Cisco Catalyst 4948 WS-C4948-10GE-S-RF

Upgrade your network with the Cisco Catalyst 4948 (WS-C4948-10GE-S-RF), a managed Layer 4 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for backbone deployments where high throughput, redundancy and routing capability are critical. The product line is engineered for top-of-rack and aggregation switching.

The Cisco Catalyst 4948 is equipped with 48 x 10/100/1000, 2 x X2 for a flexible mix of connections. Higher-speed 10GbE connectivity is ideal for uplinks and aggregation, keeping traffic moving when many users are active. A wired connection delivers steadier speeds and lower latency than Wi-Fi for fixed devices.

Network administrators get granular control over traffic, security and monitoring through its management interfaces. With Layer 4 features it can route traffic between subnets locally for a more efficient, scalable design. It runs on Cisco IOS, so it fits existing management tools and operating procedures. Link aggregation combines multiple ports into one logical link for extra bandwidth and resilience. Spanning tree support lets you design in backup paths safely. Every port provides a dedicated connection, so devices do not compete for a shared medium.

Its rack-mountable form factor fits neatly into equipment rooms, cabinets or workspaces. Condition: Cisco Certified Refurbished (-RF). The WS-C4948-10GE-S-RF part number makes it easy to source identical units for future expansion. Adequate airflow around the unit helps it run reliably for years. The WS-C4948-10GE-S-RF is a strong foundation for redundant network designs with multiple uplinks and failover paths. As an aggregation or core switch it consolidates traffic from access switches and links it to servers and the WAN edge. Choose the Cisco WS-C4948-10GE-S-RF when you need Cisco managed Gigabit Ethernet switching you can rely on.
