Catalyst 3550 Series; L2 or L3?

[insccisco]

Hi guys,

I'm not too sure but I have a 48-port Catalyst 3550 Series switch and I need to know if this switch is a Layer 3 switch?

When I do a sh ver, one of the things it says is "Running Layer2/3 Switching Image"

thanks in advance

What would be the details on this? I mean on the link.... I know I would have to buy the link adapters, and then configure them. But what about the speed? will the hosts located in sw2 be able to locate the servers at sw1 at the same speed as if those servers were on the same sw as the hosts?

thanks
