Features and Benefits
Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series Switches with LAN Base software provide:
●
Exceptional performance : Today’s workers run multiple resource-intensive applications,
placing higher demands on networks than ever before. Within the space of just a few
minutes, for example, a single worker might join an online multimedia conference, send a
10-MB spreadsheet to meeting participants, broadcast a marketing video for the team to
evaluate, and query a sales application for the latest real-time data. The Cisco Catalyst
2960 Series supports speeds of up to 1000 Mbps to the desktop, providing the bandwidth
you need to meet rigorous application demands, alleviate bottlenecks, and boost application
performance--enhancing the productivity of your employees while increasing the return on
your existing infrastructure and application investments.
●
Power over Ethernet : Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series Switches simplify the deployment of
solutions such as wireless LANs, IP telephony systems, and IP video surveillance cameras
by delivering simultaneously full 15.4W for up to 24 ports simultaneously. This capability
eliminates the need for separate power supplies for Ethernet-powered devices, as well as
the costs of running additional cable and circuits. The switches also provide intelligent,
integrated PoE management features that give you greater visibility into and control over
your power usage and streamline interoperability in multivendor networks.
●
Cisco Energywise Technology : Cisco EnergyWise is an innovative architecture
embedded in the Cisco Catalyst 2960 switches that enables the measurement of power
consumption in the network infrastructure and network attached devices. The network
discovers Cisco EnergyWise manageable devices, monitors their power consumption, and
takes action based on business rules to reduce power consumption. Cisco EnergyWise
helps to manage power consumption resulting in company-wide optimized power delivery
and reduced energy costs. Together, Cisco EnergyWise technology and Catalyst switches
help reduce Greenhouse Gas (GhG) emissions, optimize power consupmtion and increase
energy cost savings.
●
Enhanced security : Modern businesses face both more serious security threats and more
demanding regulatory compliance requirements than ever before. The Cisco Catalyst 2960
Series with LAN Base software provides a wide range of security features to protect your
business’ important information, keep unauthorized users off the network, guard privacy,
and protect against network downtime due to security breaches. Key features, including:

●
Advanced QoS intelligence : The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series with LAN Base software
supports advanced QoS traffic shaping and policing features that give you optimal flexibility
in classifying and prioritizing the traffic on your network. For example, you can prioritize
traffic from mission-critical applications such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) and
voice systems over less delay-sensitive traffic, reducing network congestion and ensuring
baseline performance for the most essential applications. The switches also support rate-
limiting features that allow you to allocate guaranteed bandwidth to specific applications and
users in increments as small as 1 Mbps. Administrators can easily configure these features
through tools such as automatic QoS (Auto QoS), which detects Cisco IP phones and
automatically configures the switch for the appropriate QoS.
●
Superior manageability : The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series with LAN Base software provides
several management options. The Express Setup feature and the Cisco Network Assistant
management tool provide intuitive, scalable management features to help you easily deploy
and operate your network.. Express Setup feature allows you to set up the switch with a
web-based brower eliminating need for CLI. Using the Cisco Network Assistant’s PC-based
simple graphical interface, wizards, and Cisco SmartPorts tools, you can quickly configure
all your Cisco switches, routers, and wireless access points in your network. Cisco Network
Assistant includes the Cisco Troubleshooting Advisor, which identifies cabling problems,
common configuration errors, and other potential problems in the network and recommends
corrective action. For more extensive management, the switches also support configuration
and integration with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)-based network
management platforms, such as the CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS).

Note: All power consumption numbers were measured under controlled laboratory conditions
and are provided as an estimate.
The wattage rating on the power supply does not represent actual power draw. It indicates the
maximum power draw possible by the power supply. This rating can be used for facility capacity
planning. For PoE switches, cooling requirements are smaller than the actual power consumption
as a significant portion of PoE loads are dissipated in the end points.
Non PoE Power Consumption
100% Throughput Switch Power consumption
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical switch under normal conditions. Normal
conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860
to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30 to 75%. Typically such power draws are only seen
when encountering a 100% traffic load made up entirely of 64 byte packets on the switch and the
uplinks.

5% Throughput Switch Power consumption
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical switch under normal conditions. Normal
conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860
to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30 to 75%. The numbers below indicate a 5% traffic
load on the switch and its uplinks.
PoE Power Consumption
100% Throughput Switch Power consumption (no PoE loads)
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical switch under normal conditions. Normal
conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860
to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30 to 75%. Typically such power draws are only seen
when encountering a 100% traffic load made up entirely of 64 byte packets with no PoE loads on
the switch and uplinks.
Measured 5% Throughput Switch Power consumption (no PoE loads)
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical switch under normal conditions. Normal
conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860
to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30 to 75%. The numbers below indicate a 5% traffic
load on the switch and its uplinks.
100% Throughput Switch Power consumption (with maximum PoE loads)
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical system (the switch and the corresponding
PoE loads) under normal conditions. Normal conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees
Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860 to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30
to 75%. Typically this power draw is realized when a switch is running 100% traffic load of 64 byte
sized packets on all its ports and uplinks and also drawing 100% PoE load.
5% Throughput Switch Power consumption (with 50% PoE loads)
The numbers indicate the power consumed by a typical system (the switch and the corresponding
PoE loads) under normal conditions. Normal conditions signify a temperature of 25 Degrees
Celsius, atmospheric pressure in the range of 860 to 1060 mbar and relative Humidity between 30
to 75%. The numbers below indicate a 5% traffic load and 50% PoE load on the switch and its
uplinks.
