WS-C3650-48PS-S is a managed Layer 3 enterprise access switch with 48 fixed 10/100/1000 PoE+ downlink ports and four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The 1U Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series platform runs IP Base and supports standalone operation or optional StackWise-160 stacking for wiring closets that combine wired access, access point power and branch services. This Catalyst 3650 switch fits refresh projects that still need Cisco IOS XE behavior, fixed Gigabit fiber uplinks and a 48-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch with fixed SFP uplinks. WS-C3650-48TS-S keeps the same 48-port and 4x1G uplink shape but drops PoE and ships with a 250WAC supply.
WS-C3650-48PS-S price for new stock is $2,619.75. WS-C3650-48PS-S refurb price is $204.75. WS-C3650-48PS-S is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

176 Gbps switching capacity supports non-multigigabit 48-port forwarding, with 77.37 Mpps forwarding on 4x1G uplink models. 390W of available PoE power is supplied by PWR-C2-640WAC, while the published standalone draw reaches 99.5W at full traffic with no PoE loading. IP Base supports static routing, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, EIGRP Stub, OSPF for routed access, PBR and VRF-Lite; full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 require the IP Services feature set. WS-C3650-48PS-S carries 32000 MAC addresses, 24000 IPv4 routes, 4 GB DRAM, 2 GB flash, 4094 VLAN IDs and 1000 SVIs. Web-based Configuration Wizard, Device Manager, Cisco IOS CLI over console or Telnet, and Cisco Prime Infrastructure provide documented management paths, with SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 support.

| Key Specs | Key Spec Values |
|---|---|
Operating System | Cisco IOS XE |
License Tier | IP Base |
Port Configuration | 48 x 1G PoE+, 4 x 1G SFP |
PoE Budget | 390W |
Stacking | StackWise-160, 9 members |
Lifecycle Status | End of support 31 October 2026 |
A site replacing WS-C3560V2-48PS-S or WS-C3750V2-48PS-S can keep a 48-port access design while moving to a Catalyst 3650 IP Base model. The refresh keeps four SFP uplinks and adds StackWise-160 capability, so specify stack hardware and transceiver needs before the PO.
A closet with phones, access points and cameras should be sized against the 390W shared PoE budget rather than the 48-port count alone. Because PoE+ can request 30W per port, collect endpoint draw and reserve policy requirements before ordering the switch.
A campus extending an existing Catalyst 3650 access stack can add a same-family member when the stack stays within nine StackWise-160 switches. Confirm C3650-STACK-KIT= availability and choose STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M= before the order is released.
10G uplinks to distribution
Four fixed SFP uplinks operate at 1G on this model. Specify C9300L-48P-4X-A for a current 48-port PoE replacement with four 10G uplinks.
Full PoE+ across 48 ports
The available PoE budget is 390W, below 48 ports at 30W each. Specify C9300L-48PF-4G-A when the refresh requires a current full-PoE 4x1G model.
Cisco service beyond 2026
Cisco service for the Catalyst 3650 ends on 31 October 2026. Specify C9300L-48P-4G-A when the purchase requires the named current replacement.

WS-C3650-48PS-S is a Cisco Catalyst 3650 standalone switch with optional stacking, 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet PoE+ ports, four 1G uplinks and IP Base. The 48PS portion identifies the 48-port PoE+ 4x1G configuration, while the S suffix identifies IP Base.
WS-C3650-48PS-S is managed through web-based Configuration Wizard, Device Manager, Cisco IOS CLI over the console or Telnet, and Cisco Prime Infrastructure. The hardware also has a 10/100/1000 Ethernet management port, an RJ-45 console port and a USB mini-Type B console port.
WS-C3650-48PS-S is end of sale, with Cisco support ending on 31 October 2026. The hardware end-of-sale date was 31 October 2021, last ship date was 30 January 2022, and the named replacement is C9300L-48P-4G-A.
ORM offers WS-C3650-48PS-S new sealed or certified refurbished, with new units eligible for up to a 3-year extended warranty and certified refurbished units eligible for up to 1 year. Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage is bounded by Cisco service ending 31 October 2026, and returns are 30 days.
WS-C3650-48PS-S ships with IP Base, the entry-level enterprise Layer 3 feature set for Catalyst 3650. Documented 48-port upgrade options from IP Base to IP Services are C3650-48-S-E as a paper RTU license and L-C3650-48-S-E as an electronic RTU license.
WS-C3650-48PS-S replaced WS-C3560V2-48PS-S and WS-C3750V2-48PS-S in published migration listings. Both older models were described as 48-port 10/100 PoE models with SFP uplinks and Standard Image, while the Catalyst 3650 replacement moved to 10/100/1000 PoE+ access ports.
WS-C3650-48PS-S has 48 PoE+ downlink ports and a 390W available PoE budget with PWR-C2-640WAC. PoE+ can provide up to 30W per port, so the budget is shared and does not equal 30W simultaneously across all 48 ports.
The Catalyst 3650 48-port PoE+ 4x1G model has four fixed 1G SFP uplinks. The uplink slots support 1-Gigabit SFP modules on this model; 10G SFP+ uplinks belong to other Catalyst 3650 uplink variants, not WS-C3650-48PS-S.
WS-C3650-48PS-S supports StackWise-160 stacking with up to nine Catalyst 3650 members. Physical stacking requires C3650-STACK-KIT= and a StackWise-160 cable such as STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M=, depending on rack spacing.
WS-C3650-48PS-S with IP Base supports static routing, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, EIGRP Stub and OSPF for routed access. PBR and VRF-Lite are also IP Base features, while full OSPF, EIGRP, BGPv4 and IS-ISv4 require IP Services.
WS-C3650-48PS-S provides 48 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports with a 640WAC supply, while WS-C3650-48TS-S provides 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports with a 250WAC supply. Choose WS-C3650-48PS-S for powered endpoints and WS-C3650-48TS-S for data-only access.
WS-C3650-48PS-E ships with the IP Services feature set, while WS-C3650-48PS-S ships with IP Base. Both share the 48-port PoE+ 4x1G uplink hardware shape, so WS-C3650-48PS-E fits advanced Layer 3 feature needs and WS-C3650-48PS-S fits IP Base standardization.
C9300L-48P-4G-A is the named replacement for WS-C3650-48PS-S and is described as a Catalyst 9300L 48-port PoE model with Network Advantage and 4x1G uplinks. Use C9300L-48P-4G-A for the current platform path and WS-C3650-48PS-S for like-for-like Catalyst 3650 sparing.
