Product Review

The Cisco WS-C3850-48UW-S switch offers 48 UPOE ports, supporting advanced power over Ethernet capabilities, essential for high-power devices and ensuring efficient energy usage across the network. However, it comes with only a basic IP Base feature set, limiting advanced routing features without an additional license upgrade, potentially increasing overall costs for more complex network needs. Its operational temperature and altitude ranges, along with redundant power supply support, ensure reliable performance in a variety of environmental conditions and installations, although the noise level of 44 dBA might be a consideration for deployments in quieter office settings.
