Midmarket/Branch Office LAN

The Catalyst 3500 series XL can also be used as the primary LAN

backbone in a smaller ofﬁce environment for mid-market

customers and enterprise branch ofﬁces (Figure 4). In these

applications, the Catalyst 3500 series XL offers customers

tremendous network scalability via Switch Clustering

management and the ability to easily increase the LAN size with

GigaStack stacking technology—making network additions and

changes very easy.

Low-Cost Multilayer Services

When deployed together with a Catalyst Layer 3 switch, the

Catalyst 3500 series XL product line offers an excellent low-cost

multilayer switch solution for cost-conscious users (Figure 5). In

small workgroup environments this combination

stackable/scalable Layer 3 solution offers customers the ability to

implement wire-speed connections with inter-VLAN routing,

quality of service, and multilayer services.
