48x gigabit Ethernet, 4x SFP+

The switch is equipped with 48 gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 4 SFP+ slots (10 Gbps). It has a switching capacity of 176 Gbps and a packet forwarding rate of 131 Mpps. The SFP+ slots provide high-speed connectivity (up to 10 Gbps), allowing for the connection of multiple network segments or high-performance devices such as servers.

Layer 2 management

The device provides numerous Layer 2 management features, such as VLAN support, multicast handling (IGMP Snooping), Quality of Service (QoS) functions, and Access Control Lists (ACLs). It supports Spanning Tree protocols (STP/RSTP/MSTP) as well as the modern ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) standard defined in the ITU-T G.8032 standard.

The switch provides essential network security measures. It protects against DoS attacks such as SYN flood, Land, Smurf, and ICMP flood. Additionally, it includes protection against attacks targeting users, such as DHCP server attacks, IP/MAC spoofing, DHCP request flood, and DHCP CHADDR attacks.

Management is conducted through the graphical Web interface, CLI, or using SNMP (v1, v2c, v3) / SSHv2.0. Devices from the S220 series can also be managed in the cloud, and in this case, you can additionally use the Huawei eKit app.

Usage

The primary use of the S220-48T4X is as an access switch in locations where PoE is not required. It is best suited for networks based on eKitEngine solutions, as using devices from the same series simplifies configuration and subsequent management. In larger networks, the S220-48T4X can also serve as an aggregation switch, acting as an intermediary between the core switch and access switches.
