We are looking to replace our wiring-closet switches. We have choice of going with either 3650 or 3850.
I am comparing these two 48 ports PoE+ models:
WS-C3850-48F-L
WS-C3650-48FD-L
I am unable to see any big difference in terms of features. Though 3850 provides significantly higher stacking bandwidth and backplane I do not see other difference. There is not much difference in price either...only 10 - 15%. Why would anyone go with 3650 when a higher performance 3850 is available with little price difference?
