This SKU is the S6500-48G6XF bundled with 1 year of Omada Device Support from TP-Link. The hardware is identical to the standalone S6500-48G6XF.

The Omada Campus S6500-48G6XF is a 48-port Gigabit stackable L3 managed switch with six 10G SFP+ slots and two internal power supplies, built for dense access or distribution layers on a campus or multi-building site. It carries full L3 routing and stacks with matching units for a single logical switch.

Built for dense campus access and distribution

Any of the six SFP+ slots can serve as an uplink or a stacking port, with up to 120 Gbps of stack bandwidth. L3 features include OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, VRRP, PIM and ECMP, and security covers 802.1X, MACsec, secure boot and DHCP snooping. Manage it from an Omada or Omada Pro controller, or standalone through the web UI, CLI and NETCONF.

Key features

  • Six 1/10G SFP+ slots: uplinks or stacking ports, up to 120 Gbps of stack bandwidth
  • Physical stacking: up to 12 units standalone, 4 in Omada controller mode
  • L3 routing: OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, VRRP, PIM, ECMP and policy-based routing
  • Two internal power supplies: redundant input from the built-in modules
  • MACsec and secure boot: link encryption and a verified boot chain
  • Zero-touch provisioning: through an Omada or Omada Pro cloud-based controller

System requirements

Centralized management needs an Omada or Omada Pro Cloud-Based, Hardware or Software Controller; zero-touch provisioning needs the cloud-based controller. Without a controller the switch runs standalone from its web interface, CLI and NETCONF. SFP+ modules and DAC cables are sold separately.

FAQs

Does the S6500-48G6XF have PoE?
No. It has 48 Gigabit RJ45 ports with no PoE output. The S6500-48GP6XF is the PoE+ version in this family.
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, not 1G SFP modules.
Does it have redundant power?
Yes. It has two internal fixed power supply modules. They are built in, not field-replaceable.
Which controllers can manage it?
TP-Link lists Omada and Omada Pro Cloud-Based, Hardware and Software Controllers. Zero-touch provisioning needs a cloud-based controller.
Can it route between VLANs?
Yes. It is a full L3 switch with static routes, OSPF, RIP, IS-IS, BGP and VRRP, so it can route between VLANs at the distribution layer.
