Cisco Catalyst 3650 24-Port Data 4x1G Uplink IP Base | Layer 3 Switch — CON-C1NBF-WSC388PS

Keep critical access traffic moving with a switch designed for enterprise campus networks that need predictable performance and clean uplink capacity. The Cisco Catalyst 3650 24 Port Data 4x1G Uplink IP Base provides 24 data ports for endpoint connectivity and 4 x 1G uplinks for aggregation into the distribution layer. IP Base licensing supports the routing and management requirements commonly expected in controlled enterprise deployments, while the Catalyst 3650 family is known for fitting into access-layer designs where stability matters more than feature sprawl. That makes this model a practical choice for organizations standardizing on Cisco switching and looking for a platform that can anchor user access, printers, phones, and other wired devices. For teams comparing against lower-tier switches, the value here is in the enterprise-grade access design and the flexibility of multiple gigabit uplinks. It is a strong fit when you need a switch that can sit in a closet, support day-to-day operations, and integrate cleanly into a larger Cisco environment without overbuying features you will not use.
