Resiliency and High Availability
The Cisco Catalyst WS-C2960CG-8TC-L 8 Ports Managed Switch is a fixed-configuration, Layer 2 switch that provides resiliency and high availability through the use of several features such as:
- Redundant Power Supply: The switch has an optional redundant power supply that can provide power to the switch in case of a primary power supply failure.
- Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP): These protocols help to prevent loops in the network and ensure that only one active path exists between two devices, providing fast convergence in case of a link failure.
- Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): This protocol allows for the creation of link aggregation groups, which can provide redundancy and increased bandwidth.
- Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports QoS, which allows for the prioritization of different types of traffic, ensuring that critical traffic is not impacted by non-critical traffic during periods of high congestion.
- Remote Management: The switch can be managed remotely, allowing for troubleshooting and configuration changes to be made without the need for physical access to the device.

About Refurbished Products
Different Types of Switches
Networking switches vary widely depending on the number of devices they can support, network bandwidth/speed, and form factor. Switches for small offices will have anything between 4 and 8 ports and can fit on a desk. For larger office network implementation, switches may have 24 ports, 48 ports, 96 ports, and 128 ports and are rack-mountable between 1U and 4U. Switches come in different types depending on the network speed and tasks they support. These include 40/100 Gbps, 10 Gigabit (up to 10000 Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet (up to 1000 Mbps), Power over Ethernet, and Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps).
Unmanaged Switches
The unmanaged switches offer fixed configurations on a plug-and-play basis. It is the most basic switch and there are a few choices in the market. These switches are affordable, but the basic features make them inappropriate for enterprise applications.
Managed Switches
The number of features and level of functionality improves with managed switches, making them ideal for enterprise and business applications. These switches are built with the command-line interface for ease of configuration. Equally, they support SNMP agents that come in handy when troubleshooting network issues.
The security on managed switches is better and will protect different types of traffic. Other features include support for virtual LANs, IP routing, and quality of service settings. Managed switches are more expensive compared to all other types of switches.
Smart Switches
Smart switches refer to switches that possess more features than those unmanaged switches but do not have the full features of managed switches. Smart switches are more cost-effective than managed switches.
Some of the limitations of the smart switches are a lack of telnet access support, Web GUIs, and a lack of many features for VLANs. They are affordable compared to a fully managed switch and are suitable for a smaller computer network.
Modular Switches
Modular switches allow the addition of expansion modules as the network expands. The expansion modules allow for more networked devices but are application-specific. They may include wireless access points, firewalls, or network analysis tools. The flexibility of a modular networking switch comes at a higher cost.
