Cisco Systems is introducing the intelligent Ethernet Cisco
Catalyst 2960 Series of fixed-configuration standalone devices that provide desktop Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet
connectivity for entry-level enterprise, midmarket, and branch office networks, helping enable enhanced LAN services.
The Cisco Catalyst 2960G-48TC Switch accelerates the deployment of Gigabit to the Desktop (GTTD) by providing 48 ports
of Gigabit Ethernet in one rack unit (RU) along with integrated security, including Network Admission Control (NAC), as well
as advanced quality of service (QoS) and resiliency, delivering intelligent services for the network edge.
Table 1 provides brief descriptions of the Cisco Catalyst 2960G-48TC Switch.

Network control and bandwidth optimization through advanced QoS, granular rate limiting, ACLs, and multicast services.
Network security through a wide range of authentication methods, data encryption technologies, and NAC based on users, ports, and MAC
addresses.
Easy network configuration, upgrades, and troubleshooting as part of the midmarket or branch solution using the embedded device manager
and Cisco Network Assistant.
