Is is a truly unmanaged switch that can not be addressed whatsoever, or is a switch that can be assigned an IP address and managed, but just hasn't been done yet??? I believe that 99.44% of Cisco switches are all manageable (have a MAC associated with them). Persausions and dissausions for this statement are welcome...
Cheap and easy rule of thumb...if it supports SNMP, it has a MAC address. As to how to determine the MAC....show interface on the newer switches, or on CATOS switches, show module (shows addresses for a module), and show mac to view MAC addresses of whatever is connected to a particular port).
