Catalyst 2960 8-Port Managed Switch

The EVESKY WS-C2960-8TC-L is a rack-mountable managed switch from the Catalyst 2960 series. It delivers eight 10/100 Ethernet ports and one dual-purpose uplink combining a 10/100/1000 copper interface with an SFP slot. The unit fits a standard 1U rack space and runs LAN Base software.

Suitable for basic managed access layer deployments

This switch suits networks that need managed 10/100 connectivity for up to eight devices with a single Gigabit uplink option. It is not for environments requiring Power over Ethernet, all-Gigabit port density, Layer 3 routing features, or higher port counts.

Dual-purpose uplink defines uplink flexibility

The single dual-purpose uplink provides either a 10/100/1000 copper connection or an SFP-based Gigabit link, with only one medium active at a time. This constraint determines whether the switch can meet your aggregation or fibre uplink requirements.

Questions about this item

Will the 10/100 ports bottleneck sustained traffic on the 1000 uplink?

The eight 10/100 ports each top out at 100 Mbps, so aggregate inbound traffic can exceed the single gigabit uplink during heavy sustained loads.

How much heat and noise does the 1U rackmount chassis produce when running continuously?

The 1.73 x 10.6 x 6.4 in enclosure uses passive cooling; it generates minimal audible noise and modest heat suitable for a ventilated rack.

What SFP transceiver must I already own to activate the gigabit uplink?

The dual-purpose uplink accepts any standard SFP module; one SFP transceiver is required to use the fiber Gigabit Ethernet port.
