WS-C3650-8X24PD-E Use Case
High-Density Wi-Fi 6 Campus Upgrade with Multi-Gigabit Uplinks
In a large university campus deploying Cisco Catalyst 3650 (WS-C3650-8X24PD-E), IT teams connect 24 Wi-Fi 6 APs over mGig ports and leverage dual 10 Gb uplinks to the core. Advanced IP Services enable seamless VLAN segmentation, QoS prioritization, and OSPF routing. Outcome: Up to 2.5× faster wireless throughput, simplified AP provisioning, and enterprise-grade network resilience.
Retail IP Surveillance with PoE Power and 10 Gb Aggregation
A multinational retail chain installs 24 high-resolution IP cameras per store, directly powered by Catalyst 3650’s PoE+ mGig ports. Dual 10 Gb uplinks aggregate video streams to a regional VMS cluster. Outcome: Centralized camera management, zero-downtime power delivery, and fortified lossless video capture for real-time loss prevention.
Unified Communications and Secure Branch Consolidation
A corporate headquarter consolidates LAN routing, switching, IP telephony and wireless backhaul on a single Catalyst 3650 with IP Services. The 24 PoE+ mGig ports drive IP phones and conference units while 10 Gb uplinks connect to redundant data centers. Outcome: Reduced hardware footprint, end-to-end QoS for voice/video, and granular access control via integrated ACLs and dynamic segmentation.
