Cisco WS-C3750X-48PF-S 48x RJ-45 1Gb Power over Ethernet Switch

The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3750X-48PF-S is a powerful, enterprise-grade Layer 3 switch designed for scalable, reliable, and high-performance network deployments. It offers 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports, making it ideal for connecting devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras that require power over Ethernet. This switch supports Cisco’s StackWise+ technology, allowing up to 9 switches to be stacked and managed as a single unit, providing increased bandwidth and redundancy. With a switching capacity of 160 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 101.2 million packets per second, it delivers robust performance for demanding network environments. The WS-C3750X-48PF-S includes one network module slot compatible with a range of optional uplink modules, including 1G SFP, 10G SFP+, and 10GBase-T interfaces, giving flexibility for network expansion and high-speed uplinks. Designed with power redundancy and flexible airflow configurations, this switch is well-suited for mid-to-large campus networks, enterprise LAN access layers, VoIP and video deployments, and environments requiring advanced Layer 3 routing and fault tolerance. This device is an excellent choice for:

• Enterprise LAN Access Layer: Ideal for providing high-density Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports that power and connect a large number of endpoints such as IP phones, wireless access points, IP surveillance cameras, and other PoE-enabled devices, helping streamline network infrastructure and reduce the need for additional power cabling.
• Mid-Size to Large Campus Networks: Enables scalable network expansion through Cisco StackWise+ technology, allowing up to 9 switches to operate as a single logical unit with high bandwidth stacking interconnects, simplifying network management and improving redundancy and load balancing across the campus.
• VoIP and IP Surveillance Deployments: Supports robust Quality of Service (QoS) and provides a generous PoE power budget to guarantee the consistent delivery of voice and video traffic, minimizing latency and jitter while powering critical devices such as IP phones and surveillance cameras.
• Redundant and Fault-Tolerant Network Environments: Supports dual, hot-swappable power supplies and configurable fan airflow to maintain uptime and adapt cooling to varying rack environments, ensuring continuous network availability even during power or hardware failures.
• Advanced Layer 3 Routing: Provides integrated IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols, including OSPF, EIGRP, and RIP, enabling efficient inter-VLAN routing and dynamic routing capabilities within enterprise networks for improved traffic management and segmentation.
• High-Speed and Flexible Uplink Options: Compatible with a variety of uplink modules supporting 1G SFP, 10G SFP+, and 10GBase-T interfaces, allowing seamless integration with aggregation switches, data center uplinks, or service provider networks, ensuring future-proof connectivity.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE+) for High Power Devices: Delivers up to 30W per port, enabling support for power-hungry devices like pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras, video phones, and wireless access points with multiple radios without the need for external power adapters.
• Energy-Efficient Networking: Includes Cisco EnergyWise technology to optimize power consumption dynamically across ports and components, reducing operational costs while maintaining network performance.
