WS-C3650-24PDM-E is a shallow-depth Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ downlinks, two fixed 1G SFP uplinks and two fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks. The full-width 1U chassis carries IP Services for advanced IPv4 and IPv6 routing while connecting phones, wireless access points and separately powered copper devices. The Cisco Catalyst 3650 Mini retains enterprise access features in a cabinet-oriented form factor rather than a desktop layout. The discontinued WS-C3650-24TD-E provides non-PoE access connections instead. Built-in optical interfaces mean the uplink configuration is selected with the base unit, rather than by fitting a removable network card.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E price for new stock is $1,260.00, a 92.2% saving from the Cisco list price of $16,120.00. WS-C3650-24PDM-E refurb price is $714.00. WS-C3650-24PDM-E is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

92 Gbps switching capacity defines the standalone dataplane for access and uplink traffic. 68.45 Mpps forwarding rate sets the packet-processing limit for traffic sizing. 390W of shared PoE allocation requires endpoint demand to be sized against the aggregate budget, rather than assuming maximum delivery on every port. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 support full unicast routing; OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 extend routing to IPv6. PIM-SM, PIM-DM and SSM provide IP multicast routing. MAC learning accommodates 32000 entries, while the 24000-entry IPv4 total includes ARP and learned routes. WS-C3650-24PDM-E has 4 GB DRAM and 2 GB flash for control processes and software storage. Management combines console and remote CLI access with SNMP monitoring; DHCP snooping, dynamic ARP inspection and IP source guard support access security. 76.2W under 100%-traffic testing excludes PoE loads, so powered-device consumption must be considered separately when planning mains circuits. Cisco UPOE is not available on this Mini configuration.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3650-24PDM-E new sealed or certified refurbished; specify condition, quantity and required accessories on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output under load on every powered port and optics bay recognition; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. New units carry up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty, and certified refurbished units carry up to 1 year, with 30-day returns in either condition; terms apply. Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime warranty applies to the original owner and service ends May 31, 2028; for enterprise and volume orders, POs are accepted, government customers receive Net-30 terms, and RMA with advance replacement is available.

In a university campus environment, IT teams deploy the WS-C3650-24PDM-E Catalyst 3650 24-Port Mini to power Wi-Fi 6 access points and IP security cameras over PoE+ while leveraging 2×10G uplinks for seamless backhaul. The integrated IP Services license enables advanced QoS and Layer-3 segmentation to prioritize voice and video traffic. Outcome: simplified wiring, guaranteed uptime for critical services, and scalable network growth with unified management via Cisco DNA Center.
A multi-location retail chain uses the WS-C3650-24PDM-E to aggregate LAN and WAN links in each branch, leveraging its IP Services feature set for OSPF/BGP dynamic routing across 2×1G and 2×10G uplinks. Redundant uplinks and Cisco StackWise-160 stacking deliver sub-second failover and centralized policy enforcement. Benefit: improved network resilience, consistent security posture, and reduced IT overhead through automated link management and live traffic analytics.
In a small data center, the Catalyst 3650 24-Port Mini (WS-C3650-24PDM-E) serves as a top-of-rack switch connecting virtualization hosts and SAN/NAS appliances. Dual 10G uplinks aggregate east-west traffic while IP Services enable VXLAN routing for multi-tenant segmentation. Outcome: optimized bandwidth for VM migrations, granular traffic control with Cisco TrustSec, and future-proof expansion with modular uplink flexibility.
When a branch rollout places equipment in an unheated shallow cabinet, startup conditions need separate review from the normal operating range. The Catalyst 3650 Mini requires at least 0°C ambient temperature for a cold start. Check cabinet startup temperature, connector clearance and installation conditions before issuing the hardware PO.
When an access refresh moves gateway interfaces onto the switch, the required interface count becomes a purchase constraint. The Catalyst 3650 supports 1000 switched virtual interfaces; compare that limit with planned gateways and reserved segments. Specify the gateway inventory and required routing features before releasing the PO.
When a distributed operations team needs regional spare coverage, align spare quantities with the locations receiving replacements. ORM Systems supports regional stock and RMA in the UK, EU, US and MEA. Specify delivery region, spare allocation and required hardware condition on the PO before scheduling replacement shipments.
25G uplinks to distribution
WS-C3650-24PDM-E has fixed uplinks limited to 10G. The current replacement, C9300LM-24U-4Y-A, provides four 25G uplinks; upgrade the switch rather than selecting an uplink card.
Thirty watts on every port
The shared 390W budget cannot cover 24 ports drawing 30W each. The fixed internal supply does not allow adding a second internal PSU to expand the PoE allocation.
Internal redundant power supply modules
WS-C3650-24PDM-E has a fixed internal supply and no second internal bay. The external PWR-RPS2300 redundancy option is discontinued, with no replacement available.

