Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series Switches | Houston

Simplicity and Sophistication

The Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series allows you to maintain the simplicity of traditional LAN switching and still deploy network-wide intelligent services such as:

• Advanced quality of service (QoS)
• Rate limiting
• Access control lists (ACLs)
• Multicast management
• High-performance IP routing

Key Features of the Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series

• Standalone fixed-configuration switches
• Layer 2–4 switching and intelligent services with dynamic IP routing and IPv6
• Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
• Up to 48 10/100/1000 ports plus 4 Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) ports
• Integrated PoE (Cisco pre-standard and IEEE 802.3af)
• Up to 24 ports with 15.4 watts (W) or 48 ports with 7.7W
• AC power supply failure protection with external redundant power supply
• 8-port Fast Ethernet PoE switch with compact form factor and no fan
• Limited lifetime warranty

Ideal for Deployments in Space and Wiring-constrained Environments

The Catalyst 3560 Series is also available in a compact, silent PoE model (link to C3560-8PC-S page) ideal for deployments in space and wiring-constrained environments outside the wiring closet such as office workspaces, classrooms, micro branch offices and even cruise ships.

Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series Switches are available with the IP Base (formerly called SMI) or IP Services (formerly called EMI) licenses, and can be upgraded in the field to Advanced IP Services licenses.

• The IP Base license offers advanced QoS, rate-limiting, ACLs, IGMP Snooping, and routing capabilities such as RIP, static routing, and EIGRP Stub.
• The IP Services license provides a richer set of enterprise-class features, including advanced hardware-based IP Unicast and IP Multicast routing, PRB, and advanced IP routing protocols.
• The Advanced IP Services license adds IPv6 routing and advanced IP services.
