Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX 12 Port PoE IP Base | Managed PoE Switch — CON-L2NBD-N9KC0FXB

Maintain reliable access connectivity in space-constrained network closets with the Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX 12 Port PoE IP Base. Built for edge deployments that need both switching and power delivery, this compact Catalyst platform is well suited for branch offices, retail locations, and distributed workspaces where every rack unit counts. With 12 PoE-enabled ports, the switch can support common powered devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras without requiring separate injectors. IP Base management gives IT teams the visibility and control expected in managed access environments, helping standardize configuration and simplify ongoing administration. This model fits organizations that want more than basic connectivity. Catalyst-class hardware is typically chosen where uptime, policy control, and operational consistency matter more than the lowest entry price. For teams replacing unmanaged gear, the 3560-CX provides a cleaner path to segmented access, centralized oversight, and a more disciplined edge network. Use it where compact size, PoE delivery, and Cisco management features need to work together in a single access switch. Ideal For Branch office access switching for phones, printers, and workstations Retail network closets powering cameras and wireless access points Small office aggregation where rack space is limited Distributed edge deployments requiring managed PoE access Why This Product 1 Adds PoE delivery for powered endpoints instead of data-only switching 2 Provides managed Catalyst control rather than unmanaged plug-and-play operation 3 Fits compact edge closets where larger chassis switches are unnecessary 4 Targets access-layer deployments with 12 ports for small-site networking
