User Manual
FAQ
How many PoE+ ports does the Yealink RCH40 switch have?
The Yealink RCH40 has 4 PoE+ ports out of its total 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports. These ports support IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at standards, allowing them to deliver power to compatible devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras while also providing data connectivity.
What is the PoE budget of this switch?
The RCH40 has a total PoE budget of 90 watts. This budget is shared across the 4 PoE+ ports, meaning you can power multiple PoE devices simultaneously as long as their combined power consumption does not exceed 90 watts. The switch supports both PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) standards.
Does this switch support Layer 2 management features?
Yes, the Yealink RCH40 is a Layer 2 managed switch. It includes advanced switching features such as IGMP snooping for efficient multicast traffic handling, port mirroring for network monitoring and diagnostics, and spanning tree protocol to prevent network loops. These features provide greater control and stability for your network compared to unmanaged switches.
Can I expand my network using the uplink port?
Yes, the RCH40 includes one dedicated uplink port among its 5 total ports. This uplink port allows you to cascade the switch to other network devices, such as additional switches or a router, to expand your local area network. This makes it easy to add more devices or extend network coverage without replacing the existing infrastructure.
What are the physical dimensions of this switch?
The Yealink RCH40 measures 3.94 inches in width, 3.94 inches in depth, and 0.91 inches in height (100 mm x 100 mm x 23 mm). Its compact desktop form factor makes it suitable for placement on desks, shelves, or other space-constrained areas, and it does not require rack mounting.
What type of cabling does this switch support?
The RCH40 supports twisted pair cabling, which is the standard for Ethernet networks. It is compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T connections, allowing for data transfers up to 125 MB/s over distances up to 100 meters. This makes it cost-effective to deploy using common Cat5e, Cat6, or higher-grade cables.
