About This Product
The VigorSwitch P2542x is an advanced Layer 2+ managed switch designed for businesses that need robust management capabilities, enhanced network resilience and strong security features. It supports switch stacking and includes a secondary power input to help maintain uptime in critical environments.
Equipped with 48 PoE+ Gigabit Ethernet ports and six 10Gbps SFP+ fibre uplink slots, the switch offers ample capacity for powering and connecting a wide range of devices. Its 400‑watt PoE power budget ensures consistent and efficient power delivery, reducing the need for separate power supplies or adapters.
The P2542x also includes a comprehensive suite of management tools, such as VLAN segmentation, QoS traffic prioritisation, and remote monitoring capabilities. These features make it well‑suited for small and medium‑sized organisations as well as larger enterprise networks that demand reliability and control.
With built‑in support for redundant power options, the switch can operate using either DC or AC power sources, offering increased flexibility and allowing networks to continue running smoothly even if one power source becomes unavailable.
Designed for streamlined administration, the VigorSwitch P2542x can be deployed and monitored through the VigorACS cloud management platform or a compatible DrayTek Vigor router using Central Switch Management. Network administrators can easily push VLAN configurations from the router, duplicate switch settings, and simplify the setup of multi‑switch environments—significantly reducing the time and effort required to deploy complex network topologies.
