Description
The WS-C3560G-24TS-E Catalyst 3560 is a Layer 3 Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized enterprise networks. It has 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) uplink ports that provide fiber connectivity options. The switch supports advanced features such as Quality of Service (QoS), security, and power management.
The switch supports Cisco's EnergyWise technology, which allows for the management of power consumption of connected devices and helps to reduce energy costs. It also supports Cisco's StackWise technology, which enables the stacking of multiple switches, allowing for the management of a group of switches as a single entity. This simplifies the management of the network and increases its scalability.
The WS-C3560G-24TS-E also supports a range of security features, including Access Control Lists (ACLs), port security, and 802.1x Authentication, allowing for the control and protection of access to the network. It also supports advanced QoS features, such as Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ) and Low Latency Queuing (LLQ), which allow for the prioritization of different types of traffic to ensure that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth.
In terms of routing, the WS-C3560G-24TS-E supports both IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), allowing for the creation of highly-available and scalable networks.
Scalable and Reliable
The Cisco WS-C3560G-24TS-E Catalyst 3560 24 Ports Layer 2 Switch is a reliable and scalable networking solution that is designed to meet the demands of medium-sized businesses and enterprise networks. It is equipped with 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which provide fast and efficient data transfer between devices on the network. The switch is also designed with a high-performance switching fabric, which ensures that data is transmitted quickly and reliably.
One of the key features of the Cisco WS-C3560G-24TS-E switch is its scalability. The switch can be easily expanded to support more devices and users by adding additional ports and modules. This allows businesses to expand their networks as their needs change, without having to replace the entire switch.
The switch also includes a range of advanced features that help to ensure reliability and security. For example, it includes support for Quality of Service (QoS), which allows administrators to prioritize different types of traffic, such as voice and video, to ensure that they are transmitted smoothly and without interruption. The switch also includes robust security features, such as access control lists (ACLs) and port security, which help to protect the network from unauthorized access and attacks.
