Edimax Pro GS-5424PLX switch inteligente Gigabit PoE+ de 24 puertos con 4x uplinks 10G SFP+, presupuesto 400W, gestión L2+, montaje en rack

The GS-5424PLX stands out by combining 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports with four 10-Gigabit SFP+ uplinks and a generous 400W power budget in a single 1U rack unit. Unlike many smart switches that force a trade-off between port density, PoE capacity, and high-speed uplinks, this model delivers all three, making it a practical backbone for modern IP surveillance, wireless access point deployments, and converged networks.

Highlights

• 24× 10/100/1000Base-T ports with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30W per port)
• Total PoE budget of 400W for power-hungry devices such as pan-tilt-zoom cameras and Wi-Fi 6 access points
• 4× 10-Gigabit SFP+ uplink ports for high-speed aggregation or server connectivity
• 128 Gbps switching capacity and 95.23 Mpps forwarding rate for non-blocking performance
• Advanced Layer 2+ features: VLAN, QoS, link aggregation, spanning tree, and robust security
• Smart fan design with variable speed for quieter operation and improved energy efficiency

In daily use

Deploying the GS-5424PLX is straightforward thanks to its intuitive web-based GUI and full CLI support via Telnet or SSH. Network administrators can segment traffic with 802.1Q VLANs, prioritise voice and video using QoS, and safeguard the network with DHCP snooping, IP source guard, and ARP inspection. The four SFP+ uplinks eliminate bottlenecks when connecting to a core switch or NAS, while the 16K MAC address table easily handles medium-sized networks. Jumbo frame support up to 9KB improves throughput for large file transfers, and IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces power consumption during low activity.
