7. Typical Deployment Scenarios

1. Small Enterprise Stacked Standalone Fast Ethernet Layer 3 Converged Edge Switch: 24 Fast Ethernet ports power desk IP phones and single-band Wi-Fi APs; dual SFP Gigabit uplinks build redundant fiber trunk links to building core multilayer aggregation switches. StackWise stacking unifies multiple 3750-24TS-S units into single logical switch for scalable office access; IP Base baseline Layer 3 routing eliminates low-cost small router hardware for simple multi-VLAN office segmentation.
2. Small K-12 Multi-Classroom Campus Converged Network: Non-PoE Fast Ethernet design for student workstations and classroom VoIP phones; dual SFP Gigabit fiber uplinks connect to campus backbone for low-bandwidth video teaching traffic. MSTP prevents broadcast loop failures across departmental VLANs, flat multi-subnet routing meets entry-level campus network requirements without expensive full IP Services license investment.
3. Small Regional Branch Wiring Closet Main Stackable Multilayer Switch: Universal non-PoE Fast-density access ports connect branch office endpoints; SFP single-mode fiber uplink links to corporate headquarters data center. IP Base baseline EIGRP stub + HSRP redundancy satisfies basic enterprise branch multi-VLAN routing and gateway failover requirements without external dedicated router hardware.
4. Legacy Distributed Flat Layer 2 Network Refresh Hardware: Drop-in stackable replacement for older standalone Fast Ethernet access switches, fully compatible with existing fiber uplink legacy infrastructure, adds baseline hardware CEF inter-VLAN routing and StackWise high availability for gradual migration to modern Catalyst 9200 unified access platforms without intermediate router upgrades.
