Overview:
The growing demand for higher wireless bandwidth in small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) continues to drive wireless technology forward. With WiFi 7 pushing speeds to 2.5Gbps and beyond, a robust infrastructure is essential. Introducing the XMG2230 Series—a line of Multi-Gig Layer 3 Access PoE switches available in 28- and 52-port models. The XMG2230-28HP features PoE-capable 2.5G Multi-Gig ports, while the XMG2230-52HP offers a mix of Gigabit and 2.5G PoE ports. Both models include four additional 10G SFP+ fiber uplinks for highspeed connectivity. Additionally, the unique dual power options—AC and DC— ensures a reliable wired infrastructure for WiFi 7.
Flexible Multi-Gig port configuration for scalable WiFi 7 rollouts
High resiliency and stability with dual power source options of internal AC primary, optional external DC backup
Adaptive PoE power budget with either internal AC power 700W (28HP)/960W (52HP) or external DC power system 1440W (28HP)/2400W (52HP)
High density 802.3at and 802.3bt (60W/port) for more powerful, flexible, and simplified deployments

Dual power for always-on connectivity
The XMG2230 Series is designed with superior network resiliency in mind, featuring dual power sources: an internal AC input as the primary source and an optional DC input for connection to an external DC power system. This active-standby power redundancy enables automatic switchover to backup power if the main AC source fails. The dual power design helps prevent unexpected outages and ensures stable, 24/7 connectivity.
High-power, adaptive PoE for modern business devices
The XMG2230-28HP supports PoE++ on all ports, while the XMG2230-52HP offers a mix of PoE+ and PoE++ for greater deployment flexibility. The series provides adaptive PoE power budget with either internal AC power 700W (28HP)/960W (52HP) or external DC power system 1440W (28HP)/2400W (52HP). It is built for higher capacity, improved efficiency, and reliable operation in demanding environments such as high-performance WiFi, video conferencing, IP surveillance, thin/zero clients, smart building, IoT, and AV applications.
Segment your network more effectively for security
Designed for SME networks, this series of switches supports full L2 feature sets such as VLAN, ACL, port aggregation, and mirroring, along with advanced security to keep your business protected. It also provides essential L3 access features for converged voice, video, and data. With support for static routing, the switches ensure efficient traffic flows across your network, while the built-in DHCP server simplifies device onboarding and reduces IT overhead.
