Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-Port Full PoE IP Base | Layer 3, Rack Mount — CON-C1NOF-SLASR1AK

Maintain uptime at the edge with a switch designed for dense PoE access deployments. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 48 Port Full PoE IP Base brings 48 powered Ethernet ports to support phones, access points, cameras, and other critical endpoints from a single access switch. Cisco IP Base software gives you the routing and segmentation tools needed for enterprise campus networks without moving into a more complex feature tier. This model fits environments where power, port density, and operational consistency matter more than commodity pricing. Full PoE support reduces the need for local power adapters and simplifies closet design, while the Catalyst 3850 family is built for managed access switching in structured enterprise networks. It is a practical choice for teams standardizing on Cisco infrastructure and looking for a switch that can anchor wired access with predictable behavior. For procurement teams, the value is clear: fewer power dependencies at the edge, cleaner deployment planning, and a platform aligned with long-term campus operations. For network teams, it provides the control expected from a managed Cisco access switch in a form factor built for rack-based installation.
