Cisco Network Access for Borderless

. Cisco Network Access for Borderless solution focuses on the following primary areas:

• Sustainability

• EnergyWise

• Ease of operations

• Borderless security

• Borderless experience

The Cisco Catalyst 2960-S PoE models support the latest PoE+ devices including Cisco IP phones and Cisco Aironet WLAN access points providing up to 30W of power per port, as well as any IEEE 802.3af-compliant end device.

• Per port power consumption command allows customers to specify maximum power setting on an individual port

• Per port PoE power sensing measures actual power being drawn, enabling more intelligent control of powered devices

• Cisco Discovery Protocol Version 2 allows switches to negotiate a more granular power setting when connecting to a Cisco powered device such as IP phones or access points than what is provided by IEEE classification

• The PoE MIB provides proactive visibility into power usage and allows customers to set different power-level thresholds.

Some of the Cisco PoE Switches that are commonly used in the industry are as follows.

WS-C2960S-48FPD-L, WS-C2960S-48LPD-L, WS-C2960S-24PD-L, WS-C2960S-48TD-L, WS-C2960S-24TD-L, WS-C2960S-48FPS-L, WS-C2960S-48LPS-L, WS-C2960S-24PS-L, WS-C2960PD-8TT-L, WS-C2960-48PST-L.
