Compatibility & Buying Information
Gigabit Access Ports: The ECS1552FP provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports. It is designed for high-density Gigabit access deployments rather than 2.5GbE or higher-speed copper edge connectivity.
PoE+ Support: All 48 RJ45 ports support IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE+, allowing compatible wireless access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and other powered devices to receive network connectivity and electrical power over the same Ethernet cable.
740W PoE Budget: The large 740W total power budget is designed for deployments with many simultaneously connected PoE devices. The combined power requirements of all connected devices must remain within the available PoE budget.
10G Fiber Uplinks: Four SFP+ interfaces provide high-speed uplinks to aggregation switches, servers, storage systems, and fiber backbones. Compatible SFP+ transceivers or DAC cables are required separately.
PoE Extended Mode: Supported hardware versions can extend PoE Ethernet deployment distances up to approximately 250 meters for applications such as surveillance cameras positioned beyond standard Ethernet distances.
Layer 2+ Positioning: The ECS1552FP combines advanced Layer 2 switching with IPv4 and IPv6 static routing. Networks requiring advanced dynamic routing protocols should use an appropriate full Layer 3 switching platform.
Management Options: The ECS1552FP supports centralized EnGenius Cloud management as well as standalone local administration for different network deployment requirements.
Best Fit: The ECS1552FP is well suited for high-density business networks that need 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports, a large 740W power budget, and four 10G fiber uplinks for access points, surveillance cameras, phones, and other powered network devices.
