Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports
Discover a robust, unmanaged solution built to power and connect a broad range of PoE devices across small to mid-size networks. The Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports combines 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports with two flexible SFP uplinks, delivering both data and electrical power over standard Cat5e or Cat6 cables. This makes it an ideal foundation for IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE-enabled devices in offices, retail environments, and digital signage installations. With plug-and-play simplicity, you can expand your network quickly without complex configuration, while the PoE+ capability on each RJ45 port reduces the need for separate power adapters and wall outlets. The inclusion of SFP ports adds scalable uplink options to connect to your core network, ensuring high-speed backhaul as your deployment grows. Built for reliability, this switch is designed to handle daily network demands, delivering steady performance and simplified management for busy business environments.
- Power and data on a single Ethernet cable: 24 PoE+ RJ45 ports pair with two SFP uplinks, enabling seamless deployment of powered devices across your network.
- High-Power PoE+: Power demanding devices such as IP cameras, high-end VoIP phones, and next-generation wireless access points without extra power bricks or outlets.
- Unmanaged, plug-and-play operation: No complicated setup or management interface required; ready to install right out of the box for fast network expansion.
- Flexible uplinks with 2 SFP ports: Connect to fiber or copper trunks for scalable bandwidth and resilient connectivity to your core network.

How to install Intellinet 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch with 2 SFP Ports
Installing this switch is straightforward and can be completed in minutes. Follow these steps to deploy quickly and reliably:
- Choose a stable mounting location: Place the switch on a desk, in a cabinet, or mount in a equipment rack as appropriate for your space and cable management needs.
- Position and prepare cabling: Route Cat5e or Cat6 cables from PoE devices (cameras, phones, APs) to the 24 PoE+ RJ45 ports. Keep cable runs tidy to prevent tangling and ensure adequate ventilation.
- Connect uplinks: Use appropriate SFP modules or copper uplink cables to connect the two SFP ports to your core network or to a aggregation switch. This provides high-speed backhaul and future expandability.
- Power up: Plug the switch into a suitable power outlet. Because it is an unmanaged PoE+ switch, it powers connected PoE devices directly through the RJ45 ports as soon as power is supplied.
- Connect devices: Attach IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, and other PoE devices to the RJ45 ports. Each port will automatically negotiate the correct speed, enabling plug-and-play operation without additional configuration.
- Test and verify: After powering on, verify that each PoE device is receiving power and establishing network connectivity. Check the LED indicators on the switch and devices to confirm link status and PoE activity.
Frequently asked questions
- What does PoE+ mean for this switch? The PoE+ on the RJ45 ports supports higher power delivery over Ethernet, enabling you to power more capable devices such as advanced IP cameras, IP phones, and wireless access points without separate power adapters.
- Do I need to manage or configure the switch? No. This is an unmanaged switch, designed for quick deployment with zero configuration. It provides reliable plug-and-play networking for growing environments where advanced features are not required.
- Can I use the SFP ports for uplinks to fiber? Yes. The two SFP ports offer flexible uplink options, including fiber or copper, to connect to your core network or other switches, allowing scalable bandwidth and extended reach.
- Is this switch compatible with standard Ethernet cables? Absolutely. It works with Cat5e or Cat6 cables, which are widely available and suitable for most office and retail environments, ensuring easy integration with existing cabling infrastructure.
- What devices are best suited for this switch? Any PoE-enabled devices that require reliable, integrated power and data over Ethernet work well here—IP cameras for security, VoIP phones for communications, wireless access points for coverage, and other networked devices requiring PoE power.
