WS-C3560X-24U-L is a 24-port Gigabit UPOE enterprise access switch with LAN Base, a 1U rack chassis, and a modular uplink bay that ships empty. The supplied configuration provides Layer 2+ operation rather than full Layer 3 routed access. The Cisco Catalyst 3560-X family connects IP phones, wireless access points, workstations, and compatible powered endpoints while keeping uplink selection separate from the access-port configuration. The discontinued WS-C3560X-24P-L sibling offers PoE+ instead of UPOE. Optical or copper uplinks depend on the selected network module, not fixed fiber ports in the base chassis. Active cooling uses two C3KX-FAN-23CFM= modules rather than a fanless enclosure. For a legacy purchase, match endpoint power requirements, installed accessories, and the required software entitlement before treating same-port-count variants as interchangeable.

160 Gbps switching capacity defines the switching fabric available for access traffic and installed uplinks. 65.5 Mpps forwarding applies to the configuration with two 10G uplinks, available through C3KX-NM-10G=; the base purchase does not include that module. 800W of shared PoE capacity requires allocation across powered endpoints rather than assuming every connection can draw its individual maximum. Static routing supports 16 routes under LAN Base, allowing limited routing without the dynamic protocol capabilities of higher feature tiers. WS-C3560X-24U-L includes 256 MB of DRAM and 64 MB of flash for software operation and local image storage. Default resource allocation accommodates 6000 MAC entries and 8000 unicast route entries, but hardware table capacity does not remove the software routing limit. RSTP and MSTP support spanning-tree operation, while LACP provides standards-based link aggregation. The dedicated Ethernet management port and local console connections provide administrative access. Physical switch stacking and StackPower are not supported.
Order WS-C3560X-24U-L in new sealed or certified refurbished condition; ORM Systems provides up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including power-on and POST, every port linking at rated speed, PoE output verified under load on every powered port, module bay recognition, PSU status, fan status, and clean boot; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify quantity and condition on the purchase order; 30-day returns apply to every condition, subject to terms. POs are accepted, with Net-30 for government, RMA with advance replacement, and regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US, and MEA for enterprise and volume orders.

Scenario: A multinational corporation needs to deploy 200+ IP phones across two regional branch offices. By installing the WS-C3560X-24U-L Catalyst 3560X 24-Port UPOE LAN Base switch, the IT team delivers up to 60W per port, powers PoE+ IP phones and conference phones over a single Cat5e run, and segments voice traffic with built-in QoS and VLAN support. Outcome: Simplified cabling, rapid voice rollout in hours not days, guaranteed voice quality and energy-efficient operation with Cisco EnergyWise.
Scenario: A university campus IT department must consolidate uplinks for 150+ 802.11ax access points in multiple buildings. Using the WS-C3560X-24U-L, administrators aggregate wireless APs on 24 UPOE ports, leverage 10GbE fiber uplinks, apply Cisco TrustSec for secure guest/staff segmentation, and enforce per-port power budgeting. Outcome: Scalable wireless backhaul, zero-touch PoE provisioning, robust security policies, and high-performance roaming for 10,000 students and faculty.
Scenario: A commercial real estate developer integrates HD PTZ cameras, environmental sensors and digital signage across a 12-floor tower. The WS-C3560X-24U-L switch powers up to 24 high-wattage devices simultaneously, implements IEEE 802.1X port authentication, and leverages LAN Base features for ACL-based microsegmentation. Outcome: Centralized PoE management, enhanced building security, real-time environmental monitoring and low TCO through unified data/IoT infrastructure.
When an endpoint refresh introduces UPOE devices, the 60W per-port ceiling becomes a purchasing constraint rather than merely a port-count question. Separate device power requests from Ethernet connection requirements. Before the PO, total the requested endpoint load and specify whether an additional C3KX-PWR-1100WAC= is required.
When staging an existing LAN Base configuration before replacing production hardware, account for the 255-VLAN feature-set limit rather than assuming the chassis enables every enterprise software feature. Compare the intended configuration with its required entitlement. Specify the required software tier and configuration acceptance checks before the PO.
When purchasing a spare for an installed chassis, accessory completeness matters alongside the base part number. C3KX-PS-BLANK= must remain in an unused power-supply bay to maintain the intended cooling arrangement. Before the PO, identify the installed uplink accessory and specify the required blanking parts with the spare.
Active Cisco service coverage
Cisco service ended October 31, 2021. C9300L-24P-4X-E is the current replacement-chain endpoint; verify endpoint power compatibility rather than assuming a like-for-like UPOE migration.
Dynamic routing with supplied license
LAN Base supports 16 static routes, not OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, or IS-ISv4. Those protocols require higher software feature tiers; the hardware purchase alone does not enable them.
Physical switch stack expansion
Catalyst 3560-X does not support switch stacking or StackPower. WS-C3560X-24U-L therefore cannot add a physical data-stack member or extend an existing power stack.
Every port at maximum UPOE
The default 800W budget falls short of 24 × 60W = 1440W. Adding C3KX-PWR-1100WAC= provides a combined 1800W budget; increased capacity is not full-load single-supply redundancy.

