Office Network Core
Serve as the central switching point for departmental networks, providing inter-VLAN routing and quality of service for voice and data traffic.
Data Center Access
Connect servers and storage devices with the flexibility of copper connections for short runs and SFP+ options for longer distances or higher speeds.
Physical Profile
The switch features a standard 1U rack-mountable design with dimensions of 1.73" (43.94 mm) height, 17.50" (444.50 mm) width, and 17.63" (447.68 mm) depth. The 16 lb weight and rack-mountable form factor make it suitable for standard 19-inch rack installations in data centers, wiring closets, or network cabinets.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (43.94 mm), 17.50" (444.50 mm), 17.63" (447.68 mm), 16 lb (7257.48 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

FAQ
How many network ports does this switch have?
The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3650-24PD has 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports for connecting network devices. These ports support 10/100/1000Base-T connections with auto-negotiation, allowing compatibility with various Ethernet devices from legacy 10 Mbps equipment to modern Gigabit devices.
What type of uplink expansion does this switch support?
This switch includes two SFP+ expansion slots that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. These uplink ports can be used for high-speed connections to other switches, routers, servers, or storage devices, providing flexibility for network backbone or server farm deployments.
Is this a Layer 2 or Layer 3 switch?
This is a Layer 3 managed switch, meaning it can perform IP routing functions in addition to traditional Layer 2 switching. The Layer 3 capabilities enable features like inter-VLAN routing, static routing, and dynamic routing protocols, reducing the need for separate routers in many network designs.
What rack size does this switch require?
The switch has a 1U form factor, meaning it occupies one rack unit of space in a standard 19-inch rack. With dimensions of 1.73" height, 17.50" width, and 17.63" depth, it fits standard rack cabinets and can be mounted using standard rack mounting hardware.
Does this switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
No, this specific model (WS-C3650-24PD) does not support Power over Ethernet on its RJ-45 ports. The switch provides data connectivity only and requires separate power connections for PoE devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, or security cameras.
What is included with this refurbished switch?
The package includes the Catalyst WS-C3650-24PD Layer 3 Switch and the necessary power supply. As a refurbished unit, it has been thoroughly tested, cleaned, and validated to meet original performance specifications while offering cost savings compared to new equipment.
