Cutoff approachingCisco support for the Cisco Catalyst 3650 Series ends soon. Weigh these before the cutoff:
Support ends soon — set the replacement window now, not mid-outage.
Bridge coverage past the OEM cutoff if you can't migrate in time.
Get the replacement into this planning cycle.
Secure spares before they get scarce after end-of-sale.
Independent and informational — EOSL.ai sells no hardware or maintenance and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the asset's role.
