With 48 PoE+ Gigabit ports and four 10GbE SFP+ uplinks, it is designed for enterprise floors where nearly every connected device requires power and bandwidth. In a typical large enterprise deployment, a single 6248P can support 48 concurrent PoE+ devices: a mix of 802.11ac\/Wi-Fi 6 wireless APs (up to 25W), VoIP handsets (4–8W), and IP cameras (10–25W) — all with high-speed 10G uplinks preventing aggregation bottlenecks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 13px 0;\"\u003eFull Layer 3 capability allows inter-VLAN routing locally on the switch, avoiding the latency and complexity of routing traffic through a dedicated upstream router for each VLAN. OSPF and RIP support enables the switch to participate in campus routed topologies, making it suitable for distribution layer roles in addition to access layer deployments. LACP link aggregation allows uplinks to be bonded for combined throughput or active-active redundancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 20px 0;\"\u003eThe PowerConnect 6248P is managed via Dell's command-line interface and web GUI, with SNMP support for integration with enterprise network management platforms. The optional stacking module allows multiple units to be interconnected as a single logical switch — simplifying management of large floors or buildings where port count would otherwise require multiple independent switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#0060a9;font-size:17px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:7px;border-bottom:1px solid #e0e0e0;margin:0 0 12px 0;\"\u003eTech

The standard 6248 has the same port count and Layer 3 feature set but does not include PoE. The 6248P is specifically designed for environments powering IP phones, wireless APs, and cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\" style=\"font-weight:bold;color:#0060a9;margin:20px 0 5px 0;\"\u003eAre the SFP+ ports 10G capable?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\" style=\"margin:0 0 4px 0;\"\u003eYes — all four SFP+ uplink ports are 10 Gigabit Ethernet capable.
