Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-Port Full PoE IP Base | Managed PoE Switch — CON-C14OF-6508AC2

Deliver powered access where it matters most: at the edge. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 48 Port Full PoE IP Base is designed for enterprise environments that need a high-density switch to connect and power distributed devices from a single platform. It is a practical fit for wiring closets that support voice, wireless, and security infrastructure. With 48 full PoE ports, this model helps reduce the complexity of deploying endpoint hardware across floors, branches, and campus buildings. Network teams can standardize on one access switch for powered devices instead of managing a mix of injectors, midspans, and lower-density switches. That translates into cleaner racks, simpler moves and adds, and more predictable endpoint placement. The IP Base designation makes this configuration a strong choice for organizations that want Cisco access-layer control and PoE density without overextending into more complex switching tiers. It is well suited to IT teams that need dependable day-to-day operation, consistent endpoint power, and a platform that fits neatly into established Cisco network environments.
