WS-C3650-24PS-E is a managed Layer 3 access switch with 24 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 PoE+ ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The rack-mount 1U chassis belongs to the Cisco Catalyst 3650 family and includes the IP Services feature set for advanced enterprise routing. Its copper connections serve wired endpoints, while powered ports accommodate devices such as IP phones and wireless access points. The fixed uplink architecture has no removable uplink-card bay, so uplink speed cannot be changed by adding a network module. The discontinued WS-C3650-24TS-E sibling removes endpoint power while retaining the same access-port density and uplink configuration. This 24-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch combines endpoint connectivity and routed access without requiring a separate routing feature-set upgrade for the supplied IP Services configuration.
WS-C3650-24PS-E price for new stock is $1,989.75, a 87.2% saving from the Cisco list price of $15,580.00. WS-C3650-24PS-E refurb price is $162.75. WS-C3650-24PS-E is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

92 Gbps switching capacity provides the switching fabric specification for this non-multigigabit chassis, while 41.66 Mpps forwarding defines its packet-processing rate. OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, and IS-ISv4 support dynamic routed access under IP Services; OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 extend routing to IPv6 networks. PIM-SM, PIM-DM, and SSM provide multicast-routing options, and PBR permits policy-directed forwarding. WS-C3650-24PS-E carries 4 GB of DRAM and 2 GB of flash for system operation and image storage. The address resources accommodate 32000 MAC entries and a total IPv4 scale of 24000 entries covering ARP plus learned routes, rather than learned routes alone. Cisco UADP forwarding silicon supports hardware-based QoS, while Flexible NetFlow provides traffic visibility. Administrators can configure the Catalyst 3650 Series through the CLI and integrate monitoring with Cisco Prime infrastructure. SSH and SNMPv3 require the cryptographic software image. RSTP and MSTP provide spanning-tree control, with stacked members behaving as one spanning-tree node.
WS-C3650-24PS-E is offered new sealed or certified refurbished, with ORM coverage of up to three years extended for new units and up to one year for certified refurbished units; returns are available for 30 days in every condition, with terms applying. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output verification under load on every powered port, firmware verification, and configuration wiping to factory default. Specify condition, quantity, and required accessories on the PO; Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty is subject to eligibility and ends October 31, 2026. ORM Systems accepts enterprise and volume POs, offers Net-30 for government, and provides RMA with advance replacement across UK, EU, US, and MEA.

A refresh of discontinued WS-C3560V2-24PS-E or WS-C3750V2-24PS-E equipment can use their named migration model, WS-C3650-24PS-E. Both older products reached end of sale on May 14, 2016. Treat the purchase as a legacy refresh rather than a new-generation standard, and specify endpoint connectivity and configuration requirements before the PO.
An existing Catalyst 3650 stack needing another member requires the stacking hardware to be included in the purchase specification rather than assumed from the chassis PID. Specify C3650-STACK-KIT= and select STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M=, or STACK-T2-3M= for the physical spacing. Confirm matching IP Services feature sets before issuing the PO.
A routed-access change requiring multiple VLAN interfaces can be staged against the Catalyst 3650 limits of 1000 switched virtual interfaces and 4094 VLAN IDs. Separate the planned interface count from the VLAN inventory, then verify the intended configuration and routing behavior before specifying the staging unit and production quantities on the PO.
10G uplinks to distribution
WS-C3650-24PS-E has fixed 1G uplinks and no uplink-card upgrade path. C9300L-24P-4X-A retains 24 powered access ports and provides four fixed 10G uplinks instead.
Cisco support beyond October 2026
Cisco support for WS-C3650-24PS-E ends October 31, 2026. C9300L-24P-4G-A is the current migration replacement, retaining 24 powered access ports and four 1G uplinks.
Operation without cooling fans
WS-C3650-24PS-E uses three cooling fans, with FAN-T1= as the fan spare. The chassis is not fanless and cannot meet a requirement for operation without fans.

