Powered Endpoint Access for Campus Closets

WS-C3560X-24P-S is a managed 24-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch for enterprise wiring closets, built as a standalone Cisco Catalyst 3560-X Series 1U platform with IP Base Layer 3 services. Its 24 10/100/1000 downlinks provide PoE+ for IP phones, wireless access points and compliant powered devices, while the uplink bay is empty until a C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-10GT or C3KX-SM-10G module is specified. The Cisco 24-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch fits refresh projects that retain Catalyst 3560-X operations but need modular 1G or 10G uplink choices. WS-C3560X-24U-S keeps the 24-port chassis class but moves to UPOE with a 1100W supply and 800W PoE budget.

WS-C3560X-24P-S price for new stock is $782.25, a 86.7% saving from the Cisco list price of $5,900.00. WS-C3560X-24P-S refurb price is $110.25. WS-C3560X-24P-S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

160 Gbps switching fabric and 65.5 mpps forwarding support routed access at Gigabit edge speeds with the two 10GbE uplink module profile. 435W of available PoE power is shared across 24 PoE+ ports, so a 30W-per-port design needs a different supply mix rather than the base C3KX-PWR-715WAC alone. WS-C3560X-24P-S runs the IP Base image with Static, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, EIGRP Stub and OSPF for Routed Access; PBR, full OSPF, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, VRF-Lite and PIM modes require IP Services. The Catalyst 3560-X standalone platform provides 256 MB DRAM, 64 MB flash, 1005 VLANs, 1K SVIs, up to 11000 unicast routes under the routing template and hardware MACsec on user-facing ports. Management uses the Cisco IOS CLI, a PC-based configuration tool, CiscoWorks LMS, SSH and SNMPv3 when the cryptographic image is installed.

Ordering

WS-C3560X-24P-S is available from ORM Systems as New sealed or Certified refurbished, with PO accepted, Net-30 for government and regional stock plus RMA with advance replacement across the UK, EU, US and MEA. Refurbished managed units are inspected and bench-tested; firmware is verified, configurations are wiped to factory default, every port links at rated speed, PoE output is verified under load and module bay, PSU and fan status are checked. New orders carry up to 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished orders carry up to 1 year, and every condition has 30-day returns with terms applying; request volume pricing or add required C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10GT, C3KX-SM-10G, C3KX-PWR-715WAC or C3KX-PWR-1100WAC lines to the same PO.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Lifecycle ended

Cisco service has ended: end-of-sale was 30 October 2016 and last support was 31 October 2021. The forward replacement chain runs through WS-C3650-24PD-S to C9300L-24P-4X-A.

Uplinks are separate

No uplink module ships in the base chassis. Add C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-10GT or C3KX-SM-10G when the order needs 1G, SFP+, 10GBASE-T, MACsec or Flexible NetFlow uplinks.

PoE budget math

The base 435W budget cannot feed 24 ports at 30W because 24 x 30W equals 720W. Full PoE+ loading needs C3KX-PWR-1100WAC or two C3KX-PWR-715WAC supplies.

License upgrade path

IP Base is included on the PID. IP Services upgrades use C3560X-24-IOS-S-E, C3560X-24-S-E or L-C3560X-24-S-E; no subscription term is part of this platform path.

Best For

Closet Platform Refresh

A site standardizing on legacy IP Base routed access can replace WS-C3560E-24PD-S or WS-C3560G-24PS-S with the same 24-port PoE role and Catalyst 3560X 24 Port PoE IP Base identity. Confirm that Cisco service has ended, then specify condition, support expectations and spares before the PO.

Powered Endpoint Sizing

An access closet feeding IP phones and wireless access points needs power math before hardware is reserved: 24 ports at 30W equals 720W, while the base PoE budget is 435W. For full PoE+ loading, include C3KX-PWR-1100WAC or a second C3KX-PWR-715WAC on the order.

Modular Uplink Staging

A distribution handoff that might move from 1G fiber to 10G later should treat the uplink bay as a separate line item. The base switch ships without fixed uplinks, so choose C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-10GT or C3KX-SM-10G before optics and cabling are quoted.

Not Suitable If

Fixed 10G uplinks

The base chassis ships with an empty uplink bay, not built-in SFP+ ports; C9300L-24P-4X-A is the current successor path with 4x10G uplinks.

Physical switch stacking

Catalyst 3560-X models are standalone switches, so StackWise membership is not available; specify a current stackable successor such as C9300L-24P-4X-A instead.

