CISCO SWITCH 2960X-48FPS-L

Power Management

The Cisco Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR Series Switches offer a range of industry-leading features for effective energy efficiency and energy management. They are the greenest switches in the industry.

Switch Hibernation Mode (SHM) is an industry first and available on all 2960-X and 2960-XR Series switches. This feature puts the switch in ultra-low-power mode during periods of nonoperation such as nights or weekends. SHM on the 2960-X and 2960-XR Series switches can be scheduled using Cisco EnergyWise^® compliant management software.

IEEE 802.3az EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) enables ports to dynamically sense idle periods between traffic bursts and quickly switch the interfaces into a low-power idle mode, reducing power consumption.

Cisco EnergyWise policies can be used to control the power consumed by PoE-powered endpoints, desktop and data-center IT equipment, and a wide range of building infrastructure. Cisco EnergyWise technology is included on all Cisco Catalyst 2960-X and 2960-XR Series Switches.
