The Cisco Catalyst 3560-48PS is a reliable and high-performance network switch designed for environments where both power and flexibility are essential. This managed switch comes equipped with 48 Ethernet ports, each providing up to 10/100 Mbps bandwidth, making it an excellent choice for connecting multiple devices within an organisation. Additionally, the switch includes Power over Ethernet (PoE) on these 48 ports, which allows it to power compatible devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras without needing separate power supplies.
For network scalability, the Cisco Catalyst 3560-48PS is designed with Layer 3 switching capabilities. This means it can handle routing tasks between different subnets, optimising traffic and reducing congestion within the network. Its non-blocking architecture ensures that all ports can operate simultaneously at maximum throughput, minimising bottlenecks even when the switch is fully populated. The device supports a variety of networking protocols, including Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Virtual LANs (VLANs), ensuring compatibility with a range of network architectures.
To enhance security and network stability, this model offers Access Control Lists (ACLs) and the ability to protect connected devices against threats such as MAC spoofing or traffic flooding through port security features. The switch is designed for easy management through Cisco’s IOS software, allowing network administrators to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the device efficiently.
With a compact desktop form factor, the Cisco Catalyst 3560-48PS is ideal for offices or smaller data centres that require powerful networking features but have limited rack space. Its PoE power budget of 370W caters to a variety of power-hungry devices, while its fanless design ensures quiet operation in noise-sensitive environments.
