Edgecore Networks Launches ECS5500-12T/12P: Compact 10G Multi-G Switches Built for the Next Wave of Wi-Fi and IoT
Extreme Environment Readiness Meets High-Power PoE++ — Purpose-Built for Wi-Fi 7 and the Demands of Modern Edge Networks HSINCHU, Taiwan, April 22, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Edgecore Networks, a leader in innovative network solutions for enterprises, data centers, and telecommunication service providers, today announced the launch of the ECS5500-12T and ECS5500-12P, two high-performance 10G Layer 2+/Lite L3 multi-Gigabit access switches designed to meet the growing demands of Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 access points, power-hungry edge devices, and hybrid enterprise networks. With a compact footprint, support for 1G/2.5G/5G/10G downlinks, advanced power delivery, and robust environmental resilience, the ECS5500-12T/12P brings enterprise-class capabilities to the edge — with the simplicity and cost-efficiency that modern deployments demand. "With the ECS5500-12T/12P, we are offering a robust and flexible switch platform that not only delivers 10G performance and full-power PoE++, but also thrives in demanding environments — all at a highly competitive price point," said TengTai Hsu, Vice President of Edgecore Networks. "It's the ideal choice for customers building out Wi-Fi 7 infrastructure, IoT deployments, or modern multi-site office networks." Built for the Power-Hungry Future: 480W PoE++ for High-End Devices The ECS5500-12P delivers up to 60W of power per port, supporting the latest Wi-Fi 7 access points, AI-enabled surveillance cameras, PoE-powered terminals, and other smart building technologies — all over standard Cat. 6a cables. With a total PoE budget of 480W, the switch enables full power across all 8 PoE ports simultaneously. Built-in dynamic power allocation and auto-disable protection features help optimize energy use and ensure device safety. High-Speed Multi-G Downlinks, 10G Uplinks Featuring 8 x RJ-45 ports supporting 1G/2.5G/5G/10G, and 4 x 10G uplink ports (2 x SFP+ and 2 x 10G BASE-T RJ-45), the ECS5500-12T/12P provides flexible connectivity. All 10 RJ-45 ports can be used for multi-Gigabit connections, not just uplinks, making it ready for bandwidth-intensive applications — from high-speed NAS to cloud-based collaboration platforms. Its 240 Gbps switching capacity and 178.5 Mpps forwarding rate ensure smooth and stable performance in high-throughput environments. Engineered for Harsh Environments Whether installed in a wiring closet, edge cabinet, or smart building enclosure, the ECS5500-12T/12P operates reliably in extreme conditions — with a -20°C to 55°C operating temperature and 6KV surge protection on both power and Ethernet ports. A smart fan design keeps operation quiet (under 39dB), making it suitable for both harsh edge environments and quiet office deployments. Secure, Manageable, and Ready for Scale The ECS5500-12T/12P integrates enterprise-grade features such as: IPv6 support, DHCP snooping, IP Source Guard, and ACLs 802.1X port-based and MAC-based authentication ERPS (G.8032) ring protection with <50ms convergence Dying Gasp power loss alert Flexible management via Web UI, CLI, SNMP, and support for both Edgecore ecCLOUD and TIP OpenLAN Switching (OLS) Whether managed locally or via the cloud, the ECS5500-12T/12P fits seamlessly into existing network infrastructures and scales to meet future demands.
