Description

The FlexNetwork 5520 HI is a fixed-port Layer 3 managed Ethernet switch built for enterprise access and aggregation deployments that need fibre-based 1G connectivity with 10G uplinks. It suits designs that call for Layer 3 routing and resilient, IRF-stacked topologies.

This model provides 24 Gigabit SFP ports, 8 of which are shared as combo ports with 10/100/1000BASE-T, plus 4 x 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks and one expansion slot. Switching is non-blocking at wire speed, with 180 Mpps throughput and a MAC address table of up to 64K entries. The 1U chassis has two power supply slots and two fan tray slots, and this is the CTO configuration. It is a non-PoE switch.

It accepts 1G SFP and 10G SFP+ optics and DAC cables, and Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) lets up to nine units operate as one logical switch. Management is available through HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) and the embedded SmartMC web-based tool.
