Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Layer 2, providing advanced switching features such as VLAN support, Quality of Service (QoS), and port security to optimize network traffic and enhance security. The eight Gigabit Ethernet ports auto-negotiate between 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds and deliver up to 30W per port via IEEE 802.3at PoE+, simplifying deployment for powered devices.
Two shared SFP (mini-GBIC) slots allow fiber or copper uplink connections, extending network reach beyond the 100-meter limit of twisted pair cabling. The switch supports both 10/100/1000Base-T and 1000Base-X standards, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure and high-speed backbone links.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
A strong technical summary explains how the product's interfaces, hardware profile, and operating characteristics work together in real deployment. Buyers often need this context to confirm compatibility with existing devices, expected performance in daily use, and whether installation will be straightforward for IT staff or end users.

Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is well-suited for environments where reliable, managed switching with PoE+ is needed to support a mix of wired and wireless devices. Its compact rack-mountable design makes it ideal for network closets, small server rooms, or wall-mounted installations in space-constrained areas.
Typical deployments include small office networks connecting computers, printers, and IP phones; retail POS systems with security cameras and wireless access points; or classroom setups requiring VLAN segmentation for different user groups. The SFP uplinks allow connection to core switches or fiber backbones in multi-building campuses.
Office Network Hub
Centralize connectivity for workstations, VoIP phones, and Wi-Fi access points with PoE+ power and managed traffic control.
Surveillance Backbone
Power and connect multiple IP cameras over long distances using PoE+ and fiber uplinks for reliable video streaming.
Physical Profile
The switch measures 1.73 inches in height, 10.56 inches in width, and 12.73 inches in depth, fitting a standard 1U rack space. Its steel chassis includes rack-mount ears for secure installation in server cabinets or on wall brackets. The built-in power supply operates on 100-240V AC, supporting global voltage standards without external adapters.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (43.94 mm), 10.56" (268.22 mm), 12.73" (323.34 mm). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
