DATA SHEET3Com® Switch 5500G 10/100/1000 FamilyPremium stackableGigabit switches delivermaximum security,convergence featuresand intelligencerequired by the mostdemanding advancedenterprise networksOVERVIEWThe 3Com ® Switch 5500G 10/100/1000 Family delivers premium levelsof performance, security and reliability for robust switching at theenterprise network edge. The family consists of Layer 2/3/4 GigabitEthernet and Power over Ethernet switches, with advanced featuresthat can accommodate the most demanding applications, offeringresilient and secure connectivity and the latest traffic-prioritizationtechnologies to optimize applications on converged networks. Designedfor maximum flexibility and scalability, 3Com Switch 5500G models comewith 24 or 48 Gigabit ports, and offer optional modules for 10-Gigabitand SFP Gigabit uplink connections.The switches can be stacked up to eight units high using patented3Com XRN® (eXpandable Resilient Networking) technology. One XRNstack can provide up to 448 Gigabit Ethernet ports, with 96 Gbpsresilient stacking bandwidth, all centrally managed, with high-endenterprise chassis-class availability.Further expansion is possible via clustered stacking technology, allowingsingle IP management for up to 32 devices from different 3Com switchfamilies, including the Switch 5500G, 5500, 4500G, 4210 and 4200G.KEY BENEFITSENTERPRISE-LEVEL PERFORMANCE3Com Switch 5500G 10/100/1000 devices provide switching capacityof up to 240 Gbps for 48-port models and 192 Gbps for 24-port models.Wirespeed line-rate performance is delivered on all ports within thestack. Advanced Layer 3 routing—including OSPF, PIM-SM, PIM-DMand RIP v1/v2—helps deliver optimal performance and system response.BUILT FOR FLEXIBILITY AND GROWTHThe 3Com Switch 5500G family consists of five models: choose 24 or 48Gigabit ports, with or without PoE; a fifth SFP model offers 24 SFPGigabit ports. Four ports on each of these models are dual-purpose or“dual-personality,” functioning as either 10/100/1000 or with fiberGigabit SFPs; two of these four SFP ports also support Fast Ethernet fiber.All models come with an applications module slot for adding portsor capabilities. Install an 8-Port SFP Gigabit module, or a 1- or 2-port10-Gigabit module. Use this in the future to add a 3Com Open ServicesNetworking (OSN) module.from top: 3Com Switch 5500G-EI 24-Port, Switch 5500G-EI PWR 24-Port,Switch 5500G-EI 48-Port, Switch 5500G-EI PWR 48-Port, Switch 5500G-EI 24-Port SFP
