SG550XG-48T is a managed, non-PoE Layer 2+ switch with 46 dedicated 10GBase-T access ports and two fixed 10G copper/SFP+ combo uplinks in a rack-mount 1U chassis. Each combo interface uses either its copper connection or its SFP+ connection, so fiber links share those uplink positions rather than adding separate ports. The Cisco 550X Series targets small-business networks connecting servers, storage devices, and other independently powered equipment. Hardware stacking lets multiple chassis operate as one managed system without a removable uplink module. The discontinued SG550XG-24T has 24 copper connections instead of 48. This 10GBase-T stackable managed switch combines copper endpoint density with fixed fiber connectivity; select uplink media alongside the endpoint port allocation.

960 Gbps switching capacity supports nonblocking forwarding across the available interfaces. 714.24 Mpps forwarding at 64-byte packets establishes the packet-rate limit for small-frame traffic. Static routing and RIP v2 provide inter-VLAN and dynamic IPv4 routing, while PBR controls next-hop selection and VRRP supports redundant default gateways. The routing resources accommodate 7168 IPv4 routes and 256 IP interfaces, keeping address-plan scale distinct from physical port density. SG550XG-48T carries 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for switch software and configuration storage. STP, RSTP, and MSTP manage Layer 2 topology, and LACP supports aggregated links. The web interface and Textview CLI provide administration, with SNMP supporting network-management integration. Internal power-supply redundancy is unavailable; RPS2300 provides an external redundancy option. Five fans provide cooling with one redundant fan, so rack airflow planning remains necessary alongside electrical provisioning.
SG550XG-48T is offered new sealed or certified refurbished; refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for rated-speed port links and optics bay recognition, with firmware verified and configuration wiped to factory default. Specify condition, regional power requirements, and accessory quantities on the purchase order. ORM warranties cover new units for up to a 3-year extended term and certified refurbished units for up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on every condition, terms apply; Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty and service ended June 30, 2025. Enterprise and volume orders accept POs, Net-30 for government, and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA across UK, EU, US, and MEA.

During server and storage consolidation, the 4 MB packet buffer is shared across all ports rather than reserved per connection. The switch also supports iSCSI traffic prioritization. Map simultaneous storage flows and burst behavior before selecting quantities, and include traffic-profile validation in the purchase specification.
When extending an existing hardware stack, the intended ring or chain topology determines which interfaces must be reserved for inter-switch links. Link aggregation can also form stacking interconnects. Identify the existing stack layout, planned connection paths, and occupied interfaces before specifying the additional chassis and connection accessories.
For a lab or staged rollout, dual software images and the front-panel USB connection support image and configuration handling before production installation. Prepare the intended software image and saved configuration for the receiving environment, then specify the bench-validation tasks and required console access before issuing the purchase order.
Endpoint power through Ethernet
SG550XG-48T does not supply PoE, so phones, cameras, and access points requiring Ethernet power need a separate power source. Specify external power rather than allocating a switch PoE budget.
Independent copper and fiber uplinks
SG550XG-48T shares its two SFP+ uplinks with two copper ports, preventing simultaneous use of both media on those interfaces. Separate copper and fiber uplinks exceed this configuration.
Internally redundant power supplies
SG550XG-48T uses external RPS2300 power redundancy rather than dual internal supplies. Include RPS2300 in the power design when external redundancy is acceptable; dual internal power supplies are not available.
Ongoing Cisco hardware support
SG550XG-48T passed its last support date on June 30, 2025. Its announced replacement chain also ends with a discontinued model and no current migration product.

SG550XG-48T identifies a Cisco 550X Series 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch: SG550XG is the model family, 48 denotes the copper connection count, and T identifies 10GBase-T copper connectivity. The configuration also includes two shared SFP+ interfaces and a separate Gigabit management port.
SG550XG-48T supports management through the HTTP/HTTPS web interface, Textview CLI over console or SSH/Telnet, SNMP, Smart Network Application, Cisco FindIT Network Manager, and Active Advisor. An embedded FindIT Network Probe supports network-level management. A dedicated Gigabit management port separates administration from the switching interfaces.
SG550XG-48T is discontinued: end of sale was June 18, 2020, and Cisco support ended June 30, 2025. Software maintenance stopped June 18, 2021. New sealed inventory does not restart these milestones, so purchases must be planned without ongoing Cisco service or software maintenance.
ORM Systems offers SG550XG-48T new sealed with up to a 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Both conditions have 30-day returns, terms apply. Refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested. Cisco's original limited lifetime hardware warranty and service ended June 30, 2025.
SG550XG-48T does not provide PoE on its Ethernet ports. Phones, cameras, and wireless access points that require power through their network cable therefore need a separate power source. The switch supplies data connectivity, so endpoint power must be specified independently when preparing the equipment order.
SG550XG-48T supports SFP-10G-SR and SFP-10G-SR-S for multimode fiber, plus SFP-10G-LR and SFP-10G-LR-S for single-mode fiber. The single-mode choices reach 10 km; multimode reach depends on the fiber. Both SFP+ interfaces share copper connections, so confirm media selection and transceiver quantities before ordering.
SG550XG-48T supports hardware stacks of eight members, including mixed SF550X, SG550X, SG550XG, and SX550X models. Ring and chain arrangements are supported. Stacking uses 10G copper or fiber interfaces; SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M, and SFP-H10GB-CU5M provide copper interconnect options. Reserve the required interfaces when specifying the stack.
SG550XG-48T supports static IPv4/IPv6 routing, RIP v2, PBR, and VRRP. IPv4 capacity is 7168 routes with 256 IP interfaces. Static routes and RIP v2 suit routed business networks; PBR selects next hops, while VRRP provides default-gateway redundancy. Size the address plan against these limits.
SG550XG-48T uses an internal universal AC supply with 100-240V input; redundant power is provided externally through RPS2300. The chassis does not offer dual internal power supplies. If power redundancy is required, specify the RPS2300 system and the regional AC power arrangement as separate purchase requirements.
SG550XG-48T has 48 copper connections, while SG550XG-24T has 24; both configurations include two shared 10G SFP+ interfaces. Both models are discontinued. The larger model suits replacement requirements with greater copper density, while the smaller model matches existing deployments needing fewer connections without changing the shared-uplink arrangement.
SG550X-48P supplies PoE+ to 48 Gigabit Ethernet access ports, while SG550XG-48T provides non-PoE 10GBase-T connectivity. The comparison involves both endpoint power and native copper speed, not simply a powered version of the same switch. Both are discontinued; powered Gigabit endpoints and independently powered 10G endpoints require different configurations.
SX550X-52 has four dedicated 10G SFP+ interfaces, while SG550XG-48T has two shared SFP+ interfaces. SX550X-52 is discontinued; its replacement, CBS350-48XT-4X-NA, is also discontinued without a current successor. Historical SX550X-52 installations use independent fiber uplinks; SG550XG-48T replacements retain the shared-port arrangement.
