SG500X-24P combines 24 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ access ports with four fixed 10G SFP+ interfaces in a rack-mount chassis. Two fiber-side interfaces can serve either uplink or stacking connections, so their assigned role affects the connections available to distribution. The Cisco 500X supports Layer 2+ functionality through static routing and RIP v2, alongside managed Ethernet switching for small-business networks. PoE+ accommodates powered phones, wireless access points and compatible cameras, while the fixed uplink architecture requires no removable network module. The discontinued SG500X-24 omits endpoint power, distinguishing the nearest non-PoE sibling. Hardware stacking combines eight members into one managed system, rather than merely grouping independent switches in a management interface.

128 Gbps switching capacity provides the switching fabric for copper access and fiber-side traffic. 95.24 Mpps forwarding handles minimum-size Ethernet packets without substituting an uplink speed for packet-processing capacity. A shared 375W PoE budget governs endpoint power allocation rather than granting every powered port its maximum simultaneously. Static routing and RIP v2 provide inter-network forwarding, while VRRP supports a redundant default-gateway arrangement. SG500X-24P carries 256 MB of memory and 32 MB of flash for its embedded software and configuration. The address table accommodates 16384 MAC entries, and the routing resources support 2048 IPv4 routes. Browser administration, a scriptable CLI and SNMP provide configuration and monitoring paths. STP, RSTP and MSTP control switching loops; LACP combines compatible Ethernet links. DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection provide controls against unauthorized addressing behavior.
Order SG500X-24P in new sealed or certified refurbished condition, specifying the required mounting hardware and link components on the PO. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed port links, clean boot, PoE output under load on every powered port and optics bay recognition; firmware is verified and configuration wiped to factory default. ORM Systems provides up to a 3-year extended warranty on new units, up to 1 year on certified refurbished units and 30-day returns on every condition; terms apply, and Cisco service has ended. PO purchasing, government Net-30 and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume orders, with regional stock and RMA coverage across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

In a large corporate campus environment deploying 200+ VoIP handsets and high-density 802.11ac wave 2 access points, the SG500X-24P delivers 24 ports of 30W PoE+ alongside four 10Gb stacking ports. IT teams can stack up to four switches into a single management instance, ensure uninterrupted power to mission-critical voice and Wi-Fi devices, and achieve predictable QoS across the LAN. Outcome: Streamlined power provisioning, simplified firmware upgrades and centralized monitoring reduce operational overhead by up to 40%, while guaranteeing high-availability voice and wireless services.
A regional retail chain rolls out 2–3 MP fixed and PTZ cameras across 50 locations, each requiring reliable PoE and high-throughput uplinks to a central NVR. The SG500X-24P supplies 370W total PoE budget, prioritizes video traffic through advanced QoS, and aggregates camera feeds over dual 10Gb stacking links to the core network. Outcome: Real-time, high-definition video capture with zero frame loss, faster incident response times, and consolidated management that scales with each new store rollout.
A mid-sized financial services branch installs the SG500X-24P as its primary switch to power IP phones, desktop PoE cameras and high-performance workstations. Four 10Gb SFP+ ports aggregate multiple SG500X-24P units to the regional data center, enabling 40Gb of backhaul capacity. With Cisco’s intuitive CLI and GUI, network administrators enforce VLAN segmentation, energy-saving schedules and real-time traffic analytics. Outcome: Enhanced network resiliency, simplified VLAN policy enforcement and up to 30% reduction in link-congestion incidents.
When adding phones alongside existing business endpoints, SG500X-24P supports automatic voice VLAN assignment and eight hardware queues for traffic prioritization. LLDP-MED supplies endpoint discovery information used by automatic port configuration. Before the PO, specify the voice VLAN policy, endpoint discovery requirements and the intended traffic-priority configuration.
When preparing replacement units before deployment, SG500X-24P supports dual firmware images and firmware transfer through HTTP/HTTPS, TFTP and SCP. Editable configuration files allow a common setup to be prepared for multiple units. Before the PO, identify the required firmware image, configuration baseline and transfer method for staging.
30W on every powered endpoint
SG500X-24P shares 375W across its powered ports, below the 720W required for 24 simultaneous 30W allocations. Specify a higher aggregate power budget when that requirement is mandatory.
Fanless operation in occupied rooms
SG500X-24P uses three fans with speed control rather than passive cooling. A purchase requiring fanless hardware needs a different switch; this chassis does not meet that requirement.
Active Cisco service coverage
SG500X-24P belongs to a retired switch series and no longer receives Cisco support. Select hardware with an active support lifecycle when Cisco service coverage is mandatory.

