WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is a Layer 2+ managed access switch for buyers standardising on dense Cisco PoE+ edge connectivity. It provides 48 10/100/1000 RJ-45 access ports, 2 fixed 10G SFP+ uplink ports, PoE+ support, and a rack-mount 1U form factor in the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series. The switch runs the LAN Base software image and fits wiring closets that need Gigabit copper handoff with higher-speed fiber uplinks rather than a modular uplink bay. As a fixed-configuration model, the access and uplink layout is factory installed, while FlexStack-Plus remains an optional back-panel expansion path. The SKU is most differentiated by the 10G uplink pair and high PoE power class among 48-port LAN Base 2960-X options. WS-C2960X-48FPS-L is the closest same-power sibling, and its documented difference is four fixed 1G SFP uplinks instead of the two fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks on this model.
216 Gbps switching capacity delivers full-duplex headroom across the fixed copper access ports and SFP+ uplinks. 130.9 Mpps forwarding rate supports line-rate access switching for small-packet campus traffic. 740W PoE budget is allocated across standards-based powered endpoints, with Cisco documenting 24 ports at up to 30W PoE+ or 48 ports at up to 15.4W PoE. Static routing and RIPv1/v2 support place the platform in a Layer 2+ access role rather than an IP Lite aggregation role. WS-C2960X-48FPD-L carries 512 MB DRAM, 128 MB flash, a 16000-entry MAC table, 1023 active VLAN support, USB Type-B and RJ-45 console options, a USB Type-A storage interface, and a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet management port. STP/RSTP/MSTP, PVRST+, LACP, 802.1X, SNMP, NetFlow Lite, and Cisco EnergyWise cover access control, loop prevention, link aggregation, visibility, and power policy operations. Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco DNA Center, and Network Plug and Play support centralised rollout workflows when the required management licensing is in place.
At the enterprise access tier, this switch connects workstations, IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, printers, and other standards-based PoE endpoints before handing traffic to distribution over 10G fiber. FlexStack-Plus or FlexStack-Extended modules group as many as eight Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-XR switches under one stack design, while the chassis occupies one rack unit in a 19-inch cabinet. ORM Systems supplies WS-C2960X-48FPD-L new and certified refurbished for access refreshes, stack expansion, and spare-stock planning. Certified refurbished units receive port-level testing, uplink recognition checks, PoE output validation, fan inspection, management access checks, and configuration reset before dispatch. Request pricing from ORM Systems for single-unit replacement or multi-site rollouts; enterprise and volume buyers receive sourcing support for switches, stack modules, power cords, rack kits, optics, warranty requirements, and matched 2960-X estate continuity. Large orders align serialised inventory, accessory kits, and tested firmware baselines before shipment.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L price is $850.00, a 93.5% saving from the Cisco list price of $13,056.00. WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

WS-C2960X-48FPD-L sits in an access closet and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and wireless access points on 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports. Network teams assign VLANs, QoS policies, 802.1X controls, and PoE budgets at this layer, then forward northbound traffic through two 10G SFP+ uplinks. The LAN Base image anchors standard campus access switching while the 740W budget supports dense powered endpoint plans. The result is a powered access edge with controlled policy placement and predictable distribution handoff.
The switch occupies the access tier and presents aggregated endpoint traffic to distribution switches through two 10G SFP+ uplink slots. Engineers match SFP+ optics, fiber plant, and upstream port capacity to the closet design, then configure trunks, QoS trust boundaries, and EtherChannel where the distribution design uses paired uplinks. WS-C2960X-48FPD-L keeps 48 Gigabit PoE+ endpoint ports separate from the fiber handoff role. The result is a 10G access-to-distribution path that removes the uplink constraint common in older 1G access closets.
Several compatible Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-XR switches form a FlexStack-Plus access block when a wiring closet needs more powered copper ports under one operational view. WS-C2960X-48FPD-L contributes 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports and a 740W power budget per unit, while the optional C2960X-STACK module supports unified stack management and software alignment. Engineers standardise stack modules, stack cables, uplink allocation, VLAN templates, and PoE reservations before adding members. The result is higher access density with simpler switch administration across repeated closet builds.

Cisco WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is a Catalyst 2960-X fixed-configuration access switch with 48 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports, 2 10G SFP+ uplink slots, 740W available PoE power, and the Cisco IOS LAN Base feature set. It is designed for campus or branch access closets that need powered copper endpoints and higher-speed fiber uplinks.
