The Cisco Catalyst 3560E-48PD-EF is a high-performance, fully-managed switch designed for both small to medium-sized business infrastructures as well as enterprise environments. This robust network switch offers 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which provide exceptional speed and connectivity for wired devices across your entire network. It is suitable for a wide range of operational needs due to its flexibility and scalable architecture.
The switch supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, enabling the connection of PoE-enabled devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras without the need for external power supplies. Each port can deliver power and data over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installation and lowering overall costs for powered devices. In addition, the switch is equipped with 2 dual-purpose uplink Gigabit Ethernet ports—these can function as either 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplinks or 1-Gigabit SFP ports to further improve network flexibility and performance.
The Cisco Catalyst 3560E-48PD-EF is also rack-mountable, allowing it to be installed easily in a standard 19-inch rack. This ensures that the switch can adapt seamlessly into existing IT infrastructures without additional adjustments. Using advanced Cisco technologies, it delivers layer 3 switching for optimal routing and IP services such as OSPF and EIGRP. This enhances network traffic efficiency and reliability across various subnets or VLANs.
Moreover, security features like 802.1x authentication, Access Control Lists (ACLs), and port security are built into the switch, ensuring that network resources and data are protected from unauthorized access or potential threats.
