Cisco WS-C2960X-24PD-L Catalyst 2960-X 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Managed Switch
The Cisco WS-C2960X-24PD-L is a Catalyst 2960-X Series managed Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for enterprise access-layer, campus, branch-office and business networking environments. It provides 24 × 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports with Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) capability and 2 × 10G SFP+ uplink interfaces for high-speed connections to aggregation, distribution, server and core network infrastructure.
The switch provides an available 370W PoE power budget. Cisco specifies support for up to 24 ports using IEEE 802.3af PoE and up to 12 ports using IEEE 802.3at PoE+ at up to 30W per port, subject to the available power budget and deployment conditions. This makes the WS-C2960X-24PD-L suitable for powering compatible IP phones, wireless access points, surveillance devices and other PoE-enabled endpoints.

24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Connectivity
The 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports provide high-density wired connectivity for computers, IP phones, wireless access points, cameras and other Ethernet-enabled devices. PoE+ capability allows compatible endpoints to receive both network connectivity and electrical power over the Ethernet cable, helping simplify deployment where dedicated power connections are inconvenient or unavailable.
370W PoE Power Budget
The WS-C2960X-24PD-L provides a 370W available PoE power budget. Cisco specifies up to 12 ports at up to 30W using IEEE 802.3at PoE+ or up to 24 ports at up to 15.4W using IEEE 802.3af, subject to the total available power budget. The actual number of powered devices depends on their individual power requirements and the overall PoE load.
10G SFP+ Uplink Connectivity
Two integrated 10G SFP+ uplinks provide high-bandwidth connectivity toward aggregation switches, core infrastructure, servers and other compatible network equipment. Compatible Cisco SFP+ optical or direct-attach solutions can be selected according to the required network media and distance.
Managed Cisco IOS Networking
The LAN Base software feature set provides managed switching functionality for enterprise networks. Depending on configuration and supported software features, the switch can be used for VLAN segmentation, Spanning Tree Protocol, link aggregation, Quality of Service, access control, network monitoring and other managed Ethernet functions.
FlexStack Capability
Cisco identifies the WS-C2960X-24PD-L as supporting FlexStack-Plus and FlexStack-Extended. With compatible stacking hardware and supported configurations, multiple Catalyst 2960-X switches can be deployed as a stack with centralized management and stack-level operation.
Applications
- Enterprise access-layer networks
- Corporate office networks
- Campus networking
- Branch office deployments
- IP phone and VoIP deployments
- Wireless access point connectivity
- IP surveillance and security camera networks
- PoE-enabled IoT and network endpoint deployments
- High-speed 10G uplink applications
- Legacy Cisco network maintenance and expansion
Compatibility and Deployment
The WS-C2960X-24PD-L is designed for standard 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet endpoints and compatible 10G SFP+ uplink solutions. PoE-powered devices should be checked for their IEEE PoE standard and power requirements before deployment. Optical distance and media compatibility depend on the selected SFP+ transceiver or direct-attach solution.
Legacy Product Consideration
The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X family is an end-of-sale product line. Cisco identifies the C9200L-24P-4X as the replacement product for the WS-C2960X-24PD-L. The 2960-X family remains supported by Cisco through October 31, 2027, according to Cisco's current lifecycle information. The WS-C2960X-24PD-L may therefore be relevant for maintaining existing Catalyst 2960-X installations or matching an existing network configuration.
Why Choose Cisco WS-C2960X-24PD-L?
The Cisco WS-C2960X-24PD-L combines 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, a 370W PoE budget and 2 × 10G SFP+ uplinks in a rack-mountable enterprise switch. It is particularly suited to existing Cisco Catalyst 2960-X environments that require PoE connectivity and high-speed uplinks.
