Description

The Meraki MS355-48X-HW is a cloud-managed Layer 3 access switch designed for high-density enterprise and campus networks supporting Wi-Fi 6/6E deployments. It delivers 48 ports total with 16 multi-gigabit ports supporting up to 10Gbps and 32 Gigabit Ethernet ports, plus 740W PoE++ budget for powering access points, cameras, and IP phones. Hardware stacking via 100G QSFP28 ports enables up to 8 units with 400 Gbps bandwidth, while zero-touch provisioning and cloud-based management eliminate complex CLI configuration.

FAQs

Q: What are the multi-gigabit ports used for?
A: The 16 mGig ports auto-negotiate speeds from 100Mbps up to 10Gbps, making them ideal for Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, high-performance servers, and workstations requiring bandwidth beyond standard Gigabit Ethernet.

Q: Does this switch require a license to operate?
A: Yes, Meraki switches require an Enterprise or Advanced Security license subscription for cloud management and operation. Licenses are sold separately from the hardware.

Q: Can I stack multiple MS355-48X switches together?
A: Yes, up to 8 MS355 switches can be stacked using the dedicated 100G QSFP28 stacking ports, providing 400 Gbps of stacking bandwidth for unified management and forwarding across the stack.

Q: What PoE power delivery is supported per port?
A: Standard 1GbE ports support up to 30W PoE+, while the 16 mGig ports support up to 60W UPoE (PoE++), with intelligent power budgeting across the 740W total budget using CDP and LLDP.

Q: Is Layer 3 routing available on this model?
A: Yes, the MS355-48X includes full Layer 3 routing capabilities with OSPF, static routing, inter-VLAN routing, DHCP server/relay, and VRRP for redundancy.
