L-C3650-48-L-S Use Case
Branch Office Inter-VLAN Routing with Dynamic Protocols
A global retail chain deploys Cisco Catalyst 3650-48-L switches at 200+ branch sites. On LAN Base, each VLAN required manual static routes, causing configuration delays and errors. Applying the L-C3650-48-L-S-C3650-48 LAN Base to IP Base electronic RTU license unlocks OSPF and EIGRP, automating inter-VLAN routing with HQ. Outcome: 70% fewer configuration errors, 50% faster service rollouts and resilient failover with dynamic path control.
Campus Data Center Leaf Upgrade for Scalable East-West Traffic
A large university’s virtualized cluster runs on Catalyst 3650-48-L leaf switches. LAN Base restricts Layer 3 features and multicast. By installing the IP Base RTU license, the campus enables BGP EVPN, PIM-SM and VRF-Lite segmentation without hardware changes. Outcome: sub-millisecond east–west latency, 2× aggregate throughput, simplified multi-tenant segmentation and zero-touch license activation via electronic RTU.
Unified Communications & Video Collaboration with Advanced QoS
A financial services firm operates Cisco IP telephony and Zoom video across 30 offices on Catalyst 3650-48-L. LAN Base lacks granular QoS policies and multicast routing, resulting in jitter and packet loss. Upgrading to IP Base with the L-C3650-48-L-S-C3650-48 electronic RTU license unlocks MQC QoS, PIM-SM multicasting and HSRP for voice/video traffic. Outcome: 99.99% VoIP SLA compliance, 40% reduction in packet loss, centralized policy enforcement and automated license provisioning.