The WS-C2960X-48FPD-L model string identifies a Cisco Catalyst 2960-X switch, 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports, full PoE budget, 10G SFP+ uplinks, and LAN Base software. In this family, FPD separates it from lower-power LPD models and from FPS models that use four 1G SFP uplinks instead of two 10G SFP+ uplinks.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is a managed Ethernet access switch, not a router, firewall, wireless controller, or optical transceiver. It terminates copper endpoint connections at the access layer, supplies PoE or PoE+ power to supported devices, and forwards traffic northbound through two SFP+ module slots used for fiber or short-reach uplink connectivity.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L sits in the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X access switching family, a fixed and stackable generation that followed older 2960-S deployments and preceded newer Catalyst 9200 access platforms. It is a LAN Base model, so it targets enterprise access switching rather than the IP Lite routing and modular power options found in Catalyst 2960-XR models.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L provides 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet access ports for copper endpoints and 2 SFP+ uplink module slots for 10G uplinks. The access ports support PoE and PoE+ power delivery. The SFP+ slots require compatible Cisco transceivers or cables selected for the upstream switch, distance, and fiber or copper media.
Cisco lists the WS-C2960X-48FPD-L with the 2960-X LAN Base performance profile, including 216 Gbps switching bandwidth, 108 Gbps forwarding bandwidth, and a 130.9 Mpps forwarding rate for 64-byte packets. Those figures suit high-density access closets where 48 Gigabit endpoints feed a pair of 10G distribution uplinks.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L has 740W of available PoE power from its fixed power supply. Cisco specifies support for 24 ports at up to 30W with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ or 48 ports at up to 15.4W with IEEE 802.3af PoE. The platform also supports dynamic PoE allocation and Perpetual PoE during reloads.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is primarily an access-layer switch running the Cisco IOS LAN Base feature set. It supports common enterprise access features such as VLANs, QoS, ACLs, 802.1X, and NetFlow Lite. Designs that require the 2960-XR IP Lite feature set, modular power, or broader routing functions should compare it with WS-C2960XR-48FPD-I.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is managed through Cisco IOS CLI, console access, web-based tools, SNMP, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco DNA Center, and Cisco Network Plug and Play where the required management platform licensing is present. Cisco also documents USB Type-B console, Ethernet management, and USB Type-A storage interfaces for Catalyst 2960-X switches.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L supports Cisco FlexStack-Plus with the optional C2960X-STACK module. Cisco documents FlexStack-Plus stacking for up to eight Catalyst 2960-X or 2960-XR switches with 80 Gbps stack throughput and single-unit management. Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base switches also support selected backward-compatible stacking with Catalyst 2960-S LAN Base models using FlexStack modules.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is used as an access switch for powered copper endpoints such as phones, wireless access points, surveillance cameras, printers, and user workstations. Its 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports concentrate endpoint traffic in a wiring closet, while the two 10G SFP+ uplinks carry aggregated traffic toward distribution or core switching layers.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L fits medium to large access closets that need 48 powered Gigabit ports in one switch and a 740W PoE budget. It also fits repeated branch or campus closet builds where network teams standardize on LAN Base features, optional FlexStack-Plus stacking, and 10G uplinks without moving to a Catalyst 2960-XR platform.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L suits access workloads that mix data, voice, wireless, and physical security endpoints on the same copper edge. The 740W budget supports dense PoE planning, and the two SFP+ uplinks help absorb traffic from Wi-Fi access points, IP phones, cameras, and workstations without limiting the closet to 1G uplink speeds.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L works well in access-to-distribution designs where a closet switch terminates 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports and hands traffic upward through two 10G SFP+ uplinks. Engineers typically configure VLAN trunks, EtherChannel where supported by the upstream design, QoS trust boundaries, and access security policies at this handoff point.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L supports standards-based IEEE 802.3af PoE and IEEE 802.3at PoE+ endpoints, including Cisco IP phones, Cisco Aironet wireless access points, security cameras, badge readers, and other compliant powered devices. The switch supplies up to 30W on supported PoE+ ports, subject to the total 740W budget and endpoint power negotiation.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L uses two SFP+ module slots for uplinks, so buyers commonly pair it with Cisco 10G SFP+ optics such as SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber or SFP-10G-LR for single-mode fiber when supported by the installed Cisco IOS release. Many access designs also validate 1G SFP options through Cisco compatibility documentation before ordering optics.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L integrates with Cisco IOS CLI workflows, SNMP monitoring, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco DNA Center, Cisco Network Plug and Play, and APIC-EM based provisioning environments. Prime Infrastructure, Network Plug and Play, and DNA Center usage can require separate licenses, so platform licensing should be planned alongside the hardware order.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L uses the optional C2960X-STACK FlexStack-Plus module for stacking. It stacks with compatible Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR models, and Cisco documents backward compatibility with Catalyst 2960-S and 2960-SF LAN Base switches using FlexStack modules. Mixed stacks should be checked for software image alignment and supported combinations before deployment.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L and WS-C2960X-48LPD-L both provide 48 10/100/1000 PoE+ access ports, 2 SFP+ uplink slots, LAN Base software, and FlexStack-Plus capability. The major difference is PoE power: WS-C2960X-48FPD-L provides 740W, while WS-C2960X-48LPD-L provides 370W. The FPD model suits denser PoE+ endpoint mixes in larger access closets.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L and WS-C2960X-48FPS-L both provide 48 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, 740W PoE power, LAN Base software, and FlexStack-Plus capability. The uplinks separate them: WS-C2960X-48FPD-L has 2 SFP+ uplink slots for 10G designs, while WS-C2960X-48FPS-L has 4 SFP uplink slots for 1G fiber designs instead today.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is the higher-density choice compared with WS-C2960X-24PD-L. The 48FPD model provides 48 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and 740W available PoE power, while the 24PD model provides 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports and 370W. Both use two SFP+ uplinks and LAN Base software for access-layer deployments.
