AL1001E07-E5 Overview
The Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series is a set of premium, high-performance, highly efficient, Stackable Switches with comprehensive Layer 3 Routing, advanced security and unified communications features. As a flexible, multi-role platform, the Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 is suitable for Wiring Closet, Data Center aggregation and network
Core applications. The Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series (ERS 5500) currently includes five distinct models.
Two high-performance 10/100/1000 models offer either 24- or 48-ports including two Combo 1000BASE-T/1000BASE-SFP Uplinks ports. Then there are the high-performance models that deliver Standards-based Power-over- Ethernet (PoE) 10/100/1000 in 24- or 48-ports variants including four Combo 1000BASE- T/1000BASE-SFP Uplinks ports. And lastly, the model that rounds out the portfolio delivers 24 ports of 10/100/1000, including 12 Combo ports of 1000BASE-T/1000BASE-SFP Uplinks ports, plus two 10GBASE-XFP slots. All models support power resiliency via the external Redundant Power Supply 15 solution.
The Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series features an advanced implementation of Nortel’s Flexible Advanced Stacking Technology (FAST), also seen on the other Stackable product lines in Nortel’s Ethernet Routing Switch portfolio.
A key aspect for the ERS 5500 is that these models are 100% Stack-compatible with the new ERS 5600 Series products. Any combination of ERS 5000 Series units — 5500 or 5600 models — can be Stacked up to eight units high, or to a maximum of 400 ports. When ERS 5500s are Stacking directly
together, the Stacking bandwidth is 80Gbps per unit, and therefore up to an extremely impressive 640Gbps for a complete Stack. When 5600 models are adjacent to 5500 models — known as ‘Hybrid Stacking’ — the Stacking bandwidth is the standard 80Gbps; however, when 5600 models are Stacked
together, the capacity increases to 144Gbps, and a pure Stack of ERS 5600 models is an Industry-leading 1.152Tbps.
This unique ‘Hybrid Stacking’ capability ensures that the Ethernet Routing Switch 5000 Series provides incredible versatility and investment protection; something which is distinctly lacking in many competitive offerings. Being able to mix and match models
in a Hybrid Stack from the full ERS 5000 Series range enables Operators to easily and cost-effectively add to existing ERS 5500 deployments; the requirement could be to
scale capacity or to add 10G Ethernet Uplinks for the high-performance Wiring Closet and other deployment scenarios.
The Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series delivers highly scalable and flexible Power- over-Ethernet, with medium- and high-density models available to simplify deployment in high-intensity Convergence-centric networks. An external redundant power solution ensures both power redundancy and full PoE power.

How does the management interface for this Nortel switch compare to newer models? +
The Nortel 5530 series offers a mature and stable command-line interface (CLI) that administrators have relied on for years. While it differs from modern web-based GUIs, the CLI provides deep, granular control over routing protocols, security settings, and VLAN configurations. It remains a preferred choice for network engineers who require precise, scriptable management of their infrastructure components.
Does this switch support advanced Layer 3 routing protocols? +
The Nortel 5530-24TFD includes robust Layer 3 functionality, supporting essential routing protocols necessary for segmenting traffic and improving network efficiency. These features allow the switch to perform intelligent path selection, helping to reduce broadcast traffic and optimize data delivery across the enterprise. It is a reliable solution for organizations needing static or dynamic routing at the network edge.
What power and cooling considerations should be noted for deployment? +
Like many enterprise-grade stackable switches, the 5530-24TFD is designed for standard rack-mount installations. It utilizes integrated cooling fans to maintain optimal operating temperatures within the chassis. For the best longevity and reliability, ensure your server rack has adequate airflow and that the switch is connected to a stable power source consistent with enterprise electrical standards.
What security features are integrated into the 5530-24TFD series? +
Security is addressed through comprehensive VLAN support and access control capabilities that limit unauthorized segment access. By enforcing traffic policies at the port level, the switch helps protect your network from internal threats and prevents unauthorized devices from reaching sensitive segments of the infrastructure, maintaining a secure perimeter for your departmental data and connected endpoints.
