Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX 12-Port PoE IP Base | Managed Switch — CON-L14HR-FPR4115A

Maintain reliable access-layer connectivity in space-constrained environments with the Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX 12 Port PoE IP Base. Built for branch offices, retail locations, and distributed workspaces, this switch brings wired endpoints, phones, and networked devices onto a managed platform designed for practical day-to-day control. Its 12-port PoE design reduces the need for separate power injectors and helps simplify desk, wall, or small rack deployments. IP Base management gives network teams the core tools needed for VLAN segmentation, access control, and operational visibility without adding unnecessary complexity. That makes it a strong fit for organizations that want predictable switching behavior at the edge. The Catalyst 3560-CX family is known for compact form factors and enterprise-oriented reliability, which helps justify the investment when compared with lower-tier access switches. For teams standardizing Cisco infrastructure, this model supports consistent operations across remote sites while keeping the footprint and cabling burden under control. Ideal For Branch office access switching for phones, printers, and desktop endpoints Retail network aggregation for POS terminals and powered peripherals Small office PoE deployment where rack space and cabling are limited Distributed site standardization across Cisco-managed campus edge networks Why This Product 1 More suitable for managed branch access than unmanaged desktop switches 2 PoE support reduces dependence on external power injectors 3 Cisco Catalyst platform offers stronger operational consistency than entry-level SMB gear 4 Compact CX design fits deployments where full-size rack switches are excessive
