Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-Port Full PoE Switch | Enterprise, Layer 3 — CON-L1NBD-WSCF16FX

Keep wired access, voice, and wireless endpoints powered and reachable on a single enterprise switch built for demanding campus networks. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 48 Port Full PoE IP Services model is designed for access-layer consolidation, giving IT teams a platform that can support high device density while maintaining the control expected in larger routed environments. IP Services licensing positions this switch for networks that need more than basic Layer 2 forwarding. It is a fit for environments where routing, segmentation, and policy consistency matter across closets, floors, and distributed workspaces. Full PoE support helps reduce the need for separate power injectors and simplifies endpoint deployment for phones, access points, cameras, and other powered devices. For organizations standardizing on Cisco switching, the Catalyst 3850 family offers a familiar operational model and a strong fit for enterprise refresh cycles. It is the kind of access switch chosen when the cost of downtime, re-cabling, or underpowered edge ports is higher than the premium paid for a more capable platform.
