Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates at Gigabit Ethernet speeds across all ports, supporting both 10/100/1000Base-TX over twisted pair copper and 100/1000Base-FX over optical fiber via its two dedicated SFP slots. The eight RJ-45 ports are PoE+ capable, offering a total budget of 130 watts to power devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras.
As a managed Layer 4 switch, it implements a comprehensive suite of networking standards including IEEE 802.3at (PoE+), 802.3ad (Link Aggregation), 802.1Q (VLAN), and 802.1p (priority tagging). This allows for advanced traffic shaping, VLAN segmentation, and quality of service (QoS) policies. The switch accepts 120-230V AC input and has a typical power consumption of 147 watts.

Key Product Advantages
The SMTATSA switch consolidates connectivity, power, and management into a single, reliable unit, reducing cabling complexity and infrastructure costs. Its PoE+ capability eliminates the need for separate power supplies at endpoint locations, simplifying deployments for VoIP systems and wireless networks.
Enhanced Control and Visibility
Full manageability provides real-time monitoring, configuration, and troubleshooting tools. Layer 4 support enables application-aware traffic policies, allowing administrators to guarantee bandwidth for voice, video, or critical data flows.
Flexible Uplink Options
The two SFP slots offer fiber uplink connectivity for extending network reach over longer distances or connecting to fiber backbones. This provides flexibility in network design and future-proofs the installation.
Quiet and Reliable Design
The fanless architecture ensures silent operation, making it suitable for office environments, while also reducing points of failure for increased long-term reliability.
Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is engineered for small to medium business networks, branch offices, and multi-tenant unit (MTU) or multi-dwelling unit (MDU) environments where reliable, managed switching with power delivery is required.
Ideal use cases include powering and connecting a suite of IP phones and wireless access points in an office, creating a segmented network for different departments or tenants with VLANs, or serving as an access layer switch in a retail or education setting where quiet operation is beneficial.
Unified Communications Deployment
Deploy as the core switch for a VoIP system, providing both network connectivity and power to IP phones, while using QoS to prioritize voice traffic.
Secure Network Segmentation
Utilize its Layer 3/4 capabilities to create separate VLANs for guests, employees, and IoT devices, enhancing security and network performance within a shared physical infrastructure.
Physical Profile
Designed for standard 19-inch rack mounting, the switch measures 1.73 inches in height (1U), 8.66 inches in width, and 9.53 inches in depth. Its compact footprint optimizes rack space, and the included mounting bracket facilitates secure installation. The unit weighs approximately 4.4 pounds, making it manageable for standard rack installation procedures.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.73" (43.94 mm), 8.66" (219.96 mm), 9.53" (242.06 mm), 4.40 lb (1995.81 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE+?
The switch has a total PoE budget of 130 watts. The exact number of devices depends on their individual power requirements. For example, it could power several standard IP phones (typically under 10W each) and multiple wireless access points (often 15-30W each) simultaneously, as long as the total does not exceed the 130W budget.
What are the SFP slots used for?
The two SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) slots are used to add fiber optic uplinks. You can insert compatible SFP transceivers to connect the switch to other network equipment using fiber optic cables. This is ideal for longer-distance connections (beyond 100 meters) or for linking to a fiber backbone, providing greater network design flexibility.
What does 'Layer 4 supported' mean for this switch?
Layer 4 support refers to the transport layer in the OSI model. This switch can inspect and make forwarding decisions based on information like TCP/UDP port numbers. This enables advanced features such as quality of service (QoS) policies that prioritize specific types of traffic (e.g., voice or video) and bandwidth limiting for applications or users, providing finer control over network performance.
Is this switch fanless, and why is that important?
Yes, this switch features a fanless design. This is important for reducing audible noise, making it suitable for quiet environments like offices, classrooms, or retail spaces. A fanless design also improves long-term reliability by eliminating a common mechanical point of failure and reduces dust accumulation inside the unit.
What is included in the box for mounting the switch?
The package includes a standard 19-inch rack mount bracket, allowing for immediate installation into a server rack or network cabinet. Along with the bracket, the box contains the SMTATSA Ethernet Switch itself and a power cord with a United Kingdom (UK) plug. No additional mounting hardware is required for a standard rack installation.
What management features does this managed switch offer?
As a fully manageable switch, it offers features such as VLAN configuration for network segmentation, Link Aggregation (LACP) for combining ports, Quality of Service (QoS) for traffic prioritization, SNMP for monitoring, and security features like port security and access control lists. Management is typically done via a web interface, command line interface (CLI), or supported network management software.
What uplink, SFP, fiber, or media support detail is listed?
The warranty or support detail listed is Twisted Pair,Optical Fiber, giving buyers a clearer picture of expected coverage after purchase.
Does the product support PoE or wireless networking?
Connectivity support is listed in the product specifications, including the relevant wireless or port options when available.
