WS-C3560CG-8TC-S is a fanless, managed Layer 3 desktop switch with eight Gigabit Ethernet access ports and two fixed 1G combo uplinks. Each uplink uses either its copper connector or its SFP cage, rather than both simultaneously. The Cisco Catalyst 3560-C runs Cisco IOS IP Base for enterprise access without supplying PoE to connected endpoints. The discontinued WS-C3560CG-8PC-S is the closest powered sibling, adding PoE+ access ports.
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S price for new stock is $1,480.50, a 12.9% saving from the Cisco list price of $1,700.00. WS-C3560CG-8TC-S refurb price is $425.25. WS-C3560CG-8TC-S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

14.9 Mpps forwarding is rated for 64-byte packets, with 10 Gbps forwarding bandwidth. OSPF provides routed access within IP Base. WS-C3560CG-8TC-S carries 128 MB DRAM and 64 MB flash memory. SDM templates in Cisco Catalyst compact switches allocate resources toward access, routing, or VLAN configurations. MACsec is available on this Gigabit configuration, while LACP supports Ethernet channel groups with compatible equipment. Hardware stacking is not supported.
Order WS-C3560CG-8TC-S in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, and put the quantity and required accessories on the purchase order. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, clean boot, optics bay recognition, and PSU status; firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. New units include up to a 3-year extended warranty, and certified refurbished units include up to 1 year; every condition includes 30-day returns, with terms applying. For enterprise and volume purchases, POs are accepted and Net-30 is available for government orders.

In a 50-seat branch office, IT deploys the WS-C3560CG-8TC-S Catalyst 3560C Switch 8 GE, 2 x Dual Uplink, IP Base to power VoIP phones and 802.11ac access points over eight PoE ports. With built-in Cisco IOS QoS and security features, the switch ensures voice traffic gets priority, simplifies rack footprint, and eliminates separate power injectors. Outcome: streamlined deployment, lower OPEX, and crystal-clear voice & Wi-Fi connectivity in a compact, energy-efficient form factor.
A mid-size retail chain integrates IP cameras and point-of-sale terminals using the WS-C3560CG-8TC-S Catalyst 3560C Switch. Dual Gigabit uplinks connect to the data center, while eight GE PoE ports power HD cameras and cash registers. Cisco’s IP Base feature set provides VLAN segmentation, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, and broadcast storm protection. Benefit: unified infrastructure reduces cabling, enhances network visibility, and delivers secure, high-availability surveillance and transaction traffic.
In a manufacturing plant, engineers install the WS-C3560CG-8TC-S Catalyst 3560C Switch on the factory floor to connect PLCs, sensors, and PC workstations. The device’s robust IOS IP Base security modules, advanced QoS, and dual uplinks to the control center guarantee deterministic performance and zero packet loss. Outcome: increased production uptime, real-time data capture for predictive maintenance, and simplified network segmentation for OT/IT convergence.
A branch rollout places compact switches on desks or shelves where installation space must be agreed before purchasing. Ventilation openings require at least 76 mm of clearance, and front and rear connections must remain accessible. Confirm the mounting location, cable access, and surrounding space before finalizing the purchase order.
An existing WS-C3560CG-8TC-S fleet needs replacement stock separated from new deployment purchases. ORM supports RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA handling across the UK, EU, US, and MEA. Specify spare quantities, regional handling, and replacement requirements on the purchase order before consolidating the replenishment request.
PoE-powered phones and access points
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S does not supply endpoint power. C9200CX-8P-2X2G-A provides eight PoE+ ports and a 240W budget when powered access is required.
10G links to distribution
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S has fixed 1G uplinks, without SFP+ ports or a removable uplink bay. Different transceivers cannot convert the built-in interfaces into 10G uplinks.
Active Cisco hardware service coverage
Cisco hardware service for WS-C3560CG-8TC-S ended October 31, 2021. C9200CX-12T-2X2G-A is the forward migration model, increasing the access-port count from eight to 12.

WS-C3560CG-8TC-S identifies an IP Base compact Gigabit data switch. WS-C3560CG selects the Catalyst 3560-C Gigabit configuration; 8 denotes eight access ports; TC identifies the data configuration with two dual-purpose uplinks; S selects IP Base. The complete PID distinguishes this non-PoE model from powered variants.
The Catalyst 3560-C supports browser-based Device Manager, Cisco IOS CLI through RJ-45 or USB console, Telnet, SSH with a cryptographic image, and SNMP management. Cisco Network Assistant, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, CiscoView, CiscoWorks LMS, HP OpenView, SunNet Manager, and Cisco Configuration Engine provide additional management paths.
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S ended sale October 30, 2016, and Cisco hardware support ended October 31, 2021. Cisco first named WS-C3560CX-8TC-S as its replacement, but that model also ended sale April 30, 2024. The forward migration chain now leads to the 12-port C9200CX-12T-2X2G-A.
ORM supplies WS-C3560CG-8TC-S new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Every condition includes 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty no longer provides coverage: Cisco hardware service ended October 31, 2021.
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S includes Cisco IOS IP Base, and the compact switch cannot be upgraded to another feature set. Specify IP Base on an exact-match replacement order and validate the required software functions before purchasing. An additional software-tier purchase does not change this model's fixed feature set.
WS-C3560CG-8PC-S has eight PoE+ access ports and a shared 124W budget, while WS-C3560CG-8TC-S has no PoE output. Both models are discontinued. The data model suits independently powered endpoints; the powered variant addresses exact-match replacement orders that must preserve existing endpoint-power delivery.
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S uses an internal AC supply, while WS-C3560CPD-8PT-S can receive PoE+ through its uplinks or use the PWR-ADPT= auxiliary adapter. Both models are discontinued. The AC model suits replacements with local mains power; the PD variant addresses existing installations powered from an upstream switch.
C9200CX-12T-2X2G-A has 12 data ports, versus eight on WS-C3560CG-8TC-S. The older switch is discontinued, and its first replacement, WS-C3560CX-8TC-S, also ended sale April 30, 2024. The legacy unit addresses exact-match replacement requirements, while the forward migration model suits purchases requiring additional access-port density.
WS-C3560CG-8TC-S provides two fixed 1G combo uplinks, each using either an RJ-45 connector or an SFP cage. Compatible fiber options include GLC-SX-MM= for multimode links and GLC-LH-SM= for single-mode links. Specify the transceiver PID and fiber type rather than treating the cages as installed optics.
Yes, the Catalyst 3560-C can be installed in a 19-inch rack using RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= brackets. The 269 mm-wide chassis is a desktop unit rather than a full-width rack chassis. Specify RCKMNT-19-CMPCT= when rack installation is required, and allow unrestricted ventilation around the installed switch.
