Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-Port Full PoE IP Base Support | Exchange — CON-SSC4P-2248EFAB

Maintain service continuity on a Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-port Full PoE IP Base switch with depot exchange support and a defined replacement path. This maintenance entitlement is structured for environments that need predictable service handling without overcommitting to a long support term. The value is in the service model: depot-based exchange, replacement coverage, and a 10-business-day response target. For procurement and operations teams, that means a clear support process for a switch that still carries meaningful access-layer workload and power delivery requirements. It is a practical fit when the goal is to keep the platform in service while controlling maintenance spend. This type of coverage is especially useful for transitional deployments, spare strategy planning, or environments where the switch remains important but is not the centerpiece of the network. It gives teams a vendor-defined path for handling failures and replacements, helping reduce uncertainty around repair logistics and service ownerJTFp.
