Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is ideal for extending wired network connectivity in scenarios where port count requirements are minimal but PoE capability is essential. Its compact, mountable form factor makes it suitable for installations where space is at a premium or where a discreet appearance is desired.
Common applications include adding a single PoE device in a conference room, powering an IP camera at a remote location, connecting a VoIP phone in a small office, or providing a network drop for a wireless access point in a retail environment. The PoE-powered design is particularly valuable in temporary setups or locations without convenient power outlets.
Small Office / Retail Expansion
Add a network connection for a PoE device like a VoIP phone or security camera without running new power lines, keeping installation quick and cost-effective.
Residential Network Extension
Extend wired connectivity to a home office or media center with a compact switch that can be mounted discreetly behind furniture or on a wall.
Physical Profile
The switch features a durable, compact enclosure measuring 1" in height, 3.50" in width, and 3.50" in depth, with a lightweight design of approximately 4 ounces. The wall and shelf mounting capabilities allow for secure installation in various orientations, helping to organize cables and minimize clutter. The small size and mounting options make it easy to integrate into existing network infrastructure without occupying valuable desk or rack space.

FAQ
How many devices can this switch power with PoE?
The NetWay NETWAY2ES has a total PoE budget of 60 watts, which can be allocated across its two PoE+ ports. This allows it to power multiple PoE devices simultaneously, such as two IP cameras or a combination of a VoIP phone and a wireless access point, depending on their individual power requirements. The switch supports IEEE 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt standards for broad compatibility.
What is the data speed of the Ethernet ports?
This switch features Fast Ethernet ports, which operate at 10/100 Mbps speeds. This provides sufficient bandwidth for typical small network applications like internet access, file sharing, VoIP calls, and streaming standard-definition video. The ports use twisted pair cabling (CAT5e or higher recommended) with a maximum reach of 100 meters per connection.
Does this switch require a separate power adapter?
No, the NETWAY2ES is PoE-powered, meaning it receives both data and power from an upstream PoE source such as a PoE injector or another PoE switch. This eliminates the need for a separate power outlet at the switch location, simplifying installation in areas where electrical access is limited or inconvenient.
What mounting options are available for this switch?
The switch supports both wall mounting and shelf mounting. Its compact dimensions of 1" height, 3.50" width, and 3.50" depth make it easy to install in tight spaces. Wall mounting allows for secure placement on vertical surfaces, while shelf mounting provides flexibility for desktop or rack shelf installations, helping to keep cables organized.
What Layer 2 features does this switch include?
As a Layer 2 switch, the NETWAY2ES includes features like IGMP snooping for efficient multicast traffic handling, port mirroring for network monitoring and troubleshooting, and spanning tree protocol to prevent network loops. These features provide basic management and optimization capabilities suitable for small network environments.
What is the warranty coverage for this switch?
The NetWay NETWAY2ES comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product, providing long-term assurance of reliability and support. The switch is manufactured in the United States, adhering to quality standards.
