Product Features
Technical Overview
The TI-G50 operates as a Layer 2 unmanaged switch with five Gigabit Ethernet ports, each supporting 1000Base-T over twisted pair cabling. It provides a non-blocking switching capacity of 10 Gbps, enabling full-duplex throughput across all ports without congestion. The switch is designed for plug-and-play deployment, requiring no configuration for basic network segmentation and connectivity.
Power is supplied via an external power adapter (sold separately, model TI-M6024), with dual DC inputs that allow for redundant power setups to prevent downtime. The switch's hardened construction includes overload current protection and a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for industrial settings with fluctuating environmental conditions.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

Deployment / Use Cases
The TI-G50 is engineered for industrial and commercial environments that require reliable Ethernet connectivity in challenging conditions. Its unmanaged nature simplifies deployment, making it ideal for setups where IT expertise is limited or where basic network expansion is needed.
Common use cases include connecting PLCs, sensors, and cameras in manufacturing plants, providing network access in outdoor kiosks or signage, and segmenting networks in transportation hubs or utility substations. The switch's rugged profile also suits deployment in warehouses, agricultural facilities, or remote monitoring stations where temperature fluctuations and dust are concerns.
Industrial Automation
Connect programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human-machine interfaces (HMIs), and industrial IoT devices on a reliable Gigabit backbone within control panels or machinery enclosures.
Outdoor and Harsh Environments
Deploy in outdoor kiosks, traffic control systems, or weather-exposed locations where the IP30 rating and wide temperature range ensure continuous operation despite environmental stressors.
Physical Profile
The TI-G50 has a compact footprint measuring 3" (76.20 mm) in height, 5" (127 mm) in width, and 10" (254 mm) in depth, with an approximate weight of 1.49 lb (673.58 g). Its design prioritizes space efficiency for DIN-rail or wall mounting in crowded industrial cabinets or enclosures. The metal casing provides durability without excessive bulk, and the lack of moving parts contributes to a low-profile, maintenance-free installation.

User Manual
FAQ
How many ports does the TRENDnet TI-G50 switch have?
The TRENDnet TI-G50 features five Gigabit Ethernet ports, all supporting 1000Base-T over twisted pair cabling. This port count is suitable for connecting multiple devices like industrial sensors, cameras, or PLCs in a small network segment without requiring an uplink port for expansion.
Is the TI-G50 a managed or unmanaged switch?
The TI-G50 is an unmanaged Layer 2 switch, meaning it operates as a plug-and-play device with no configuration required for basic network connectivity. It automatically forwards data between connected devices, making it ideal for simple deployments where advanced features like VLANs or QoS are not needed.
What is the switching capacity of this switch?
This switch offers a switching capacity of 10 Gbps, providing non-blocking throughput across all five Gigabit Ethernet ports. This capacity ensures efficient data transfer for industrial applications, supporting full-duplex communication without congestion in typical use cases.
Can the TI-G50 operate in extreme temperatures?
Yes, the TI-G50 is designed for extreme environments with an operating temperature range of -40° to 167°F (-40° to 75°C). This wide range allows deployment in unheated warehouses, outdoor installations, or industrial settings where temperatures fluctuate significantly, ensuring reliable performance year-round.
Does this switch support redundant power?
Yes, the TI-G50 supports redundant power through its dual DC power inputs. This feature allows connection to two separate power supplies, providing backup in case one fails. It includes overload current protection to safeguard connected devices, though the external power adapter (model TI-M6024) is sold separately.
What mounting options are included with the switch?
The switch includes both DIN-rail and wall-mount brackets, offering flexible installation in industrial control cabinets, on walls, or in enclosures. Its compact dimensions of 3" H x 5" W x 10" D make it easy to fit into tight spaces, and the fanless design eliminates noise concerns in sensitive environments.
