Robust Security
The Cisco Catalyst 2960-Plus Series Switches provide a range of security features to limit access to the network and mitigate threats, including:
• Features to control access to the network, including Flexible Authentication, 802.1x Monitor Mode, and RADIUS Change of Authorization
• Threat defense features including Port Security, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and IP Source Guard
• Private VLAN Edge to provide isolation between switch ports
For more information about Cisco security solutions, visit cisco.com/go/trustsec. Enterprise-Class Quality of Service
The Cisco 2960-Plus Series Switches offer intelligent traffic management that keeps everything flowing smoothly. Flexible mechanisms for marking, classification, and scheduling deliver superior performance for data, voice, and video traffic, all at wire speed. Primary QoS features include:
• Four egress queues per port and strict priority queuing so that the highest priority packets are serviced ahead of all other traffic
• Shaped Round Robin (SRR) scheduling and Weighted Tail Drop (WTD) congestion avoidance
• Flow-based rate limiting and up to 64 aggregate or individual policers per port
• 802.1p class of service (CoS) and differentiated services code point (DSCP) field classification, with marking and reclassification on a per-packet basis by source and destination IP address, MAC address, or Layer 4 TCP/UDP port number
Cisco Catalyst SmartOperations
Cisco Catalyst SmartOperations is a comprehensive set of capabilities that simplify LAN planning, deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting. Deploying SmartOperations tools reduces the time and effort required to operate the network and lowers total cost of ownership (TCO).
• Cisco Smart Install enables zero-touch deployment by providing automated Cisco IOS Software image installation and configuration when new switches are connected to the network.
• Cisco Auto Smartports enables automatic configuration of switch ports as devices connect to the switch, with settings optimized for the device type.
• Cisco Smart Troubleshooting is an extensive array of diagnostic commands and system health checks within the switch, including Smart Call Home.
For more information about Cisco Catalyst SmartOperations, visit cisco.com/go/smartoperations. Cisco EnergyWise
Cisco EnergyWise ™ empowers IT teams to measure and manage the power consumed by devices connected to the network, providing measurable energy savings and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. EnergyWise policies can be used to control the power consumed by PoE-powered endpoints, desktop and data-center IT equipment, and a wide range of building infrastructure. EnergyWise technology is included on all Cisco Catalyst 2960-Plus Series Switches.
For more information about Cisco EnergyWise, visit cisco.com/go/energywise. Power over Ethernet
Cisco Catalyst 2960-Plus switches support IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) to deliver lower total cost of ownership for deployments that incorporate Cisco IP phones, Cisco Aironet ® wireless access points, or other standards-compliant PoE end devices. PoE removes the need to supply wall power to PoE-enabled devices and eliminates the cost of adding electrical cabling and circuits that would otherwise be necessary in IP phone and WLAN deployments. Table 2 shows the total PoE power available with each 2960-Plus model. Table 2. Switch PoE Power Capacity

* Using ATIS-0600015.03.2009 methodology.
Disclaimer: All power consumption numbers were measured under controlled laboratory conditions and are provided as an estimate.
Note: The wattage rating on the power supply does not represent actual power draw. It indicates the maximum power draw possible by the power supply. This rating can be used for facility capacity planning. For PoE switches, cooling requirements are smaller than total power draw because a significant portion of the load is dissipated in the endpoints.

Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty
Cisco Catalyst 2960-Plus Series Switches come with an enhanced limited lifetime warranty (E-LLW). The E-LLW provides the same terms as Cisco's standard limited lifetime warranty but adds next-business-day delivery of replacement hardware, where available, and 90 days of 8X5 Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) support.
Your formal warranty statement, including the warranty applicable to Cisco software, appears in the Cisco information packet that accompanies your Cisco product. We encourage you to review carefully the warranty statement shipped with your specific product before use.
Cisco reserves the right to refund the purchase price as its exclusive warranty remedy. For further information about warranty terms (Table 12), visit cisco.com/go/warranty. Table 12. Warranty Terms
