WS-C2960X-48TS-L Overview
WS-C2960X-48TS-L is a Cisco Catalyst 2960-X Series managed Layer 3 access switch for dense Gigabit copper aggregation at the edge of an enterprise network. The chassis provides 48 1GbE RJ-45 access ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks for fiber handoff to distribution switches, with non-PoE operation for endpoints that use local power or separate injectors. Its 1U rack-mount form factor suits standard wiring closets and branch equipment racks where Cisco IOS LAN Base policy, segmentation, and monitoring are required. The fixed-configuration design uses a single internal AC power supply and keeps uplink selection tied to installed SFP transceivers rather than removable network modules. Compared with WS-C2960X-48LPS-L, which provides a documented 370W PoE budget, this model keeps the same 48-port copper density and four SFP uplink layout without PoE delivery.
216 Gbps switching capacity delivers full-duplex fabric headroom for the fixed copper and SFP interfaces. 107.1 Mpps forwarding rate handles small-packet access traffic across user, printer, camera, and infrastructure VLANs. 108 Gbps forwarding bandwidth supports bidirectional access-layer traffic before uplinks pass aggregated flows northbound. OSPF, RIP, and static routing support routed access designs in the LAN Base image, while STP, RSTP, MSTP, LACP, 802.1X, QoS, SPAN, BPDU Guard, private VLANs, and NetFlow Lite control access-layer behaviour. WS-C2960X-48TS-L carries 512 MB DRAM and 128 MB Flash for the documented LAN Base hardware profile. USB Type B and RJ-45 console ports provide local administration paths, and the management interfaces include USB Type A external storage plus a 10/100 Mbps RJ-45 network management port. A 16000-entry MAC table, 8000 ARP entries, 2000 IPv4 direct routes, 1023 active VLANs, 4096 available VLAN IDs, and 9216-byte jumbo Ethernet frames support segmented campus access deployments.
WS-C2960X-48TS-L operates at the enterprise access tier, connecting locally powered workstations, printers, cameras, phones with external power, and infrastructure devices before forwarding traffic into the distribution layer. FlexStack-Plus provides an eight-switch stack limit with 80 Gbps stack bandwidth, while FlexStack-Extended supports the same member limit with 40 Gbps stack bandwidth for longer closet-to-closet designs. The 1U chassis preserves rack capacity for patching, power, and fiber management, and the shallow non-PoE depth helps fit access cabinets with limited rear clearance. ORM Systems supplies this switch new and certified refurbished, with refurbished units tested for port operation, SFP recognition, IOS boot, console access, management reachability, and physical condition before dispatch. Request a quote for single-unit replacement, access closet expansion, or matched batch procurement, and volume buyers receive support for consistent condition, accessories, warranty terms, delivery scheduling, and staged campus refresh plans.
WS-C2960X-48TS-L price is $850.00, a 87.6% saving from the Cisco list price of $6,850.00. WS-C2960X-48TS-L is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

WS-C2960X-48TS-L Use Case
Access Closet Endpoint Handoff
WS-C2960X-48TS-L sits in a wiring closet and terminates copper runs from workstations, printers, cameras with local power, and non-PoE wireless infrastructure on 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports. Engineers place VLAN assignments, 802.1X policy, QoS markings, private VLAN controls, and NetFlow Lite visibility at the access layer, then forward uplink traffic through four fixed 1G SFP ports. The LAN Base image keeps this non-PoE edge aligned with routed access and Layer 2 segmentation needs. The result is high-density copper access with controlled endpoint policy and predictable distribution handoff.
Stacked Access Block Expansion
WS-C2960X-48TS-L joins a compatible Catalyst 2960-X LAN Base stack when an access closet needs more non-PoE copper density under one management plane. Engineers install the required FlexStack-Plus or FlexStack-Extended module, align IOS versions, and build a stack that shares configuration, a single management IP address, and coordinated uplink planning. Each added unit contributes 48 Gigabit access ports and four 1G SFP uplinks to the closet design. The result is controlled access-layer growth without redesigning endpoint cabling or multiplying switch administration points.
Access to Distribution Fiber Handoff
The switch occupies the access tier and presents endpoint VLAN traffic northbound through four fixed 1G SFP uplinks toward distribution switches. Engineers match Cisco-compatible SFP optics to the fiber plant, then configure trunks, routed access links, or EtherChannel according to the campus design. The non-PoE 48-port copper layout separates endpoint switching from power delivery, which keeps this model focused on data handoff rather than powered-device budgets. The result is a predictable 1G fiber handoff from dense copper access ports into the distribution layer.
