Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet (UPOE)
Cisco Universal Power over Ethernet is a breakthrough technology, offering the following services and benefits
●
60W per port to enable a variety of end devices such as Samsung VDI client, BT IP turret systems in
trading floors, Cisco Catalyst compact switches in retail/hospitality environments, personal Cisco
Telepresence
®
systems, and physical access control devices
●
High availability for power and guaranteed uninterrupted services, a requirement for critical applications
(e911)
●
Lowering OpEx by providing network resiliency at lower cost by consolidating backup power into the wiring
closet
●
Faster deployment of new campus access networking infrastructures by eliminating the need for a power
outlet for every endpoint

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 model). 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:
