Dell PowerConnect 2824 24-Port Switch

The Dell PowerConnect 2824 is a managed Layer 2 network switch designed for rackmount deployment. It provides twenty-four RJ45 ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps and two SFP uplink interfaces. The switch supports an 8K MAC address table and 9000-byte jumbo frames for efficient data handling.

Suited for Managed Layer 2 Networks

This switch fits environments needing VLAN segmentation, link aggregation via 802.3ad, and traffic prioritisation with 802.1p on a managed Layer 2 platform. It is not suitable for networks requiring Power over Ethernet, Layer 3 routing, or stacking capability. Buyers needing PoE or advanced routing should consider other hardware.

24 RJ45 Ports with Dual SFP Uplinks

The primary specification is the combination of twenty-four Gigabit RJ45 ports and two SFP uplink ports in a 1U rackmount form factor. This port density and uplink flexibility determine whether the unit matches the physical and logical topology of the intended network segment.

Questions about this item

How many devices can the 8K MAC address table track before it fills under sustained traffic?

The switch holds up to 8K MAC entries, so the table itself is the first limit reached when thousands of active endpoints are connected.

What is the power draw and acoustic profile when all 24 RJ45 ports run at 1000 Mbps continuously?

The 2824 has no PoE and no fan specifications in the data, so its steady-state heat and noise are determined by the base switch ASIC and passive cooling only.

Which SFP transceivers must I already own to use the two uplink ports?

The uplinks accept standard SFP modules at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps; any compatible SFP you already have will work.
