Cisco Catalyst 3560-E Fixed Aggregation Switches 
Vivian:
 Hello, everyone. I’m Vivian Clark, from Network Systems Marketing at Cisco. Thanks for 
tuning in to this edition of our online LAN switching update. 
Today’s session will cover the Catalyst 3560E-12D and the Catalyst 3560E-12SD, the latest 
additions to our Catalyst fixed switching family; how they address your pain points; and hence why 
these new switches are important to you.  
With me today is Madhu Reddy, Product Manager from the Desktop Switching Business Unit. 
Welcome, Madhu!  
Madhu:
 Thanks, Vivian, glad to be here. 
Vivian:
 The Cisco Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Series Switches were introduced in early 2007. Tell 
us about these switches.  
Madhu:
 Sure. The Cisco Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Series Switches are an enterprise-class line 
of fixed wiring closet and aggregation switches. These switches facilitate the deployment of high-
performance converged applications. The “pay-as-you-grow” model with StackWise Plus in Cisco 
Catalyst 3750-E Series helps to minimize the total cost of ownership.  
Vivian: 
That’s great, Madhu. And you’re adding two new products to this family, right?  
Madhu:
 Yes. Two new switching products were introduced in January of 2008. These two products 
are:  
● 
The Catalyst 3560E-12D, with 12 10 Gig X2 ports, and 
● 
The Catalyst 3560E-12SD, with 12 1 Gig SFP ports and 2 10 Gig X2 uplink ports 
 
Besides the two new switches, we also introduced an innovative enhanced Power over Ethernet (or 
ePoE) solution, which scales beyond 15.4W per port on the Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Series 
Switches.  
Vivian: 
Madhu, where do these switches belong in the network?  
Madhu:
 Very good question. The Catalyst 3560E-12D is a 10GE aggregation switch for the 
Catalyst 3560-E and 3750-E Series Switches, and the Catalyst 3560E-12SD is a 1GE aggregation 
switch for the Catalyst 3560, 3750, and 2960 Series Switches. Both these switches come in a 
compact 1RU form factor and are ideal for the space- and power-constrained environments such 
as wiring closets. They also support the TwinGig module for mixed 1GE and 10GE deployments.
