Cisco Catalyst 3850 24 Port GE SFP IP Services | Layer 3 Enterprise — CON-DSNTP-2348PQFA

Keep access layers stable as traffic grows. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 24 Port GE SFP IP Services is designed for enterprise environments that need fiber-based connectivity, routed services, and predictable operations at the edge. With 24 GE SFP ports, it fits distribution and access designs that depend on clean uplinks, segmented traffic, and consistent policy enforcement. IP Services support advanced Layer 3 capabilities for networks that need more than basic switching. That makes this platform a strong fit for campus cores, aggregation layers, and high-availability access deployments where routing control, VLAN segmentation, and operational visibility matter. Cisco Catalyst 3850 architecture is built for organizations standardizing on a managed switching platform with long-term infrastructure value. For teams comparing against lower-tier switches, this model stands out when fiber density, routed services, and Cisco ecosystem alignment are part of the requirement. It is a practical choice for environments that need to protect performance today while keeping the network ready for expansion. Ideal For Campus access layer with fiber uplinks Aggregation switch for routed enterprise networks Distribution layer in segmented office environments Managed edge switch for Cisco-standardized infrastructure Why This Product 1 More suitable than basic access switches when routed services are required 2 Better fit than copper-only models for fiber-centric deployments 3 Designed for enterprise campus layers that need Layer 3 control 4 Supports Cisco-standardized operations for long-term network consistency
