Cisco Catalyst 3650 48-Port Full PoE 2x10G Uplink | Enterprise Switch — CON-L2NBD-ASR100GK

Build access layers that can keep pace with dense device counts and growing bandwidth demand. The Cisco Catalyst 3650 with 48 full PoE ports and 2 x 10G uplinks is designed for enterprise networks that need to power phones, access points, cameras, and other edge devices while preserving uplink capacity for aggregation and upstream traffic. This is the kind of switch you choose when the access layer is no longer a simple connectivity tier. Full PoE across 48 ports supports large endpoint populations without forcing tradeoffs between power delivery and port availability. The dual 10G uplinks add the headroom needed for modern campus and branch designs, especially where traffic patterns are more demanding than a basic gigabit edge can comfortably absorb. For IT teams, the appeal is straightforward: a mature Catalyst platform, high port density, and uplink capacity that helps avoid bottlenecks at the edge. It is a strong fit for organizations standardizing on Cisco switching and looking for a dependable access switch that can support current workloads without feeling undersized.
