CloudEngine S5735-L24P4S-A-V2 Series Switches
Description
It is a 24‑port Gigabit access switch with PoE+ support (on all 24 downlink ports) plus 4 × GE SFP uplink ports. It belongs to Huawei’s CloudEngine S5735‑L‑V2 series, intended for campus / access layer deployment. It uses a fixed AC internal power supply (i.e. not hot‑swappable) to provide both its own power and the PoE power to devices. It supports stacking (iStack) so that multiple units can act as a single logical switch for management, redundancy, and capacity scaling. Ideal for IT professionals and procurement engineers, this switch supports robust and scalable network infrastructure.

Key Features & Advantages
- PoE+ Support on All Downlink Ports: The switch offers 24 × RJ‑45 ports with PoE+ (802.3at) meaning you can power devices like wireless APs, IP cameras, VoIP phones etc. directly from the switch without needing separate power sources.
- High PoE Power Budget: It has a built‑in AC power module delivering ~400 W of PoE power in total. This allows many PoE devices to operate on full power without overloading the switch.
- Good Switching Capacity & Forwarding Performance: ~ 56 Gbps switching capacity ~ 42 Mpps packet forwarding rate. These specs are solid for its role as an access/layer‑2/3 edge device.
- Layer‑2 / Layer‑3 Features & Redundancy: Supports multiple protocols for redundancy and loop prevention (STP, RSTP, MSTP, ERPS) for reliable uptime. Uplink redundancy via “Smart Link” to guard against failure of an aggregation switch or uplink path.
- Security & Access Control: The switch includes strong security features:
- Port‑based authentication (802.1X), MAC address authentication, dynamic policy enforcement (VLANs, ACLs, QoS)
- Protection against common network attacks: DHCP spoofing, ARP spoofing, IP/MAC spoofing, DoS attacks etc.
- Scalability via Stacking / Management Simplification: It supports iStack, so multiple units can be combined into a single logical switch. That simplifies management, increases redundancy, and expands capacity. Zero‑touch deployment, batch configuration, easy firmware upgrading and replacement help reduce manual work and deployment time.
- Manageability, Monitoring and Telemetry: Features like real‑time telemetry, fault detection, monitoring via Huawei’s O&M tools (e.g. CampusInsight), cloud management, scriptable interfaces (e.g. Python, NETCONF/YANG) make it easier to maintain, monitor, and automate.
- Compact, Robust Hardware Design: Form‑factor is 1U rack mount, standard chassis size, making it easier to fit in racks. Built‑in fans, power supply designed for full load, good environmental tolerance
Use Cases & Where It Fits Best
This series is well-suited for:
- Intermediate / access layer in campus networks, wiring closets
- Branch offices, medium enterprises
- Deployments needing PoE for IP cameras, WiFi APs (for models with PoE support)
- Networks that need a mix of L2 and L3 functionality without full-blown high-end core switching
- Situations where stacking, telemetry, integration into Huawei’s management stack are beneficial
It may not be ideal if you need very high-density 10 / 25 / 40 / 100 Gbps uplinks at scale, or modular power redundancy (since many models have fixed internal power).
