What ports does the HPE 5500-48G-PoE+ EI offer?

It provides 44 x RJ-45 10/100/1000Base-T autosensing PoE+ ports (IEEE 802.3at) and 4 dual-personality ports (10/100/1000Base-T or SFP), plus 2 interface slots, 4 SFP expansion slots, and 1 RS-232C console port. Features include Auto-MDIX and duplex support for flexible connectivity.

What is the PoE power budget?

The switch supports a 740W PoE power budget with 910W maximum power rating from redundant hot-swappable supplies on 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz input. This enables powering up to 44 PoE+ devices like APs and cameras simultaneously.

Can it stack with other switches?

Yes, it supports stacking up to 8 units per stack using IRF technology, functioning as a single logical switch. This enhances scalability and simplifies management in enterprise edge or aggregation deployments.

What management features are included?

Includes Quality of Service (QoS), security features, granular policy implementation, and protocols like UDLD, LLDP, IEEE 802.3 standards. Fully managed Layer 2/3/4 operations with ProVision ASIC-based fabric and 64K MAC address table.

What are the physical dimensions and form factor?

1U rackmount chassis measures 16.54(d) x 17.32(w) x 1.72(h) inches (42 x 44 x 4.36 cm), with redundant hot-swappable fans for cooling. Safety certified to UL 60950-1 and IEC 60950-1.

Is it suitable for enterprise core use?

Designed for edge/aggregation in large enterprises or core in SMBs, with multiservice support, IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack, and high expandability via slots for GbE/10GbE modules.
