FAQ

Q1: What are the main features of the Huawei S5735-L48T4S-A?

The Huawei S5735-L48T4S-A features 48 Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports and 4 GE SFP optical uplink ports. It supports Layer 3 networking, VLAN management, QoS, ACL, and various routing protocols, making it suitable for enterprise access networks.

Q2: Does the Huawei S5735-L48T4S-A support PoE?

No. The S5735-L48T4S-A is a non-PoE switch.

If your network requires power delivery to IP phones, wireless access points, or surveillance cameras through Ethernet cables, consider a PoE model such as the Huawei S5735-L48P4S-A or S5735-L48LP4S-A, after checking the exact power requirements.

Q3: What is the difference between S5735-L48T4S-A and S5735-L48T4X-A?

The primary difference is their uplink interface configuration.

Recommendation: Choose the S5735-L48T4S-A for standard Gigabit fiber uplinks. Choose the S5735-L48T4X-A if your network requires 10 Gigabit uplink bandwidth.

Q4: Which optical modules are compatible with the S5735-L48T4S-A?

The four GE SFP ports can support compatible 1000BASE-X optical modules, depending on the transmission distance, fiber type, wavelength, and software version.

Common options include:

• 1000BASE-SX SFP multimode optical modules.

• 1000BASE-LX SFP single-mode optical modules.

• 1000BASE-BX BiDi optical modules.

• Compatible GE CWDM and DWDM optical modules.

Always verify Huawei compatibility and the required optical specifications before purchasing.

Q5: Can the S5735-L48T4S-A be used as a Layer 3 switch?

Yes. The switch supports Layer 3 routing functions, including static routing and dynamic routing protocols such as OSPF and RIP, depending on the installed software version.

Q6: What should buyers check before purchasing?

Before purchasing the Huawei S5735-L48T4S-A, buyers should confirm:

1. Whether 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports meet their network requirements.

2. Whether 4 GE SFP uplinks provide sufficient bandwidth.
