Chapter 1: Avaya C360 Overview The C360 is a line of converged stackable switches that provide high availability, quality of service (QoS), and IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) to enhance converged network infrastructure operations. With a range of PoE and non-PoE configurations, the C360 series is a powerful, yet cost-effective option for enterprise applications. With C360 switches, you can deploy PoE and multilayer switching using one switch, while maintaining the simplicity and the
