About the Cisco Catalyst 3560 WS-C3560V2-24TS-E Cisco Catalyst switch
As an L2/L3 switch with support for BGP, OSPF, EIGRP, and static routing, the Cisco Catalyst 3560 WS-C3560V2-24TS-E is engineered to bridge access and distribution layer deployments in mid-market enterprise networks. This Cisco Catalyst switch combines multilayer switching intelligence with proven reliability, making it an ideal choice for network engineers and IT procurement teams seeking cost-effective Layer 3 fabric capabilities without sacrificing throughput or security.
The WS-C3560V2-24TS-E delivers 8.8 Gbps switching bandwidth and 6.5 Mpps forwarding rate, supported by 128 MB DRAM and 32 MB flash memory. Its 24 Fast Ethernet ports (10/100) plus 2 Gigabit Ethernet SFP uplinks provide flexible connectivity for mixed-speed environments. Advanced QoS features—including 4 hardware queues per port, IEEE 802.1p, DSCP, and Weighted Tail Drop—enable traffic prioritization, while comprehensive security mechanisms (802.1X, Dynamic ARP Inspection, IP Source Guard, DHCP Snooping, ACLs, Private VLANs, SSH v2, and SNMPv3) protect against unauthorized access and layer 2 attacks. The switch supports up to 255 VLANs (4,094 VLAN IDs) and maintains a 16,000-entry MAC address table for large-scale deployments. IPv4 routing extends to 1,000 unicast routes with support for IPv6, while the Enhanced Multilayer Image (EMI) software provides full Layer 3 protocol support.
