WS-C3560CG-8PC-S is a fanless, managed Layer 3 desktop switch with eight Gigabit PoE+ access ports and two fixed 1G combo uplinks. Each uplink uses either its copper connection or its SFP cage, rather than both simultaneously. Cisco Catalyst 3560-C extends enterprise access connectivity to IP phones, wireless access points and workstations outside the wiring closet. IP Base is the included software image. The discontinued WS-C3560CG-8TC-S is the nearest data-only sibling, omitting endpoint PoE output. This compact configuration combines powered copper access with a choice of copper or fiber uplink media.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S price for new stock is $729.75, a 64.4% saving from the Cisco list price of $2,050.00. WS-C3560CG-8PC-S refurb price is $174.69. WS-C3560CG-8PC-S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

14.9 Mpps forwarding handles 64-byte packets, while the shared 124W PoE budget requires endpoint power allocation rather than maximum output on every port simultaneously. 165W maximum power consumption provides the figure for electrical sizing. OSPF supports routed access under the included feature set. WS-C3560CG-8PC-S has 128 MB of DRAM for operation and 64 MB of flash for software storage. The default resource allocation accommodates 4000 MAC entries and 984 IPv4 unicast routes; connected hosts and indirect routes share that route allowance. MACsec protects host-facing downlinks, but not uplinks. Cisco Catalyst compact switches support configuration through local console connections and network management interfaces, with no redundant power-supply connection on this generation.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3560CG-8PC-S new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, rated-speed links on every port, PoE output under load on every powered port, optics bay recognition and PSU status; firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. Specify the condition, quantity and required accessories on the purchase order; every condition has 30-day returns, with terms applying. POs are accepted, Net-30 is available for government orders, and enterprise or volume orders can use RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US and MEA.

In a multi-location retail environment, IT teams use the WS-C3560CG-8PC-S Catalyst 3560C Switch (8 GE PoE, 2× dual uplink, IP Base) to power IP cameras and wireless access points directly over Ethernet. This plug-and-play PoE solution eliminates separate power infrastructure, accelerates deployment of real-time video monitoring and guest Wi-Fi, and delivers secure VLAN segmentation. Outcome: faster roll-out, lower CAPEX, and centralized power management for enhanced store visibility and customer experience.
A distributed branch office leverages the Cisco Catalyst WS-C3560CG-8PC-S Switch to connect IP phones, conference systems, and PCs over eight Gigabit PoE ports. Integrated QoS and IP Base feature set prioritize voice traffic and ensure jitter-free calls, while the dual uplink ports provide redundant paths to the WAN router. Outcome: reliable, low-latency VoIP performance, simplified cabling, and high availability for seamless team collaboration.
In a manufacturing plant, automation engineers deploy the WS-C3560CG-8PC-S Catalyst 3560C Switch to power IoT sensors, barcode scanners, and HMI panels via PoE. The switch’s IP Base software enforces 802.1X access control and advanced security policies at the edge, while dual 1 Gbps uplinks aggregate traffic to the central controller. Outcome: deterministic performance for real-time analytics, reduced downtimes, and streamlined power delivery across shop-floor devices.
When a branch rollout uses equipment racks rather than desktop placement, RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= provides the optional rack-mounting brackets for the compact chassis. Specify the installation method separately from the switch condition and quantity. Include RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= on the purchase order when rack installation is required.
When remote administration must be staged before installation, SSH requires a cryptographic Cisco IOS image. Include that image requirement in the acceptance plan rather than treating a successful physical link as confirmation of management access. Specify the required remote interface and verify authentication before approving the deployment configuration.
10G uplinks to distribution
The fixed combo uplinks stop at 1G, and the chassis has no removable uplink card for a 10G connection. A faster uplink requires different hardware.
Active Cisco hardware support
Cisco hardware support ended October 31, 2021. The replacement chain continues through discontinued WS-C3560CX-8PC-S to C9200CX-8P-2X2G-A, rather than stopping at the intermediate model.

WS-C3560CG-8PC-S identifies a Catalyst 3560-C Gigabit switch: WS-C3560CG identifies the compact Gigabit configuration, 8PC denotes eight PoE+ access ports with dual-purpose uplinks, and S identifies IP Base. Match the complete part number on the purchase order rather than substituting another compact model with different power or access-port capabilities.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S supports browser-based Device Manager, CLI through RJ-45 or USB console, Telnet or SSH, Cisco Network Assistant, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, CiscoView, SNMP applications and Cisco Configuration Engine. SSH requires a cryptographic image. Verify the intended interface and image before staging remote administration.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S is discontinued: its end-of-sale date was October 30, 2016, and Cisco hardware support ended October 31, 2021. Remaining stock does not restart those milestones. Treat a purchase as a legacy replacement or spare rather than a hardware acquisition carrying an active Cisco support lifecycle.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3560CG-8PC-S new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty is no longer active because hardware support ended October 31, 2021.
Catalyst 3560-C includes the IP Base software feature set and cannot be upgraded to IP Services. The universal image remains an IP Base image, not permission to enable a higher tier. Specify the required features before ordering rather than planning to resolve an unsupported feature requirement through a later license purchase.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S provides a shared 124W PoE budget across eight PoE+ access ports, with a 30W per-port maximum. Maximum per-port capability is not simultaneous maximum output across every port. Size the connected endpoint allocation before ordering, including the power requirements of phones and wireless access points.
The Catalyst 3560-C Gigabit PoE+ switch has two fixed dual-purpose 1G uplinks, each using copper or SFP media. Only one medium operates on each logical uplink at a time. Specify the intended copper or fiber connection before ordering rather than counting both sockets as independently usable uplinks.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S supports Layer 3 routed access with OSPF under IP Base. Its default resource allocation supports 984 IPv4 unicast routes in total, including connected hosts and indirect routes. Compare the complete addressing and routing requirement against that combined allowance before approving the switch for a routed deployment.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S supplies PoE+ on its eight Gigabit access ports, whereas WS-C3560CG-8TC-S has data-only access ports. Both models are discontinued. The powered model suits like-for-like replacement orders serving powered endpoints; the data-only model suits legacy installations whose endpoints receive power independently of the switch.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S uses an internal AC supply, whereas WS-C3560CPD-8PT-S can receive power through its powered uplinks or an auxiliary adapter. Both models are discontinued. The AC-powered model suits legacy replacement orders with local mains power; the powered-uplink version suits matching an existing upstream-powered installation.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S reached the end of Cisco hardware support on October 31, 2021; C9200CX-8P-2X2G-A is the forward replacement after the also-discontinued WS-C3560CX-8PC-S. The original model suits a deliberate legacy spare purchase, while C9200CX-8P-2X2G-A is the model to specify when following the hardware migration chain.
