Very happy with this product. The web UI is pretty good, and there's a standard command line interface (CLI) if you need it. I've been using this switch for over months now, and it has worked very well.

Great switch, 8 10gbe SFP+ ports , place in cabinet, this is a enterprise switch, you will hear the fans.

I used to buy cables and transceivers here. Love their cost-saving&solid products and fast delivery service. This is my first time to go for a switch. I emailed them a couple of questions beforehand, and they replied promptly and helpfully.
I needed switches in a small office location where there are around 150 wall ports. Poe was also needed for voip phones, ip cameras, wap. So i’m looking for four 48 port switches with poe, stack is icing on the cake for ease of management. Last build i went for Cisco C9200-48P, but I’m open to other alternatives as ideally i would pay a bit less on switching equipment, and spend a bit more on wifi. So i emailed and told them my demands. They recommended me this switch. At first, i was a little skeptical for the price as it is much cheaper than the cisco one. But later i realized price was one reason why i wanted to look at Cisco alternatives. After all, in a small office spending $10k on switches was not a requirement. What really struck me is that i can exchange or return the item within 30 days of receiving products, and the warranty is for 5 years. I decided to give it a shot. The package comes complete with cables, mounting ears, screws, rubber pads and a user manual. Switches feel solid and function as advertised so far. The poe ports function normally, the cameras and wifi are very stable and the switches seem to be doing its job very well. As to stacking function, this switch is with virtual stacking (control plane stacking, not data plane stacking). I don't have to buy stacking modules or stacking cables either, cost-saving 10G DAC cables are enough. The only drawback is the switch only allows to stack up to 4. This may be a little inadequate to meet future demands but can totally meet my current and near-future needs. I am so happy I chose this switch. Set up was easy...but I needed a little help. Customer service was great, walked me through each step and was patient. In the end, I’d like to share some comparisons i concerned between this switch and the Cisco one:
The Cisco switch has 176 Gbps switching capacity and 130.95 Mpps forwarding rate, while this switch is with 256 Gbps and 192 Mpps.
Both switches have nearly the same poe, stacking and L3 functions and features, but the price of this switch is about 1/2th of the Cisco one.
This switch is equipped with two 500W power supplies in the package and I can enjoy a lifetime software update.

I've got a number of FS's 10G switches, this was just the latest purchase. Recently, I needed a switch to be managed poe capable of supporting 3000+ vlans and be at least 500 watts of poe power. I planned to hook up servers, computers, IP phones, and Ubiquiti ac pros to this switch and have all 48 ports used.
I was considering the HP/Aruba 2530-48G, but its power consumption is about 980 watts, beyond my power budget for it. Besides 48 poe ports, HP’s get 4 sfp ports, but FS’s have 8 sfp+ ports, which can meet my future growth more. More importantly, as I said I needed a switch to support 3k+ vlans, FS S5500-48T8SP supports up to 4k+ vlans, covering all my current needs and even future needs. That’s awesome! After balancing between price and performance, I chose this energy-saving and solid one.
Also, being quite or near quite matters to me a lot. This switch has a smart fan design that can automatically control the fan speed and reduce noise greatly. So far so good, everything is fine, even the switch is under full load.

It fits my needs and at this price point I'm quite happy. Easy setup with intuitive software.

Works terrific and at a very affordable price --- perfect PoE switch with enough ports. Very nice, easy to setup and provide enough power for the cameras I have connected.

This is the first time I buy POE switches from FS.COM, glad to say their website is really very comprehensive. All products have clear classification and it is very easy to find what you want. In addition, the sales specialist Mabel is really professional, she always provides the information I want before I say, and you can also download the useful documents directly on website.

You would not regret shopping at FS.COM. The prices are as low as anywhere else and the service is good. I will shop there again in the future.

So far the switch has been rock solid. After an easy setup with a few tweaks to the configuration, I was up and ready to go. I have not yet had a chance to test the BVSS functionality, but VLANs and port mirroring have worked just as expected with no hiccups. Of course, POE has also been rock solid, it is powering a few AP’s without issue. The POE scheduling feature is also very nice.

The switch basic setup is as easy as it can be. If you just need basic switch functionality, you can get away with not even accessing the management UI. For more advanced setups, there are tons of features exposed through the web UI, and of course, you can enable SSH and drop into a console to set things up exactly how you'd like.
