4 x Gigabit Ethernet network modules
C3850-NM-2-10G
4 x Gigabit Ethernet/2 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet network modules
C3850-NM-4-10G
4 x Gigabit Ethernet/4 x 10 Gigabit Ethernet network modules
The C3850-NM-4-10G module is supported on the 48-port models only.
The SFP+ interface supports both 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing customers to use their
investment in Gigabit Ethernet SFP and upgrade to 10 Gigabit Ethernet when business demands change without
having to do a comprehensive upgrade of the access switch. The three network modules are hot swappable and
can be used in any of the combinations shown in Table 3.

Dual Redundant Modular Power Supplies
The Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches support dual redundant power supplies. The switch ships with one
power supply by default, and the second power supply can be purchased at the time of ordering the switch or at a
later time. If only one power supply is installed, it should always be in power supply bay 1. The switch also ships
with three field-replaceable fans. (See Figure 3.)