WS-C3650-24PDM-E identifies a Catalyst 3650 Mini with 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and IP Services. WS-C3650 names the family; 24 is the access-port count; P indicates PoE+; D identifies the two-10G uplink configuration; M denotes Mini hardware with fixed power; E selects IP Services.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E provides a shared 390W PoE budget with a 30W maximum per powered port. The allocation does not support every access port drawing 30W simultaneously; the Mini configuration supports 12 ports at full PoE+ power. Record each endpoint's required allocation before specifying powered-device quantities.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E has two 1G SFP uplinks and two 10G SFP+ uplinks built into the chassis, rather than a removable network module. The SFP+ interfaces also support 1G operation. Adding an uplink card cannot provide 25G connectivity; specify link speed and optical requirements with the order.
The Catalyst 3650 Mini supports StackWise-160 stacks of nine members with 160 Gbps stack bandwidth. Stack hardware uses C3650-STACK-KIT=; cable choices are STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= and STACK-T2-3M=. Mini and standard 3650 members can mix, but member license levels must match before the switches join the stack.
Yes, WS-C3650-24PDM-E supports full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 under IP Services, plus OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 for IPv6. PIM-SM, PIM-DM and SSM support multicast routing. The 24000-entry IPv4 total includes ARP and learned routes, so size route and adjacency requirements together rather than treating the total as learned routes alone.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E is managed through a web UI, the CLI over console, SSH or Telnet, and SNMP; Cisco Prime Infrastructure provides centralized management. Under Cisco IOS XE Fuji 16.8.x, the web UI cannot install, upgrade or downgrade device software. Specify administrative access and required management tooling separately from hardware condition.
No, WS-C3650-24PDM-E ships with a fixed 640W AC supply, so a second internal PSU cannot be installed. External redundancy uses PWR-RPS2300, which is discontinued without a replacement. Specify the base unit's power arrangement explicitly rather than adding a modular spare supply to the PO.
The Catalyst 3650 Mini is a full-width 1U rack-mount switch, measuring 44 mm high, 445 mm wide and 296 mm deep. The shallow chassis is not a desktop-size appliance. Check rear connector access, cable bend clearance and the cabinet's usable depth before specifying the installation.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E uses permanent IP Services licensing without an expiration date. Separate Cisco DNA Essentials or Cisco DNA Advantage add-ons use three-, five- or seven-year terms, with three years the minimum. Cisco DNA Advantage requires IP Base or IP Services. Specify base entitlement separately from term entitlement and assign subscriptions to the buyer's Smart Account.
Yes, WS-C3650-24PDM-E reached end of sale on May 31, 2023, and Cisco's last date of support is May 31, 2028. Software maintenance and new service attachment ended May 30, 2024. Support through the final cutoff depends on eligible warranty or active service entitlement; purchasing hardware alone does not establish service coverage.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E supplies PoE+ on its access ports, whereas WS-C3650-24TD-E has non-PoE access ports. Both support Gigabit endpoint connections, but the data-only model cannot provide endpoint power. WS-C3650-24TD-E is discontinued; its configuration matches independently powered devices, while the PoE+ Mini matches installed-base replacement orders for PoE-fed endpoints.
WS-C3650-24PDM-E carries IP Services, while WS-C3650-24PDM-S carries IP Base. Full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 require IP Services; IP Base includes routed-access OSPF and EIGRP Stub. Both Mini variants are discontinued. The E configuration matches full-routing requirements, while the S configuration matches existing IP Base spare requirements.
C9300LM-24U-4Y-A has four 25G uplinks, whereas WS-C3650-24PDM-E has two 10G and two 1G uplinks. C9300LM-24U-4Y-A is the current replacement; WS-C3650-24PDM-E is discontinued. An installed-base spare can retain the original uplink arrangement, while a new 25G distribution connection requires the replacement model rather than another 3650 Mini.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3650-24PDM-E new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for refurbished units. Returns are available for 30 days in either condition; terms apply. Cisco's enhanced limited lifetime warranty applies to the original owner, with service ending May 31, 2028.
