Some important 2960-X cool switch highlights are:
Extends a highly secure, intelligent, managed Cisco Catalyst infrastructure with a single Ethernet cable or fiber from the wiring closet
Support for advanced security and intelligent services, including Netflow-Lite and Switch Hibernation, including voice, video, AP powering, and Cisco Enterprise Network services to remote endpoints
Less than 12 depth fit in user work spaces where multiple cable runs could be challenging with very low power consumption and heat dissipation
Higher MTBF rates due to no moving mechanical parts, no fans help ensure that 2960X cool switch is convenient to be used for colocated applications
Easy to deploy using smart-install, configure with auto-smart-ports and device sensors and manage using Cisco Prime or CNA
2960-X Cool Switch Use Cases
Retail
Major retailers are increasingly moving customer-facing IP-based applications and services to the middle of the sales floor or POS that is far away from their access router that connects the retail outlets to the outside network. A typical retail outlet needs to serve customers at multiple sales points, each with a POS machine, phone, printer, or video display with network and some PoE powering. Because of their quiet operation and ability to cater to up to 24 ports with flexible mounting options, these switches are ideally suited for mounting in confined spaces on the floor.
Education
The 2960X cool switch extends access to labs, classrooms, and other training rooms from the central/floor distribution rooms, reducing cost of cabling and providing superior quality of service with enhanced security and enterprise network features. Quiet operation and shallow depth make them ideally suited for classrooms or confined areas nearby.
Defense
Defense establishments often look to an access switch that is portable in mobile units. These units require multiple network access devices, some of them residing in inconvenient locations in the mobile unit that requires being powered by the switch, reducing number of cables to that location and reducing possible failure sources. The switch is expected to be very quiet and have longer MTBF rates, which is served by the 2960X cool switch.

Note:The wattage rating on the power supply does not represent actual power draw. It indicates the maximum power draw possible by the power supply. This rating can be used for facility capacity planning. For PoE switches, cooling requirements are smaller than total power draw as a significant portion of the load is dissipated in the endpoints.
