Product Overview

PoE and PoE+ Ports

The ports provide PoE+ support for devices compliant with IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at, and ePoE and also provide Cisco prestandard PoE support for Cisco IP Phones and Cisco Aironet Access Points.

The maximum switch power output is either 740 W or 370 W, depending on the switch model. Intelligent power management allows flexible power allocation across all ports.

For switches with a 740 W power budget, you can budget the PoE and PoE+:

15.4 W of PoE output on 48 ports

•

PoE and PoE+ Ports

10/100/1000 PoE+ ports6USB mini-Type B (console) port2

RJ-45 console port7USB Type A port3

Ethernet management port8USB Type A port4

30 W of PoE+ on 24 ports

•

For switches with a 370 W power budget, you can budget the PoE and PoE+:

15.4 W of PoE output on 24 ports

•

7.7 W of PoE output on 48 ports

•

30 W of PoE+ on 12 ports

•

Total power budget can be allocated among the ports

•

On a per-port basis, you control whether or not a port automatically provides power when an IP phone or an access point is connected.

The PoE ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.

Cisco intelligent power management capabilities include enhanced power negotiation, power reservation, and per-port power policing. For information about configuring and monitoring PoE ports, see the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com.

The output of the PoE circuit has been evaluated as a Limited Power Source (LPS) per IEC 60950-1.Note

10/100/1000 Ports

The 10/100/1000 ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.

Management Ports

USB Type A Port

The USB Type A port provides access to external USB flash devices (also known as thumb drives or USB keys).

The port supports Cisco USB flash drives with capacities from 128 MB to 8 GB (USB devices with port densities of 128 MB, 256 MB, 1 GB, 4 GB, and 8 GB are supported). When combined with stacking, you can upgrade other switches in the stack from an USB key inserted in any switch within the stack. Cisco IOS software provides standard file system access to the flash device: read, write, erase, and copy, as well as the ability to format the flash device with a FAT file system. It provides you with the ability to automatically upgrade the internal flash with the USB drive’s configuration and image for emergency switch recovery using USB auto-upgrade. This feature checks the internal flash for a bootable image and configuration and if either image or the configuration is not available, then the USB drive is checked for boot images and configuration. If the boot image and configuration are available, these are copied to flash for the reboot.

SFP and SFP+ Module Slots

USB Type A Port

LEDs

The switch has either two or four 1-Gigabit SFP or two 10-Gigabit SFP+ module slots. The slots marked SFP+ support both SFP and SFP+ modules. The SFP slots support only the SFP modules.

For Cisco SFP and SFP+ modules documentation, including compatibility matrixes, refer to this URL: http:/

/www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps5455/products_device_support_tables_list.html

You can use the switch LEDs to monitor switch activity and its performance.

If your switches are stacked and you press the Mode button on any switch, all the switches display the same selected mode. For example, if you press the Mode button on the stack master to display SPEED, all the other stack members display SPEED.

Even if PoE mode is not selected, this LED still shows PoE problems if they are detected.

The STACK LED shows the sequence of member switches in a stack. Up to eight switches can be members of a stack. The first eight port LEDs show the switch member number. For example, if you press the Mode button and select Stack, the port LED 1 blinks green. The LEDs for port 2 and 3 are solid green, as these represent the member numbers of other stack members. The other port LEDs are off because there are no more members in the stack.

This figure shows the LEDs on the first switch, which is stack member number 1.

Console LEDs

Rear Panel

When you select the STACK LED, the respective STACK LEDs are green when the stack ports (on the switch rear panel) are up, and the respective Stack LEDs are amber when the ports are down. SFP+ module port LEDs 1 and 2 on the switch show the status for stack ports 1 and 2, respectively.

If the port LEDs are green on all the switches in the stack, the stack is operating at full bandwidth. If any port LED is not green, the stack is not operating at full bandwidth.

The console LEDs show which console port is in use. If you connect a cable to a console port, the switch automatically uses that port for console communication. If you connect two console cables, the USB console port has priority.

Cisco RPS 2300

The Cisco RPS 2300 is a redundant power system that can support six external network devices and provide power to one or two failed devices at a time. It senses when the internal power supply of a connected device fails and provides power to the failed device, preventing loss of network traffic. For more information, see the Cisco Redundant Power System 2300 Hardware Installation Guide on Cisco.com at this URL: http://

www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps7148/prod_installation_guides_list.html

The Cisco RPS 2300 has two output levels: –52 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power of 2300 W.

All supported and connected switches can simultaneously communicate with the RPS 2300. You can configure these RPS 2300 features through the switch software:

Enable RPS active or standby mode for each connected switch

•

Configure switch priority for RPS support

•

List the connected switches and the power-supply module sizes

•

Obtain reports when a switch is powered by the RPS

•

Obtain status reports for the RPS power-supply module

•

Read and monitor backup, failure, and exception history

Product Overview

AC Power Connector

This applies to the Catalyst 2960-X switches.Note

The switch is powered through the internal power supply. The internal power supply is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. Use the supplied AC power cord to plug it into an AC power outlet.

Power Supply Modules (Applies to the Catalyst 2960-XR Switches)

The switch operates with either one or two active power supply modules. You can use two AC modules, or one module and a blank cover.

Note

The Catalyst 2960XR-48FPD-I and 2960XR-48FPS-I only support the PWR-C2-1025WAC power supply. You cannot use the PWR-C2-250WAC and PWR-C2-640WAC power supplies in these switches.