WS-C3650-24PS-E identifies a Catalyst 3650 with 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ access ports, four 1G uplinks, and IP Services. WS-C3650 identifies the family, 24 the access-port count, P the powered-port configuration, S the four-Gigabit-uplink configuration, and E the IP Services feature set. The supplied power configuration uses PWR-C2-640WAC.
WS-C3650-24PS-E supports CLI management through the console, SSH, or Telnet, together with Cisco Prime infrastructure and SNMP-based monitoring. SSH and SNMPv3 require a cryptographic software image. A stack uses a single management IP address and CLI, so management access should be specified for the complete switching entity.
WS-C3650-24PS-E provides a shared 390W PoE budget with its default PWR-C2-640WAC supply, and each powered port supports 30W PoE+. That budget does not permit every port to draw 30W simultaneously. Full-port PoE+ requires PWR-C2-1025WAC or two PWR-C2-640WAC supplies, so endpoint demand must determine the ordered power configuration.
No, WS-C3650-24PS-E has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks and cannot add 10G uplinks through a removable network card. Its uplink architecture is fixed at purchase. Select compatible 1G optics for the intended connection; a faster transceiver does not convert these uplink ports into 10G interfaces.
Catalyst 3650 StackWise-160 stacks nine members with 160 Gbps stacking bandwidth and optional C3650-STACK-KIT= hardware. Cable options are STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M=, and STACK-T2-3M=. Members must use matching feature sets, so an IP Services stack requires compatible IP Services members rather than mixing LAN Base, IP Base, and IP Services configurations.
WS-C3650-24PS-E includes full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, and IS-ISv4 under IP Services, plus OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6 for IPv6 routing. PBR and multicast options including PIM-SM, PIM-DM, and SSM are also supported. The 24000-entry IPv4 total includes ARP plus learned routes and should not be treated as learned routes alone.
No, WS-C3650-24PS-E ships with one PWR-C2-640WAC supply; the second internal power-supply bay supports an optional additional supply. The default configuration is therefore not dual-supply redundant. Specify the additional PWR-C2-640WAC supply when required, and assess the endpoint-power requirement separately from the requirement for redundant power inputs.
WS-C3650-24PS-E includes the IP Services feature set, the advanced enterprise routing tier above LAN Base and IP Base. Feature-set changes use right-to-use activation through the CLI, with paper and electronic license options. IP Services firmware downloads require service entitlement, which must be checked separately from the hardware purchase and activated feature set.
WS-C3650-24PS-E is the named replacement for WS-C3560V2-24PS-E and WS-C3750V2-24PS-E, both discontinued with end-of-sale dates of May 14, 2016. Those older models provide 24 Fast Ethernet PoE ports and two SFP connections. The migration moves access connections to Gigabit Ethernet, but WS-C3650-24PS-E is itself now discontinued.
WS-C3650-24PS-E reached end of sale on October 31, 2021, and its last date of Cisco support is October 31, 2026. Software maintenance ended October 31, 2022. The current migration replacement is C9300L-24P-4G-A; purchasing remaining hardware does not extend the published support deadline.
WS-C3650-24PS-E powers connected endpoints through PoE+, whereas WS-C3650-24TS-E has non-PoE access ports. Both discontinued models provide 24 Gigabit Ethernet access ports and four fixed 1G uplinks. The powered model suits a legacy requirement for switch-supplied endpoint power; the non-PoE configuration serves endpoints with their own power source.
WS-C3650-24PS-E includes IP Services, while WS-C3650-24PS-S includes IP Base on the same powered access and uplink configuration. Both models are discontinued. IP Services supplies full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4, and IS-ISv4; IP Base serves entry-level routed access. Select the legacy configuration according to the routing feature set required.
WS-C3650-24PS-E is discontinued, while C9300L-24P-4G-A is its current migration replacement in the Catalyst 9300L family. Both configurations retain 24 powered access ports and four 1G uplinks. The older model serves an existing legacy hardware requirement; the replacement addresses a purchase requiring the current migration model rather than discontinued equipment.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3650-24PS-E new sealed or certified refurbished, with up to three-year extended coverage for new units and up to one year for refurbished units. Returns are 30 days for either condition; terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty is eligibility-dependent and bounded by the October 31, 2026 last support date.
WS-C3650-24PS-E consumes no more than 65.9W at 100% traffic in the published test without PoE loading. That figure excludes power delivered to endpoints and is not a full-load electrical-sizing figure. The test uses 115V AC at 60 Hz with Energy Efficient Ethernet enabled, so retain those conditions when comparing consumption.
