Description
Tycon Power POE 5 Port Switch
The Tycon Power SW5 Series is a compact, fully automatic Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch designed to simplify network deployments that require both data and power over Ethernet. This 5-port PoE switch delivers reliable, high-speed connectivity with up to 2A of PoE power per port, making it an ideal choice for IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other PoE-enabled devices. Part of a broader SW5 family, this model (TP-SW5G-D) is IEEE 802.3af/at compliant and runs on a 48V DC power supply, delivering a robust and scalable solution for small to medium-sized installations. Whether you’re outfitting a small office, retail space, classroom, or security system, the Tycon Power POE 5 Port Switch offers plug-and-play simplicity, dependable performance, and flexible power delivery that keeps devices powered and connected without the need for extra power bricks at each endpoint.
Built for modern networks, the SW5G-D switch provides five PoE-enabled Ethernet ports with automatic negotiation and full-duplex, high-speed performance. The design emphasizes ease of use and reliability, affording administrators and end users a straightforward upgrade path to PoE without sacrificing network speed. With data rates up to 1 Gbps per port and auto-negotiation for each link, this switch ensures smooth operation for latency-sensitive devices while maintaining energy efficiency and a compact footprint suitable for desktop or wall-mmount installations. The 48V DC input simplifies integration with centralized power systems, UPS, or dedicated PoE power arrangements, allowing organizations to optimize their power budgets and cable management while eliminating clutter from separate power supplies for each PoE device.
