I feel goofy for asking this question, but... there's only one version of the WS-C3560-8PC-S (and all other fixed-config Catalyst switches) no matter what region of the world they're deployed in, right? The only difference region to region is the CAB-AC-<country_name> that comes with it?
I bought a pair of 3560s on the secondary market and they were new in-box but came with the strange-looking power cables pictured below. The box said C3560-8PC-S just like I ordered though. As long as I get my client a pair of CAB-AC= for North American use they should be fine with the switches that came in the box, right?
TIA,
Phil

Hi Phil,
The switch has internal PS and the following applies:
- The internal power supply is an autoranging unit.
- The internal power supply supports input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC.
- Use the supplied AC power cord to connect the AC power connector to an AC power outlet.
So as long as you are in range 100-240VAC from power source, there won't be any smoke :-)

Hi Phil,
Here in table 7 is the list of all 3560 switch part numbers and indeed, there's only one version of the WS-C3560-8PC-S:

So we're fairly certain nothing will blow up if they just use a CAB-AC= with the switches, eh?

The switch probably says something similar to:
50-60 Hz
100-240V
The US uses 60Hz power while many other regions use 50. As far as voltage goes 110 for a typical US wall outlet and 220 for some data center / industrial stuff.
Long story short, check for those ratings on the physical switch. I really think you're good to go though...

Sounds good, Ivan. Thanks!

Welcome, Phil! Thanks for ratings.

Ivan's response was strangly similar to mine...

and you got the rating too ;-)
