Every WhaleyComm unit is professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and certified by our in-house engineers — the same standard trusted by 5,000+ organisations across 25 years. Not a refurb marketplace. A certified lifecycle partner.

Tested to factory specification. Backed by 25 years of enterprise trust.

The Cisco Catalyst WS-C3850-24T-S is a high-performance, stackable managed switch built for demanding enterprise environments. Offered here in Refurbished condition, this switch provides a cost-effective path to reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity without compromising on features or durability.

Featuring 24 x 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 ports, the WS-C3850-24T-S is engineered for high-density access layer deployments where consistent throughput and low latency are critical. The switch runs Cisco IOS XE, offering an advanced, modular operating system familiar to network engineers and compatible with modern automation and orchestration tools.

The Catalyst 3850 series supports StackWise-480 technology, allowing multiple switches to be combined into a single logical unit — simplifying management and increasing redundancy across your network infrastructure. The -S suffix denotes the LAN Base software feature set, suitable for organizations requiring core Layer 2 switching capabilities with select Layer 3 features.

This refurbished unit has been inspected and tested to ensure full operational functionality, making it an ideal choice for cost-conscious IT departments, secondary network buildouts, lab environments, and growing SMB or mid-enterprise networks. Backed by WhaleyComm's quality assurance process, you can deploy with confidence.
