HPE 5500-24G-4SFP 24-port Layer 3 network switch

SKU CH-JS3W-MMGPN MPN 5500-24G-4SFP

A 24-port Layer 3 switch with four SFP and two SFP+ expansion slots in a 1U rack-mountable chassis

  • Switch TypeLayer 3 Switch
  • Layer 3 routing manages traffic across complex networks
  • 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports connect wired devices directly
  • 4 SFP plus 2 SFP+ slots add fibre uplinks
  • Redundant power supply support keeps the switch running during failures
  • 1U rack-mountable form factor saves rack space

Layer 3 switch with 24 Gigabit ports

The HPE 5500-24G-4SFP is a rack-mountable Layer 3 switch that provides 24 fixed Gigabit Ethernet ports using 10/100/1000Base-T connections. It includes four SFP slots and two SFP+ slots for fibre uplinks or additional copper modules. The unit fits a 1U space and supports redundant power supplies for improved availability.

Suited for managed aggregation without PoE

This switch suits network teams that need a manageable Layer 3 core or distribution device with modular uplink flexibility but do not require Power over Ethernet on the RJ-45 ports. Buyers who need PoE to run phones, cameras or access points directly from the switch should look at a model that includes that capability.

Uplink flexibility decided by four SFP

The single specification that determines fit is the uplink configuration: four Gigabit SFP slots plus two 10 Gigabit SFP+ slots alongside the 24 fixed copper ports. If your design calls for a different mix of fibre speeds or a higher count of 10G uplinks, this chassis will not match that requirement.

Questions about this item

How many SFP+ slots does the 5500-24G-4SFP have for 10G uplinks?

The switch provides two SFP+ slots that accept 10 Gigabit Ethernet transceivers for high-speed uplinks or stacking.

What is the power draw and fan noise like when the unit runs continuously in a 1U rack?

The switch uses an internal power supply and supports a redundant power supply; it operates in a standard 1U form factor.

Which transceivers or cables must I already own to use the four SFP and two SFP+ ports?

The four SFP slots take Gigabit Ethernet SFP modules and the two SFP+ slots take 10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+ modules.