Cisco positions the Catalyst 9200 Series as the newer access-switching direction after the 2960-X family. A model such as C9200L-48P-4X brings a newer platform, 48 PoE+ ports, and 10G uplink options, while WS-C2960X-48FPD-L remains relevant for like-for-like 2960-X spares, stack continuity, and LAN Base environments.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is no longer sold as new equipment by Cisco, so market availability usually depends on remaining new surplus, refurbished stock, or brokered supply. ORM Systems can quote the condition available at the time of enquiry, including refurbished units that fit 2960-X replacement projects and estate standardisation.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L price is affected by condition, tested status, cosmetic grade, included accessories, warranty term, quantity, and current supply of 2960-X hardware. Units with power cords, rack ears, stack modules, or optics may be quoted differently. Buyers comparing price should confirm whether the offer includes the switch only or a deployment-ready bundle.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X product family, which Cisco lists as end of sale with an end-of-sale date of 31 October 2022 and an end-of-support date of 31 October 2027. That status makes refurbished and secondary-market sourcing important for replacement, spares, and stack expansion projects.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L lead time depends on current stock, requested condition, testing workload, accessory requirements, and delivery country. Refurbished units often move faster when already tested and ready for dispatch. Larger orders, specific serial-number requirements, bundled optics, or stack modules can extend preparation time because each component needs verification before shipment.
Bulk discounts may be available for WS-C2960X-48FPD-L when buyers order multiple switches, combine accessories, or standardise a wider Catalyst 2960-X refresh. Quantity pricing is most useful for access closet rollouts because 48-port PoE+ switches, C2960X-STACK modules, optics, and support terms can be priced together as one project requirement.
ORM Systems offers warranty options for WS-C2960X-48FPD-L based on condition, availability, and order requirements, with up to three-year warranty coverage commonly used for enterprise hardware purchases. The quoted warranty should be checked alongside the unit condition, included accessories, and any project-specific support needs before the purchase order is approved.
Refurbished WS-C2960X-48FPD-L switches should be tested for boot status, port operation, PoE delivery, uplink recognition, fan and power behaviour, management access, and cosmetic condition before dispatch. A practical test plan also checks the Cisco IOS image, serial details, reset state, and any included stack module or optical transceiver.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L buyers should verify standards relevant to the deployment, including IEEE 802.3af PoE, IEEE 802.3at PoE+, Gigabit Ethernet, 10G SFP+ uplinks, VLAN tagging, and 802.1X access control. Site-specific safety, emissions, and country compliance requirements should be checked against Cisco regulatory documentation for the exact Catalyst 2960-X model.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L is typically prepared by connecting through the console, confirming the Cisco IOS LAN Base image, clearing old configuration where appropriate, assigning management access, creating VLANs, configuring trunks or EtherChannel uplinks, applying QoS and security policies, and validating PoE budgets. Stack members should be aligned on software before joining a FlexStack-Plus stack.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L ships as a LAN Base model, and Cisco states that LAN Lite cannot be upgraded to LAN Base and LAN Base cannot be upgraded to IP Lite on these models. Separate licensing may apply for Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Cisco Network Plug and Play, or Cisco DNA Center management use, depending on the operational environment.
WS-C2960X-48FPD-L deployments commonly require rack ears, power cords, console access, compatible SFP+ optics or cables, fiber patch leads, and labelled copper patching. Stacked designs also require C2960X-STACK FlexStack-Plus modules and stack cables. PoE-heavy closets should include endpoint power planning so the 740W budget is allocated before cutover.
UK buyers can purchase WS-C2960X-48FPD-L through ORM Systems for Catalyst 2960-X replacement, access-layer expansion, and spares requirements. ORM Systems can quote available condition, warranty options, compatible accessories, and quantity pricing for projects that need 48-port Gigabit PoE+ switching with two 10G SFP+ uplinks in UK network estates.
ORM Systems ships enterprise hardware internationally, subject to product availability, destination, logistics requirements, and any applicable export controls. International buyers ordering WS-C2960X-48FPD-L should confirm destination, requested condition, warranty preference, plug type, accessory bundle, and courier requirements so the quote reflects the complete deployment and delivery need.
