OVERVIEW The Cisco 3850 series of Catalyst switches is a superior option for advanced converged wired/WiFi networks within medium-to-large scale operations. These are designed for organizations with the need for large data pipes - up to 40Gbps per switch - and a single integrated solution for managing their mixed network through a single, powerful architecture. The Cisco Catalyst 3850 line has 24 or 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, along with a modular design for the uplinks, allowing for configurations of either 4x Gigabit Ethernet, 2x 10-Gigabit Ethernet, or 4x 10Gigabit Ethernet uplinks. Two specialty 3850 models allow for either 12 or 24 SFP+ ports for complete flexibility. The built-in WiFi access point controller can handle up to 50 access points, and 2,000 concurrent users. APPEARANCE All switches ship with one of the five power supplies (350WAC, 715WAC, 750WAC, 1100WAC, or 440WDC). Figures 1 through 3 show the Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches. Figure 1.

? Support 802.11ac Wave 2 with Catalyst Multigigabit Technology and get speeds beyond 1 Gigabit on existing Category 5e/6 cables. The 3850 switch has multigigabit ports to support 1, 2.5, 5, and 10-Gbps speeds on select models.

PoE, PoE+, and UPOE

? Power your solutions with support for PoE and PoE+ to provide up to 30W of power per port, or 60W of power per port with UPOE. Remove the need for additional electrical cabling and circuits to power your access points and IP phones. Add power to your solutions.

Effective security

? Get support for Flexible NetFlow, Cisco TrustSec, and MACsec encryption. Use your network as a security sensor and enforcer.

Cisco StackWise-480 technology

? Achieve scalability and resiliency with 480 Gbps of stack throughput. Get much higher speeds than previous switching generations.

Benefits

Converged Wired plus Wireless Access

The Cisco Catalyst 3850 is the first stackable access switching platform that enables wired plus wireless services on a single Cisco IOS XE Software-based platform. With this, Cisco has pioneered a host of rich capabilities such as high availability based on stateful switchover (SSO) on stacking, granular QoS, security, and Flexible Netflow (FNF) across wired and wireless in a seamless fashion. Also, the wired plus wireless features are bundled into a single Cisco IOS Software image, which reduces the number of software images that users have to qualify/certify before enabling them in their network. The single console port for command-line interface (CLI) management reduces the number of touch points to manage for wired plus wireless services, thereby reducing network complexity, simplifying network operations, and lowering the TCO to manage the infrastructure.

Converged wired plus wireless not only improves wireless bandwidth across the network but also the scale of wireless deployment. Each 48-port Cisco Catalyst 3850 provides 40 Gbps of wireless throughput (20 Gbps on the 24-port/12-port models). This wireless capacity increases with the number of members in the stack. This makes sure that the network can scale with current wireless bandwidth requirements, as dictated by IEEE 802.11n-based access points and with future wireless standards such as IEEE 802.11ac. Additionally, the Cisco Catalyst 3850 distributes the wireless controller functions to achieve better scalability. Each Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch/stack can operate as the wireless controller in two modes (Figure 8):

? Mobility agent (MA): This is the default mode in which a Cisco Catalyst 3850 switch ships. In this mode the switch is capable of terminating the CAPWAP tunnels from the access points and providing wireless connectivity to wireless clients. Maintaining wireless client databases and configuring and enforcing security and QoS policies for wireless clients and access points can be enforced in this mode. No additional license on top of IP Base is required to operate in the mobility agent mode.
