Fixed 1G Access for Campus Wiring Closets

WS-C3650-48TS-S is a managed Cisco Catalyst 3650 fixed-uplink access switch for 48 10/100/1000 copper data drops and four 1G SFP uplinks. The IP Base 4x1G uplink model runs Cisco IOS XE as a Layer 3 enterprise access platform, with routed access services for wiring closets that need Gigabit endpoints and fiber handoffs without endpoint power. Non-PoE downlinks keep the hardware focused on data ports, while the 1U Catalyst 3650 Series chassis fits standard rack rows and supports optional StackWise-160 stacking. For the same port count with powered endpoints, WS-C3650-48PS-S changes the access ports to PoE+ and ships with a PWR-C2-640WAC supply instead of PWR-C2-250WAC.

WS-C3650-48TS-S price for new stock is $6,948.90, a 52% saving from the Cisco list price of $14,463.00. WS-C3650-48TS-S refurb price is $115.50. WS-C3650-48TS-S is in stock and available for next-day dispatch. (terms applied)

Technical Details

176 Gbps switching capacity supports the 48-port non-multigigabit hardware class, and 77.37 Mpps forwarding applies to the 4x1G uplink model. Static, RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, EIGRP Stub and OSPF for routed access are available under IP Base; full EIGRP, BGPv4, IS-ISv4 and PIM require IP Services. WS-C3650-48TS-S carries 4 GB DRAM, 2 GB flash, a 32000-entry MAC table, 24000 IPv4 routes, 1000 SVIs and 4094 VLAN IDs. Cisco IOS XE management uses the console CLI, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Telnet, SSH and SNMPv3, with UADP ASIC forwarding and Flexible NetFlow visibility across wired plus wireless traffic. The PWR-C2-250WAC input range is 100-240VAC at 50-60 Hz, and the second supply bay supports redundancy rather than endpoint power output.

Ordering

ORM can source regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US and MEA for volume buys.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Lifecycle cutoff

Cisco end-of-sale has passed; Cisco service remains available only through 31 October 2026 because hardware support, vulnerability support and warranty service all terminate at the last date of support.

Permanent RTU licensing

IP Base is the included permanent feature set; C3650-48-S-E paper RTU and L-C3650-48-S-E electronic RTU upgrade a 48-port IP Base unit to IP Services.

Stack license match

StackWise-160 stacks require matching license levels and the same 3650 platform; order C3650-STACK-KIT= with STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M= cables when building the stack.

Second supply bay

A second supply is not bundled; order PWR-C2-250WAC= or PWR-C2-640WDC= when power redundancy is required, and keep the installed supply in bay 1.

WS-C3650-48TS-S Use Case

Scalable Campus Access Deployment for Mid-Size Enterprises

In a 500-employee corporate campus, IT architects deploy a stack of WS-C3650-48TS-S switches at the building’s access layer, supporting 48 desktop and IP-phone ports plus four 1 Gbps uplinks to the distribution core. Leveraging IP Base routing, QoS and software-defined segmentation, the solution delivers predictable performance for VoIP, video conferencing and data services. Outcome: simplified network management, seamless firmware upgrades via Cisco StackWise, and 30 % faster desktop onboarding—with high availability and capacity headroom for future growth.

Secure, Cost-Efficient Branch Office Aggregation for Retail Chains

A national retail chain standardizes on the WS-C3650-48TS-S at each 2,000 sq ft branch to aggregate PoE midspan devices, POS terminals and CCTV cameras across 48 data ports. Four dedicated 1 Gbps uplinks using OSPF from the IP Base license ensure resilient WAN connectivity to headquarters. Built-in access-control lists and segmentation isolate sensitive payment traffic from guest Wi-Fi. Outcome: uniform security policies across 100+ locations, 25 % reduction in on-site hardware costs, and rapid rollback capabilities to minimize downtime during maintenance.

High-Density Wireless AP Backhaul for University Stadiums

In a 30,000-seat university sports stadium, network engineers deploy multiple WS-C3650-48TS-S switches in distributed closets to aggregate up to 48 wireless access points per switch. Four 1 Gbps uplinks are configured in EtherChannel to the data center core, providing redundant, high-throughput paths. IP Base features enable VRF-lite segmentation of guest, faculty and IoT traffic and advanced QoS for live video streaming. Outcome: reliable coverage for 20,000 concurrent users, zero packet loss during peak events and centralized, policy-driven management via Cisco DNA Center.

Best For

Fast Ethernet Refresh

A wiring closet standardizing from WS-C3560V2-48TS-S or WS-C3750V2-48TS-S can keep a 48-drop data layout while moving uplinks to four 1G SFP cages. Confirm fiber optics, rack power for PWR-C2-250WAC and any separate endpoint-power plan before the PO.

Branch Wireless Edge

A branch design using mobility controller mode can terminate access point traffic and manage up to 25 access points per switch or stack. Specify AP licensing with LIC-CTIOS-1A or L-LIC-CTIOS-1A when mobility controller operation is required before staging begins in the branch.

