Cisco Catalyst Multigigabit Technology
Cisco Multigigabit Ethernet is a unique innovation to the new Cisco Catalyst Ethernet access switches. With the enormous growth of 802.11ac and new wireless applications, wireless devices are promoting the demand for more network bandwidth. This creates a need for a technology that supports speeds higher than 1 Gbps on all cabling infrastructure. Cisco multigigabit technology allows you to achieve bandwidth speeds from 1 Gbps through 10 Gbps over traditional Category 5e (Cat 5e) cabling or above. In addition, the multigigabit ports on select Cisco Catalyst switches support Cisco UPOE, which is increasingly important for next-generation workspaces and Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems.
Cisco multigigabit technology offers significant benefits for a diverse range of speeds, cable types, and PoE power. The benefits can be grouped into three different areas:
● Multiple speeds: Cisco Catalyst Multigigabit Technology supports autonegotiation of multiple speeds on switch ports. The supported speeds are 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, and 5 Gbps on Cat 5e cable and up to 10 Gbps over Cat 6a cabling
● Cable type: The technology supports a wide range of cable types, including Cat 5e, Cat 6, and Cat 6a or above
● PoE power: The technology supports PoE, PoE+, and Cisco UPOE for all the supported speeds and cable types
Cisco Catalyst 3650 Mini Switches
The Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series adds new mini switches to the existing 3650 family of switches. These switches are less than 12” deep and quieter than the existing 3650 switches, making them perfect to deploy in tight wiring cabinets, racks, or user spaces where depth of the switch is a concern. You can avoid replacing the cabinets or mounting the switch at an angle and as a result reduce downtime to the network. These switches enable the same uniform wired-wireless policy enforcement, application visibility, flexibility, application optimization, and superior resiliency as the existing 3650 switches. They come in 24- and 48-port 10M/100M/1000M switch SKUs (WS-C3650-24PDM and WS-C3650-48FQM) and support all the same features as the existing 3650 switches except that they come with fixed fans, fixed power supplies, and support for external RPS2300 for redundancy. These PoE switches support both PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at standard), providing up to 30W of power for 12 ports for a total of 390W on the 24-port model and up to 30W of power for 24 ports for a total of 775W on the 48-port model. The 24-port switch has 2x1 Gigabit Ethernet SFP and 2x10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ uplinks; the 48-port switch has 4x10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ uplinks to support any high-bandwidth application. These switches support stacking and can stack with each other or the existing 3650 switches using the same Cisco StackWise-160 technology. The 3650 mini and 3650 use the same software and thus can be deployed and managed using the same policies, configuration, and so on as the existing 3650 switches. Some use cases for the 3650 mini are the following:
Small Offices and Branches
Many small branches and satellite offices where there are few employees do not have larger wiring closets because of space constraints. A typical office like this has smaller cabinets and would need a switch that can serve few employees, provide PoE support, can manage wired-wireless networks, and applies the same consistent policies as a bigger branch or office. Because of its less than 12” depth, lower noise, and support for 10G uplinks along with stacking, advanced security, and wired-wireless convergence, the 3650 mini is the perfect switch for this type of space.
Education
The 3650 mini switch extends access to labs, classrooms, and other training rooms from the central/floor distribution rooms, reducing cost of cabling and providing superior quality of service with enhanced security, wired-wireless convergence, and enterprise network features. Because of its shallow depth and lower noise, these switches are ideally suited for classrooms or confined areas.
Retail
A typical retail outlet needs to serve customers at multiple sales points, each with a POS machine, access points, phone, printer, video display with network, and some PoE powering. These retail outlets connect to the access router that connects them to the outside network and typically need switches that fit in shallow depth cabinets. Because of the 12” depth of these switches along with advanced security and networking features, they can help retailers efficiently utilize space and save on real estate cost.
