How to evaluate this exact configuration
Access connections
Access connections for CCS-720XP-48ZC2-F: 40 x 100M-2.5G RJ45 (30W); 8 x 100M-5G RJ45 (60W). List the endpoints, required link speeds and spare connections before choosing the switch count. Do not count an uplink socket as another equivalent copper endpoint port.
Uplink arrangement
Uplink arrangement for CCS-720XP-48ZC2-F: 4 x 25G SFP; 2 x 100G QSFP. Match the upstream port format, cable or transceiver, link speed and intended redundancy. Retain every qualification in the stated uplink arrangement when preparing the bill of materials.
Power over Ethernet
Power over Ethernet for CCS-720XP-48ZC2-F: UPOE+ / PoE++. Check the endpoint's power requirement and the total budget of the supplied power configuration. Multiplying a per-port maximum by the number of ports is not a valid way to infer the available PoE budget.
Power supply configuration
Power supply configuration for CCS-720XP-48ZC2-F: 1 x 1050W AC included; front to rear airflow. Write the required supply quantity, input power and airflow into the quote. A supply slot and an included supply are different bill-of-materials items.
