C3850-NM-4-10G Use Case
Campus Distribution Aggregation for High-Bandwidth Applications
In a large enterprise campus network supporting HD video conferencing, VoIP and large file transfers, the Cisco Catalyst 3850 4 x 10GE Network Module (C3850-NM-4-10G) aggregates multiple 1 GbE access switches onto a high-speed backbone. This deployment reduces congestion, delivers sub-millisecond latency for real-time services and consolidates management under Cisco DNA Center for simplified provisioning and troubleshooting.
Data Center Access-to-Core Uplink for Virtualized Workloads
A mid-size data center running VMware and containerized applications uses the C3850-NM-4-10G module to provide four dedicated 10 GbE uplinks between access and core layers. By offloading north-south traffic onto high-capacity links, organizations accelerate live VM migration, achieve up to 40% higher throughput and maintain consistent performance under variable loads.
Wireless and IoT Edge Backhaul with Enhanced Segmentation
In a distributed healthcare environment with Wi-Fi 6 access points and IoT medical sensors, the Cisco Catalyst 3850 4 x 10GE Network Module dedicates 10 GbE ports for wireless backhaul and IoT gateways. This architecture enforces VRF-based segmentation, improves packet forwarding rates by over 30% and ensures compliance with stringent HIPAA security standards.