Good solution for UPOE deployments.
WS-C3560X-24U-L identifies a standalone Catalyst 3560-X switch: WS-C3560X is the platform prefix, 24 is the access-port count, U marks UPOE ports, and L selects LAN Base. The configuration has 10/100/1000 Ethernet downlinks and a C3KX-PWR-1100WAC supply; the PID does not specify an installed uplink module.
WS-C3560X-24U-L is managed through browser-based device manager, Cisco IOS CLI over console or Telnet, Cisco Network Assistant, CiscoWorks LMS, and SNMP. SSH requires the cryptographic software image. Local console access uses RJ-45 or USB mini-Type B, and a dedicated Ethernet management port provides another connection path.
800W is the shared PoE budget for WS-C3560X-24U-L with its supplied C3KX-PWR-1100WAC. Individual UPOE ports support 60W, but 24 × 60W requires 1440W, exceeding that default budget. A second C3KX-PWR-1100WAC= increases the combined budget to 1800W. Size the purchase against endpoint demand rather than port count alone.
WS-C3560X-24U-L needs an uplink module because the base configuration ships without one. C3KX-NM-1G= provides four 1G SFP connections; C3KX-NM-10G= supports two 10G SFP+ connections; C3KX-NM-10GT= provides two 10G copper connections. Optical configurations additionally require compatible transceivers selected for the cable type and connection distance.
No, Catalyst 3560-X switches do not support physical switch stacking or StackPower. WS-C3560X-24U-L operates as a standalone switch, not as an additional data-stack member. Managing multiple switches through a management application does not create a shared physical stacking fabric or a shared StackPower power pool.
No, WS-C3560X-24U-L does not include dynamic routing under its supplied LAN Base feature set; static routing is limited to 16 routes. IP Base adds baseline routing capabilities, including routed-access OSPF, while IP Services supplies the advanced routing feature set. Confirm the installed entitlement before accepting a routed-access configuration.
Catalyst 3560-X offers LAN Base, IP Base, and IP Services feature sets through Cisco IOS software activation. WS-C3560X-24U-L supplies LAN Base; higher capabilities require the corresponding entitlement. Activation uses an installed license file, so a hardware quotation should identify the software feature set rather than assume an upgraded image grants every feature.
Yes, WS-C3560X-24U-L reached end of sale October 30, 2016, and Cisco support ended October 31, 2021. Its original replacement was WS-C3650-24PD-L, which is also discontinued. The replacement chain continues to C9300L-24P-4X-E; a purchase of the older switch does not restore Cisco service eligibility.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3560X-24U-L new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime hardware warranty and service ended October 31, 2021. Both ORM conditions include 30-day returns, terms apply; refurbished managed units are bench-tested, firmware verified, and wiped to factory default.
WS-C3560X-24U-L supports 60W UPOE ports, whereas WS-C3560X-24P-L supports 30W PoE+ ports. Both models are discontinued. The U model suits legacy endpoints requiring UPOE; the P model suits legacy PoE+ requirements. Check aggregate endpoint demand and the installed power configuration before selecting either model as a historical spare.
WS-C3560X-24U-L supplies LAN Base, while WS-C3560X-24U-S supplies IP Base. Both models are discontinued. LAN Base suits legacy switching configurations with limited static routing; IP Base suits legacy configurations needing its additional baseline routing features. Match the installed software entitlement to the configuration rather than treating the suffixes as interchangeable.
C9300L-24P-4X-E carries four fixed 10G uplinks, whereas WS-C3560X-24U-L uses a modular uplink bay that ships empty. C9300L-24P-4X-E is the replacement-chain endpoint for buyers specifying fixed uplinks. The discontinued Catalyst 3560-X model instead suits legacy sparing purchases where retaining an existing compatible uplink module is part of the requirement.
No, WS-C3560X-24U-L ships with one C3KX-PWR-1100WAC, while C3KX-PS-BLANK= occupies the second power-supply bay. A second C3KX-PWR-1100WAC= is optional rather than standard. Specify the required supply configuration explicitly, and distinguish additional endpoint-power capacity from the load that must remain supported after a single supply fails.
