Description

The Catalyst 3560-CX is a fanless, silent compact Layer 3 managed switch with eight Gigabit PoE+ ports. It suits space-constrained deployments outside the wiring closet, such as open workspaces, conference rooms and under-desk installs, where it extends IP phones, wireless access points, surveillance cameras, PCs and video endpoints from a single upstream PoE uplink.

This model has no internal AC supply. It is powered through its two 1G copper uplink ports from an upstream PoE, PoE+ or Cisco UPOE device, or from an optional 18-60 VDC auxiliary input, and it passes PoE+ to downstream devices with up to 30 W per port. The available downstream PoE budget depends on how it is powered, from 20 W with two PoE+ uplinks up to 146 W with two Cisco UPOE uplinks plus the auxiliary input. Forwarding bandwidth is 16 Gbps, switching bandwidth is 32 Gbps and the forwarding rate is 14.9 Mpps, backed by 512 MB DRAM and 128 MB flash.

The switch ships with Cisco IOS IP Base, which includes routed access, TrustSec and MACsec. It can be upgraded to IP Services with an RTU licence. Mounting options include wall, under desk, rack and DIN rail using the optional Cisco mounting accessories.

FAQs

Q: How is this switch powered?
A: It has no internal AC supply. It is powered through its two copper uplink ports from an upstream PoE, PoE+ or Cisco UPOE device, or through the optional 18-60 VDC auxiliary input using an 80W AC-DC or DC-DC adapter. A single PoE uplink alone cannot power it; two PoE uplinks or one PoE+ uplink or better are needed.

Q: How much PoE power can it supply to downstream devices?
A: The downstream budget depends on the powering option. It is 20 W with two PoE+ uplinks, 22 W with one Cisco UPOE uplink, 68 W with two Cisco UPOE uplinks, 54 W with the auxiliary input alone, and up to 146 W with two Cisco UPOE uplinks plus the auxiliary input. Each port delivers up to 30 W.

Q: Which software does it run and can it be upgraded?
A: It ships with Cisco IOS IP Base, which includes routed access, TrustSec and MACsec. It can be upgraded to IP Services, adding OSPF, BGP, EIGRP, PBR, multicast routing and VRF-Lite, with an RTU licence (L-C3560CX-RTU=).

Q: Does this model have SFP uplink ports?
A: No. This model has two 1G copper uplink ports and no SFP cages, so no transceivers are needed.

Q: What mounting accessories work with it?
A: Genuine Cisco options include CMPCT-DIN-MNT= for DIN rail, RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= and RCKMNT-23-CMPCT= for rack mounting, CMPCT-MGNT-TRAY= for magnetic mounting, CMPCT-CBLE-GRD= as a cable guard and PWR-CLP= as a power clip.
