-F48TS-S join a hardware stack?

No, WS-C2960S-F48TS-S has no stacking option in its LAN Lite configuration. The switch remains an individually managed unit rather than becoming a member of a shared hardware stack. Do not treat stacking capabilities elsewhere in the Catalyst 2960-SF family as capabilities of this specific part number.

What conditions and warranties does ORM Systems offer for WS-C2960S-F48TS-S?

ORM Systems offers WS-C2960S-F48TS-S new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on refurbished units. Returns cover every condition for 30 days; terms apply. Cisco’s enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty ended when support ended on November 30, 2020.

What is the difference between WS-C2960S-F48TS-S and WS-C2960S-F48LPS-L?

WS-C2960S-F48LPS-L supplies a shared 370W PoE budget, while WS-C2960S-F48TS-S does not power endpoints. Both models are discontinued. The PoE model suits matching an existing powered-endpoint installation; the non-PoE model suits data-only replacement where connected devices receive power independently of the access switch.

What is the difference between WS-C2960S-F48TS-S and WS-C2960S-F48TS-L?

WS-C2960S-F48TS-S carries LAN Lite software, while WS-C2960S-F48TS-L carries LAN Base software. Both configurations are discontinued. LAN Lite suits replacement orders preserving an existing LAN Lite configuration; LAN Base suits orders matching an existing LAN Base requirement. Specify the full part number rather than the common family name.

What is the difference between WS-C2960S-F48TS-S and C9200L-48T-4G?

C9200L-48T-4G is the current migration endpoint, whereas WS-C2960S-F48TS-S has been outside Cisco support since November 30, 2020. The migration chain passes through the discontinued WS-C2960X-48TS-LL. The older model suits like-for-like legacy sparing; the current model is the endpoint for a replacement project requiring a supported generation.
