Product Features
Technical Overview
The TI-PE50 delivers Layer 2 Fast Ethernet switching with a 1Gbps backplane capacity, ensuring efficient data handling for industrial automation, surveillance, and IoT networks. It supports twisted-pair cabling and auto-negotiation on all ports, simplifying integration with existing 10/100Mbps infrastructure. The switch's four PoE+ ports comply with IEEE 802.3at standards, supplying up to 30W per port to power devices over Ethernet, reducing cabling complexity and enabling centralized power management.
Redundant 48-57VDC power inputs with overload protection guard against power surges and supply failures, a critical feature for mission-critical applications. The switch includes DIN-rail and wall-mount brackets in the box, though the external power supply (model TI-S15052) is sold separately to accommodate varied regional power requirements or centralized power distribution setups.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Modular, Port/Expansion Slot Details, 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.
Key Product Advantages

Deployment / Use Cases
This switch is ideal for industrial automation, smart city infrastructure, and outdoor networking where environmental hardening and PoE capability are paramount. It serves as a reliable network node in manufacturing plants, rail systems, or oil and gas facilities, powering and connecting devices like PLCs, sensors, and cameras without requiring separate power runs.
In surveillance deployments, the TI-PE50 can power multiple IP cameras over long cable runs while withstanding temperature fluctuations in attics, parking garages, or perimeter fencing. Transportation networks benefit from its vibration-resistant design and wide temperature operation in buses, trains, or roadside cabinets. For renewable energy sites such as solar or wind farms, the switch provides networked control and monitoring in remote, exposed locations with minimal maintenance overhead.
Physical Profile
Designed for space-constrained industrial environments, the switch measures 5" wide x 10" deep x 3" high (127 x 254 x 76.2 mm) with a weight of 1.38 lb (623.69 g). Its compact footprint allows installation on standard DIN rails in electrical enclosures or direct wall mounting using included brackets. The low-profile aluminum chassis dissipates heat efficiently without fans, supporting silent operation in noise-sensitive areas like offices or healthcare facilities adjacent to industrial zones.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the total PoE power budget of the TI-PE50 switch?
The TI-PE50 provides up to 90W of total PoE power budget across its four PoE+ ports. This allows the switch to support multiple powered devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones simultaneously, with each PoE+ port capable of delivering up to 30W per the IEEE 802.3at standard. The budget is managed internally to optimize power distribution based on connected device requirements.
Can this switch be mounted in an industrial control cabinet?
Yes, the TI-PE50 includes DIN-rail mounting brackets, making it ideal for installation in standard industrial control cabinets or electrical enclosures. It also supports wall mounting for flexibility in locations where DIN rails are not available. The compact dimensions (5" x 10" x 3") ensure it fits in tight spaces common in manufacturing or utility settings.
What temperature range does this industrial switch support?
The switch operates reliably across an extreme temperature range of -40°C to 75°C (-40°F to 167°F). This wide tolerance makes it suitable for unheated warehouses, outdoor enclosures, vehicular applications, or any environment subject to harsh climatic conditions where typical commercial switches would fail or require costly heating/cooling systems.
Does the TI-PE50 include a power supply?
No, the external power supply is sold separately under model number TI-S15052. This design allows users to select a power supply that matches regional voltage requirements or integrate with centralized DC power systems common in industrial installations. The switch requires 48-57VDC input via its dual power connectors for operation.
What is the switching capacity and layer support?
The TI-PE50 offers 1Gbps of switching capacity, providing ample bandwidth for Fast Ethernet traffic in industrial networks. It operates at Layer 2, supporting basic switching functions like MAC address learning and forwarding, which is sufficient for most industrial automation, surveillance, and IoT applications without the complexity of managed Layer 3 features.
Is this switch compliant with government procurement standards?
Yes, the TI-PE50 is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, meeting U.S. government requirements for procurement. It is manufactured in Taiwan and adheres to relevant standards for use in federal, state, and municipal projects, backed by a lifetime warranty for long-term reliability and cost-effectiveness in public-sector deployments.
