FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the MS355-24X2 and MS355-24X models?
A: The MS355-24X2 features 24 full multi-gigabit ports capable of 10G speeds on all ports, while the MS355-24X has 8 multi-gig ports (100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G) and 16 standard gigabit ports. Both offer the same PoE budget, uplink options, and stacking capabilities.

Q: Can I use both 10G SFP+ and 40G QSFP+ uplinks simultaneously?
A: No, the uplink configuration is either 4x 10G SFP+ or 2x 40G QSFP+. The uplink ports are shared, so you choose one configuration based on your aggregation layer requirements.

Q: Does this switch require a Meraki license to operate?
A: Yes, the MS355-24X2-HW requires a valid Meraki Enterprise license subscription for operation. The license enables cloud management, Layer 3 routing features, and advanced security capabilities through the Meraki Dashboard.

Q: How many switches can be stacked together?
A: Meraki MS355 switches support physical stacking using the dedicated 100G QSFP28 stacking ports. Up to 8 switches can be stacked together, providing a combined switching capacity and simplified management as a single logical unit.

Q: Is this switch suitable for powering Wi-Fi 6E access points?
A: Absolutely. The MS355-24X2 is specifically designed for next-generation wireless deployments, with multi-gigabit ports that support the bandwidth requirements of Wi-Fi 6/6E APs and up to 60W PoE++ per port to power demanding access points and other high-power PoE devices.
