Cisco Catalyst 3650 48-Port Full PoE, 2x10G Uplink | LAN Base — CON-L2NBD-DN3HWAPL

Support dense edge environments with a switch built to power more devices and move traffic upstream with less friction. Cisco Catalyst 3650 48 Port Full PoE with 2x10G uplinks and LAN Base is aimed at campus access layers where phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other powered endpoints must be connected at scale. The 48-port full PoE design gives infrastructure teams the port density needed for larger closets and consolidation projects. The 2x10G uplink design is a practical advantage in networks where access traffic is no longer trivial. It helps preserve headroom between the access layer and distribution, especially when many PoE endpoints are active at once. For teams replacing older access switches, this combination can reduce bottlenecks without forcing a redesign of the entire closet. LAN Base keeps the feature set focused on core access switching, which is useful when procurement needs a clear fit between capability and budget. Cisco’s enterprise switching pedigree also matters in long-lived infrastructure: consistent management, familiar operational workflows, and a platform that fits standard campus refresh planning. Compared with lower-tier switches, this model earns its place by delivering more powered ports and stronger uplink capacity in a single access-layer chassis. Ideal For Powering a large floor of VoIP phones and wireless access points Aggregating PoE cameras and badge readers in a campus closet Replacing older access switches with higher port density and 10G uplinks Supporting branch or campus refresh projects that need more powered ports Why This Product 1 48 PoE ports for higher endpoint density than 24-port models 2 2x10G uplinks for stronger access-to-distribution throughput 3 LAN Base for focused access-layer feature scope 4 Cisco enterprise platform for standardized campus deployments
