Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates as a full-featured Layer 2 managed device with comprehensive protocol support. The 48-port configuration is split between 24 PoE+ ports delivering up to 30W per port and 24 standard PoE ports, all supporting 10/100/1000Base-T auto-negotiation. The 370W total PoE budget provides ample power for connected devices while the switch itself consumes only 150W under typical operation.
The switching fabric supports jumbo frames up to 10K bytes for efficient data transfer, while IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation with LACP enables port trunking for increased bandwidth and redundancy. Four SFP slots accept mini-GBIC transceivers for 100/1000Base-X fiber connections, providing essential uplink flexibility.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Network (RJ-45), Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

Deployment / Use Cases
This switch excels in environments requiring both high-density connectivity and Power over Ethernet delivery. The 48-port design with substantial PoE budget makes it particularly suitable for office deployments where multiple IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras need to be powered and connected from a single switching point.
The rack-mountable form factor and compact 1U height allow for efficient data center or wiring closet installation. Educational institutions can leverage this switch for classroom technology deployments, while retail environments benefit from its ability to power point-of-sale systems, digital signage, and surveillance equipment simultaneously.
Medium Business Core Switching
Serve as the primary switching layer for offices with 30-50 workstations, providing both data connectivity and device power through a single infrastructure component.
Unified Communications Platform
Support VoIP deployments by powering IP phones while maintaining quality of service for voice traffic and providing fiber uplinks to connect to wider network infrastructure.
Physical Profile
The switch features a standard 19-inch rack-mountable design with a height of 1.73 inches (1U), making it compatible with standard rack enclosures. The desktop form factor option provides flexibility for smaller installations or temporary deployments. The compact dimensions of 17.32 inches wide by 16.97 inches deep ensure efficient use of rack space while allowing adequate airflow for cooling.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (44 mm), 17.32" (440 mm), 16.97" (431 mm), 13.45 lb (6100 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
