The Cisco Catalyst 3560-8PC is a compact, managed switch designed for ease of use in small or medium-sized networking environments. This desktop-friendly switch features 8 Fast Ethernet ports, each providing up to 10/100 Mbps speeds, allowing for reliable and efficient data transfer across connected devices. In addition to its 8 Fast Ethernet ports, it also includes a single dual-purpose uplink port that can be used as either a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port or a Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) port for fibre connections, offering flexible connectivity options based on your network needs.
The WS-C3560-8PC-S supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing it to deliver both data and electrical power through the Ethernet cables to connected devices. With a power budget of 124W, it is capable of powering several endpoints such as IP phones, wireless access points, or security cameras, eliminating the need for separate power supplies for these devices.
It provides support for Layer 2 switching, making it ideal for VLAN configurations and optimising the network’s performance with features such as QoS (Quality of Service) to prioritise data flow, and IGMP Snooping for improved multicast performance. The switch also includes features like Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP), ensuring reliable network redundancy and load balancing to avoid congestion and maintain uninterrupted device connectivity.
As part of Cisco's Catalyst family, the 3560-8PC-S is designed for long-term operability and high reliability. It runs on the IP Base software feature set, delivering essential Layer 2 and IP routing features for an efficient and secure network management experience.
