The Cisco Catalyst 3650 WS-C3650-48FQM-S delivers high-performance packet forwarding at 130.95 Mpps across a 176 Gbps switching fabric, making it engineered for environments where consistent, predictable throughput is non-negotiable. This managed Layer 3 switch combines enterprise-class routing capabilities with the flexibility of multigigabit downlink ports, positioning it as the backbone infrastructure choice for network engineers and IT procurement teams planning scalable, future-ready campus deployments.

The WS-C3650-48FQM-S provides 48 multigigabit RJ-45 downlink ports supporting 100M/1G/2.5G speeds with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ delivery, backed by a 1100W power budget when dual power supplies are installed. Four 1G SFP uplink ports enable flexible connectivity to core infrastructure, while integrated Cisco StackWise-160 technology permits up to 9 switches to operate as a single logical unit across a dedicated 160 Gbps stacking backbone. The platform runs Cisco IOS XE IP Base feature set and is equipped with 4 GB DRAM and 2 GB flash memory to handle MAC address tables of 32,000 entries, 24,000 IPv4 routing entries, and 12,000 IPv6 routing entries—ensuring robust support for complex, multi-tenant environments.
