The Cisco® Catalyst® 3650 Series is the next generation of enterprise-class standalone and stackable access-layer switches that provide the foundation for full convergence between wired and wireless on a single platform.

The 3650 Series is built on the advanced Cisco StackWise®-160, and takes advantage of the new Cisco Unified Access™ Data Plane (UADP) application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC). This switch can enable uniform wired-wireless policy enforcement, application visibility, flexibility, application optimization, and superior resiliency.

The 3650 Series switches support full IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet (Cisco UPOE®) on the Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series multigigabit switches, and offer modular and field-replaceable redundant fans and power supplies.

• Integrated wireless controller capability with up to 40G of wireless capacity per switch (48-port models)
• Support for up to 50 access points and 1000 wireless clients on each switching entity
• 24 and 48 10/100/1000 data and PoE+ models with energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE) supported ports
• Five fixed-uplink models with various Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet port configurations
• Optional Cisco StackWise-160 technology providing 160 Gbps of stack throughput
• Dual redundant, modular power supplies and three modular fans for redundancy
• Full IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) with 30W power on all ports in 1 rack unit form factor
• IEEE 802.3bz (2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T) support for existing cabling infrastructure
