User Manual
FAQ
How many PoE+ ports does this switch have?
All 8 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports support PoE+, with a total PoE budget of 130 W. This allows the switch to deliver both data and up to 25.5 W of power per port to compatible devices like wireless access points, VoIP phones, and IP cameras over a single Ethernet cable.
What is the purpose of the SFP slots on this switch?
The two SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) slots provide fiber optic uplink capabilities, enabling connections over longer distances than copper cables. You can insert SFP transceivers to connect to other switches or network equipment using fiber optic cables, which is useful for extending network reach between buildings or across large campuses.
What does Layer 4 management mean for this switch?
Layer 4 management refers to the switch's ability to classify and control network traffic based on transport layer information, such as TCP/UDP ports. This allows for advanced features like bandwidth limiting, traffic prioritization for specific applications (e.g., VoIP or video streaming), and improved quality of service in multi-tenant environments.
Is this switch fanless, and why is that important?
Yes, this switch features a fanless design, meaning it operates silently without cooling fans. This is important for office environments, classrooms, or retail spaces where noise reduction is desired. Fanless operation also increases reliability by eliminating moving parts that can wear out over time.
