WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L provides eight multigigabit copper downlinks alongside 16 Gigabit Ethernet downlinks in a 24-port enterprise access switch. The multigigabit connections negotiate 100 Mbps, 1G, 2.5G, 5G or 10G, while Cisco UPOE supplies powered endpoints across the access ports. Four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks provide distribution connectivity without a removable uplink card. This Cisco Catalyst 3650 configuration occupies one rack unit and ships with LAN Base, placing its as-shipped routing capability at Layer 2+ rather than full dynamic routed access. The port mix accommodates ordinary Gigabit endpoints alongside higher-speed access connections. The discontinued WS-C3650-8X24PD-L sibling uses PoE+ rather than UPOE, a distinction that matters when matching powered-device requirements to an existing installation.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L price for new stock is $5,775.00, a 47.3% saving from the Cisco list price of $10,958.00. WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L refurb price is $1,923.08. WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

272 Gbps switching capacity provides the aggregate switching ceiling for traffic sizing, while 202.38 Mpps forwarding capacity supplies the packet-rate reference. 820W of available PoE power is shared among connected powered devices rather than reserved equally for every port. Static routing supports limited routed connectivity; full OSPF and BGP are not included in the as-shipped feature set. WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L carries 4 GB of DRAM and 4 GB of flash for system operation and local software storage. The UADP ASIC handles forwarding, and a 32000-entry MAC table supports learned Ethernet destinations. Management combines console and remote CLI access, SSH or Telnet sessions, a browser-based Web UI, SNMPv3 and Cisco Prime Infrastructure. Three modular fans provide active chassis cooling. The included PWR-C1-1100WAC accepts 115–240V AC, and an optional second internal supply provides a separate procurement path for power redundancy or additional endpoint-power capacity.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L is available new sealed with up to a three-year extended ORM warranty or certified refurbished with up to one year; both conditions include 30-day returns, terms apply. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested, including PoE output under load on every powered port, optics bay recognition, firmware verification, and configuration wiping to factory default. Specify the condition and accessory PIDs on the PO before placing the order. For enterprise and volume orders, POs are accepted, government Net-30 and RMA with advance replacement are offered, with stock/RMA regions covering the UK, EU, US and MEA; eligible Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty service ends October 31, 2026.

When a purchase adds endpoints requiring 60W across every access connection, full-port UPOE requires two supplies rather than the default single-supply configuration. Specify PWR-C1-715WAC= or PWR-C1-1100WAC= for the second bay while retaining the included PWR-C1-1100WAC, and confirm the complete supply combination on the PO.
When several branches will receive the same access-switch configuration, the LAN Base limit of 255 VLANs belongs in the acceptance criteria. Compare each site's required segmentation against that licensed ceiling rather than assuming another feature set's scale. Record the required production license and VLAN plan before issuing the PO.
When a staging purchase will temporarily exercise a different software feature set, a 90-day evaluation license does not establish permanent production entitlement. Separate evaluation activities from the final acceptance configuration, including the required license activation and reboot. Specify the permanent production entitlement independently of any evaluation before approving the PO.
Multigigabit speeds on every access port
Only eight copper downlinks support multigigabit speeds; the remaining 16 are Gigabit Ethernet ports, so an all-multigigabit access requirement exceeds this configuration.
40G uplinks to distribution
Four fixed SFP+ uplinks terminate at 10G, and there is no removable uplink module bay; a 40G distribution connection cannot be installed.
Dynamic routing without a license upgrade
LAN Base provides limited static routing rather than full OSPF or BGP; a purchase requiring those protocols needs a different entitled software configuration.
Cisco support beyond October 2026
Cisco support ends October 31, 2026. C9300L-24UXG-4X-E is the replacement to evaluate when the order requires a successor rather than discontinued hardware.

WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L identifies a Catalyst 3650 switch with LAN Base licensing. WS-C3650 names the family; 8X24UQ identifies 24 copper downlinks, comprising eight multigigabit and 16 Gigabit ports, with four 10G uplinks; -L selects LAN Base. The configuration also includes an internal AC power supply.
Catalyst 3650 management includes a browser-based Web UI, console CLI, remote CLI over SSH or Telnet, SNMPv3 and Cisco Prime Infrastructure. Licensed DNA integration adds Cisco DNA Center features. SSH and encrypted SNMPv3 require the appropriate cryptographic software image, so the management requirements should accompany the software acceptance criteria.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L is discontinued, with end of sale on October 31, 2021 and last Cisco support on October 31, 2026. Software maintenance ended October 31, 2022. Those milestones distinguish reseller hardware availability from continued manufacturer software maintenance and support when setting the intended service period.
ORM Systems offers WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L new sealed with up to a three-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to one year. Returns are 30 days for either condition; terms apply. Cisco's Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty covers eligible original owners, with Cisco service ending October 31, 2026.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L carries permanent LAN Base RTU licensing; IP Base and IP Services are upgrade tiers. Optional DNA Essentials and DNA Advantage subscriptions have three-, five- or seven-year terms, making three years the minimum. DNA Advantage requires IP Base or IP Services. Subscription expiration is tracked through the assigned Smart Account.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L provides an 820W shared PoE budget with its included PWR-C1-1100WAC and supports Cisco UPOE at 60W per port. The per-port capability is not a guarantee of simultaneous maximum output everywhere. Full-port 60W operation requires the specified two-supply configuration, so endpoint requests must be sized before ordering.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L has four fixed 10G SFP+ uplinks, with support for Gigabit SFP operation in those uplink connections. The uplink architecture is built in rather than supplied through a removable network card. Specify compatible optics for the intended link speed instead of adding an uplink module to the order.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L supports nine-member StackWise-160 stacks when optional stacking hardware is installed. Specify C3650-STACK-KIT= and the required STACK-T2-50CM=, STACK-T2-1M= or STACK-T2-3M= cable length. Stack bandwidth is 160 Gbps. LAN Base members must stack with other LAN Base Catalyst 3650 members, not IP Base or IP Services members.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L provides limited static routing with its as-shipped LAN Base license rather than full OSPF or BGP. LAN Base also has a 255-VLAN ceiling. IP Base adds routed-access capabilities, while IP Services provides advanced routing; entitlement and activation must match the intended production configuration.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L ships with one PWR-C1-1100WAC installed for its default AC-powered configuration. The second internal supply is optional, not included as standard redundant power. A single installed supply belongs in bay 1. Specify PWR-C1-1100WAC= separately when ordering an additional matching supply for the second bay.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L supports 60W Cisco UPOE per port, whereas WS-C3650-8X24PD-L provides 30W PoE+ per port. Both models are discontinued, so this distinction is relevant to matching existing installations and spare inventories. The PD configuration corresponds to PoE+ endpoint requirements; the UQ configuration accommodates higher per-port power requirements.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L ships with LAN Base, whereas WS-C3650-8X24UQ-S ships with IP Base. IP Base adds routed-access capabilities beyond the limited static routing of LAN Base. Both are discontinued. LAN Base corresponds to existing access-switch configurations with limited routing; IP Base corresponds to installations requiring the additional entitled routed-access features.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L is the discontinued model whose Cisco support ends October 31, 2026; C9300L-24UXG-4X-E is its named replacement. The replacement retains a 24-port configuration with eight multigigabit connections and four 10G uplinks. The older model serves existing-installation matching, while the replacement is the migration choice to evaluate for a successor purchase.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L occupies one rack unit and measures 44 mm high, 445 mm wide and 486 mm deep. Its shipped weight is 7.58 kg, and three modular fans provide active cooling. Confirm cabinet depth, rear cable clearance and ventilation before specifying the chassis location on the installation plan.
WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L consumes 123.3W at 100% traffic under the specified test conditions with no PoE loading; the corresponding zero-traffic figure is 110W. These figures exclude powered endpoints and are not a fully populated PoE draw rating. Keep endpoint loading separate when establishing circuit and UPS requirements.
