Questions & Answers
What is the Cisco Catalyst 3650 24-Port mGig 4x10G Uplink LAN Base (WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L)?
The WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L is a stackable enterprise switch featuring 24 multigigabit (mGig) Ethernet ports and four 10 Gbps SFP+ uplink ports, running Cisco IOS LAN Base for robust Layer 2 switching and basic Layer 3 routing.
Which port speeds does the Catalyst 3650 mGig switch support?
Each of the 24 mGig ports auto-negotiates 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps, while the four uplink ports support 10 Gbps SFP+ modules for high-speed aggregation.
Does the WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L support Power over Ethernet?
Yes. It delivers IEEE 802.3at PoE+ on all 24 mGig ports with a total power budget of up to 370 W, enabling deployment of IP phones, wireless access points and cameras without external injectors.
What stacking technology and capacity does this switch offer?
The Catalyst 3650 uses Cisco StackWise-480 to stack up to nine units into a single logical switch, providing up to 480 Gbps of stack bandwidth and unified management.
Which software features are included with LAN Base on this model?
LAN Base provides comprehensive Layer 2 switching (VLAN, Spanning Tree, EtherChannel) plus basic Layer 3 services (static routing, RIP, access lists) and Cisco TrustSec segmentation.
How do I manage and configure the WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L?
You can manage it via Cisco IOS CLI, Cisco DNA Center, or SNMP; the switch also supports Web UI and Embedded Event Manager for automation and monitoring.
What is the forwarding capacity and latency of the Catalyst 3650?
It delivers up to 176 Gbps switching capacity per unit and line-rate throughput with sub-microsecond latency on all ports, ensuring high-performance traffic handling.
Which security features are built into the Catalyst 3650 mGig switch?
It includes 802.1X authentication, MACsec encryption, DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard, dynamic ARP inspection and port-security to protect network access.
Can I deploy this switch as a wireless controller?
Yes. With embedded Cisco Unified Access Data Plane (UADP), it can locally switch and power up to 50 Cisco access points per unit, eliminating the need for a separate wireless controller.
What are the environmental and physical specifications?
The switch is 1 RU tall, 44.5 cm deep, weighs 4.4 kg and operates from 0 to 45 °C with 10–90% non-condensing humidity, suitable for standard wiring closets.
How does the Catalyst 3650 integrate with Cisco DNA Center?
It supports Cisco DNA Center for intent-based networking, automation, policy enforcement, analytics and software-defined segmentation across campus and branch environments.
What quality-of-service (QoS) capabilities are available?
Hardware-based QoS supports 8 hardware queues per port, traffic classification, policing, shaping and priority scheduling for voice, video and mission-critical data.
Is the Catalyst 3650 interoperable with other vendors’ equipment?
Yes. It complies with IEEE standards (802.3, 802.1Q, 802.1p, 802.1X, 802.3at) for seamless interoperability with third-party switches and network devices.
What warranty and support services are offered?
Cisco provides a limited lifetime hardware warranty, 90-day Cisco Technical Assistance Center support, and the option to purchase Smart Net Total Care for advanced replacement and 24/7 support.
How do I upgrade the operating system on the WS-C3650-8X24UQ-L?
Use Cisco IOS Software Image Management via CLI (copy tftp: flash: or use USB), then reload the switch; Cisco Prime Infrastructure or DNA Center can automate this process.
What deployment scenarios are ideal for this switch?
It’s optimal for enterprise access or distribution layers, high-density WLAN aggregation, PoE+ deployments for IP telephony and surveillance, and small-to-mid-size data centers.
