WS-C2960X-48TD-L Use Case
Campus High-Density Gigabit Access Deployment
A large university deploys WS-C2960X-48TD-L switches in wiring closets to deliver 48 GigE ports per closet and dual 10G SFP+ uplinks to the core. This setup scales to thousands of student and faculty devices with seamless VLAN segmentation and simplified L2/L3 management. Benefit: Maximized port density and low-latency throughput ensure reliable e-learning, VoIP and video streaming with 99.99% network availability.
Branch Office WAN Aggregation for Retail Chains
A nationwide retailer installs Catalyst 2960-X 48 GigE, 2×10G SFP+ LAN Base switches in each branch to aggregate POS terminals, IP cameras and guest Wi-Fi. Dual 10G uplinks connect to an MPLS backbone for fast, secure data backhauling. Benefit: Centralized management via Cisco DNA Center cuts branch provisioning time by 50%, while robust QoS and VLAN tagging guarantee transaction integrity and consistent customer experience.
Secure Edge Aggregation in Virtualized Server Rooms
An enterprise IT team uses the WS-C2960X-48TD-L at the edge of a virtualized server cluster to connect hypervisor hosts over 48 GigE ports and dual 10G links to the data-center core. Built-in LAN Base security policies and Cisco TrustSec VLANs enforce micro-segmentation. Benefit: Enhanced east-west traffic performance and hardware-accelerated ACLs reduce attack surface while supporting high-density VM east-west workloads.
