About the Extreme Networks 5720 Series Switch 5720-48MXW
The Extreme Networks 5720-48MXW is a 48-port Layer 2/3 managed access switch delivering simultaneous multi-rate Ethernet connectivity at 2.5, 5, and 10 Gigabit speeds per port. Each port supplies up to 90W of PoE++ power, enabling deployment of power-hungry Wi-Fi 6E access points, industrial IoT endpoints, and IP cameras without external power injectors. The switch architecture emphasizes non-blocking throughput and low-latency packet processing, with redundant management and power supply options for mission-critical environments.
Designed for healthcare networks, university campuses, and enterprise IoT deployments, the 5720-48MXW addresses the convergence challenge of high-density wireless access points and networked sensors requiring unified power and connectivity. Advanced features include dynamic power budgeting, per-port isolation, VLAN segmentation, and 802.1X authentication for endpoint security. The platform supports both IPv4 and IPv6 across all switching fabric operations and management interfaces.
Ideal for
- Hospital Wi-Fi 6E deployment with 20+ access points per floor, supporting patient monitors, mobile carts, and guest networks from single switch
- University residence hall infrastructure consolidating wired dormitory endpoints, wireless access points, and IP-PBX phones with unified PoE++ delivery
- Industrial IoT sensor network with hundreds of networked environmental monitors, occupancy sensors, and condition-based maintenance devices requiring persistent power
- Retail location connecting high-bandwidth POS terminals, security cameras, digital signage, and employee Wi-Fi 6E access points across multiple store sections
- Laboratory environment integrating research instruments, data acquisition systems, and remote monitoring endpoints with guaranteed power availability and network redundancy
- Multi-tenant office building where individual tenants require isolated network segments, dedicated bandwidth, and independent power management for their wireless and wired infrastructure
