Benefits
Easy Deployment and Management
The S5300 Series Campus Network Switches support CLI command line and WEB management for convenient management and deployment.
High-Reliability
S5300 Series network switch supports LACP, BFD, MSTP, ERPS, VRRP, ISSU, STP, RSTP, and EAPS for high reliability, and supports redundant 1+1 power backup and static/LACP link aggregation, as well as cross-service card link aggregation.
Optimize Network Performance
S5300 Series network switch can achieve higher switching capacity at a lower cost than other switches, microsecond delay and lower recovery time.
Hardware and Software Features
The hardware and software of QT S5300 Series Campus Network Switches are designed for higher reliability and a smarter network, enabling customers to build the next-generation campus network based on business requirements.
Hardware
QT S5300 Series switches are Layer 3 switches with a 1U profile and are suitable for most racks that require high density. Each switch in this series has an abundant port design and a wide variety of ports can make the switch meet various business needs of customers.
Among S5300 Series switches, 48M6X, 24S8T6X, 24T6X, and 48T6X are equipped with 1 +1 AC hot-swappable power supply to ensure uninterrupted operation of switches and improve system availability. Except for S5300-24P4TS, S5300-24T4S, S5300-24T4X, and S5300-8T2S, other switches are equipped with two intelligent fans, which ensure good heat dissipation and ensure the stability and reliability of the communication system.
S5300-24P4TS, S5300-24T4S, S5300-24T4X, and S5300-8T2S are fanless and designed for sensitive environments such as libraries, offices, hotels, etc., offering a device that runs silently.
Software
IPv6 Function
S5300 series ethernet switches support IPv6 routing protocols, including IPv6 neighbor discovery, ICMPv6 and Path MTU discovery, IPv6 multicast with MLD and MLD Snooping support. Among them, 24T4S, 24P4TS, 24T4X, 24P4X, 8T2S and 16S8TS4X also support IPv4/IPv6 dual stacks, which can be flexibly deployed in IPv4 networks, IPv6 networks or IPv4/IPv6 shared networks.
Stacking Function
Except for 24T4S, 24P4TS, and 8T2S, most S5300 series network switches support stacking functions. Multiple switches can be stacked by stacking cables, and after stacking, other stacking devices can be managed by one master device for convenient management.
Strong security performance
S5300 series network switch supports IEEE 802.1X, and unidentified or unauthorized users can be prevented from receiving and transmitting data. It also supports QoS(Quality of Service), DCHP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), RADIUS(Remote Authentication Dial In User Service), and other security protocols to ensure your data security.
S5300 Series Application
S5300 series network switches provide more than 24 RJ45 ports, except S5300-8T2S. It means the single switch can provide more than 24 access points and a lot of number of users. S5300 Layer 2 switch and Layer 3 switch support more additional features, It can be based on your business demand, giving you the best choice of devices.
Access Layer
S5300 series network switches provide multiple RJ45 ports and can be connected to multiple devices that support RJ45 ports, such as IP cameras, IP Phones, APs, printers, etc. It also offers a fanless design and a PoE switch, which can be used for devices that need to be kept quiet or far away from the power supply. The total power budget of 370W can make it provide the required power for multiple devices.
Aggregation Layer
Some S5300 series network switches can be used at the aggregation layer, such as S5300-48T6X and S5300-48T4X. They provide 48x1G RJ45 ports and 6x10G SFP+ uplinks. In practical application, the 24P4TS PoE switch supplies power to devices like PCs and monitors, then connects to 48T4X, and connects to S7300-48X2Q4C through the uplink, to build a 3-layer network architecture, which can better control while ensuring good scalability the network scale and network quality are also convenient for network management and maintenance. The 3 layer network architecture can also better protect data security.
Conclusion
This article mainly introduces the differences, benefits, and specific applications of the S5300 series network switches. QT's 5300 series Ethernet switches include a Layer 2 switch and Layer 3 switch. When you need to order a switch, you need to consider your specific usage scenario, required bandwidth capacity, and transmission rate to choose the right product, for example, fanless, PoE switches, and stacking switches.
