Description
The WS-CE500-24TT is one of the Catalyst Express 500 series switches for networks with up to 250 workstations. These Layer 2–managed Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet switches offer nonblocking, wire-speed performance that provides a secure network foundation optimized for data, wireless, and voice. Built-in advanced security features help protect individual devices as well as the entire network.
No console cable or terminal emulation application is needed for intitialization through the embedded GUI Device Manager. There are two options for switch management: GUI Device Manager for all operating systems and the Windows-based Cisco Network Assistant available at no cost from the Cisco Web site.
The 24TT model is a basic 24-port switch that provides
- Twenty-four 10/100 ports for desktop connectivity
- Two 10/100/1000BASE-T ports for uplink or server connectivity
Organizations that need 48 ports should install two 24TT switches.
Please note: The equipment shipped may be new or refurbished at Cisco's discretion.
Product service and support: Cisco will provide five years of hardware and software service and support ("SMARTnet") for any product or product bundle obtained through this donation program.
More information about this product is available on the Cisco Web site.

Restrictions
- This donation is available only to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) designation.
- Donated product will be distributed under this program to qualifying organizations only, not to individuals.
- To be eligible for a Cisco donation, an organization must have an annual budget of no more than $7,500,000 (your organization's most recent total revenue as reported on your IRS 990 or other tax form), have a unique U.S. Employer Identification Number (EIN), and fall within one of the Cisco-approved nonprofit categories listed below.
- An organization may receive no more than one donation of Cisco products per fiscal year (July 1 – June 30).
- Grants that are donated within three months of a sale are not considered as a donation by the IRS; instead, the IRS considers these products an additional discount to the sale. Therefore, TechSoup Stock donations cannot be given to organizations that have purchased Cisco equipment within the last three months or that plan to purchase Cisco equipment within the next three months. TechSoup Stock donations done in conjunction with a Cisco sale are not allowed.
- Administrative fees for Cisco equipment received by a single organization may total no more than $800 per fiscal year (July 1 – June 30) — up to a $10,000 retail value in all.
- An organization must be willing and able to demonstrate that technology is a budgeted line item and must be able to state the amount of such budgeted line item.
- A range of direct-service nonprofit organizations are eligible to receive Cisco donations. Please make sure that your organization's primary mission and services correspond to one of the following organizational types:

- Affiliates of a national organization (such as the YMCA, the American Red Cross, and Habitat for Humanity) that has more than twenty locations (even if those affiliates are considered separate entities and are not funded by the national organization)
- Religious organizations without a secular community designation — A secular designation is defined as an organization separate from the church or religious organization that provides services to people regardless of their religious beliefs and does not propagate a belief in a specific faith. Example: A food bank with nonprofit or charity status that is run by a church but is a separate and unique organization that provides food and meals to anyone who qualifies for services, regardless of religious beliefs.

- All Cisco products except Linksys equipment include five years of Cisco SMARTnet service and support on both hardware and software. After that coverage expires, donation recipients are strongly encouraged to renew their SMARTnet service and support agreement annually, for as long as they own the equipment or until that equipment is declared End Of Life (EOL) and no longer supported by Cisco. (PCMCIA and PCI cards alone do not require a SMARTnet contract.)
- Cisco orders may not include non-Cisco item requests. Any non-Cisco items must be ordered separately so they are not subject to the Cisco processing delay.
- Orders may be partially fulfilled: Due to the nature of the network design, product availability, and fiscal year schedules, all product donations are subject to change or delay without notice. Cisco reserves the right to substitute functionally equivalent products for any request or order.
- Cisco products may not be transferred or resold.
