Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX PD PSE 8-Port PoE, 1G Uplinks | IP Base — CON-L2NBD-WSC356CT

Keep critical edge infrastructure connected with a Cisco Catalyst 3560-CX configuration designed for compact switching environments. With 8 PoE ports and 1G uplinks, it supports powered devices such as phones, cameras, and wireless access points while maintaining straightforward access-layer operation through IP Base functionality. This model is well suited for teams that need reliable switching in a small footprint without moving to oversized chassis hardware. It helps simplify deployment at the edge, where port density, power delivery, and uplink speed must align cleanly with branch and distributed office requirements. The result is a practical platform for extending network access to essential endpoints while preserving room in the rack and budget for higher-value infrastructure priorities. For organizations standardizing Cisco access-layer hardware, this configuration offers a balanced fit: enough PoE capability for common endpoint loads, Gigabit uplinks for upstream connectivity, and a feature set aligned to controlled, predictable network expansion.
