WS-C3560E-48PD-S is a standalone Layer 2+ access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE ports and two fixed 10G X2 uplink interfaces. The Catalyst 3560-E configuration combines copper endpoint connections with a separate uplink architecture for enterprise wiring closets. IP Base is the included software feature set, and the full-width chassis occupies one rack unit. IP phones and wireless access points share the available endpoint-power allocation rather than receiving unrestricted power on every connection. The discontinued WS-C3560E-48TD-S is the closest data-only sibling: its access ports do not supply PoE. Buyers retaining an existing installation should distinguish this X2-based configuration from switches using native SFP+ uplinks.

128 Gbps switching capacity provides the internal switching fabric for access and uplink traffic. 101.2 Mpps forwarding defines packet-processing capacity separately from interface speed. 370W of shared PoE capacity must cover aggregate endpoint demand, not simply the number of connected devices. Static routing, RIPv1 and RIPv2 support basic routed connections; OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and PIM routing are outside the included feature set. WS-C3560E-48PD-S carries 128 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash for operation and software storage. Resource allocation depends on the selected Switching Database Manager template: the VLAN template supports 12000 MAC entries, while the routing template supports 11000 total unicast routes. Those maxima are not simultaneous allocations. Cisco Catalyst 3560E-48PD management includes the Cisco IOS CLI, a console connection and an out-of-band Ethernet management port.
Specify WS-C3560E-48PD-S quantities and either new sealed or certified refurbished condition on the purchase order. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, clean boot, every port linking at rated speed, and PoE output under load on every powered port; firmware is verified and configuration is wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days on every condition, with terms applying. PO orders are accepted, government buyers receive Net-30 terms, and RMA includes advance replacement; identify condition and quantities separately for enterprise and volume orders.

When replacing a switch supplying phones or access points, distinguish individual endpoint demand from the shared allocation. The standard configuration supports 24 powered connections at 15.4W or 48 at 7.7W, with mixed allocations between those arrangements. Record each endpoint's required power and the intended powered-port population before the PO.
When a consolidation order must preserve multiple VLAN gateways, the switch supports 1005 VLANs and 1000 SVIs. Resource allocation changes with the selected Switching Database Manager template, so a configuration emphasizing VLANs is not interchangeable with a routing-focused configuration. Record the required VLAN and interface counts before issuing the PO.
For a lab or staging order that must reproduce existing frame settings, jumbo frames reach 9216 bytes on Gigabit ports. The acceptance configuration should include representative frame sizes and the intended interface settings rather than only a link-up test. Specify the staging configuration and its acceptance checks separately from the hardware PO.
Power above 15.4W per port
WS-C3560E-48PD-S limits individual powered ports to 15.4W. A larger compatible supply changes aggregate PoE capacity but does not increase the individual port's power class.
Internal dual-supply redundancy
WS-C3560E-48PD-S has one internal power-supply slot. Backup power requires external PWR-RPS2300 hardware; a second internal supply cannot be installed for redundant operation.
Current Cisco-supported hardware
Cisco service for WS-C3560E-48PD-S ended January 31, 2018. C9300L-48P-4X-A is the current replacement-chain endpoint, retaining 48-port PoE density with four 10G uplinks.

WS-C3560E-48PD-S identifies a Catalyst 3560-E configuration with 48 Gigabit PoE ports, two 10G X2 uplinks and IP Base. WS-C3560E names the series, 48 is the access-port count, PD identifies the PoE configuration with dual X2 uplinks, and S denotes IP Base. The standard configuration includes C3K-PWR-750WAC.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S is managed through the Cisco IOS CLI using console, SSH or Telnet, with Cisco Network Assistant providing a PC-based GUI. CiscoWorks LMS supports centralized administration, while SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 support monitoring. SSH and encrypted SNMPv3 require a cryptographic software image; an out-of-band Ethernet management port is also available.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S reached end of sale on January 30, 2013, and its last date of support was January 31, 2018; Cisco service has ended. The original replacement WS-C3560X-48P-S is also discontinued, as is its replacement WS-C3650-48PD-S. The current endpoint of that replacement chain is C9300L-48P-4X-A.
ORM offers WS-C3560E-48PD-S new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. The original Cisco Catalyst 3560-E 90-day limited warranty is not active: Cisco service and warranty coverage ended January 31, 2018.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S includes IP Base, and IP Services activation uses 3560E-IPS-LIC-B=. Advanced IP Services activation from IP Base uses 3560E-AISK9-LIC-B=, or 3560E-AISK9-LIC-S= from IP Services. LL-3560E-IPB= covers used-equipment IP Base relicensing. Hardware condition and software entitlement are separate purchasing considerations; confirm the required feature-set entitlement for the order.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S provides a shared 370W PoE budget with a 15.4W individual port maximum. The standard configuration supports 24 ports at 15.4W or 48 ports at 7.7W, with mixed allocations between those arrangements. Connecting powered devices to every port does not increase the aggregate available power.
The Catalyst 3560-E configuration uses two X2 interfaces for 10G uplinks, with X2-10GB-SR=, X2-10GB-LR= and X2-10GB-ER= available for their respective optical connections. CVR-X2-SFP converts one X2 interface into two Gigabit SFP connections. GLC-SX-MM= is a compatible Gigabit option through CVR-X2-SFP; native SFP+ transceivers do not fit the X2 interface.
Yes, WS-C3560E-48PD-S supports external backup power through PWR-RPS2300, but the chassis has only one internal power-supply slot. C3K-PWR-750WAC is the standard internal supply, and CAB-RPS2300-E= is the matching external backup cable. PWR-RPS2300 can back up two switches simultaneously among six connected switches; external backup is not dual internal redundancy.
No, WS-C3560E-48PD-S does not include OSPF or BGPv4 in its IP Base feature set; included routing is Static, RIPv1 and RIPv2. IP Services enables the additional dynamic routing protocols through a separate activation entitlement. Hardware route capacity and the protocols authorized by the installed feature set are separate limits.
No, Catalyst 3560-E switches are standalone switches rather than hardware-stack members. Cisco Network Assistant can provide centralized administration, but shared administration does not create a hardware stack or a shared switching fabric. Treat each chassis as an independent switch when specifying inter-switch connections, configuration responsibilities and replacement quantities.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S supplies PoE, whereas WS-C3560E-48TD-S provides data-only Gigabit access ports. Both discontinued models have 48 access ports, two 10G X2 uplinks and IP Base. The powered configuration addresses legacy installations with switch-powered endpoints; the data-only configuration addresses existing connections whose devices receive power separately.
WS-C3560E-48PD-S includes IP Base, while WS-C3560E-48PD-E includes IP Services. IP Services adds OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and PIM routing beyond the basic routing included with IP Base. Both models are discontinued. The S configuration addresses basic routed legacy access; the E configuration addresses legacy installations requiring the additional licensed routing protocols.
C9300L-48P-4X-A provides four 10G uplinks, compared with two 10G X2 uplinks on WS-C3560E-48PD-S. Both configurations retain 48-port PoE access density, but the older switch is discontinued and its Cisco service has ended. The older configuration addresses an existing X2-based installation; C9300L-48P-4X-A addresses a current replacement requiring more uplink connections.
