The WS-C3560X-48P-S Cisco Catalyst 3560X 48 Ports Switch is equipped with several advanced technologies that provide advanced security, quality of service (QoS), and energy efficiency features. Some of these technologies include:
Advanced Security: The switch includes features such as access control lists (ACLs), Cisco Identity-Based Networking Services (IBNS), and Cisco TrustSec technology to provide advanced security and threat protection.
Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports advanced QoS features such as Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED), Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ), and Low Latency Queuing (LLQ) to ensure consistent and predictable performance for critical applications.
Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE): The switch supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) which reduces power consumption during periods of low network utilization.
Cisco StackWise Plus technology: This technology allows for stacking of multiple switches to provide increased scalability and ease of management.
Cisco EnergyWise: This is a technology that allows for monitoring, measuring and managing energy consumption across the entire network infrastructure, which makes the switch energy efficient.
Cisco FlexStack Plus: This technology allows for stacking of multiple switches to provide increased scalability and ease of management.
Cisco IOS IP Base: This is the Cisco IOS software feature set that provides support for advanced security, quality of service (QoS), and energy efficiency features.
Cisco Flexible NetFlow: This technology allows for in-depth network traffic analysis and monitoring, which can be used to identify and troubleshoot network issues.
Quality Components of Ethernet Switch
The WS-C3560X-48P-S is a Cisco Catalyst 3560X series switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports. The switch is designed for enterprise-class access and distribution layer deployments in campus and branch environments. It offers advanced security, quality of service (QoS), and energy efficiency features, as well as support for Cisco's Intelligent Power Management. The switch is built with quality components, such as EMI shielding and industrial-grade components, which ensure reliable and long-lasting performance. Additionally, it supports Cisco's StackWise Plus technology, which allows for stacking of multiple switches to provide increased scalability and ease of management.
Resiliency and High Availability
The WS-C3560X-48P-S Cisco Catalyst 3560X 48 Ports Switch is designed to provide resiliency and high availability in order to ensure that network operations continue without interruption. Some of the features that contribute to this include:
Redundant Power Supplies: The switch supports the use of redundant power supplies to ensure that power is always available to the switch, even in the event of a power supply failure.
Redundant Fans: The switch includes redundant fans to ensure that cooling is always available to the switch, even in the event of a fan failure.
Cisco StackWise Plus technology: This technology allows for stacking of multiple switches to provide increased scalability and ease of management, as well as providing redundancy and high availability.
Cisco FlexStack Plus: This technology allows for stacking of multiple switches to provide increased scalability and ease of management, as well as providing redundancy and high availability.
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP): This protocol allows for automatic failover between two routers in the event that one router fails.
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP): This protocol allows for automatic failover between two routers in the event that one router fails.
Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP): This protocol allows for automatic failover between two links in the event that one link fails.
Cisco Nonstop Forwarding (NSF) with Stateful Switchover (SSO): This feature allows for fast recovery in the event of a switchover, by maintaining the state of the switch even during a switchover.
All these features and technologies work together to provide resiliency and high availability to ensure that network operations continue without interruption.
