The Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series delivers enterprise-class stackable access-layer switches with integrated wireless controller capability, supporting up to 40G of wireless capacity per switch and up to 50 access points with 2000 wireless clients. The switches feature Cisco's Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) ASIC for uniform wired-wireless policy enforcement, StackWise-480 technology providing 480 Gbps of stack throughput, and full IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support. We offer these switches with redundant fans and power supplies, modular field-replaceable network modules, and energy-efficient Ethernet capabilities.

The Fargo HDP5600 features 300 dpi (11.8 dots/mm) continuous tone printing with support for up to 16.7 million colors and 256 shades per pixel, delivering superior text and image quality for high-definition ID cards. This resolution is ideal for government agencies, universities, corporations, and healthcare facilities that require professional-grade ID production.

The Catalyst 3850 Series supports three optional uplink module configurations: 4 x Gigabit Ethernet ports, 2 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, or 4 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports. The 48-port model we offer includes 48 10/100/1000 data and PoE+ ports, providing flexibility for various network architectures and bandwidth requirements. These modular options allow you to customize connectivity based on your specific infrastructure needs.

The HDP5600 accepts standard CR-80 cards (3.375˝L x 2.125˝W) and CR-79 adhesive back cards, with card thickness ranging from .009˝ to .040˝ (9 mil to 40 mil). It supports PVC or polyester cards with polished PVC finish, and monochrome resin is required for 100% poly cards.

The Cisco Catalyst 3850 supports multiple power supply configurations including 350W AC, 715W AC, 1100W AC, and 440W DC options to match different deployment requirements. The switch also features Cisco StackPower technology that provides power stacking among stack members for enhanced power redundancy and reliability. Operating temperatures range from -5°C to +45°C, making it suitable for standard data center and enterprise network environments.

The Fargo HDP5600 comes standard with an HID Prox Reader (Omnikey Cardman 5125) for 125 kHz proximity card reading. Additional encoding options available from us include 13.56 MHz contactless smart card read/write capability, contact smart card encoding, and ISO magnetic stripe encoding.

The Catalyst 3850 Series achieves full convergence between wired and wireless on a single platform through its Unified Access Data Plane (UADP) application-specific integrated circuit, which enables uniform policy enforcement across both network types. This integrated wireless controller capability allows the switch to manage up to 50 access points and 2000 wireless clients per switching entity while maintaining consistent application visibility and optimization. The convergence architecture simplifies network management and reduces the need for separate wireless and wired infrastructure.

The HDP5600 offers multiple ribbon configurations including full-color YMCKO (24 seconds per card), resin black only (7 seconds per card), and specialty options like fluorescent and dual-black panels. Ribbon yields range from 175 to 1,000 prints depending on the configuration selected.

The Catalyst 3850 provides comprehensive management through SNMP v1, v2c, and v3 protocols, command-line interface (CLI), and web-based management interfaces. These management options allow IT teams to monitor, configure, and maintain the switch remotely using industry-standard tools and protocols. Contact us today to discuss management integration with your existing network infrastructure.

The Fargo HDP5600 includes a three-year printer warranty with On-Call Express service in the US for the first year, plus a lifetime warranty on the printhead. This comprehensive coverage ensures long-term reliability for high-volume ID card production environments.

Yes, the Catalyst 3850 is designed as an enterprise-class stackable switch ideal for warehouse, logistics, and large-scale network deployments requiring high availability and integrated wireless capabilities. Its StackWise-480 technology provides 480 Gbps of stack throughput for scalability, redundant power and cooling for reliability, and support for thousands of wireless clients for mobile device connectivity in warehouse operations. We offer the Catalyst 3850 to support demanding logistics environments where both wired infrastructure and wireless access points are critical for operations.

The HDP5600 connects via USB 2.0 and Ethernet with an internal print server, making it compatible with Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003/2008, Windows 7, and Linux operating systems. It requires 32 MB RAM and operates in environments ranging from 65° to 80°F with 20–80% non-condensing humidity. Contact us today for integration assistance with your existing IT infrastructure.
