Cisco Catalyst 2960-S Series Switch WS-C2960S-24PS-L is outstanding
with its Power over Ethernet (PoE) capacity. This model has the
Power supply options with 370W total fixed power supplies for POE
switches as 12 ports up to 30W per switch port or 24 ports up to
15.4W per switch port. In addition to this, Cisco
WS-C2960S-24PS-L’s 24 PoE ports are also Ethernet 10/100/1000 ports
and this device provides new FlexStack switch stacking capability
with 4 One Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports with Small Form-Factor
Pluggable (SFP) with 20Gbps throughput performance.

Enterprise-Class Quality of Service
The Cisco 2960-Plus Series Switches offer intelligent traffic
management that keeps everything flowing smoothly. Flexible
mechanisms for marking, classification, and scheduling deliver
superior performance for data, voice, and video traffic, all at
wire speed. Primary QoS features include:
● Four egress queues per port and strict priority queuing so that
the highest priority packets are serviced ahead of all other
traffic
● Shaped Round Robin (SRR) scheduling and Weighted Tail Drop (WTD)
congestion avoidance
● Flow-based rate limiting and up to 64 aggregate or individual
policers per port
● 802.1p class of service (CoS) and differentiated services code
point (DSCP) field classification, with marking and
reclassification on a per-packet basis by source and destination IP
address, MAC address, or Layer 4 TCP/UDP port number
