WS-C2960XR-48TS-I is a managed Layer 3 access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Cisco Catalyst 2960-XR Series hardware occupies 1U in a rack and serves campus and branch access networks with the IP Lite feature set. Connected endpoints require their own power because this model does not provide PoE. The discontinued WS-C2960XR-48LPS-I differs by supplying PoE+ from a shared 370W budget. The data-only configuration separates Ethernet connectivity from endpoint power provisioning, while its built-in uplink cages avoid the need for a removable network card to provide uplink ports.
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I price for new stock is $1,716.75. WS-C2960XR-48TS-I refurb price is $162.75. WS-C2960XR-48TS-I is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

216 Gbps switching capacity provides full-duplex switching bandwidth, while 107.1 Mpps forwarding performance covers 64-byte Layer 3 packets. OSPFv2 Stub, OSPFv3 Stub and EIGRP Stub support routed access; EIGRP functionality is limited to Stub operation. Static routing, RIPv1, RIPv2 and RIPng provide additional routing options, with HSRP and VRRP supporting gateway redundancy. WS-C2960XR-48TS-I combines 512 MB of DRAM with 128 MB of flash for software operation and storage. The Catalyst 2960 family also provides 4 MB of egress buffering for queued traffic. The default SDM allocation accommodates 16000 MAC addresses, and RSTP, MSTP and cross-stack EtherChannel support loop control and aggregated connections. Management uses Cisco Configuration Professional web access or the CLI through SSH and Telnet. 45W measured consumption at full traffic with Energy Efficient Ethernet enabled provides a load reference; the PWR-C2-250WAC supply's 250W rating is not the switch's operating draw. Cooling uses a fan integrated into the power supply rather than a fanless enclosure.

When an access replacement must preserve both IPv4 and IPv6 routing, the default IP Lite SDM template supports both address families. Its IPv4 allocation includes 4000 direct routes and 1250 indirect routes. The IPv4-only template removes IPv6 routing resources, so specify the required address families and SDM allocation before the PO.
When an existing stack must extend between wiring closets, FlexStack-Extended operates at 40 Gbps and requires Cisco IOS 15.2(6)E or later. C2960X-FIBER-STK provides two fiber stacking interfaces; C2960X-HYBRID-STK combines copper and fiber stacking interfaces. Specify the module configuration, compatible optics and software baseline before ordering the extension hardware.
When switches require staging before shipment, the USB Type A storage interface supports external flash storage, while USB Type B and RJ-45 console connections provide local access. Separate storage media from console accessories on the purchase order, and specify the intended software image and configuration baseline before staging begins.
PoE power for connected endpoints
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I supplies no endpoint power. C9200-48P is a current 48-port PoE+ alternative for buyers replacing separate endpoint power arrangements with switch-provided power.
10G uplinks to distribution
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I provides four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. Its hardware does not include 10G SFP+ uplinks or a removable uplink card bay.
Cisco support beyond October 2027
Cisco support for WS-C2960XR-48TS-I ends October 31, 2027. C9200-48T is the current replacement for a hardware refresh beyond that support window.

WS-C2960XR-48TS-I identifies the Catalyst 2960-XR family, 48 Ethernet access ports, a data-only configuration with four 1G SFP uplinks, and IP Lite. The WS-C2960XR prefix identifies the family, 48 identifies port count, TS identifies the data-port and SFP-uplink configuration, and I identifies the software feature set.
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I supports Cisco Configuration Professional web management, CLI access through SSH or Telnet, and RJ-45 or USB console access. An external USB Bluetooth dongle enables wireless CLI and browser access. Network management options include Cisco DNA Center, Cisco Prime Infrastructure and Network Plug and Play through APIC-EM or Cisco DNA Center.
Yes, WS-C2960XR-48TS-I reached end of sale on October 31, 2022, and its last date of Cisco support is October 31, 2027. Software maintenance releases ended October 31, 2023. Security support continues through October 31, 2027, subject to applicable coverage; C9200-48T is the replacement.
ORM Systems offers WS-C2960XR-48TS-I new sealed with up to a three-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to one year. Every condition has 30-day returns, terms apply. Cisco's separate Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty is for eligible original owners, with Cisco service and warranty support ending no later than October 31, 2027.
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I operates with hardware-bound IP Lite without a mandatory subscription. Optional Cisco DNA Essentials has three-year and five-year terms, with a three-year minimum; Cisco ONE Foundation is another Full Flexible NetFlow entitlement. Manage subscription expiration through a Smart Account, and deactivate expired add-ons before reloading to retain base capabilities.
Yes, WS-C2960XR-48TS-I supports eight-member FlexStack-Plus stacks at 80 Gbps with C2960X-STACK installed. Copper stacking cable options are CAB-STK-E-0.5M, CAB-STK-E-1M and CAB-STK-E-3M for 0.5 m, 1 m and 3 m connections. Stack partners must be Catalyst 2960-XR IP Lite models, not Catalyst 2960-X or Catalyst 2960-S/SF models.
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I ships with one PWR-C2-250WAC AC power supply, and a second PWR-C2-250WAC is optional for internal power redundancy. The second supply is not standard equipment. Each power supply includes an integrated fan, so orders requiring redundant power must specify the additional PWR-C2-250WAC rather than assume both bays are populated.
The 48-port Gigabit Catalyst 2960-XR configuration represented by WS-C2960XR-48TS-I provides four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. These are built-in uplink cages, not ports supplied by a removable network card. The configuration does not provide 10G SFP+ uplinks, so confirm that the distribution connection requires 1G before specifying this model.
Yes, Catalyst 2960-XR switches with IP Lite support IPv4 and IPv6 routing, including OSPFv2 Stub, OSPFv3 Stub and EIGRP Stub. The default SDM template supports both address families. The IPv4-only template supports a total of 24000 IPv4 unicast routes but removes IPv6 routing resources, so template selection changes the available routing mix.
WS-C2960XR-48LPS-I supplies PoE+ from a shared 370W budget, while WS-C2960XR-48TS-I supplies no endpoint power. Both models are discontinued. The data-only model suits legacy replacements where endpoints have separate power; the PoE+ model serves legacy installations requiring Ethernet-delivered power, with endpoint demand constrained by the shared budget.
WS-C2960XR-48TS-I provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports, while WS-C2960XR-24TS-I provides 24. Both models are discontinued. The 48-port version suits legacy replacement orders needing the higher connection count; the 24-port version suits smaller legacy installations where the required copper access connections fit within its lower port count.
C9200-48T is the current replacement for discontinued WS-C2960XR-48TS-I, rather than another Catalyst 2960-XR variant. WS-C2960XR-48TS-I suits like-for-like legacy sparing within its October 31, 2027 support window; C9200-48T addresses a hardware refresh. Both provide 48 data-only access ports, so lifecycle transition distinguishes this purchasing comparison rather than endpoint power delivery.
The 48-port non-PoE Catalyst 2960-XR switch WS-C2960XR-48TS-I consumes a measured 45W at full traffic and 30W at zero traffic with EEE enabled. Its maximum apparent-power rating is 0.046 kVA, which is not a wattage figure. The PWR-C2-250WAC supply rating must not be treated as actual switch consumption.
Yes, WS-C2960XR-48TS-I has a full-width 1U rack-mount chassis measuring 44.5 mm high, 445 mm wide and 408 mm deep, with a 6 kg weight. Power supplies can add 79 mm to chassis depth. RCKMNT-1RU-2KX= is the spare rack-mount kit, so confirm mounting accessories and rear clearance before ordering.
