Product Overview

The Catalyst 3560-C and 2960-C of switches, also referred to as the switch, are Ethernet switches to which you can connect devices such as Cisco IP Phones, Cisco Wireless Access Points, workstations, and other network devices such as servers, routers, and other switches.

You can deploy these switches outside of the traditional wiring closet environment, such as in office workspaces, hotel rooms, slot machines, kiosks, and classrooms. The switch is suitable for deployments where there are space and power constraints (access to power outlets).

See the switch software configuration guide for deployment examples.

10/100 and 10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet Downlink Ports

You can set the 10/100 ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can set the 10/100/1000 ports to operate at 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s in full-duplex or half-duplex mode. You can also set these ports for speed and duplex autonegotiation. (The default setting is autonegotiate.)

Automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) is a feature that allows the switch interface to detect the required cable connection type (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configure the connection appropriately. With auto-MDIX enabled, you can use either a straight-through or crossover type cable to connect to the other device, and the interface automatically corrects for any incorrect cabling. In all cases, the attached device must be within 328 feet (100 meters)

The 10/100/1000 ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.

For information about port connections and port specifications, see the “Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 2-33.

PoE Ports (Switches with PoE Ports)

The PoE and PoE+ ports provide PoE support for devices compliant with 802.3af and 802.3at and also provide Cisco prestandard PoE and PoE+ support for Cisco IP Phones and Cisco Aironet Access Points.

All 8 downlink ports on the Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L, 2960C-8PC-L, 2960C-12-PC-L, and the 3560CPD-8PT-S and are PoE-capable. Each port can supply 15.4 W of PoE per port.

The maximum switch power output for the Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L is 22.4 W, and for the

Catalyst 3560CPD-8PT-S is 15.4 W. The maximum switch power output for the Catalyst 2960C-8PC-L and the 2960C-12-PC-L is 123.2 W.

Front Panel

All 8 or 12 downlink ports on the Catalyst,3560CG-8PC-S, 3560C-8PC-S, and 3560C-12PC-S switches are PoE+ capable. The maximum switch power output is 123.2 W. You can budget the PoE and PoE+:

15.4 W of PoE output on eight ports

30 W of PoE+ on four ports

On a per-port basis, you control whether or not a port automatically provides power when an IP phone or an access point is connected.

The 10/100/1000 PoE ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.

Cisco intelligent power management capabilities include enhanced power negotiation, power reservation, and per-port power policing. For information about configuring and monitoring PoE ports, see the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com.

For information about port connections and port specifications, see the “Connecting to the 10/100 and 10/100/1000 Ports” section on page 2-33.

Note The output of the PoE circuit has been evaluated as a Limited Power Source (LPS) per IEC 60950-1.

PoE Pass-Through

The Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L and 3560CPD-8PT-S switches provide PoE pass-through. The

Catalyst 2960CPD-8PT-L is powered either through the 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports receiving power from a PoE or PoE+ switch or through an auxiliary power adapter. The Catalyst 3560CPD-8PT-S is powered through the 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports receiving power from a PoE+ switch or through an auxiliary power adapter. If the switch has surplus power (see Table 1-2), it can power other PoE-capable devices such as IP phones, access points, and so on. See Figure 1-6.

See the “Powering the Switch” section on page 2-4 for information on powering the switches.

PoE Uplink Ports (Catalyst 2960CPD-8TT-L, 2960CPD-8PT-L, and 3560CPD-8PT-S)

The 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports on the Catalyst 2960CPD-8TT-L and 2960CPD-8PT-L can receive power from a PoE or PoE+ switch. The 10/100/1000 PoE uplink ports on the Catalyst 3560CPD-8PT-S can receive power from a PoE+ switch. You can connect each of the uplink ports to different PoE switches or to the same PoE switch. See Figure 1-6.

Note You can also use an external auxiliary power adapter that connects to the rear of the switch. You can order it from your Cisco representative. See the “Auxiliary Power Adapter” section on page 1-17 for information.

Depending upon the available PoE budget, these switches can power other PoE-capable devices such as IP phones, access points, and so on. See Table 1-2 for PoE budgeting information. See Figure 1-6.

For information on powering the switches, see the “Powering the Switch” section on page 2-4.

USB Type A Port

Some models have an USB Type A port. This port provides access to external Cisco USB flash devices (also known as thumb drives or USB keys). The port supports Cisco USB flash drives with capacities from 64 MB to 1 GB.

Cisco IOS software provides standard file system access to the flash device: read, write, erase, and copy, as well as the capability to format the flash device with a FAT file system.

For more information about the switch management ports, see the switch software configuration guide and the command reference on Cisco.com.

Dual-Purpose Ports

You can configure the dual-purpose ports on the switch as either 10/100/1000 ports or as SFP-module ports. You can set the 10/100/1000 ports to autonegotiate, or you can configure them as fixed 10, 100, or 1000 Mb/s (Gigabit) Ethernet ports.

