Managed Switch Lancom Systems GS-4554XP L3 2.5G Ethernet 54 Ports PoE

The Managed Switch LANCOM GS-4554XP is a 1U rack-mountable Layer 3 switch with 54 Ethernet ports, including 12x 2.5G multi-Gigabit PoE+ ports and 36x Gigabit PoE+ ports, plus 4 SFP+ and 2 QSFP+ FleX ports for 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps uplinks. With a backplane throughput of 372 Gbps and a MAC address table sized for large enterprise environments, the GS-4554XP is designed as a high-performance access and aggregation switch for modern network infrastructures.

Advantages

The GS-4554XP delivers wirespeed forwarding across 54 ports and supports full Layer 3 routing with OSPF for dynamic route management. It provides centralized Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af/at) with a PoE budget of up to 1,440 W when both PSUs are used, and features hot-swappable redundant power supplies and an N+1 fan concept for hardware redundancy. Additional benefits include front-to-back ventilation for rack deployment, LANCOM fail-safe stacking for up to eight switches, and secure remote management via SSH, SSL, SNMPv3 and TACACS+.

Suitable for

• Enterprise access layer for Wi‑Fi 6 deployments (supporting up to 12 high-performance APs on 2.5G ports)
• Aggregation and distribution in meshed campus networks with dynamic routing
• Multi-site environments requiring centralized PoE power and cloud-managed stacks
• Server rooms and 19" racks where front-to-back airflow and 1U density are required

Key specifications

How to use

Mount the GS-4554XP in a standard 19" rack and connect uplinks via the SFP+/QSFP+ FleX ports for 10 Gbps or 40 Gbps aggregation. Connect PoE endpoints such as Wi‑Fi 6 access points, VoIP phones or cameras to the RJ‑45 ports; the switch will supply power according to IEEE 802.3af/at automatically up to the configured PoE budget. Use the LANCOM Management Cloud or the device’s management interfaces (SSH, SSL, SNMPv3, TACACS+) to assign configurations, VLANs and routing policies. For high availability, install two PSUs and enable fail-safe stacking when combining multiple switches.

Recommendations

For deployments with multiple Wi‑Fi 6 access points, allocate the 2.5G PoE+ ports first to APs with the highest throughput requirements and monitor the total PoE consumption to ensure the combined connected devices do not exceed the available PoE budget. Use fail-safe stacking and redundant PSUs in critical environments to minimize downtime.
