Managed Enterprise Access for Separately Powered Endpoints

WS-C2960X-24TD-L is a managed Layer 3 access switch with 24 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and two fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. The non-PoE configuration serves separately powered endpoints, and its uplinks do not require a removable network module. A 1U rack-mount chassis places this Catalyst 2960-X configuration in campus and branch access installations, with LAN Base determining its software feature set. The discontinued WS-C2960X-24PD-L adds PoE+ from a shared 370W budget for installations that power endpoints through Ethernet. The Cisco Catalyst 2960X-24TD-L configuration operates on Cisco IOS rather than IOS XE, so replacement orders should match the software environment already deployed. Copper endpoint connections and fiber uplink connections require separate cabling and compatibility checks when assembling the purchase order.

WS-C2960X-24TD-L price for new stock is $838.95, a 86.4% saving from the Cisco list price of $6,183.00. WS-C2960X-24TD-L refurb price is $123.90. WS-C2960X-24TD-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

216 Gbps switching capacity provides the full-duplex switching bandwidth for access and uplink traffic. 95.2 Mpps forwarding performance for 64-byte Layer 3 packets gives a packet-rate reference for traffic sizing. OSPF for Routed Access, OSPFv3, static routing, and RIPv1/RIPv2 support routed-access configurations; PBR provides policy-based forwarding. Working state resides in 512 MB DRAM, while 128 MB flash supports software and local storage. WS-C2960X-24TD-L accommodates 16000 unicast MAC addresses, allowing endpoint populations to be checked against its address scale. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series supports 1023 active VLANs, so VLAN inventories require separate sizing from the address table. 33.1W measured consumption at 100% traffic with EEE enabled informs electrical planning without representing a guaranteed maximum draw. At elevations to 3000 m, the operating range narrows to -5°C through 40°C, making site altitude relevant to enclosure temperature planning.

Ordering

ORM supplies WS-C2960X-24TD-L new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify this switch's condition, quantity, and accessories on the purchase order. New orders include up to a 3-year extended warranty; certified refurbished orders include up to 1 year, and every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply.

WS-C2960X-24TD-L Use Case

High-Performance Edge Deployment for Branch Offices

In a distributed enterprise with 50+ remote sites, the WS-C2960X-24TD-L serves as the primary edge switch connecting workstations, VoIP phones, and video conferencing endpoints. Its 24 GigE ports accommodate high-density access while two 10G SFP+ uplinks ensure low-latency aggregation to the core. Benefit: Delivers consistent, high-throughput performance with QoS-driven traffic prioritization, minimizing latency for unified communications and boosting remote-office productivity.

Top-of-Rack Switching for Virtualized Server Clusters

In small to mid-sized data centers running VMware or Hyper-V environments, the WS-C2960X-24TD-L is deployed as a top-of-rack switch to aggregate server traffic. All 24 GigE ports handle east-west VM-to-VM flows, while dual 10G SFP+ uplinks connect to the aggregation layer. Benefit: Simplifies cabling, maximizes east-west throughput, and reduces capex/opex by leveraging LAN Base management and resilient hardware to support virtualization growth.

Secure VLAN Segmentation for Campus and IoT Networks

In university campuses or manufacturing plants, the WS-C2960X-24TD-L enforces network segmentation using IEEE 802.1Q VLAN trunking and ACLs across its 24 GigE ports, isolating administrative, guest and IoT zones (e.g., surveillance cameras, sensors). Two 10G SFP+ uplinks tie each segment to the distribution layer. Benefit: Strengthens security and compliance with granular traffic isolation, simplifies policy enforcement, and scales seamlessly to support expanding IoT and guest-access demands.

Best For

Legacy Hardware Refresh

When replacing a discontinued WS-C2960S-24TD-L, this model is its named replacement, but the predecessor's Cisco support ended November 30, 2020. Treat the purchase as a legacy hardware refresh rather than a transition to a current generation. Confirm the installed configuration, required condition, and replacement quantity before issuing the PO.

Mixed Stack Extension

When extending an existing Catalyst 2960-S/SF LAN Base stack, mixed membership limits the stack to four switches and 40 Gbps. Catalyst 2960-XR IP Lite members cannot join that LAN Base stack. Inventory existing members and software levels, then specify C2960X-STACK for the added switch before the purchase order.

Replacement Bench Staging

Before staged replacements enter service, the dedicated 10/100 Mbps management interface supports a separate management connection while RJ-45 or USB console access handles initial configuration. Keep console-cable selection explicit: CAB-CONSOLE-RJ45 and CAB-CONSOLE-USB are separate options. Specify the chosen console connection and staging configuration before the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

Ethernet power for connected endpoints

WS-C2960X-24TD-L provides data connections without PoE output. C9200L-24P-4X-E supplies PoE+ on 24 access ports and also changes the uplink configuration to four fixed 10G connections.

Two internal power supply bays

WS-C2960X-24TD-L has one fixed internal supply, not a second internal bay. C9200L-24T-4X-E accepts a second PWR-C5-125WAC for internal power redundancy; specify the additional supply separately.

Cisco support beyond October 2027

WS-C2960X-24TD-L reaches final Cisco support on October 31, 2027. C9200L-24T-4X-E is the current Network Essentials ordering option for its C9200L-24T-4X replacement, with four fixed 10G uplinks.

C9200L-24T-4X-E provides four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks, while WS-C2960X-24TD-L has two. WS-C2960X-24TD-L is discontinued, and the Catalyst 9200L is its current replacement configuration. The successor suits orders requiring four uplink connections; the older model suits like-for-like legacy spares within its remaining support period.

How many switches can WS-C2960X-24TD-L stack with?

WS-C2960X-24TD-L supports eight-member FlexStack-Plus stacks at 80 Gbps with optional C2960X-STACK modules. Cable options are CAB-STK-E-0.5M, CAB-STK-E-1M, and CAB-STK-E-3M. Mixed Catalyst 2960-S/SF LAN Base stacks drop to four members and 40 Gbps; Catalyst 2960-XR IP Lite members cannot join the LAN Base stack.

Which uplinks does WS-C2960X-24TD-L provide?

WS-C2960X-24TD-L provides two fixed 10G SFP+ uplink cages rather than a removable uplink network module. Specify compatible transceivers against the required link speed, fiber type, connector, and reach. The uplink connections are separate from the copper access interfaces and from any optional stacking connections.

Does WS-C2960X-24TD-L support routing between VLANs?

Yes, WS-C2960X-24TD-L supports Layer 3 routing with LAN Base, including OSPF for Routed Access, OSPFv3, static routing, RIPv1, RIPv2, and PBR. VLAN-based routing designs also share the 1023-active-VLAN limit. EIGRP Stub belongs to the Catalyst 2960-XR feature set, not this LAN Base configuration, so confirm protocol requirements before standardizing the image.

What size is WS-C2960X-24TD-L?

WS-C2960X-24TD-L is a 1U rack-mount switch measuring 45 mm high, 445 mm wide, and 279 mm deep, with a weight of 4 kg. RCKMNT-1RU-2KX= is the spare rack-mount kit for this family; specify whether mounting hardware must accompany the selected condition on the purchase order.
