Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports

Upgrade your network with a reliable, scalable solution that delivers both data and power to a growing portfolio of connected devices. The Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports is engineered for offices, schools, retail spaces, and surveillance setups where dependable performance and simplified power management are essential. This high-density switch consolidates 24 gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE+ support and two flexible SFP uplink ports, enabling you to build a resilient network backbone without clutter from separate power adapters or a separate PoE injector. Whether you're deploying IP cameras for security, VoIP phones for communications, or wireless access points to extend coverage, this switch provides the necessary bandwidth, power delivery, and plug-and-play simplicity to keep your network running smoothly. The contemporary metal enclosure supports professional rack installation and is designed for 24/7 operation in demanding environments, with robust cooling and enterprise-grade reliability. By combining data and power over a single Ethernet cable to compatible devices, it reduces wiring complexity while centralizing device management at the switch level. This model is an ideal fit for small to medium businesses, educational institutions, and distributed retail networks that require scalable networking with centralized power delivery.

• 24 Port PoE+ capability: Power and data on every port to support IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled devices, enabling cleaner deployments and reduced clutter on walls and ceilings.
• 2 SFP uplink ports: Flexible fiber or copper uplinks for high-speed aggregation and scalable network design, ideal for connecting to a core switch or data center backbone while preserving PoE on access ports.
• IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ on each port: Delivers robust power to compatible devices, with per-port power delivery aligned to PoE+ standards, allowing deployment of multiple devices from a single switch without separate power adapters.
• Unmanaged plug-and-play operation with smart port signaling: Auto-negotiation on all ports, straightforward setup, and reliable performance with basic quality-of-service features to prioritize critical traffic when needed.
• Rugged, rack-mountable design: 1U high, metal chassis built for continuous operation in office closets, data rooms, or retail environments, providing durable performance and easy integration into existing racks.

How to install Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports

• Plan placement: Choose a clean, well-ventilated location with stable temperature and easy access to power outlets and network cables.
• Rack mounting: If you are mounting in a rack, use the included brackets and screws to secure the switch in a 19-inch rack. Ensure adequate space for air circulation around the enclosure.
• Uplink setup: Install appropriate SFP transceivers in the two SFP ports if you plan to use fiber or copper uplinks. Connect the uplink cables to your core network or uplink devices, ensuring proper labeling for management simplicity.
• Device connections: Plug PoE-enabled devices (cameras, phones, APs) into any of the 24 RJ-45 PoE+ ports. Use good-quality Cat5e/6 cables to ensure reliable data and power delivery.
• Power and testing: Connect the switch to a reliable power source and power it on. Check LED indicators for link status and PoE activity on each port to verify proper operation and power delivery.
• Network verification: If you’re integrating with a larger network, connect the remaining core or distribution switches, verify connectivity, and perform basic throughput checks. For basic deployments, the plug-and-play nature of the switch should immediately provide network connectivity and PoE power to connected devices.

Frequently asked questions

• What devices can be powered by PoE+ on this switch? The switch can power PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points that require PoE+ power through compatible Ethernet cabling.
• Do I need a separate power supply or injector? No separate injector is required when using the built-in PoE+ ports; the switch provides both data and power to connected devices. Ensure your total PoE budget is within the switch’s capabilities and plan device placement accordingly.
• Can I manage the switch remotely? This model is designed as an unmanaged switch for plug-and-play deployment. For advanced management features, you may opt for a managed PoE switch or integrate with a network management system if your environment requires detailed monitoring and configuration.
• Are the SFP ports only for uplinks? The two SFP ports provide flexible uplink options, enabling fiber or copper module options to connect to the core network, data center, or remote sites while leaving PoE ports dedicated to powered devices.
• Is this switch suitable for surveillance or retail deployments? Yes. The combination of 24 PoE+ ports and two SFP uplinks makes it ideal for surveillance systems, IP cameras, and retail networks that require centralized power delivery and reliable data throughput in a compact, rack-mountable form factor.
