Product Overview
The Catalyst 3750-E and Catalyst 3560-E family 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.
The Catalyst 3750-E switches support stacking through Cisco StackWise technology. The
Catalyst 3560-E switches do not support switch stacking. Unless otherwise noted, the term switch refers
to a standalone switch and to a switch stack.
