The Intellinet Network Solutions 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Ultra PoE Switch with 4 Uplink Ports and LCD Screen passes both data and electrical power to a number of PoE-compatible devices via standard network cables. Equipped with eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, this switch can power wireless LAN access points and bridges, VoIP phones, IP video cameras and more while delivering network speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps. Power over Ethernet 802.3bt This high-powered switch supports the IEEE 802.3bt protocol and can inject up to 80 watts of power per port. IEEE802.3af/at/bt compliant devices attached to the switch require no additional power, thus eliminating the time and expense of electrical rewiring and minimizing the unsightly clutter caused by power supplies and adapters in awkward places such as ceilings and walls. Any mix of PoE and non-PoE devices is supported, and thanks to its short-circuit, overload and high-voltage protection function, your equipment is well-protected. For devices that are not 802.3bt/at/af compliant (e.g., legacy wireless access points or network cameras), we suggest the use of an Intellinet Network Solutions PoE/PoE+ Splitter. Innovative LCD Status Display The Intellinet Network Solutions 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Ultra PoE Switch with 4 Uplink Ports and LCD Screen is equipped with an LCD status screen on the front that provides real-time power information. This includes how much power each connected PoE device consumes, the combined used-power total of all connected devices and the total power available. Additionally, the LCD screen informs users of potential warnings for overload, high temperature, short-circuit protection and others. This feature always keeps you informed about the status of your PoE switch with a glance at the screen.
