The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3650-48FQ-E switch is the key to a reliable, high-performance network infrastructure. Designed for scalability, it allows stacking up to 9 switches, drastically simplifying management while enhancing redundancy. The IP Services feature set equipped in the switch ensures advanced enterprise networking features, including superior QoS, comprehensive security, and routing capabilities.
A standout feature is its 48 POE+ ports providing a total power budget of 775W, enabling the switch to power a wide range of devices such as access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones directly through Ethernet cables. This can significantly cut down on the costs and complexity of installing electrical power cabling. Moreover, with its 4 x 10G SFP uplink ports, it ensures high-speed connectivity to the core network, crucial for handling high data traffic efficiently.
In terms of performance, the Catalyst 3650-48FQ-E doesn’t disappoint with a forwarding rate of 130.95Mpps and a switching capacity of 176Gbps, ensuring swift data transfer without bottlenecks, imperative for critical business applications and cloud services. It also supports up to 1000 wireless clients and 50 access points per stack, making it an excellent choice for organizations with dense client environments.
Furthermore, the integration of Cisco’s StackWise-160 technology means that each switch in the stack can work together as a single unit, with a single management plane, which simplifies network upgrades and troubleshooting. Adding or removing a switch from the stack is easy and does not disrupt operation – a significant advantage for businesses that require round-the-clock network availability.
Investing in the Cisco Catalyst WS-C3650-48FQ-E is a strategic move for any enterprise seeking to bolster their network’s performance, flexibility, and scalability while paving the way for future expansion and technological advancements.
