WS-C3560V2-48PS-E

The WS-C3560V2-48PS-E is a powerful managed Layer 3 Ethernet switch belonging to the Cisco Catalyst 3560V2 Series. It's designed for demanding environments in enterprise networks, data centers, or high-performance workgroups that require advanced features, security, and scalability. Here's a breakdown of its key functionalities:

Type: Managed Layer 3 Ethernet Switch

• Managed: This switch offers extensive configuration and monitoring capabilities through a web interface or command-line for functionalities like security, performance optimization, traffic management, and routing.
• Layer 3: Unlike previous models discussed, this switch operates at Layer 3 of the OSI model. This means it can intelligently route data packets based on network addresses, allowing for efficient traffic management within complex networks.

Ports:

• 48 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet Ports: These RJ45 ports can connect devices like computers, printers, and network servers, offering Gigabit Ethernet speeds (up to 1 Gbps) for high-performance data transfer.
• 2 x Gigabit SFP Uplink Ports: Similar to other models, these dedicated SFP ports allow for high-speed uplink connections to other network devices using SFP transceiver modules (purchased separately).
