How many mac-addresses a single port can store ?
And also what is the max limit for mac-addresses on a switch ?

May be worth having a read of the data sheets for each model.
The 2960 switch data sheet suggests 8000 Unicast MAC addresses total.

Hi,
I don't think there is a limit per port.
The limit is the max number of entries in the CAM table so if for example the CAM table limit is 8000 and you already got 7200 entries you can have the 800 enties on different ports or on one port.

Depends on the model of your switch.

Let's say it is a 2960 switch with 48 ports.

But seems like even the datasheet is not showing the maximum limit for MACs on a port.
