This SKU is the S6500-48GP6XF bundled with 1 year of Omada Device Support from TP-Link. The hardware is identical to the standalone S6500-48GP6XF.

The Omada Pro S6500-48GP6XF is a 48-port Gigabit stackable L3 managed PoE+ switch with six 10G SFP+ slots and hot-swappable power supplies, built for dense campus closets full of cameras, access points and phones. The PoE budget grows with the power supply modules, up to 1,440 W.

Built for dense powered campus access

Every RJ45 port delivers 802.3af/at PoE+ at up to 30 W, with Perpetual PoE keeping devices powered through a switch reboot. The six SFP+ slots serve as uplinks or stacking ports, and L3 features include OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, VRRP, PIM and ECMP. Manage it from an Omada Pro controller or standalone through the web UI and CLI.

Key features

  • Up to 1,440 W across 48 PoE+ ports: 764 W on the included PSM900-AC, more with a second module
  • Perpetual and Fast PoE: devices stay powered through a switch reboot
  • Six 1/10G SFP+ slots: uplinks or stacking ports for up to 12 units standalone
  • L3 routing: OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, VRRP, PIM, ECMP and policy-based routing
  • Hot-swappable power and fans: N+1 redundant, field-replaceable modules
  • MACsec and secure boot: link encryption and a verified boot chain

System requirements

Centralized management needs an Omada Pro Cloud-Based, Hardware or Software Controller; zero-touch provisioning needs the cloud-based controller. Ships with one PSM900-AC; a second module is sold separately. Powered devices must be 802.3af or 802.3at compliant.

FAQs

How big is the PoE budget?
It depends on the power supply modules: 764 W with the PSM900-AC it ships with and up to 1,440 W with two PSM900-AC. Each port delivers up to 30 W.
Is a second power supply included?
No. It ships with one PSM900-AC. A second hot-swappable module for more budget and N+1 redundancy is sold separately. PSM500-AC also works.
Does it support Perpetual PoE?
Yes. TP-Link lists Fast PoE and Perpetual PoE, so cameras and APs keep power through a switch reboot.
How many switches can it stack?
Up to 12 in standalone mode and 4 in Omada controller mode, using the SFP+ slots. Stacking needs 10G DAC or SFP+ modules.
Which controller manages it?
TP-Link lists the Omada Pro Cloud-Based, Hardware and Software Controllers. Zero-touch provisioning needs the cloud-based controller.
