MS150-48LP-4X-HW Overview

MS150-48LP-4X-HW is a cloud-managed Layer 2+ access switch for buyers who need dense PoE+ copper access with fixed 10G uplinks. It provides 48 1G RJ-45 access ports, four fixed 10G SFP+ uplink ports, a 370W shared PoE budget, and an integrated 1U rack-mount chassis in the Cisco Meraki MS150 series. The fixed uplink design avoids separate network-module selection and gives procurement a hardware SKU that already includes the uplink interface type at purchase. Meraki Dashboard provides centralized configuration, monitoring, firmware management, packet capture, SNMP/Syslog integration, IPv4/IPv6 ACLs, 802.1Q VLAN tagging, 802.1X authentication, DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP Inspection, Adaptive Policy, and broadcast storm control for access-layer operations. The closest higher-power sibling is MS150-48FP-4X, which keeps the same 48 1G RJ-45 and four 10G SFP+ port layout but raises the PoE budget from 370W to 740W.

176 Gbps switching capacity delivers non-blocking fabric for the fixed access and uplink layout. 130.9 Mpps forwarding rate is derived from the documented switching capacity using the standard 64-byte line-rate calculation because the manufacturer material does not publish a separate packet-forwarding value. 370W shared PoE budget supports mixed powered endpoint loads where the 30W per-port budget is allocated across phones, cameras, access points, and edge devices rather than reserved at full draw on every port. Static routing adds limited routed access behavior without positioning the platform as a full campus distribution router. MS150-48LP-4X-HW uses a dedicated management interface and Meraki cloud check-in workflow, so administrators claim the serial number or order number, add the switch to a Dashboard network, set firmware policy, and apply port configuration remotely. Its 100-240V AC input and fixed internal power supply simplify standard rack power planning. Perpetual PoE and Fast PoE keep power behavior aligned with endpoint recovery requirements during access closet maintenance.

Enterprise access closets use MS150-48LP-4X-HW to connect workstations, phones, cameras, printers, wireless access points, and IoT devices before forwarding traffic toward distribution through fiber or DAC uplinks. Dedicated stack ports provide 80 Gbps stacking bandwidth with MA-CBL-100G-50CM, MA-CBL-100G-1M, or MA-CBL-100G-3M cables, while the 1U chassis preserves rack space across repeated closet builds. ORM Systems supplies this switch new and certified refurbished for refresh projects, break-fix replacement, and multi-site rollouts. Refurbished units are tested for PoE output, RJ-45 link status, SFP+ recognition, Dashboard readiness, and physical condition before dispatch. UK and international shipping options support urgent replacements and planned rollouts. Volume orders are aligned by condition grade, accessory bundle, and delivery window so staged access refreshes receive consistent stock across sites. Request a quote with license term, power cord region, optics, stacking cable requirements, and quantity so enterprise and volume buyers receive hardware aligned to the deployment schedule.

MS150-48LP-4X-HW Use Case

Powered Access Closet Edge

MS150-48LP-4X-HW sits in a wiring closet and terminates copper runs from phones, workstations, cameras, printers, and access points on 48 Gigabit RJ45 PoE+ ports. Engineers place VLAN assignments, 802.1X authentication, ACLs, DHCP snooping, and Dynamic ARP Inspection at the access layer, then reserve the 370W PoE budget for endpoints that require switch power. Four 10G SFP+ uplinks carry northbound traffic to distribution. The access closet gains dense powered endpoint handoff with Meraki Dashboard visibility over port state, firmware, and packet capture.

Stacked Access Block Expansion

Several MS150 switches form a physical access stack when a closet needs more than 48 powered copper ports under one operational view. MS150-48LP-4X-HW contributes 48 1G PoE+ ports, four 10G SFP+ uplinks, two dedicated stack ports, and 80 Gbps stacking bandwidth to that block. Engineers cable compatible MA-CBL-100G stacking leads, build the stack in Meraki Dashboard, and align VLANs, access policies, and uplink trunks across members. The closet gains higher endpoint density while preserving shared management and predictable uplink design.

Cloud-Managed Branch Distribution Handoff

The switch anchors a branch access layer and forwards aggregated endpoint traffic toward distribution or WAN edge equipment through four 10G SFP+ uplinks. Engineers connect MA-SFP-10GB-SR, MA-SFP-10GB-LR, or DAC uplink media according to the fiber plant, then configure trunks, static routing, and monitoring in Meraki Dashboard. The 176 Gbps switching capacity supports the 48 copper access ports and uplink group in the same access role. The branch gains centralized operations, faster remote troubleshooting, and a cleaner handoff from powered endpoints to upstream network services.
