Hi guys.

I bought three switches:

Ws-2960x-24TS-L with serial number FOC2048V3L5

Ws-2960G-24TC-L with serial number FOC1212Z3QY

Ws-2960G-24TC-L with serial number FOC1025X442

I checked them in link : https://cway.cisco.com/sncheck/

But result all of them was unavailable .

Are they original or fake switches?

The Device Coverage Checker works with even a basic CCO login.  If you do log in, you will not be able to enter the serial numbers.

This is an older topic but I still want to give you an answer in case you still need it.

The serial check link you are using is just a tool to check if the units are covered with a smartnet contract. I did check your serial numbers in the trade tool (country of origin check). The serial numbers are recognized and show as the exact part numbers as you mentioned. So as far as I can see they are legit. BUT serial numbers can also be copied so just looking up the serial number is not sufficient to conclude if they are legit or not, it is just the first step. Did you buy these from a trusted vendor?

Only the 2960X are being sold in the counterfeit market.
