Cisco Switch 3650

[CSCO11880495]

I would like to use Access Point which is controller based (AIR-CAP1602I-S-K9) and connect via cisco switch.

They would like to use WS-C3650-24TD-S switch and understand that it will

operate as controller.

My question is

1.       Do we require any license for switch to operate as a controller? If

so, please advise the part number for license.

2.Can AIR-CAP1602I-S-K9 support and compatible with WS-C3650-24TD-S

switch?

3.       We required copper transceiver for 10GB link. Could you please

advise exact part number to compatible with above switch model.

"TD" stands for copper ports with 10 Gbps uplink.  But it also means NON-PoE.  So if you want to directly connect the APs to the switch, the APs will need to draw power from a power injector.  

SFP supported are:  10GBASE-SR, LR, LRM, CX1 (v02 or higher) SFP+ transceivers: LC fiber connectors (single-mode or multimode fiber)
