Cisco Catalyst 3650 48-Port Full PoE 2x10G Uplink | LAN Base — CON-L2NBD-ASR1000E

Keep access-layer traffic moving with a Cisco Catalyst 3650 configuration built for high-density wired environments. With 48 full PoE ports and 2 x 10G uplinks, it is suited for deployments that need to power endpoint devices while preserving uplink headroom for aggregation and upstream connectivity. LAN Base positioning makes this model a fit for organizations standardizing on straightforward Layer 2 access requirements without paying for features they will not use. That matters in enterprise refresh cycles, where consistency, port density, and power delivery often drive the purchase decision more than headline throughput alone. This configuration is a practical choice for offices, campus edge closets, and distributed access layers that need dependable connectivity for phones, access points, cameras, and other PoE-powered devices. The 10G uplinks help reduce bottlenecks at the edge, while the 48-port layout supports larger user and device counts from a single switch. For teams comparing options, the value is in the balance: enough port density to simplify cabling and rack planning, enough uplink capacity to support busy access segments, and a Cisco platform familiar to infrastructure teams that want predictable operations across the network edge.
