WS-C3560X-24U-E is a standalone Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 24 Gigabit copper ports, Cisco UPOE and the IP Services feature set. The Catalyst 3560-X occupies one rack unit and uses a modular uplink bay rather than fixed uplink ports; the base configuration does not include a port-bearing uplink module. Compatible modules provide Gigabit fiber, 10G fiber or 10G copper connections. UPOE supports compatible powered endpoints alongside conventional PoE and PoE+ devices. The discontinued WS-C3560X-24P-E differs by providing PoE+ instead of UPOE. This configuration combines powered access with advanced routing, but remains a standalone switch rather than a hardware stack member.

160 Gbps switching capacity provides the switching fabric for access traffic, while 65.5 Mpps forwarding applies to the configuration with two 10GbE uplinks. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 support advanced IPv4 routing under IP Services; OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 extend routing to IPv6. WS-C3560X-24U-E uses 256 MB DRAM and 64 MB flash memory. Forwarding resources depend on the selected template: the routing template supports 11000 total unicast routes, while the VLAN template provides the 12000-entry MAC ceiling. These maxima belong to different resource allocations. 135.41W consumption with C3KX-SM-10G and no PoE loading describes switch operation under that configuration, not full consumption with powered endpoints. Two C3KX-FAN-23CFM= fan modules, each containing two fans, provide chassis cooling.
WS-C3560X-24U-E is available new sealed or certified refurbished, with refurbished units inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, clean boot, rated-speed port links, PoE output under load on every powered port, module bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify condition, quantity and required accessories on the purchase order. New units carry up to a 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished units up to 1 year, and both conditions include 30-day returns; terms apply. Enterprise and volume orders accept POs, with Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement, and regional stock/RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

In a corporate branch office, the WS-C3560X-24U-E Catalyst 3560X 24 Port UPoE IP Svcs switch powers IP desk phones, video conferencing endpoints and wireless gateways with up to 60W per port. Its integrated Layer 3 routing, advanced QoS and PoE power management simplify network design and ensure consistent call quality. Outcome: reduced infrastructure complexity, lower cabling costs and guaranteed high-definition voice and video performance.
When rolling out 802.11ac Wave 2 access points across auditoriums, lecture halls or open-plan offices, the WS-C3560X-24U-E Catalyst 3560X 24 Port UPoE IP Svcs switch delivers reliable high-power PoE to each AP. Its Cisco EnergyWise and per-port power allocation optimizes energy consumption while advanced PoE scheduling streamlines deployment. Outcome: rapid, scalable wireless coverage, centralized PoE provisioning and up to 30% lower operational expenses.
In smart campuses or enterprise facilities, the WS-C3560X-24U-E Catalyst 3560X 24 Port UPoE IP Svcs switch supports high-resolution PTZ cameras, environmental sensors and door controllers on a single network. Built-in VLAN segmentation, Access Control Lists and resilient stacking deliver secure device isolation and continuous uptime. Outcome: real-time monitoring with unified management, enhanced security posture and streamlined edge-device power infrastructure.
A change-control lab needs to validate local console access before loading a production configuration. USB console input takes precedence over the RJ-45 console when both connections are present, so simultaneous operator access needs planning. Specify the workstation connection and console-access procedure in the staging requirements before issuing the hardware PO.
A branch rollout requires the power connection to match the installation region rather than the location of the purchasing office. CAB-3KX-AC= is the North American power-cord option, while CAB-3KX-AC-UK= serves the United Kingdom. Identify each destination and specify the matching cord PID with the switch quantity before approving the purchase order.
A routed-access purchase needs to accommodate an existing inventory of VLAN interfaces without confusing interface count with route capacity. The switch supports 1000 switched virtual interfaces, while forwarding-resource allocation depends on the selected template. Specify the interface inventory and intended resource template in the staging requirements before placing the hardware order.
Hardware stacking across multiple switches
WS-C3560X-24U-E supports neither switch stacking nor StackPower. C9300L-24P-4X-A is the current migration option with StackWise-320 and fixed uplinks; endpoint-power compatibility requires separate checking.
Multigigabit connections for access endpoints
WS-C3560X-24U-E access ports operate at 10/100/1000 Mbps. Optional uplink modules do not increase those downlink speeds, so the native access interfaces cannot meet multigigabit endpoint requirements.
Active Cisco hardware support coverage
Cisco hardware support for WS-C3560X-24U-E ended October 31, 2021. C9300L-24P-4X-A is the current forward replacement, with fixed uplinks rather than the original modular arrangement.

WS-C3560X-24U-E identifies a standalone Catalyst 3560-X switch: WS-C3560X denotes the hardware family, 24 denotes the access-port count, U denotes UPOE, and E denotes IP Services. The configuration includes Gigabit copper access ports and a C3KX-PWR-1100WAC power supply; an uplink module is separate.
WS-C3560X-24U-E supports web-based Device Manager, Cisco IOS CLI through console or Telnet, Cisco Network Assistant, CiscoWorks LMS and SNMP management. SSH requires a cryptographic software image. Specify the management method during staging and confirm the installed image before approving a remotely administered configuration.
WS-C3560X-24U-E is discontinued: end of sale was October 30, 2016, and Cisco hardware service ended October 31, 2021. The original replacement, WS-C3650-24PD-E, is also discontinued; the migration chain now reaches C9300L-24P-4X-A. Legacy orders should identify reseller coverage rather than rely on active Cisco hardware support.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3560X-24U-E new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Both conditions include 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original Enhanced Limited Lifetime Warranty ended with Cisco hardware support on October 31, 2021.
WS-C3560X-24U-E includes IP Services, activated through a Cisco IOS license file. Catalyst 3560-X also offers LAN Base and IP Base tiers, with factory, paper and electronic upgrade paths. For refurbished procurement, confirm the installed feature activation rather than using the part number as a substitute for an entitlement check.
WS-C3560X-24U-E provides an 800W shared budget with its standard C3KX-PWR-1100WAC, while each UPOE port supports 60W. Two C3KX-PWR-1100WAC supplies support an 1800W aggregate budget. Specify supply quantity against planned endpoint demand rather than treating the per-port maximum as simultaneously available on every interface.
The Catalyst 3560-X IP Services configuration supports OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4, OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6. The routing template provides 11000 total unicast routes. Match that resource template to the proposed route inventory during staging, and retain the required software tier explicitly on the purchase order.
WS-C3560X-24U-E supports 60W UPOE, whereas WS-C3560X-24P-E supports 30W PoE+. Both are discontinued standalone IP Services models. The UPOE configuration addresses compatible higher-draw endpoints; the PoE+ variant corresponds to lower-power endpoint requirements in an existing installation. Select between them by endpoint power compatibility, not port count.
WS-C3560X-24U-E includes IP Services, whereas discontinued WS-C3560X-24U-S includes IP Base. IP Services enables full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4; IP Base provides EIGRP Stub and OSPF for routed access. The E configuration suits advanced routing requirements, while the S configuration corresponds to baseline routed access in an existing estate.
C9300L-24P-4X-A provides four fixed 10G uplinks, whereas WS-C3560X-24U-E requires a separate uplink module. The current successor follows the discontinued WS-C3650-24PD-E in the migration chain. The older modular configuration suits like-for-like legacy sparing; the fixed-uplink successor suits buyers specifying the current replacement rather than preserving earlier modules.
