Copper Aggregation for Small Business Networks

SX550X-52-K9-NA is a managed Layer 2+ aggregation switch with 48 copper 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports and four dedicated 10G SFP+ uplinks. The fixed fiber interfaces operate independently of the copper connections, without a removable uplink card. This non-PoE, rack-mount 1U model belongs to the Cisco 550X Series and connects servers, network storage, and access-switch aggregation in small and medium business networks. The discontinued SX550X-24-K9-NA provides 24 copper connections with shared SFP+ interfaces instead. Hardware stacking unifies the data, control, and management planes across connected members rather than merely grouping independently administered devices. The copper-heavy configuration serves installations maintaining RJ-45 server and storage connections alongside separate fiber links.

Technical Details

1040 Gbps switching capacity provides wire-speed, nonblocking forwarding across the installed interfaces. 755.81 Mpps forwarding handles 64-byte packets, where packet rate becomes a separate sizing consideration from link bandwidth. Static routing and RIP v2 support inter-VLAN communication; PBR directs selected traffic, and VRRP v2/v3 provides gateway redundancy. The IPv4 table accommodates 7168 routes, while IPv6 static routing supports 1792 routes and 256 interfaces. SX550X-52-K9-NA has 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for control-plane operation and image storage. A 10 MB packet buffer is dynamically shared across ports rather than assigned as a fixed allocation to each interface. STP/RSTP/MSTP provides spanning-tree operation, while LACP aggregates links. DHCP snooping and Dynamic ARP Inspection check address bindings. Cisco 550X Series Stackable Managed Switches provide HTTP/HTTPS administration and Textview CLI access, including remote SSH sessions. Jumbo frames reach 9000 bytes where the connected network uses a matching MTU.

ORM coverage is up to a 3-year extended warranty for new units and up to 1 year for certified refurbished units; 30-day returns apply to every condition, terms apply, and Cisco's separate limited lifetime coverage ends July 31, 2027. For enterprise and volume orders, POs are accepted, government buyers receive Net-30, and RMA with advance replacement is available across UK, EU, US, and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Service horizon and migration

SX550X-52-K9-NA requires a bounded service horizon: software maintenance ended July 30, 2023, and Cisco support ends July 31, 2027. Its original successor CBS350-48XT-4X-NA is also discontinued, with no current successor in that migration chain.

Optics require separate selection

Fiber connectivity requires SFP-10G-SR for multimode runs or SFP-10G-LR for single-mode runs. The transceiver line items must match the installed fiber and far-end interface; specify optics separately on the purchase order.

Best For

Copper Server Consolidation

When consolidating server or storage connections onto copper switching, the installed cable plant determines the attachment plan. Category 6a cabling supports 10 Gigabit connections over distances reaching 100 m. Survey patch panels, permanent links, and endpoint interfaces before specifying the required copper patching on the purchase order.

Existing Stack Expansion

When extending an existing 550X stack, ring and chain arrangements require an explicit interconnect layout. SFP-H10GB-CU3M provides a 3 m direct-attach connection, and link aggregation can combine stacking interconnects. Reserve the interfaces needed for the chosen topology and specify cable quantities and lengths before issuing the purchase order.

Replacement Acceptance Staging

When a replacement requires acceptance testing before installation, dual firmware images support image staging, while port mirroring can send traffic from eight source ports to a destination analyzer port. Secure Copy transfers configuration files. Specify the acceptance configuration, traffic-observation connections, and image requirements before placing the replacement order.

Not Suitable If

PoE-powered phones or access points

SX550X-52-K9-NA supplies no endpoint power through its copper interfaces. Phones, access points, and other powered devices cannot receive their operating power from these network ports.

Uplinks faster than 10 Gigabit

The four fixed SFP+ interfaces support 10 Gigabit Ethernet as their maximum speed. No removable uplink card can add a faster interface to this chassis.

Two internal redundant power supplies

Power redundancy uses the external Cisco RPS2300 rather than a second internal power-supply bay. An installation requiring two internal redundant supplies cannot use this chassis.
