Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960X-48FPS-L 48-Port Gigabit PoE Managed Switch 2x SFP Wty
Cisco Catalyst 2960X-48FPS-L — 48-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch
The Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960X-48FPS-L is a 48-port Gigabit managed switch with full PoE+ across every port (740W power budget), SFP fibre uplinks and FlexStack-Plus stacking. A dependable enterprise access-layer switch for offices powering IP phones, cameras and access points — backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
- 48 × Gigabit PoE+ Ports: Every port delivers PoE+ (up to 30W) with a 740W total budget — power IP phones, Wi-Fi APs and cameras straight from the switch.
- SFP Fibre Uplinks: 1G SFP uplink ports for fibre connections to the core or between buildings.
- FlexStack-Plus Stacking: Stack up to eight switches to manage them as a single unit and scale as you grow.
- Full Layer 2 Management: LAN Base software with VLANs, QoS and security — managed via web GUI or Cisco CLI.
- Energy Efficient: IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces power draw during low-traffic periods.
- Rack-Mountable: A standard 1U rack form factor for comms cabinets and server rooms.
Performance in Use
The 2960X-48FPS-L is a workhorse access-layer switch for small and medium business networks. With 48 Gigabit ports and full PoE+ on every one, it powers a floor of IP phones, wireless access points and security cameras directly — no separate power injectors or midspans, and no cable clutter.
As a fully managed switch it gives IT complete control: VLAN segmentation, QoS for voice and video, port security and monitoring, all configurable through the intuitive web GUI or the full Cisco command line. That makes it equally suitable for a first managed switch or a Cisco-standardised environment.
FlexStack-Plus lets you stack up to eight units and administer them as one logical switch, so the network scales cleanly as the business grows. The SFP uplinks provide fibre connectivity to the core or between buildings, and 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet trims power use when links are quiet.

Is It Right for You?
|
✓ Best For: • Powering IP phones, Wi-Fi APs and cameras (PoE+) • Small/medium business access-layer networking • Cisco-standardised or first managed-switch sites • Fibre uplinks and stacked, scalable deployments |
✗ Not For: • Networks needing 10G copper uplinks • Layer 3 routing-heavy cores (this is LAN Base L2) • Homes wanting a simple unmanaged switch • Deployments requiring current-generation warranty/support |
Condition Grades
| Grade | Cosmetic Condition | Functional Testing |
|---|---|---|
| A — Excellent | Minimal rack marks; clean chassis and ports | All ports, PoE and management verified |
| B — Good | Light rack wear, minor surface marks | All ports, PoE and management verified |
Frequently Asked Questions
Do all 48 ports support PoE?
Yes — this is the "Full PoE" (FPS) model: every one of the 48 Gigabit ports supports PoE+ (up to 30W), with a 740W total power budget shared across the switch.
What are the uplinks?
Four 1-Gigabit SFP slots for fibre uplinks to your core switch or between buildings (SFP modules not included).
Can I stack multiple switches?
Yes — it supports Cisco FlexStack-Plus, letting you stack up to eight switches and manage them as a single unit.
Is it a Layer 3 switch?
It runs LAN Base software — full Layer 2 management (VLANs, QoS, security) with limited static routing. For heavy inter-VLAN routing, pair it with a Layer 3 core.
How is it managed?
Through the web GUI or the full Cisco command-line interface (CLI), suitable for both newcomers and experienced network admins.
What are the shipping options?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
Warranty & After-Sales Support
Every Cisco Catalyst 2960X sold by Reboot IT includes a 12-month warranty covering hardware defects. Each switch is tested — all ports, PoE and management verified — before dispatch.
