Technical Details

32 Gbps switching capacity and 6.5 Mpps forwarding rate define packet-switching performance. WS-C3560-24PS-S runs Cisco IOS with static and RIP routing. The fixed uplinks do not support 10G connections.

Ordering

WS-C3560-24PS-S is offered new sealed or certified refurbished; specify condition, quantities and required accessories on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed port links, clean boot, PoE output under load on every powered port and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configurations wiped to factory default. ORM provides up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units, plus 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply. POs are accepted, with Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement and regional stock/RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Advanced routing image requirement

Advanced routing on WS-C3560-24PS-S requires an IP Services upgrade. Identify OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 or IS-ISv4 requirements before specifying the software feature set.

Replacement chain continues forward

Replacement planning for WS-C3560-24PS-S continues through discontinued WS-C3560V2-24PS-S and discontinued WS-C3650-24PS-S to C9300L-24P-4G-A. Specify the final migration target rather than treating either intermediate model as current.

WS-C3560-24PS-S Use Case

Legacy PoE Access Closet

WS-C3560-24PS-S operates in a legacy access closet where 24 x 10/100 copper ports provide PoE to phones, access points, cameras, and other older endpoints. Engineers restore VLAN, trunk, spanning-tree, uplink, and management settings from the existing Catalyst configuration, then reconnect the 2 x SFP uplinks toward distribution. The IP Base image keeps the replacement aligned with the installed Standard Image requirement. The closet regains the approved access profile without changing cabling, endpoint speed, or spare-part policy. This keeps emergency swaps simple for technicians.

Spare Inventory Replacement

A spare inventory program uses WS-C3560-24PS-S where operations teams maintain older Catalyst 3560 PoE deployments while larger refresh planning remains separate. Refurbishment teams test RJ-45 link response, PoE behavior, SFP uplink status, fan operation, boot health, and management access before assigning the unit as a field spare. The SKU gives technicians a like-for-like replacement for the IP Base version. The network gains a controlled maintenance path for restoring service after an access-switch failure. This supports faster recovery while refresh projects wait.

Legacy Lab and Staging

A legacy lab uses WS-C3560-24PS-S to mirror older production closets before maintenance work begins. Engineers stage VLANs, trunks, port descriptions, SFP uplinks, PoE endpoint tests, and management monitoring in a controlled rack, then document the configuration for field replacement. The 24-port Fast Ethernet access profile supports phones, cameras, printers, terminals, and test hosts that still match the retired Catalyst design. This lab role reduces deployment uncertainty when production sites cannot immediately move to current Catalyst platforms. Technicians also confirm optic labeling before shipment.

Best For

Endpoint Power Sizing

When retaining powered endpoints, the 15.4W per-port ceiling determines compatibility. Confirm each endpoint's power requirement before specifying the order.

VLAN Change Staging

When staging configuration changes, 1024 VLANs and 128 spanning-tree instances bound the configuration. Specify the VLAN inventory before the PO.

Not Suitable If

Gigabit connections on access ports

WS-C3560-24PS-S limits fixed RJ-45 access ports to 10/100 Mbps; Gigabit endpoints cannot establish 1GbE links through those ports.

Continuing Cisco service coverage

Cisco service for WS-C3560-24PS-S ended July 31, 2015. C9300L-24P-4G-A is the current migration-chain endpoint, with different software licensing and uplink configuration.
