Features
You can deploy the 24- and 48-port Catalyst 2960 switches as backbone switches, aggregating
10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet traffic from other network devices. The
Catalyst 2960 8-port compact switches provide the same Ethernet connectivity, but you can deploy these
switches outside of the traditional wiring closet environment, such as in office workspaces and
classrooms. See the switch software configuration guide for deployment examples.