SG500X-24P identifies the Gigabit 500X switch configuration with 24 copper access ports and PoE+ endpoint power. The SG500X portion identifies the Gigabit switch group with 10-Gigabit interfaces, 24 identifies the access-port count, and P identifies the powered model. The complete configuration includes four SFP+ interfaces and a shared power budget.
SG500X-24P is managed through a web interface over HTTP or HTTPS, a CLI through SSH or Telnet, a serial console, and SNMP. The CLI supports scripted configuration, while the console provides direct access when network management is unavailable. Telnet is disabled by default and must be enabled before use.
No, SG500X-24P belongs to Cisco's retired 500 Series Stackable Managed switch family, which is no longer supported by Cisco. A functioning unit can remain in a legacy network, but retirement means Cisco service is no longer available. Purchasing decisions should distinguish continued hardware operation from an active manufacturer support lifecycle.
ORM Systems offers SG500X-24P new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty, or certified refurbished with up to a 1-year warranty. Both conditions have 30-day returns; terms apply. Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty has ended with manufacturer support. Certified refurbished units are inspected, bench-tested, firmware verified and wiped to factory default.
SG500X-24P provides a shared 375W PoE budget across 24 powered Gigabit ports, with PoE+ supporting a maximum 30W allocation per port. The aggregate budget prevents every port from receiving its maximum simultaneously. Size the purchase against endpoint power allocations, rather than treating the per-port maximum as available across all ports together.
Cisco 500X supports SFP-10G-SR for multimode fiber, SFP-10G-LR for single-mode fiber and SFP-10G-LRM for supported fiber links. SG500X-24P has four fixed SFP+ interfaces, with two also available for stacking. Select the transceiver PID to match the fiber installation and distance; SFP+ cages do not constitute removable uplink modules.
Cisco 500X hardware stacking supports eight members managed as one system. SG500X-24P can use SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M or SFP-H10GB-CU5M for supported direct-attach stack connections. Two interfaces share uplink and stacking roles, so stack topology and the remaining distribution connections must be planned together before specifying cable quantities.
SG500X-24P provides static routing and RIP v2, with VRRP available for default-gateway redundancy. Its IPv4 routing resources support 2048 routes, and routing interfaces can be associated with physical ports, link aggregation groups, VLAN interfaces or loopbacks. Static IPv6 routing is also supported, separate from the RIP v2 IPv4 routing function.
SG500X-24P supplies PoE+ endpoint power, while SG500X-24 does not provide PoE. Both configurations have 24 Gigabit copper access ports and four 10G SFP+ interfaces. Both models are discontinued: SG500X-24P addresses powered-endpoint legacy replacements, whereas SG500X-24 addresses like-for-like replacements where connected devices receive power separately.
SG500X-24P has a 375W PoE budget, whereas SG500X-24MPP has a 740W budget across the same 24 powered access ports. Both models are discontinued and retain the same access-port density. SG500X-24P addresses lower aggregate endpoint allocations; SG500X-24MPP addresses legacy configurations requiring a larger shared power allocation.
SG500X-24P has 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, while SG500X-48P has 48, doubling the copper endpoint connections in the latter model. Both models are discontinued. SG500X-24P addresses like-for-like replacements for smaller legacy connection counts; SG500X-48P addresses existing installations requiring the larger access-port count in one chassis.
Yes, SG500X-24P is a full-width rack-mount switch with a 440 mm-wide chassis and 44 mm height. Its depth is 350 mm and its weight is 5.25 kg. Installation hardware accompanies the original package, so specify the required mounting hardware when ordering a replacement unit for an existing rack.
