Cisco Catalyst 3560CX-12TC-S - switch - 12 ports - managed - rack-mountable

An effective work environment encourages collaboration. That often means tearing down office walls to create open workspaces. With their quiet, fan-less design, the switches create many possibilities for designing workspaces. They can reside nearly anywhere outside your wiring closet. Install them in carpeted areas such as offices, conference rooms, classrooms, and retail stores for quick, flexible connections. Rearrange rooms and floors without changing your cabling infrastructure. Consolidate cabling for big savings. Rather than running multiple Ethernet cables from endpoints like IP phones and Wi-Fi access points to a wiring closet, you just connect devices over a few feet of cabling to a nearby 3560-CX switch. Then connect the compact switch to the wiring closet with a single Ethernet or fiber cable. Using this setup, a 200-room hotel using compact switches in guest rooms can eliminate up to 30 kilometers of cables.

Key Points

• Transform your workspaces without cabling hassles and expenses
• Locate switches nearly anywhere, outside your wiring closet
• Deploy Internet of Things (IoT) devices in your enterprise
• Replace your hubs, simplify switch management, and enhance security
• Aggregate gigabit Wi-Fi traffic flows with 10-Gbps uplinks

Product Features

• Embrace amazing IoT possibilities with PoE
  The Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX switches enable you to bring sensors, LED lights, building controllers, and other IoT devices onto the network using Power over Ethernet (PoE). The many features and controls offered by these PoE switches make them run more efficiently and reliably. For example, Cisco Perpetual PoE continues powering endpoints even during a switch boot, maximizing uptime. So there's no need for backup power. The switches provide up to 240 watts of power for PoE devices - twice the capacity of current switches.
• Security and operational simplicity
  For simplified management, these switches have the option to run in Cisco Instant Access mode. Instant Access provides a single point of operation and management for your campus networks. And they support Cisco Plug and Play (PnP) technology, which automates network device deployments.
