Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series

Fixed-configuration switches offering Fast Ethernet

and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity for branch offices,

small wiring closets, and industrial deployments.

The Cisco Catalyst 2950 Series switch is a fixed-configuration switch

that provides wire-speed Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.

This switch offers two distinct sets of software features and a range of

configurations to allow small, midsize, and enterprise branch offices and

industrial environments to select the right combination for the network edge.

Standard Image Software (SI) offers Cisco IOS Software functions for basic

data, voice, and video services. For networks with requirements for additional

security, advanced quality of service (QoS), and high availability, Enhanced

Image Software (EI) delivers intelligent services such as rate limiting and

security filtering for deployment at the network edge.

By adding intelligent services to their networks, companies gain the availability

required to accommodate time-critical needs, the scalability needed to

accommodate growth, the advanced security essential to protecting confidential

information, and the ability to differentiate and control traffic flows to

optimize network operations.
