I have chosen the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X as a performance 24-port Gigabit PoE+ managed network switch. It is built for businesses that want a fast and easy-to-manage network.
The Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X includes 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 speed 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink ports. This makes it ideal for connecting computers, IP cameras, wireless access points, IP phones, and many other network devices.
Because the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X supports Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), it can carry both data and electrical power through one Ethernet cable to devices. This reduces cable clutter, makes installation simpler, and cuts down on the need for power adapters.
The Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X is designed for medium-sized businesses, offices, hotels, educational institutions, and commercial buildings. It offers network connectivity with a 128 Gbps switching capacity and a built-in AC power supply. The 10GE SFP+ uplink ports let the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X connect to core network equipment and other high-speed devices.
If you are setting up a business network, an IP surveillance system, or a wireless network, the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X offers a solution for managing many connected devices.

Technical Knowledge: Understanding the Main Specifications
- What is a Gigabit Ethernet port?
A Gigabit Ethernet port can handle network speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps, which’s equal to 1 Gbps. The 24 copper ports on the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X can connect devices using standard Ethernet cables.
- What is PoE+?
PoE+ means Power over Ethernet Plus. It allows compatible network devices to get power and data through an Ethernet cable. This can make installation simpler. Cut down on the need for extra power adapters.
- What does a 400 W PoE budget mean?
A 400 W PoE budget means the Huawei eKitEngine S310-24P4X can supply up to 400 watts of power to all PoE devices combined, depending on each devices power needs.
The 400 W figure is the switch’s PoE power budget. This budget is shared by all PoE devices that connect, not by each port. The number of devices that can be powered depends on each device’s power need and the total budget.
- What are 10GE SFP+ ports used for?
SFP+ ports allow high‑speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet links when paired with optical transceivers, fibre cables or direct‑attach cables. They are often used to connect access switches to core switches or other fast network gear.
- What is switching capacity?
Switching capacity is the measure of how much traffic the switch’s internal fabric can handle. A 128 Gbps switching capacity lets the switch move data between ports
- What is packet forwarding performance?
Packet forwarding performance is counted in millions of packets per second or Mpps. The S310‑24P4X can forward 96 Mpps, showing how many packets it can handle in the test set.
Size, Weight and Installation
The Huawei S310‑24P4X is a standard 1U rack‑mount unit.
- Height: 43.6 mm
- Width: 442 mm
- Depth: 220 mm
- Weight: 3.79 kg including packaging materials in the specified configuration

Why Do You Need the Huawei S310‑24P4X?
If your business must link computers, IP cameras, wireless access points and other gear, the Huawei eKitEngine S310‑24P4X is a handy way to gather them on one managed network.
Its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports give lots of wired links. PoE+ makes it easy to plug in powered devices. The four 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplinks let the network grow faster, and the 400 W PoE budget powers devices without separate power cords.
For offices, hotels, schools, shops and other buildings that want a Huawei 24‑port Gigabit PoE+ switch, with 10G uplinks, the S310‑24P4X mixes connectivity, power supply and network control in a small form.
