User Manual
FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE?
The switch has a total PoE budget of 195W, which can be distributed across its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports. The exact number of powered devices depends on their individual power requirements; for example, it could support around 12-16 typical PoE+ devices like VoIP phones or wireless access points, each drawing up to 15-30W, while leaving headroom for additional connections.
What are the SFP+ uplink ports used for?
The four SFP+ ports provide 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks, allowing you to connect the switch to core switches, servers, or network storage at higher speeds than the standard Gigabit ports. You can use SFP+ transceivers for fiber optic or direct-attach copper cables, enabling longer-distance connections or high-bandwidth aggregation without bottlenecks.
Is this switch manageable, and what features does it support?
Yes, this is a smart managed Layer 2 switch. It supports features like VLANs (IEEE 802.1Q), quality of service (IEEE 802.1p), port-based access control (IEEE 802.1x), and Energy Efficient Ethernet.
