- PoE models support IEEE 802.3af/at (likely up to 740 W or 1440 W budgets depending on port count).
Core Features & Differences
10G Uplink & High Bandwidth
Each model features 4×1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, making the RG‑S5350 series a true 10GE switch suitable for aggregation and distribution layer deployments.
Modular OS & VSU Virtual Stacking
With RGOS 12.X, RG‑S5350 supports VSU across mixed models — enabling seamless failover, unified configuration, and simplified scalability.
Layer-2+ and Advanced Layer-3 Capabilities
Supports extensive VLAN features, STP/MSTP, ERPS, BFD, VRRP, IS-IS, OSPFv2/v3, RIPng, and BGP. Suitable as an Aggregation Switch or edge Enterprise Switch with full routing.
PoE Power Applicability
Robust PoE/PoE+ support enables powering of Wi-Fi APs, cameras, and endpoints on fiber-capable versions—perfect for modern smart campus setups.
Security & Resilience
Includes ARP/DHCP snooping, IP-MAC-Port binding, dynamic ACLs, NFPP, CPP, and loop/guard protocols — ideal for Campus Switch applications requiring tight edge security.
Quiet & Efficient
Variable-speed fans and energy-efficient hardware make these ethernet switches manageable for both wiring closets and equipment rooms.
Deployment Scenarios
Building-Wired Access Layer
48‑port RJ45 models can serve as Gigabit access points for wired users, cameras, and phones, with 10G uplinks connecting to campus backbone.
Wi‑Fi 6/7 AP Aggregator
PoE/PoE+ versions provide power and data to high-powered APs, offloading the need for injectors and improving deployment agility.
Fiber-Only Access or Labs
SFP models support fiber-based device connectivity—useful in laboratories, server areas, or densely wired zones.
Distributed Aggregation / Redundancy
With VSU and multi-gig uplinks, RG‑S5350 can act as a resilient distribution switch for campus pods, aggregating multiple access stacks.
Scalable Campus Core Connector
Supports IPv6 and BGP — enabling RG‑S5350 to act as an Enterprise Switch connecting to core routers.
Deployment & Management Experience
- Zero‑touch provisioning via Ruijie Cloud / INC with template-based onboarding.
- Hot‑swap PSUs and fans ensure service continuity during maintenance.
- Unified visibility through Ruijie Cloud and SNMPv3/CLI/Web management.
- Advanced telemetry tools (sFlow, RMON, NetStream) facilitate operational analytics.
