Edimax Pro TGS-5428PLX 28-Port L2+ Managed Multi-Gigabit PoE++ Switch with 24x 2.5GBase-T and 4x 10G SFP+ Uplink

Modern surveillance and high-density networks demand more than just connectivity—they require intelligent power distribution, multi-gigabit throughput, and robust management. The Edimax Pro TGS-5428PLX answers that call with a 28-port L2+ managed switch engineered for IP cameras, Wi-Fi 6 access points, and bandwidth-hungry endpoints. Its 24 2.5GBASE-T ports deliver up to 2.5 Gbps per port over existing Cat5e cabling, while four 10G SFP+ uplinks eliminate bottlenecks to the core. With a massive 740 W PoE++ budget, it powers a full array of PTZ cameras, LED lighting, or digital signage—no separate injectors needed.

Who is it for

System integrators, IT administrators, and security professionals deploying medium-to-large surveillance or converged networks. It suits businesses needing high-power PoE devices, multi-gigabit edge connectivity, and centralized management without overspending on chassis switches.
