Cisco Catalyst 3850 48-Port PoE IP Base | Layer 3, Enterprise Switch — CON-NCFT-FPK9FKSM

Keep critical users and devices connected at the access layer with the Cisco Catalyst 3850 48 Port PoE IP Base. This platform is designed for enterprise networks that need powered Ethernet at scale, stable switching performance, and Cisco’s IP Base feature set for core access-layer services. With 48 PoE ports, it can support IP phones, access points, cameras, and other powered endpoints from a single switch, reducing cabling complexity and simplifying closet design. The Catalyst 3850 family is built for organizations that expect more from an access switch than basic forwarding. It fits environments where uptime, policy consistency, and operational control matter, including campus networks, branch offices, and distributed enterprise sites. IP Base provides the routing and management foundation needed for common access deployments without moving into unnecessary complexity. For teams standardizing on Cisco infrastructure, this model offers a familiar operational model and a practical path for replacing aging access hardware. It is a strong fit when you need PoE density, enterprise switching features, and a platform that aligns with long-term network standards rather than short-term commodity pricing.
