AL3500A12-E6 - Avaya ERS 3550T-PWR+ 50-Port Ethernet Switch

Product Description

The Avaya ERS 3550T-PWR+, identified by SKU AL3500A12-E6, is a high-performance, fully managed Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for demanding enterprise network environments. It offers 48 x 10/100/1000Base-T ports, providing high-speed connectivity for a wide range of devices. A key feature is its robust Power over Ethernet (PoE+) support, compliant with IEEE 802.3at, which allows it to deliver significantly more power per port compared to standard PoE, enabling the operation of high-power devices like advanced wireless access points, pan-tilt-zoom security cameras, and video conferencing systems. The inclusion of two SFP+ 10GbE uplink ports ensures high-bandwidth connectivity to the network core or aggregation layer. With a substantial switching capacity of 136 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 101.2 Mpps, this switch is engineered to handle large volumes of traffic efficiently, making it suitable for data-intensive applications and high-density deployments. It supports advanced features such as IEEE 802.1Q VLANs for network segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS) for traffic prioritization, and various security features to protect the network. The 3550T-PWR+ series also typically supports physical stacking, allowing multiple switches to be managed as a single logical unit, simplifying management and increasing port density. Management of the AL3500A12-E6 is comprehensive, offering a web-based GUI, command-line interface (CLI), and SNMP support, providing network administrators with flexible options for configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting. This switch is an ideal solution for organizations looking for a powerful, feature-rich access or aggregation layer switch that can support high-density Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, advanced PoE capabilities, and high-speed uplinks, all while offering robust management and scalability options.
