Field Removable Power Supplies for 2960-XR
Delivering Power Availability and Flexibility
• 2960-XR three Power Supply options 1025W AC -> 740W (PoE+) 640W AC -> 370W (PoE+) 250W AC
• 1+1 Power Redundancy• Fans integrated with FRU Power Supply• Up to 740W of PoE with redundancy• DC Power Supply on Road Map
Power Resiliency• Dual Field Removable Power Supplies• “Zero-footprint” RPS i.e. power supply redundancy without an RPS• Intelligent power shedding—turn off low priority PoE end devices in the event of a power
supply failure• Stack Power is NOT Supported
Introducing FlexStack-Plus on 2960-X Series

Hot swappable FlexStack-Plus modules Stack up to 8 switches – 400 ports Faster Stack Convergence - 100ms 40 Gbps of stack bandwidth per stack port. Total 80 Gbps stack bandwidth with two stack
ports. Backward Compatible with FlexStack Support Mix Stack - Stack of 2960-S & 2960-X Share uplinks for redundancy if one switch fails Apply features across stack members including QoS, Etherchannel FlexStack modules and FlexStack-Plus modules are not interchangeable.
BenefitsInvestment Protection – works with older switchesUnparalleled Scalability – room to grow in capacityMission Critical - resilience against failures
Note:The form factor of FlexStack and FlexStack-Plus modules is different , so they can’t be interchanged.
Each Stack port can handle 20Gb bidirectional traffic, so bandwidth per stack port is 40Gbps (20*2). There are two stack ports per switch which can connect to two different members. So the effective stack bandwidth is 80Gbps (40*2).
Catalyst 2960-X FlexStack-Plus Stacking
Stack link topology change is handled in HW6
Cross-stack EtherChannel, SPAN, and FlexLink supported EtherChannel physical links across stack members
Pre-Provisioning of stack members Easy member addition and replacement Configurable Stack Master, same Master election rules as StackWise Plus Supports CISCO-STACKWISE-MIB Single Spanning tree node: No spanning-tree across stack
2960-S & 2960-X Mixed Stack Characteristics
Mixed Stack – 2960-X Stack with 2960-S switches. 2960-X LAN Base models only can form Mixed Stack. 2960-XR IP Lite models can’t form Mixed Stack. Mixed Stack can be formed with 2960-S as master or member. The stack port speed needs to be changed on 2960-X to stack with 2960-S
Switch(config)#switch stack port-speed 10 2960-S based SDM template (default / lanbase-routing) needs to be selected in 2960-X series
to form Mixed Stack. The capabilities & features of Mixed Stack are limited to 2960-S capabilities. The Stack bandwidth is limited to 40Gbps (20Gbps per stack port) The maximum number of stack members is restricted to 4 in Mixed Stack.
Note:IP Lite SKUs can not be stacked with LAN Base SKUs

TCAM Resources-SDM Templates
Note: If default or lanbase-routing SDM templates are chosen on 2960-X Series, the available
TCAM resources are not fully used. These SDM templates should be used only to form Mixed stack with 2960-S.
IP Lite models can not form mixed stack so the 290-S based SDM templates are not available on 2960-XR IP Lite models.

Note: There are no plans to EoS for 2960-S before FY2016 250 IPv6 QoS ACEs are only supported on 2960-XR IP Lite with default template, 500 IPv6
QoS ACEs are supported with ipv4 template.
