Choosing the Cisco WS-C3850-24U-E Catalyst 3850 Switch promises numerous benefits for your network infrastructure. Firstly, the switch’s Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) empowers your network with the ability to align wired and wireless policies and increase application visibility. This unified approach ensures a more secure and manageable network environment.
The switch’s StackWise-480 technology is a standout feature that allows you to stack up to 9 switches, creating a unified system with a consolidated management platform. This capability not only simplifies your network operations but also significantly boosts its resiliency. In the event of a single unit failure, the remaining stacked units continue to function seamlessly, minimizing downtime and maintaining productivity.
With the switch’s 24 UPOE ports, you receive the flexibility to power a vast array of devices, including next-generation IP phones and wireless access points, directly through the Ethernet cable. This effectively reduces cabling complexity and costs. Additionally, the Catalyst 3850 is equipped with a 1100 W AC power supply, ensuring sufficient power distribution to connected devices.
Performance is crucial in a network switch, and with a substantial switching capacity of 92 Gbps and a stack bandwidth of 480 Gbps, the WS-C3850-24U-E is designed to handle intense data traffic efficiently. Furthermore, the switch comes equipped with 4 GB of RAM and 2 GB of flash memory, allowing it to manage a large number of wireless clients and access points without compromising speed or stability.
In summary, investing in the Cisco WS-C3850-24U-E Catalyst 3850 Switch is a forward-thinking choice for businesses aiming for a robust, scalable, and harmonized networking environment that aligns with future technological advancements.
Cisco WS-C3850-24U-E supports Stackable 24 10/100/1000 Cisco UPOE ports, 1 network module slot, 1100 W power supply and 1RU chassis. Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series provides capabilities that ideally suited to support the convergence of wired and wireless access. The new Cisco Unified Access Data™ Plane (UADP) Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) powers the switch and enables uniform wired-wireless policy enforcement, application visibility, flexibility, and application optimization. This convergence is built on the resilience of the new and improved Cisco StackWise®-480 technology.
