The Cisco Catalyst 3560E-12D, a 12-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch, and the Cisco Catalyst 3560E-12SD, a 12-port SFP Gigabit Ethernet switch with 2 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports offer flexible and highly available aggregation solutions for nonstop unified network services. Dynamic routing, dual hot-swappable power supplies, and redundant field-replaceable fans enhance switch availability. Compatibility with the Cisco TwinGig module makes the Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Series aggregation switches ideal solutions for networks undergoing a gradual upgrade from Gigabit Ethernet to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. This future-proofs the network for forthcoming business growth while reducing the total cost of ownership.

The Cisco Catalyst 3560E-12D and Catalyst 3560E-12D are well suited for space- and power-constrained deployments because of the compact 1RU form factor, economical power needs and efficient cooling. Ideally suited to support secure converged applications such as Cisco TelePresence and unified communications, the Cisco Catalyst 3560E-12D and Catalyst 3560E-12SD deliver high-performance intelligent switching with the robust feature set.

The Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Series is available with either the IP Base or the IP Services feature set. The IP Base feature set includes advanced quality of service (QoS), rate-limiting, ACLs, and basic static and Routing Information Protocol (RIP) routing capability. The IP Services feature set provides a richer set of enterprise-class features, including advanced hardware-based IP unicast and multicast routing — Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol [EIGRP], Open Shortest Path First [OSPF], Border Gateway Protocol [BGP], Protocol Independent Multicast [PIM] and IPv6 routing such as OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6

Customers can transparently upgrade the software feature set in the Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Series Switches through Cisco IOS ^®Software Activation. Software activation authorizes and enables the Cisco IOS Software feature sets. A special file contained in the switch, called a license file, is examined by Cisco IOS Software when the switch is powered on. Based on the license’s type, Cisco IOS Software activates the appropriate feature set. License types can be changed or upgraded to activate a different feature set.
