Alloy APS-48T4SFP Gigabit PoE+ Switch 48 Port 4 SFP Managed | 1yr Wty

Why Choose the Alloy APS-48T4SFP?

• 48 Gigabit PoE+ Ports: All 48 RJ45 ports support IEEE 802.3at (30W per port) for powering IP phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other PoE devices across an entire floor.
• Dual-Speed SFP/SFP+ Uplinks: Four uplink ports accept both 1Gbps SFP and 10Gbps SFP+ transceivers — connect to current 1G infrastructure or upgrade to 10G backbone without replacing the switch.
• 380W Total PoE Budget: Substantial power allocation supports approximately 12 high-power (30W) devices simultaneously while leaving capacity for dozens of standard PoE phones and APs.
• 136Gbps Non-Blocking Fabric: 130.94Mpps forwarding rate ensures wire-speed performance across all 52 ports simultaneously during peak traffic periods.
• Enterprise Layer 2+ Features: SNMP v1/v2c/v3, sFlow monitoring, 802.1x authentication, LACP (10 groups), up to 4096 VLANs, DHCP snooping, and port security.
• Australian Brand + 12-Month Warranty: Alloy Computer Products is an established Australian networking brand; every unit includes Reboot IT's 12-month warranty and Australian-based support.

Performance in Enterprise Environments

The APS-48T4SFP handles medium to large office PoE deployments where device density is high. A typical configuration runs 30 IP phones at 8W, eight wireless access points at 15W, and four IP cameras at 12W — using around 370W of the 380W budget while maintaining full Gigabit switching across all ports. The four SFP/SFP+ uplinks provide high-speed backbone connectivity to core switches or distribution layer infrastructure.

Administrators manage the switch through Web GUI, CLI, SNMP, Telnet, or SSH. The comprehensive security feature set — 802.1x authentication, ACLs, and DHCP snooping — makes it suitable for environments requiring network access control. sFlow monitoring provides real-time traffic visibility for performance analysis and troubleshooting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the SFP/SFP+ ports run at 10Gbps?

Yes — all four uplink ports accept SFP+ transceivers for 10Gbps connections to core switches, storage networks, or high-bandwidth uplinks, as well as standard 1Gbps SFP modules.

How many 30W PoE+ devices can run simultaneously?

With a 380W budget, approximately 12 devices at maximum 30W each. In practice, most deployments mix device types — phones at 6–8W, APs at 12–15W — allowing many more devices to run concurrently.

Is it compatible with non-Alloy SFP modules?

Yes — standard MSA-compliant SFP and SFP+ modules from major manufacturers are supported for both copper and fibre connectivity options.

Does it support network monitoring systems like PRTG?

Yes — full SNMP v1/v2c/v3 support ensures compatibility with PRTG, SolarWinds, Nagios, and other standard network management platforms.

What warranty is included?

Every Alloy APS-48T4SFP includes a 12-month parts and labour warranty from Reboot IT, covering all ports, PoE delivery, SFP uplinks, and management functions.
