I believe that there are sysadmin in this community as many code contributors and IT admin love using anime picture as their profile picture(?). Anyway, based on the below requirement needed in a contract...

(machine translated w/ minor correction)

Based on above requirement, I believe that they want something like Cisco CBS220-48T-4X.

However, I am not sure as I never use a switch before.

Also, if possible, I want to know if there is another product that is more budget friendly and meet their requirement

That is strange. I mean, you can definitely buy that, but if it's a school, I'd assume they want a Layer 3 managed switch. Cisco isn't a bad name in switching, so the recommendation is fine. Maybe ask them if they have an existing switching vendor so you can match their environment. At work, I have to manage Cisco, Mellanox and HP switches and I wish they could all be the same vendor.
