The Cisco Catalyst Compact 2960CPD-8PT-L is a managed switch designed for compact deployments and environments with limited space. It features eight Fast Ethernet ports and is suitable for desktop mounting. This switch is part of Cisco’s well-known Catalyst 2960 series, which is recognised for its reliability and scalability in small to medium-sized networks. The 2960CPD-8PT-L is also capable of supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it an ideal choice for applications where devices such as IP phones or wireless access points need to be powered through the network connection, without separate power adapters.
This switch operates in environments where space is at a premium, and its low-profile compact design makes it easy to place unobtrusively on a desk or within a small wiring enclosure. Two of the eight ports are configured as dual-purpose uplink ports, which allow administrators the flexibility to use either Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet, depending on network requirements. Furthermore, the 2960CPD-8PT-L is capable of being powered through PoE from an upstream switch, meaning it can be deployed without a separate power supply in certain situations.
With advanced security features such as access control lists (ACLs), Quality of Service (QoS), along with configurations geared towards energy efficiency, the Cisco Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L is well-suited for modern network infrastructures. Additionally, it offers simplified management through Cisco’s management solutions, ensuring that network administrators can easily monitor and configure the device as needed. This ensures efficient network updates and maintenance while maintaining high performance in small or remote deployments.
