Cisco Catalyst 2912MF XL Datasheet

Catalyst
10/100 Autosensing Fast Ethernet Switch
Catalyst
100BaseFX Fast Ethernet Aggregator Switch
The Cisco Catalyst ® 2924M XL 10/100
autosensing Fast Ethernet switch combines
outstanding performance, ease of use, and
from the leader in networking, integrated
Cisco IOS ® software. The Catalyst 2924M XL
is a flexible, scalable, and affordable solution,
ideal for aggregating Ethernet and Fast Ethernet
workgroups and delivering dedicated 10 or
100 Mbps connectivity for individual users
and servers with high-speed uplink modules,
including Gigabit Ethernet and ATM, to connect
to servers and LAN backbones.
The Catalyst 2924M XL switch, a member of
the Catalyst 2900 Series XL family, contains 24
10Base-T/100Base-TX ports and two versatile
module slots to provide unmatched expansion
capabilities and high-speed connectivity. The
modular design allows users to easily add
10Base-T/100Base-T, 100Base-FX, Gigabit
Ethernet, or Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
(OC-3) ports to increase port density and deliver
high-speed uplinks. With the Gigabit Ethernet
module, Catalyst 2924M XL switches can be
stacked (up to nine switches) with the low-cost
Cisco GigaStack ™ gigabit interface controller
(GBIC). The advanced Cisco architecture
incorporates a switch fabric of 3.2 Gbps and
a forwarding rate of 3.0 million packets per
second (pps) to deliver wire-speed performance
across all ports.
