CX4800-56F Aggregation Switch Features 48 10GbE/25GbE SFP28 and 8 100GbE QSFP28 Ports to Boost Productivity, Lower Latency, and Maximize Application Performance

ANAHEIM, California (April 29, 2025) Zyxel Networks, a leader in delivering secure, AI- and cloud-powered business and home networking solutions, today announced the launch of CX4800-56F 48-port 10G/25G L3 Aggregation Fiber Switch with 8 100G Uplinks, a high-performance Layer 3 managed switch that offers a future-proof network solution that supports today’s 10GbE network demands and future 25GbE network upgrades.

Ideal for supporting the growing bandwidth requirements of enterprise and campus aggregation network environments, the high-density CX4800-56F features upgradable 48 10GbE/25GbE SFP28 ports and incorporates eight 100GbE QSFP28 uplink ports that provide large uplinks to support cross-stack bandwidth delivery. In addition to a non-blocking architecture that delivers full 25GbE throughput on every port, even under heavy traffic conditions, the switch meets the requirements for advanced Layer 2 switching and static routing including VLAN, network access control list (ACL), port aggregation and mirroring, and security features that protect the daily operation of the network.

CX4800-56F provides high-performance switching capacity of up to 4.0Tbps with forwarding rates of up to 2.0Bpps, providing faster data transfer speeds that boost productivity in organizations with high data volumes such as video production companies and scientific research institutions. High bandwidth and low latency ensure top application performance for companies that rely on cloud-based services and real-time applications such as VoIP, video conferencing, and virtualized environments.

Benefits and Features of CX4800-56F Aggregation Fiber Switch include:

• NebulaFlex Pro – NebulaFlex Pro enables the switch to be easily managed as a standalone device or as part of a cloud-managed network using the intuitive Nebula Control Center (NCC). A one-year professional pack license bundle provides users with features including advanced IGMP technology, comprehensive IPTV reports that provide insights to channel usage information, and network analytics alerts to optimize network performance.
• Resiliency and Availability – Dual redundant, hot-swappable power supplies ensure there is no downtime in the event of a power supply outage. Hot-swappable fan trays safeguard against fan failures or rising temperatures. Ease of maintenance eliminates the need for scheduled system downtime if power supplies or fans need to be replaced.
• Dedicated Networked AV Mode – The dedicated networked AV mode incorporates an intuitive wizard backed by AI intelligence to make the set-up of professional AVoIP systems easy and intuitive. In addition to a hardware design that delivers lossless and latency-free 4K video streaming over a 10GbE network, the intuitive graphical status overview of the key AV network elements, such as IGMP and IP information, helps users manage and monitor the system with ease.

“Organizations that process high volumes of data, like video production companies and scientific research institutions, are looking to next-generation networks that can deliver the faster speeds and lower latency that boost productivity and deliver the best user experience,” stated Tri Nguyen, Channel Sales and Product Manager at Zyxel Networks. “Zyxel’s CX4800-56F is a future-proof solution that supports 10GbE requirements today and is easily upgraded to support future 25GbE requirements, enabling the switch to meet the evolving bandwidth requirements of the network while protecting the wired network investment.”
