Condition: NEW — Brand new, factory-sealed unit. Manufacturer Part #: MS250-48LP-HW
Cisco Meraki MS250-48LP 48-Port PoE+ Gigabit Switch — 370 W PoE Budget, Layer 3 Stackable, 1U Rack
The Cisco Meraki MS250-48LP brings PoE+ capability to 48 Gigabit access ports with a 370 W budget, making it a practical choice for medium-density deployments powering a mix of wireless access points, IP phones, and IoT endpoints. Four 10G SFP+ uplinks and dedicated 80 Gbps stacking ports integrate cleanly into multi-switch stack environments. Dual hot-swap power supplies minimize unplanned downtime risk, and Meraki Dashboard cloud management provides centralized visibility and control including automatic firmware upgrades and remote packet capture without requiring on-site IT staff for routine changes.

Best Used For
Best suited for medium-density campus access closets where 48 PoE+ ports cover a mix of connected devices and the 370 W budget is sufficient to avoid per-port contention. Ideal for organizations with growing wireless density that need stackable, cloud-managed switching with built-in power redundancy.
