Cisco Introduces New Catalyst Stackable Switches

Cisco Systems introduced a new stackable switch platform featuring greater resiliency and Gigabit Ethernet performance. The Cisco Catalyst 3750 Series uses a new "Cisco StackWise" architecture that provides a 32 Gbps stack interconnect for unifying up to nine individual switches. The interconnected switches behave as a single, logical, convergence-optimized unit. The Catalyst 3750 provides stackable resiliency through advanced failover in hardware and software; unified services with distributed forwarding and QoS; automated configuration; performance to handle Gigabit Ethernet connectivity; and IPv6 readiness in hardware. Models include:

  • Catalyst 3750G-24TS with 24 10/100/1000 ports with 4 small form-factor pluggable (SFP) uplinks, starting at $6995.


  • Catalyst 3750G-24T with 24 10/100/1000 ports, starting at $5995.


  • Catalyst 3750-24TS with 24 10/100 ports and 2 SFP uplinks, starting at $4995.


  • Catalyst 3750-48TS with 48 10/100 ports with 4 SFP uplinks, starting at $9995.
