. Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series switch is the next generation of the world's most widely deployed access switches. It enables intelligent services such as application visibility; smart operations layer 3 routing & deliver best-in-class energy efficiency with up to 80 percent energy savings Key Product Info. Innovative energy saving hibernation modes that reduce energy consumption by up to 90% when the switch is not in use IEEE 802.3az EEE (Energy-Efficient Ethernet) enables dynamic power savings on all switch ports Auto Smart Ports automatically configures port settings based on device type for simplified configuration & rapid deployment Net Flow Lite detects IP packet types & provides enhanced visibility into the network I Pv 6 first hop security protects against IPv 6 address theft & malicious attacks One policy through integration with Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) simplifies policy management One management through integration with Cisco Prime provides ease of use Product Features Scalable The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series switch is scalable & resilient. With Cisco Flex Stack-Plus stacking which allows stacking of up to 8 switches & delivers 80 Gbps of stacking bandwidth the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X enables ease of operation & management with a single configuration across the members of the stack. The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series is resilient with control plane redundancy across Flex Stack-Plus switches. This minimizes traffic disruption if any stack member fails. Smart The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series enable intelligent access services application visibility & control & best-in-class energy management. Build for application visibility & control these switches support Net Flow-Lite which can be used to monitor capture & record traffic flows through the network. With industry-leading energy management capabilities such as Cisco Energy Wise to measure & control power usage Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) & Switch & Downlink Hibernation modes to conserve power during periods of inactivity in the network the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X with up to 80 percent energy savings is the greenest switch in the industry. Simple Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series switch is simple to deploy manages & troubleshoots. As part of the Cisco Unified Access portfolio the Cisco Catalyst 2960-X series switch is fully integrated with Cisco Prime to offer simple operation from a central location. It can also be managed by Cisco Network Assistant which features an intuitive GUI where users can easily apply common services across Cisco switches & routers.
