Q1: Is the Huawei CloudEngine S5735-S48T4X a PoE switch?
A: No, the S5735-S48T4X is a data-only (non-PoE) switch. It provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports for devices with independent power sources such as PCs, servers, and printers. For PoE requirements, the S5735-S48P4X model is recommended.
Q2: What is the port configuration of the S5735-S48T4X?
A: It features 48 × 10/100/1000BASE-T (RJ45) downlink ports and 4 × 10GE SFP+ uplink ports, making it suitable for high-density wired access deployments.
Q3: Does the CloudEngine S5735-S48T4X support Layer 3 routing?
A: Yes. It is a fully managed Layer 3 switch supporting IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols, including static routing, RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, and BGP/BGP4+.
Q4: What is the switching capacity and forwarding rate of this model?
A: The switch delivers a forwarding rate of 132 Mpps, with a device switching capacity of 176 Gbps and a system switching capacity of 432 Gbps.
Q5: Does this 48-port switch support redundant power supplies?
A: Yes. It supports 1+1 redundant pluggable power supplies, allowing dual AC or DC modules to ensure uninterrupted network operation.
Q6: What power supply modules are compatible with this switch?
A: Supported modules include the 150 W AC (PAC150S12-R), 180 W DC (PDC180S12-CR), and 1000 W DC (PDC1000S12-DB) power supplies.
Q7: Can I stack multiple S5735-S48T4X switches together?
A: Yes. With Huawei iStack technology, up to nine S5735-S series switches can be combined into a single logical device, simplifying management and improving reliability.
Q8: What is the maximum power consumption of the device?
A: The switch is highly energy-efficient, with a maximum power consumption of 59 W and typical consumption of around 40 W at 30% traffic load.
Q9: How large is the MAC address table?
A: It supports up to 32,896 MAC address entries, suitable for large-scale enterprise and campus networks.
Q10: Can the S5735-S48T4X be managed via the cloud?
A: Yes. It supports Huawei CloudCampus and can be managed via the iMaster NCE-Campus platform, enabling remote management and zero-touch deployment.
Q11: What security features are included on this switch?
A: It includes enterprise-grade security features such as 802.1X authentication, MAC authentication, DHCP snooping, strict ARP inspection, port isolation, and ACL-based traffic filtering.
Q12: What are the physical dimensions and weight of the switch?
A: The switch has a standard 1U form factor, measuring 43.6 mm (H) × 442 mm (W) × 420 mm (D), with a total weight of 7.69 kg including packaging.
