Intellinet 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch, 8 x PoE ports, IEEE 802.3at/af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE+/PoE), Endspan, Desktop, Box

The Intellinet 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Switch (model 560641) delivers data and power over standard Cat5e/Cat6 cables to PoE-compatible devices. With eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports and IEEE 802.3at/af support, the switch provides network speeds up to 1000 Mbps and a total PoE budget of 140 watts, enabling simplified installation and reduced cabling for devices such as access points, IP phones and network cameras.

Advantages

This PoE switch supports IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) and IEEE 802.3af, supplying up to 30 W per port with an overall budget of 140 W. It combines power and data on a single cable to lower installation time and avoid additional power supplies. The device includes protection against short circuits, overload and high voltage, and supports mixed deployments of PoE and non-PoE equipment. With a switching capacity of 16 Gbit/s and an 8000-entry MAC address table, the switch ensures efficient frame forwarding for small-to-medium networks.

Suitable for

• Powering wireless LAN access points and bridges
• Supplying VoIP phones
• Connecting IP video cameras
• Small office and desktop network installations

How to use

Place the switch on a stable desktop surface and connect its power cord to a suitable mains outlet. Use Cat5e or Cat6 cables to connect PoE-capable devices to the switch’s RJ-45 ports; compatible devices will receive both power and data automatically when connected. Non-PoE devices can be connected to any port for data-only operation. For legacy devices that do not support 802.3af/at but require power via Ethernet, use an appropriate PoE splitter.

Recommendations

To ensure reliable operation, plan the total PoE power consumption of connected devices so it does not exceed the 140 W budget. Distribute high-power devices across ports and verify device compatibility with IEEE 802.3at/af. Maintain ventilation around the switch and follow local electrical codes for installation.
