Catalyst 3850 24T-S Switch Overview
The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3850-24T-S switch from the Cisco 3850 Series is a stackable enterprise-level switch offering Layer 3 routing features, including OSPF stub, EIGRP stub, RIPv1, v2, and PIM stub. This switch is optimized to support the convergence of wired and wireless access, leveraging the power of the Cisco Unified Access Data™ Plane (UADP) Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), which enables uniform policy enforcement, enhanced application visibility, flexibility, and optimization. Built on the resilience of the enhanced Cisco StackWise®-480 technology, it provides a highly reliable network foundation. With 24 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports and a flexible SFP uplink module selection (including C3850-NM-4-1G and C3850-NM-2-10G), the WS-C3850-24T-S supports high-performance connectivity and scalability. It offers 480 Gbps stack bandwidth, 92 Gbps switching capacity, and supports up to 100 APs and 2000 wireless clients per switch or stack. With 4 GB RAM and 2 GB flash memory, this switch ensures efficient performance for enterprise networks. Shop Cisco Switch models like the WS-C3850-24T-S to leverage the benefits of IP Base, SFP connectivity, and Layer 3 Routing features in a stackable design.