Stack Expansion

An existing IP Base 3650 stack can add a matching member when the site still needs 1G copper density instead of a platform change. Specify C3650-STACK-KIT= plus one STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M= cable and verify the same platform before purchase.

Not Suitable If

PoE endpoint power

The 48 RJ-45 downlinks are data only; choose C9300L-48P-4G-A when the current order needs 48 PoE ports with 4x1G uplinks.

10G distribution uplinks

Four fixed SFP uplinks operate at 1G; choose C9300L-48T-4X-A when the current order needs 48 data ports with 4x10G uplinks.

Questions & Answers

What does WS-C3650-48TS-S mean?

WS-C3650-48TS-S identifies a Catalyst 3650 standalone switch with optional stacking, 48 10/100/1000 Ethernet data ports, 4x1G uplink ports, a PWR-C2-250WAC power supply and the IP Base feature set. The part number is not a PoE model, so the access ports are data only.

How is WS-C3650-48TS-S managed?

WS-C3650-48TS-S is managed through the console CLI, Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Telnet, SSH and SNMPv3. StackWise-160 operation presents a stack through one IP address, one Telnet session and one CLI session when members use the required matching platform and license level.

What is the lifecycle status of WS-C3650-48TS-S?

WS-C3650-48TS-S is end-of-sale; the end-of-sale date was 31 October 2021 and the last date of Cisco support is 31 October 2026. Cisco software maintenance releases ended 31 October 2022, so post-support orders rely on reseller warranty and sparing instead of Cisco service.

What condition and warranty options does ORM offer for WS-C3650-48TS-S?

ORM offers WS-C3650-48TS-S new sealed and certified refurbished, while Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime coverage is bounded by the 31 October 2026 last date of support. ORM warranty is up to 3 years on new units and up to 1 year on certified refurbished units, with 30-day returns.

Does WS-C3650-48TS-S support PoE?

No, WS-C3650-48TS-S does not provide PoE. The switch has 48 data 10/100/1000 Ethernet access ports and a PWR-C2-250WAC supply, while PoE variants such as WS-C3650-48PS-S use PoE+ ports and a PWR-C2-640WAC supply.

How many uplink ports does WS-C3650-48TS-S have?

WS-C3650-48TS-S has four fixed 1G SFP uplink ports. The uplinks are built into the chassis rather than added through a network module, so the purchase plan should include the required SFP optics separately for the fiber plant.

Can WS-C3650-48TS-S be stacked?

Yes, WS-C3650-48TS-S supports StackWise-160 stacking with up to nine switches. Order C3650-STACK-KIT= for the stack module and choose STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M= for the required stack cable length. Mixed LAN Base, IP Base and IP Services stacks are not supported.

Which license does WS-C3650-48TS-S use?

WS-C3650-48TS-S ships with IP Base as the permanent feature set. A 48-port IP Base unit can upgrade to IP Services with C3650-48-S-E paper RTU or L-C3650-48-S-E electronic RTU licensing; evaluation licensing is not orderable and expires after 90 days.

What older switch did WS-C3650-48TS-S replace?

WS-C3560V2-48TS-S and WS-C3750V2-48TS-S moved to WS-C3650-48TS-S as their replacement path. The transition moved the 48-port data role from older Fast Ethernet Catalyst switches to Gigabit Ethernet access with 4x1G uplinks and IP Base software.

Does WS-C3650-48TS-S need a second power supply?

WS-C3650-48TS-S ships with one PWR-C2-250WAC power supply and supports a secondary supply bay. Add PWR-C2-250WAC= for AC redundancy or PWR-C2-640WDC= when a DC supply is required for a non-multigigabit 3650 deployment. The second supply is not part of the base unit.

What is the difference between WS-C3650-48TS-S and WS-C3650-48PS-S?

WS-C3650-48PS-S adds 48 PoE+ access ports and a PWR-C2-640WAC supply, while WS-C3650-48TS-S uses 48 data-only ports and PWR-C2-250WAC. Choose WS-C3650-48PS-S only for legacy 3650 PoE sparing; choose WS-C3650-48TS-S for non-PoE 1G data drops.

What is the difference between WS-C3650-48TS-S and WS-C3650-48TS-E?

WS-C3650-48TS-E carries the IP Services feature set, while WS-C3650-48TS-S carries IP Base on the same 48-port data and 4x1G uplink hardware description. WS-C3650-48TS-E suits legacy full Layer 3 feature sparing; WS-C3650-48TS-S suits IP Base access standardization.

What is the difference between WS-C3650-48TS-S and C9300L-48T-4G-A?

C9300L-48T-4G-A is the named replacement for WS-C3650-48TS-S and moves the refresh path to Catalyst 9300L with Network Advantage and 4x1G uplinks. C9300L-48T-4G-A suits current refresh purchasing; WS-C3650-48TS-S suits installed-base 3650 sparing where matching stacks matter.
