Q1: What is the total PoE power budget of the Huawei S5735S-L24P4X-A?
A: The switch integrates an AC power module that provides a PoE budget of 380 W, allowing it to reliably power multiple IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) devices such as Wi-Fi 6 access points and PTZ cameras.
Q2: Are the uplink ports on the S5735S-L24P4X-A 1G or 10G?
A: It is equipped with 4 × 10GE SFP+ uplink ports, ensuring high-bandwidth aggregation without bottlenecks.
Q3: Does the CloudEngine S5735S-L24P4X-A support Layer 3 routing?
A: Yes. It is a fully managed Layer 3 switch supporting IPv4 static routing, RIPv1/v2, and OSPF for enterprise network segmentation.
Q4: What is the forwarding rate and switching capacity of this model?
A: The switch delivers a forwarding rate of 96 Mpps, with a device switching capacity of 128 Gbps and a system switching capacity of 336 Gbps.
Q5: Is the S5735S-L24P4X-A a fanless switch?
A: No. It uses an active cooling system with two intelligent fan modules that dynamically adjust speed based on internal temperature.
Q6: Can multiple switches be stacked together?
A: Yes. With Huawei’s iStack technology, up to 9 switches can be virtualized into a single logical device, providing up to 80 Gbps bidirectional stack bandwidth.
Q7: Does it support Perpetual PoE and Fast PoE?
A: Yes. Perpetual PoE maintains uninterrupted power during system reboots, while Fast PoE enables rapid power delivery shortly after startup.
Q8: What is the maximum power consumption of the device?
A: The chassis consumes up to 53.8 W without PoE load. When fully utilizing the 380 W PoE budget, total system consumption reaches 433.8 W.
Q9: What are the CPU and memory specifications?
A: It is powered by a 2-core 1000 MHz CPU, with 512 MB of RAM and 512 MB of flash memory (approximately 306 MB available for users).
Q10: Can this switch be managed via the cloud?
A: Yes. It supports Huawei CloudCampus and can be managed via platforms such as iMaster NCE-Campus for remote deployment and monitoring.
Q11: Does the switch include a USB port for configuration?
A: Yes. A USB 2.0 port is available for local deployment tasks such as configuration import/export and firmware upgrades.
Q12: What are the physical dimensions and weight?
A: The switch features a compact 1U design with dimensions of 43.6 mm (H) × 442 mm (W) × 220 mm (D), and a total weight of approximately 3.93 kg including packaging.
