The Cisco WS-C3560X-24P-L is a switch designed for enterprise-class networks, offering 24 10/100/1000 Ethernet PoE+ ports. This switch is engineered to provide high availability, scalability, and energy efficiency, making it ideal for a wide range of network deployments. The hardware specifications of the WS-C3560X-24P-L highlight its capacity to support demanding network environments. At the core of the switch is a 715 WAC power supply, supporting the Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) feature across all 24 ports, allowing for direct power supply to connected devices such as IP phones and wireless access points, simplifying the network infrastructure. The switch is housed in a 1 rack unit (RU) form factor, optimizing space in crowded network closets or data centers. The feature set provided with this model is the LAN Base, tailored for layer 2 switching configurations but also supporting basic layer 3 routing features. The forwarding rate of 65.5 Mpps (million packets per second) and a switching fabric of 160 Gbps ensure efficient data processing and transfer speeds, suitable for high-traffic networks. Memory capacity includes 256 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of Flash memory, facilitating smooth operation and firmware updates. Supporting up to 1005 total VLANs with 4K VLAN IDs, the switch provides extensive network segmentation options. It also supports 1K total Switch Virtual Interfaces (SVIs), enhancing network routing capabilities.

• Jumbo Frame support of up to 9216 bytes reduces overhead and improves data transfer efficiency.
• Total routed ports per stack reach up to 468, offering extensive connectivity options for growing networks.
• Security features include support for 1K security access control entries (ACEs) and VLANs, ensuring network integrity and protection against unauthorized access.

The switch can handle up to 6K unicast MAC addresses, accommodates 1K IGMP groups and multicast routes, and supports 8K unicast routes, including both directly connected hosts and 2K indirect routes. This capability ensures comprehensive coverage for both multicast and unicast traffic within the network. Physical dimensions of the switch are 1.75 x 17.5 x 18.0 inches, fitting standard equipment racks and cabinets. A notable reliability factor is the mean time between failures (MTBF) of 181,370 hours, indicating a long operational life. The WS-C3560X-24P-L operates within a temperature range of -5 °C to 45 °C and can withstand relative humidity levels from 5% to 95% (noncondensing), ensuring durability under various environmental conditions. In summary, the Cisco WS-C3560X-24P-L is a versatile, high-performance switch that meets the demands of modern enterprise networks. Its comprehensive feature set, including PoE+ support, high forwarding and switching capacity, extensive VLAN and routing capabilities, and strong security features, make it a reliable choice for organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
