Cisco’s C3650-48FQ-S also includes an IP base feature set, making it suitable for enterprise-level applications and securing the network with robust access control features. Additionally, its forwarding performance of 104.16Mpps and switching capacity of 176Gbps ensures that the switch can support the most data-intensive tasks without sacrificing speed or reliability.
The device also features a user-friendly design with a minimal footprint. At only 1U in rack height and with a weight of 17.49 Kg, it conserves valuable rack space and simplifies installation and maintenance processes. Given the robust set of features and the reliable brand reputation of Cisco, investing in the Catalyst WS-C3650-48FQ-S switch offers long-term benefits and reliability for any business aiming to enhance its network infrastructure.
Cisco Catalyst WS-C3650-48FQ-S is the next generation of enterprise-level stable access layer switch and integrates with 48 POE+ Ethernet ports and 4 x 10G SFP uplink ports in IP base feature set.
