WS-C3560E-12D-S is a managed Layer 3 fiber aggregation switch with twelve fixed 10 Gigabit Ethernet X2 interfaces, IP Base software, and a 1U rack-mount chassis. The Cisco Catalyst 3560-E configuration brings access-switch fiber connections into an aggregation point rather than providing copper endpoint connections or PoE. Network interfaces require compatible X2 modules; the chassis does not provide native SFP+ cages. The discontinued WS-C3560E-12D-E carries IP Services instead of IP Base, making the installed software entitlement an important distinction when matching a replacement to an existing configuration.

60 Gbps switching bandwidth accompanies a 2:1 oversubscribed architecture, so aggregate traffic requirements need attention when several interfaces are heavily loaded. 90 Mpps forwarding applies to 64-byte packets. WS-C3560E-12D-S carries 256 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash memory for its control software and stored image. Static routing, RIP, EIGRP Stub, PIM Stub, and HSRP belong to the IP Base feature set; full OSPF and BGP4 routing require a different software entitlement. Hardware resource ceilings reach 12000 MAC entries and 20000 total unicast routes, with allocation dependent on the selected configuration template rather than every maximum being available simultaneously.
ORM Systems supplies WS-C3560E-12D-S in new sealed and certified refurbished condition, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units; returns are available for 30 days in either condition, terms apply. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed port links, clean boot, PSU status, and fan status, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify the required condition and accessory PIDs on the PO. Enterprise and volume orders accept POs, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across UK, EU, US, and MEA.

When existing fiber circuits remain at Gigabit Ethernet speed, include the conversion hardware in the staging plan. CVR-X2-SFP converts an X2 interface into two Gigabit Ethernet SFP interfaces. Match the required SFP modules and fiber connections to each converted interface, and specify the converter quantities before the PO.
When a replacement is being held for an existing installation, qualify startup behavior rather than accepting a running configuration alone. FN63745 identifies a possible boot failure after a power cycle on affected units. Specify inspection, power-on and POST testing, rated-speed port links, and a clean boot before the PO.
BGP or full OSPF routing
The IP Base feature set provides basic routing rather than full OSPF or BGP4. Those protocols require IP Services activation, not merely a different configuration.
Native copper endpoint connections
The twelve built-in network interfaces use X2 modules rather than RJ-45 endpoint ports. Copper endpoint attachment is not provided by the base chassis configuration.
25G or 100G aggregation links
Native interfaces stop at 10G X2. C9500-24Y4C provides twenty-four 1/10/25G SFP28 interfaces and four 40/100G QSFP28 uplinks, with different port density and optics.

WS-C3560E-12D-S identifies a Catalyst 3560-E configuration with twelve 10 Gigabit Ethernet X2 interfaces and IP Base software. C3560E identifies the switch family, 12D identifies the twelve-interface X2 configuration, and S selects IP Base. The complete identifier distinguishes this fiber aggregation model from copper access configurations.
WS-C3560E-12D-S supports management through Cisco IOS CLI, Cisco Network Assistant, CiscoWorks LMS, and SNMPv1/SNMPv2c/SNMPv3. A console interface and an out-of-band Ethernet management port provide administrative connectivity. Confirm the intended management tools and access method when preparing the purchase order and the configuration used during staging.
WS-C3560E-12D-S belongs to the retired Catalyst 3560-E family. Its migration chain passes through discontinued WS-C4500X-16SFP+ and C9500-16X configurations before reaching C9500-24Y4C. Treat an order for this chassis as a legacy-maintenance purchase, and assess the current replacement separately for a new deployment.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3560E-12D-S new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to 3-year extended coverage for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Returns are available for 30 days in either condition; terms apply. Cisco's original platform warranty was 90 days, separate from ORM coverage; the Catalyst 3560-E family is retired.
WS-C3560E-12D-S starts with IP Base, with activation paths to IP Services and Advanced IP Services. The license file enables the selected feature set within the software image. Confirm the installed entitlement before ordering against an advanced routing requirement, rather than assuming that every feature in the image is active.
WS-C3560E-12D-S accepts X2-10GB-SR=, X2-10GB-LR=, X2-10GB-ER=, X2-10GB-LRM=, X2-10GB-LX4=, and X2-10GB-CX4= interface modules. These are X2 modules, not native SFP+ modules. Specify the required module at each end of the connection, and match the fiber or cable assembly to the chosen interface media before ordering accessories.
Yes, WS-C3560E-12D-S supports dual internal redundant power supplies using C3K-PWR-300WAC or C3K-PWR-300WDC configurations. Power selection can use AC, DC, or a mixture of the two. Confirm the fitted supply configuration and available electrical feeds when specifying a replacement chassis, rather than treating the supply rating as switch power consumption.
Catalyst 3560-E IP Base provides Static routing, RIP, EIGRP Stub, PIM Stub, and HSRP. Full OSPF, EIGRP, BGP4, and policy-based routing belong to IP Services, while Advanced IP Services adds IPv6 routing. Match the installed license to the required routing behavior before accepting a chassis as a configuration-equivalent replacement.
WS-C3560E-12D-S carries IP Base, while discontinued WS-C3560E-12D-E carries IP Services on the same twelve-interface X2 configuration. The difference is the activated software feature set rather than the native interface arrangement. IP Base matches basic-routing legacy configurations; IP Services matches legacy configurations requiring the broader routing feature set.
WS-C3560E-12D-S has no PoE endpoint ports, while discontinued WS-C3560E-24PD-S provides twenty-four Gigabit Ethernet PoE access ports. Both carry IP Base, but the physical connections serve different roles. The 12D configuration matches fiber aggregation maintenance; the 24PD configuration matches legacy copper access installations with powered endpoints.
WS-C3560E-12D-S provides twelve 10G X2 interfaces, while C9500-24Y4C provides twenty-four 1/10/25G SFP28 interfaces and four 40/100G QSFP28 uplinks. The current replacement changes interface density and media requirements. The older chassis serves legacy X2 maintenance; C9500-24Y4C suits buyers specifying a current aggregation configuration with higher-speed connections.
Yes, the Catalyst 3560-E X2 configuration can use CVR-X2-SFP to convert an X2 interface into two Gigabit Ethernet SFP interfaces. The converter changes the interface media arrangement rather than adding native SFP+ connectivity. Specify CVR-X2-SFP and the appropriate SFP modules when assembling the accessory list for existing Gigabit Ethernet fiber circuits.
WS-C3560E-12D-S occupies 1U and measures 44.5 mm high, 445 mm wide, and 495 mm deep, with a weight of 10.7 kg. Check usable rack depth and chassis support before ordering. Include room for the selected interface connections and the rear electrical connections in the installation plan.