By default, the switch selects the medium for each dual-purpose port (10/100/1000BASE-T or SFP). When a link is achieved on one media type, the switch disables the other media type until the active link goes down. If links are active on both media, the SFP-module port has priority, but you can use the media-type interface configuration command to manually designate the port as an RJ-45 port or an SFP port.

You can configure the speed and duplex settings consistent with the selected media type. For information on configuring interfaces, see the switch software configuration guide.

SFP Modules

The switch Ethernet SFP modules provide connections to other devices. These field-replaceable transceiver modules provide the uplink interfaces.The modules have LC connectors for fiber-optic connections or RJ-45 connectors for copper connections.

You can use any combination of these supported SFP modules:

GLC-LH-SM=

GLC-SX-MM=

GLC-ZX-SM=

GLC-BX-D=

GLC-BX-U=

GLC-FE-100FX=

GLC-FE-100LX=

CWDM SFPs

For information about SFP modules, see your SFP module documentation and the “Installing SFP Modules” section on page 2-31. For cable specifications, see the “SFP Module Cables” section on page B-3.

Management Ports

You can connect the switch to a PC running Microsoft Windows or to a terminal server through either the RJ-45 console port or the USB mini-Type B console port, also referred to as the USB-mini console port.

RJ-45 console port. The RJ-45 connection uses an RJ-45-to-DB-9 female cable.

USB-mini console port (5-pin connector). The USB connection uses a USB Type A-to-5-pin mini-Type B cable.

The USB-mini console interface speeds are the same as the RJ-45 console interface speeds.

To use the USB-mini console port, you must install the Cisco Windows USB device driver on the device that is connected to the USB-mini console port and that is running Microsoft Windows.

Note For information about downloading the Cisco USB device driver, see the “Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB Device Drivers” section on page C-4.

With the Cisco Windows USB device driver, connecting and disconnecting the USB cable from the console port does not affect Windows HyperTerminal operations. Mac OS X or Linux require no special drivers.

Note The 5-pin mini-Type B connectors resemble the 4-pin mini-Type B connectors. They are not compatible. Use only the 5-pin mini-Type B. See Figure 1-7.

Figure 1-7 USB Mini-Type B Port

253163

The configurable inactivity timeout reactivates the RJ-45 console port if the USB-mini console port is activated, but no input activity occurs for a specified time period. When the USB-mini console port deactivates due to a timeout, you can restore its operation by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable. For information on using the CLI to configure the USB-mini console interface, see the switch software guide.

Internal Power Supply

All switches except the Catalyst 2960CPD-8TT-L, 2960CPD-8PT-L, and 3560CPD-8PT-S are powered through their internal power supplies. The internal power supply is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. Plug the AC power cord into the AC power connector and into an AC power outlet.

Auxiliary Power Adapter

The Catalyst 2960CPD-8TT-L, 2960CPD-8PT-L, and 3560CPD-8PT-S switches do not have a internal power supply. You can power the switch through either the 10/100/1000 uplink ports or through an auxiliary power adapter. You can order the auxiliary power adapter (PWR-ADPT) with the switch, or you can order it (PWR-ADPT=) later from your Cisco representative.

Cisco Network Assistant

Network Assistant is a PC-based network management GUI with centralized management of Cisco LAN switches, core switches, routers, access points, IP phones, and PIX firewalls.

Network Assistant is available at no cost and can be downloaded from this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps5931/tsd_products_support_series_home.html

For information on starting Network Assistant, see the Getting Started with Cisco Network Assistant guide on Cisco.com. See the switch release notes for information on CNA support.

Device manager

You can use the device manager, which is in the switch memory, to manage individual and standalone switches. Device manager is a web interface that offers quick configuration and monitoring. You can access the device manager from anywhere in your network through a web browser. For more information, see the device manager online help.

Chapter 1 Product Overview

Network Configurations

Cisco IOS CLI

The switch CLI is based on Cisco IOS software and supports desktop-switching features. You can configure and monitor the switch and switch cluster members from the CLI. You can access the CLI either by connecting your management station directly to the switch console port or by using Telnet from a remote management station. See the switch command reference on Cisco.com for more information.

For setup instructions that use the CLI, go to Appendix C, “Configuring the Switch with the CLI Setup Program.”

CiscoView application

The CiscoView device-management application displays the switch image that you can use to set configuration parameters and to view switch status and performance information. The CiscoView application, which you purchase separately, can be a standalone application or part of a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) platform. See the CiscoView documentation for more information.

SNMP network management

You can use SNMP management applications such as CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution (LMS) and HP OpenView to configure and manage the switch. You also can manage it from an SNMP-compatible workstation that is running platforms such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager.

The Cisco Configuration Engine is a network management device that works with embedded CNS agents in the switch software. You can use the Cisco Configuration Engine to automate initial configurations and configuration updates on the switch.

Network Configurations

See the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com for an explanation of network configuration concepts. The software configuration guide also provides network configuration examples for creating dedicated network segments that are interconnected through Ethernet connections.
