Cisco Catalyst 2960-S and 2960 Series Switches
The cisco borderless network architecture delivers the new workplace experience, connecting everyone, anytime using any computer, safely, efficiently, and transparently to any resource. The Cisco borderline network architecture tackles the IT and business issues to help create a genuinely borderless environment by taking interactions closer to both the employee and the client.
Only with intelligent network components built and architecture to meet a global workspace’s needs will the borderless experience be possible. Cisco Network Access is a primary component of this architecture, enabling various borderless network services such as mobility, security, EnergyWise, and operational ease for improved productivity and performance.
Cisco Network Access for Borderless Approach focuses on:
- Sustainability
- Fast to run
- Security Without boundaries
- Experience without limits
Sustainability
Cisco Catalyst switching solutions allow for greener practices through measurable power efficiency, integrated services, and continuous innovation. Cisco EnergyWise is a company-wide system that tracks and tracks and conserves energy with customized policies.
Cisco EnergyWise technology and Cisco Catalyst switches together to reduce greenhouse gas ( GHG ) emissions and improve savings in energy costs and sustainable business behavior. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-S and 2960 Series Switches’Switches’ sustainability capabilities include the following sets of features:
- Technology Cisco EnergyWise
- Successful turnaround process
- Smart Power Control
Cisco EnergyWise software
Cisco EnergyWise is a revolutionary architecture, applied to fixed-configuration switches, promoting sustainability within the organization by reducing energy consumption across the entire corporate infrastructure and affecting more than 50 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions from the worldwide building system, a far more significant impact than the 2 percent produced by the IT industry.
Cisco Energy Wise enables companies to measure network infrastructure and network-attached devices’ devices’ power consumption and manage power consumption through specific policies, reducing power consumption to achieve increased cost savings, potentially affecting any powered device. Energy Wise encompasses a highly intelligent network-based approach to communicate messages between network devices and endpoints that measure and control energy.
The network discovers devices manageable by Cisco Energy Wise technology their power consumption and acts to reduce power consumption based on the business rules. Energy Wise uses a unique domain-naming system for querying and summarising information from large device sets, making it simpler than traditional network management capabilities. The management interfaces of Cisco Energy Wise enable facilities and network management applications to communicate with endpoints, using the network as a unifying fabric to each other. The management interface uses standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) or TCP to integrate Cisco and third parties’ management systems.
Effective Service Turn
The Cisco Catalyst 2960-S and 2960 Series Switches, developed and engineered by Cisco, provide maximum power savings, low power operations for industry best-in-class power control, and power consumption capabilities. The Catalyst 2960-S ports can reduce power modes so that unused ports can switch to a lower power state utilization.
Catalyst Smart Power over Ethernet Control
The Cisco Catalyst 2960 Series PoE models support the latest PoE devices, including Cisco IP phones and Cisco Aironet WLAN access points, providing up to 15,4W of power per connexion and any end device compliant with IEEE 802.3af.
Per-port power consumption order, customers may determine the maximum power setting on a single port.
- Cisco Discovery Protocol Version 2 enables switches to negotiate a more granular power environment when connecting to a Cisco controlled unit, such as IP phones or access points than the IEEE classification does.

Fast to run
The 2960-S and 2960 Series Cisco Catalyst switches help to minimize the operating costs by:
- Cisco Catalyst Intelligent Operations
- Simple use of deployment and control functions.
- Modern, smart grid control software
Intelligent operations Cisco Catalyst:
Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations is a robust collection of LAN deployment, setup, and troubleshooting capabilities. Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations allow for zero-touch installation and switch replacement, fast update, and simple troubleshooting with a reduced operating cost. Cisco Catalyst Smart Operations is a collection of features to improve operational excellence, including Smart Update, Auto Smart ports, Smart Setup, and Smart Troubleshooting:
- Cisco Smart Install is a simple plug-and-play system for configuring the picture and changing the configuration of the Cisco IOS app without any user interaction. Smart Install makes use of dynamic IP address allocation and other transfer assistance to promote the installation of transparent network plug-in and playback.
- Cisco Auto Smart ports offers automatic setup as devices attach to the switch port, allowing the computer to be automatically identified, inserted, and played into the network.Simple to use Functions for deployment and control
- Auto-negotiation on all ports selects the half- or full-duplex transmission mode automatically to optimize bandwidth.
- The Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP) facilitates the dynamic trunk configuration overall switch ports.
- Simple use of deployment and control functions.
- Modern, smart grid control software
