Maintain wired access, power delivery, and policy control from a single enterprise switch platform. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 48 Port Full PoE IP Base is designed for dense edge deployments where phones, access points, cameras, and other powered devices must stay online without adding separate power infrastructure. With 48 PoE ports, this model supports high-density access-layer builds that need both connectivity and power at the edge. IP Base capabilities align with common enterprise routing and segmentation requirements, giving infrastructure teams a practical foundation for campus closets and branch aggregation points. The Catalyst 3850 family is known for stacking-oriented campus design, making it a strong fit when you want operational consistency across multiple switches rather than isolated standalone units.
