Cisco WS-C3850-24P-E 24x RJ-45 1Gb IPSERVICES Power over Ethernet Switch

The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3850-24P-E is a high-performance enterprise-class access layer switch designed to deliver advanced features in a compact 1RU form factor. It offers 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports with full Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support, enabling efficient deployment of IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other powered devices. This model supports modular uplinks with four 1G/10G SFP+ ports, providing flexible network expansion and high bandwidth uplinks. Powered by Cisco’s IOS XE software platform, the WS-C3850-24P-E supports comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, including advanced routing protocols and security mechanisms. It also supports Cisco StackWise-480 technology, allowing up to nine switches to operate as a single logical unit for simplified management and scalability. This switch is ideal for organizations looking for reliable, scalable, and secure access-layer infrastructure with robust PoE capabilities and future-ready uplinks. This device is an excellent choice for:

• Enterprise Access Layer: Ideal for medium to large enterprises requiring high-density Gigabit Ethernet with PoE+ to power devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras. Supports robust network access and device connectivity in business-critical environments.
• Converged Networks: Supports voice, video, and data traffic on a single platform with Quality of Service (QoS) and security features optimized for unified communications, collaboration, and seamless application performance.
• Network Aggregation: Suitable as an aggregation switch in branch or smaller networks, providing high-speed uplinks through modular 1G/10G SFP+ ports to core or distribution layers for enhanced scalability and performance.
• Stacked Deployments: Supports Cisco StackWise-480 technology, allowing up to nine switches to be managed as a single entity. This simplifies management, increases redundancy, and boosts overall network resiliency.
• Secure Environments: Integrates advanced security mechanisms such as 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, and dynamic ARP inspection to safeguard network access and protect against threats.
• Power over Ethernet Applications: With a PoE budget of 370W, it efficiently powers multiple IP endpoints without additional power cabling, streamlining infrastructure and reducing deployment costs.
