Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary uplink options for the Cisco WS-C3850-24XU-E? +
This switch features a single network module slot designed for flexibility in uplink connectivity. Depending on your current infrastructure requirements, you can populate this slot with various Cisco Catalyst 3850 series network modules, supporting multiple SFP or SFP+ configurations to accommodate 10GbE or 1GbE uplinks as needed for your specific deployment.
Does the WS-C3850-24XU-E support UPoE for power-hungry endpoints? +
Yes, this model is equipped with 24 Universal Power over Ethernet (UPoE) ports. It provides up to 60W of power per port, making it an ideal solution for high-density environments utilizing advanced endpoints like Cisco TelePresence units, high-performance Wi-Fi 6 access points, and sophisticated pan-tilt-zoom security cameras that exceed standard PoE+ power delivery constraints.
Can I integrate the WS-C3850-24XU-E into an existing Cisco StackWise-480 stack? +
Absolutely. This unit is fully compatible with StackWise-480 technology, allowing you to create a high-speed, unified logical switch. By stacking this 24-port multi-gigabit switch with other members of the Catalyst 3850 family, you can scale your bandwidth and port density significantly while maintaining centralized management across the stack.
What is the benefit of the multi-gigabit port capability on this switch? +
The multi-gigabit ports on the WS-C3850-24XU-E allow you to run 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, or 10G speeds over existing Cat5e or Cat6 cabling. This eliminates the need for expensive forklift upgrades to your physical copper plant while still supporting the high throughput demands of modern wireless access points and high-speed enterprise devices.
What license level comes pre-installed on the WS-C3850-24XU-E? +
The 'E' in the product SKU indicates that this switch comes with the Cisco IP Services software license. This provides advanced Layer 3 routing capabilities, including OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and PBR. This license level is designed for enterprise-grade environments that require robust routing protocols, policy-based access control, and sophisticated network segmentation features out of the box.
How much power does the included 1100W AC power supply provide for PoE? +
The included 1100W AC power supply is sized to support the full data-forwarding capacity of the switch while providing a substantial power budget for UPoE-enabled devices. It ensures high availability and reliable power delivery, though if you require full redundancy or higher power budgeting for all 24 ports at maximum UPoE draw, you may consider adding a secondary modular power supply.
Is the WS-C3850-24XU-E suitable for demanding 10GBASE-T deployments? +
Yes, this switch is specifically engineered for high-performance 10GBASE-T environments. It provides line-rate performance across its 24 multi-gigabit ports, ensuring that your enterprise network can handle the throughput requirements of modern data centers, high-speed storage, and high-density wireless backhaul without experiencing bottlenecks at the access or distribution layer.
What management protocols are supported on this Cisco 3850 Series switch? +
This switch supports a wide array of management protocols including SNMP, CLI, and Cisco DNA Center. It is fully compatible with industry-standard management platforms, allowing for granular visibility, automated provisioning, and comprehensive monitoring. Whether you prefer a traditional command-line interface or a software-defined networking approach, this switch provides the necessary hooks for effective oversight.
