Product overview
Extreme Networks lists 5520-48SE as an extreme 48-Port SFP fiber Switch. Airflow direction has to match the rest of the row, and a front-to-back unit dropped into a back-to-front aisle will run hot from day one. Tell us the rack layout and we will confirm the variant.
Ask for the datasheet and firmware notes with the quote; we would rather you check our claim than take it.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
5520-48SE is what is quoted and 5520-48SE is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Airflow variant confirmed
We check the airflow direction against your aisle before shipping, because the wrong variant runs hot for the life of the switch.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is 5520-48SE genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the Extreme Networks warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will 5520-48SE work in my server?
Tell us what it is aggregating and what optics you already hold. We confirm the port mix, the uplink capacity and the airflow variant, and we will list the optics and rail kit you will also need.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
