2901 & 2926T run cat 5k version of CATOS. Exactly the same binary image.

2948G runs cat 4k version of CATOS, the commands are basically the same
as cat 5k but it does not support ISL trunking only 802.1q trunking.

(You can perform the same functions in a lab environment as with ISL and
it has the advantage that you can run 'dot1q' on some of the 10 BaseT
ethernet interfaces, in particular it will run on IOS 12.2.3 enterprise
load on 4500M with NP-2E. This is somewhat less expensive than the NM or
NP -1FE 100 BaseT interfaces.)
