The Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series Switches Used

The Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series is a line of fixed-configuration, enterprise-class switches that include IEEE 802.3af and Cisco pre-standard Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality in Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet configurations. These are ideal access layer switches for small enterprise LAN access or branch-office environments. Combining both 10/100/1000 and PoE configurations for maximum productivity and investment protection, they help you deploy new applications such as IP telephony, wireless access, video surveillance, building management systems, and remote video kiosks.

You can maintain the simplicity of traditional LAN switching and still deploy networkwide intelligent services such as:

• Advanced quality of service (QoS)
• Rate limiting
• Access control lists (ACLs)
• Multicast management
• High-performance IP routing
