The Catalyst 3512 XL switch has 12 10/100 switched ports
and two Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC)-based Gigabit
Ethernet ports, and the Catalyst 3524 XL has 24 10/100
ports and two GBIC-based Gigabit Ethernet ports. The
built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports accommodate a range of
GBIC transceivers, including the Cisco GigaStack
and 1000BaseSX and 1000BaseLX/LH GBICs.
The Catalyst 3512 XL and Catalyst 3524 XL are ideal
for desktop connectivity and aggregating a group of Catalyst
2900 series XL or Catalyst 1900 switches. The 12-port
Catalyst 3512 XL offers low port density at a low entry price.
The 24-port Catalyst 3524 XL delivers dedicated 10- or
100-Mbps bandwidth to individual users and servers at the
lowest per port price. The switches' dual GBIC-based Gigabit
Ethernet ports provide an ultra-flexible and scalable solution
for Gigabit Ethernet uplinks or GigaStack GBIC stacking
solutions. Available in Standard and Enterprise Editions, the
Catalyst 3512 XL and Catalyst 3524 XL switches are
software upgradable, so your investment is protected and
your LAN can grow and evolve with your network
requirements. The switches are easy to deploy, either on a
desktop or in a wiring closet, and feature Cisco IOS
software support.

The Catalyst 3512 XL and Catalyst 3524 XL are autosensing 10/100 switches for
creating high-performance LANs. Available in Standard and Enterprise
Editions, the switches provide 12 or 24 10/100 ports and two built-in GBIC-based
Gigabit Ethernet ports with wire-speed performance on all ports
New Cisco Scalable Stacking Architecture
Cisco Systems, the leader in internetworking solutions,
provides the industry's most flexible, scalable, and
manageable stacking architecture for Catalyst 3500 series
XL and gigabit-enabled Catalyst 2900 series XL switches.
Flexible Stacking
The Catalyst 3500 series XL and gigabit-enabled Catalyst
2900 series XL switches can be stacked using the low-cost
Cisco GigaStack GBIC. The two-port GigaStack GBIC offers
a range of highly configurable stacking and performance
options by delivering 1-Gbps half-duplex connectivity in a
daisy-chained connection or up to 2-Gbps full-duplex
connectivity in a dedicated, switch-to-switch connection.