Full PoE+ on base supply

The 435W budget is below 24 x 30W PoE+ loading; size C3KX-PWR-1100WAC or two C3KX-PWR-715WAC supplies instead.

Active Cisco hardware support

Cisco support for this platform ended 31 October 2021; use the replacement chain ending at C9300L-24P-4X-A for current Cisco support.

Questions & Answers

What does WS-C3560X-24P-S mean?

WS-C3560X-24P-S identifies a Cisco Catalyst 3560-X standalone switch with 24 10/100/1000 PoE+ Ethernet ports and the IP Base feature set. The WS-C3560X segment ties it to the platform, 24P to 24 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports, and S to IP Base.

How is WS-C3560X-24P-S managed?

WS-C3560X-24P-S is managed through Cisco IOS CLI, SSH or Telnet sessions, a PC-based configuration tool and CiscoWorks LMS. SNMPv3 is available when the cryptographic image is installed, and the platform also has console and Ethernet management ports for administrative access.

Is WS-C3560X-24P-S end of life?

WS-C3560X-24P-S is end of support. The end-of-life date was announced on 31 October 2015, end-of-sale was 30 October 2016, and the last date of support was 31 October 2021. The replacement path runs through WS-C3650-24PD-S to C9300L-24P-4X-A.

What warranty comes with WS-C3560X-24P-S from ORM Systems?

WS-C3560X-24P-S is available New sealed with up to 3-year extended warranty or Certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime warranty no longer provides support because Cisco service ended 31 October 2021. Every condition has 30-day returns with terms applying.

Does WS-C3560X-24P-S require a software license?

WS-C3560X-24P-S ships with IP Base, so baseline Layer 3 features are included with the PID. IP Services is an upgrade path through C3560X-24-IOS-S-E, C3560X-24-S-E or L-C3560X-24-S-E. No minimum subscription term is attached to this 3560-X license path.

Which older switches does WS-C3560X-24P-S replace?

WS-C3560X-24P-S is named as the replacement for WS-C3560E-24PD-S and WS-C3560G-24PS-S. Those older models carried IP Base software with 24 PoE Gigabit downlinks, and this model kept the 24-port PoE access role while moving into the Catalyst 3560-X family.

How much PoE power does WS-C3560X-24P-S provide?

WS-C3560X-24P-S provides a 435W PoE budget with the default C3KX-PWR-715WAC supply. Each PoE+ port can support up to 30W, but 24 ports at 30W equals 720W, so full-port PoE+ loading requires C3KX-PWR-1100WAC or two C3KX-PWR-715WAC supplies.

Which uplink modules work with WS-C3560X-24P-S?

WS-C3560X-24P-S uses C3KX-NM-1G, C3KX-NM-10G, C3KX-NM-10GT or C3KX-SM-10G for modular uplinks. The base chassis does not include an uplink module, so SFP, SFP+, 10GBASE-T or service-module needs must be specified separately from transceivers.

What routing protocols does IP Base support on Catalyst 3560-X?

IP Base supports Static, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, EIGRP Stub and OSPF for Routed Access on Catalyst 3560-X. Full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, VRF-Lite, PBR and PIM modes require IP Services, so advanced routing designs need a license upgrade.

Can WS-C3560X-24P-S stack with other switches?

WS-C3560X-24P-S does not stack with other switches because Catalyst 3560-X models are standalone. StackWise Plus applies to Catalyst 3750-X models in the same generation, not this PID. Use the 3560-X when independent management is acceptable, or select a current stackable successor.

What is the difference between WS-C3560X-24P-S and WS-C3560X-24U-S?

WS-C3560X-24U-S supports UPOE with a 1100W AC supply and 800W PoE budget, where WS-C3560X-24P-S supports PoE+ with a 715W supply and 435W budget. The UPOE model suits higher-draw endpoints; the PoE+ model suits standard powered access ports.

What is the difference between WS-C3560X-24P-S and WS-C3560X-24P-E?

WS-C3560X-24P-E carries IP Services, where WS-C3560X-24P-S carries IP Base on the same 24-port PoE+ hardware class. The IP Services model suits full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, VRF-Lite, PBR or PIM designs; the IP Base model suits routed access.

What is the difference between WS-C3560X-24P-S and C9300L-24P-4X-A?

C9300L-24P-4X-A is the current successor at the end of the replacement chain, while WS-C3560X-24P-S is past Cisco support. The successor carries 24 PoE ports, Network Advantage and 4x10G uplinks; the 3560-X model suits like-for-like legacy sparing.
