Hello, my name is Bob, and I am a Senior Engineer with the Technical Services team at network-switch.com. I am also a certified Cisco CCIE professional and HCIE certifed engineer, which reflects my expertise in networking and my dedication to delivering high-quality technical solutions. I specialize in advanced network configurations, troubleshooting, and providing expert-level support to ensure seamless network operations.

The Ruijie RG‑S5360 Series represents high-performance 10GE switches tailored for campus backbones and aggregation layers. With 24/48 gigabit downlinks, 4×1G/2.5G/10G uplinks, PoE+ options, hot-swappable dual power, RGOS 12.X modular OS, and industrial-grade protections.

The RG‑S5360 aligns as a top-tier Ruijie network switch for Campus, Enterprise, Aggregation, and high-capacity ethernet switch deployments.

48GT4XS‑P‑E 48×1G RJ45 4×1/2.5/10G SFP+ PoE/PoE+ 704 Gbps / 528 Mpps PoE aggregation

Common Features: Nano-coating, dual hot-swappable PSU, industrial temperature (–40 to 65 °C), 10 kV surge resistance, RGOS 12.X, and nano-eco efficiency .

Core Features & Differentiators

Supports 1GbE, 2.5GbE, and 10GbE SFP+ uplinks—ideal for evolving backbone infrastructure without full migration to 10G.

VSU Clustering & System Resilience

Virtual Switch Unit (VSU) enables stacking of compatible switches for unified management, redundancy, and increased port capacity .

Robust Security Layers

ILER: IP Source Guard, DHCP/ARP inspection, ACLs, CPP & NFPP, IEEE 802.1X authentication—essential for secure campus edge and aggregation.

Advanced Layer‑2/3 Protocols

Full support for VLANs, STP/RSTP/MSTP, ERPS, OSPFv2/v3, VRRP, RIPng, BGP, IS-IS, BFD—allowing RG‑S5360 to act effectively as both Campus Switch and Enterprise Switch.

PoE/PoE+ Agility

PoE models deliver full IEEE 802.3af/at support, fulfilling outdoor surveillance, PoE camera, and AP power demands on gigabit access ports.

Eco-Friendly & Durable Design

Nano-coating protects against corrosive environments; efficient fans adapt speed to load, reducing noise and power draw.

Deployment Scenarios

Gigabit Access for Enterprise Floors

48-port RJ45 variants serve user workstations, phones, and APs, with uplinks to backbone via 10G.

PoE‑Powered Connectivity Zones

PoE models support high-density devices (wireless, cameras) with centralized power management—clean and practical.

Aggregation & Mini-Core Layer

Equipped with advanced routing and high throughput, RG‑S5360 fits well in aggregation pods or small core deployments.

Fiber-Wired Buildings or Labs

Use 24/48-port SFP+ models for 100% fiber device connectivity in labs or secure zones.

Rugged / Outdoor Antenna Hubs

Nano-coating and surge resilience make these switches suitable for roof-top AP or remote aggregation points.

Deployment & Management Experience

  • Zero-touch onboarding via Ruijie INC and WIS—plug-and-play activation with automated IP assignment.
  • Hot-swap PSU/fan modules ensure continuous operation during maintenance.
  • Unified GUI/CLI and SNMPv3 simplify multi-site management.
  • Rich telemetry (sFlow, RMON, SSH, TACACS+, Syslog) supports monitoring and analytics.
  • Durable build and energy efficiency cut TCO while guaranteeing uptime.
