Does it support Layer 3 routing?

Yes, as a managed Layer 3 stackable switch, it supports IPv4/IPv6 routing protocols including static routes, RIP, OSPF, ISIS, BGP, RIPng, OSPFv3. Features like uRPF and BFD provide fast convergence and security. Hardware ACLs ensure wire-speed processing.

What is the PoE capability?

Provides IEEE 802.3at PoE+ on all 24 ports with 370W budget. Allocation methods include automatic, 802.3af class, LLDP-MED, or user-defined for efficiency. Powers IP phones, APs, and cameras, reducing installation costs by eliminating local power supplies.

What are the power supply options?

Dual hot-swappable internal PSUs supported, with AC (100-240V, max 591W) or DC (-48 to -60V, max 492W) inputs. Compatible with RPS 1600 for external redundancy. Heat dissipation around 700 BTU/hr ensures reliable operation.

What is the switching performance?

Nonblocking architecture with up to 192Gbps capacity, 107.2 Mpps throughput. Latency <3.2μs at 1Gbps, <2.6μs at 10Gbps. Supports QoS, storm control, and IRF stacking for high-density, low-latency enterprise edge.

Via CLI, web interface, and SNMP. IRF stacking treats multiple units as one for simplified operations. Features OAM for link monitoring, advanced QoS classifiers, and security like separate data/control paths.

Product overview

The HPE 5500-24G-POE+EI (JG252A) is a managed Layer 3 stackable switch from the HPE 5500 Series, designed for enterprise edge deployments. It features 24 x 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ ports delivering up to 370W PoE power, enabling simplified deployment of IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras without separate power sources. Two 10G SFP+ expansion slots provide high-speed uplinks for aggregation. The 1U rack-mountable chassis supports dual hot-swappable power supplies for redundancy. Management options include CLI, web interface, and SNMP. IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack with static, RIP, OSPF routing ensures future-proofing. Nonblocking architecture offers low latency (<3.2μs at 1Gbps) and high throughput (up to 107.2 Mpps). Ideal for campus LANs, branches with PoE needs, and scalable stacking via IRF. QoS, ACLs, and resiliency features like spanning tree and BFD enhance security and reliability in demanding environments.
