A member of the Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series switches, the Cisco
Catalyst 2950SX-48-SI Switch is a standalone, fixed-configuration,
managed 10/100 switch with two fixed 1000BASE-SX uplinks that
provides user connectivity for small to midsize networks. With these
integrated ports, it is a cost-effective solution for delivering
gigabit speeds using fiber. Dual ports provide redundancy and
increased availability, as well as provide a cost-effective means
for cascading switches and managing them as a cluster. Embedded in
all Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series switches is the Cisco Cluster
Management Suite (CMS) Software, which allows users to
simultaneously configure and troubleshoot multiple Catalyst desktop
switches using a standard Web browser.
Features and functions of this switch include:
- 48 10/100 ports with 2 fixed 1000BASE-SX uplinks
- 1-rack-unit (RU) switch
- Cisco IOS Software functions for basic data, voice, and video
services at the edge of the network
- Standard Image software installed
- Ideal for Layer 2 functions, especially in the education and
government segments where SX uplinks are required
