Network switch Cudy GS1005P — 5-port Gigabit Ethernet with 4 PoE ports, 60W total, metal housing, rack mountable

The Cudy 60W PoE switch provides centralized power and Gigabit data connectivity for small office and home network devices. It supports a total PoE power budget of 60W with up to 30W available on a single port, and complies with IEEE 802.3af/at standards. The metal, fanless enclosure offers quiet operation and improved heat dissipation for reliable 24/7 use.

Advantages

The switch delivers full Gigabit switching performance and non-blocking throughput, allowing simultaneous line-rate traffic on all ports. Auto-detection prevents damage to non-standard PoE devices and ensures compatibility with standard PoE equipment. Its plug-and-play design requires no configuration, and the robust metal case increases durability for various installation environments.

Key specifications

• PoE power budget: 60W total
• Maximum PoE per port: 30W
• PoE standard: IEEE 802.3af/at compliant
• Switching capacity: 10 Gbps
• Non-blocking throughput: up to 5 Gbps
• Ports: Gigabit Ethernet ports (auto-detect PoE devices)
• Design: Fanless, metal case
• PoE pin assignment: Mode A (1/2 +, 3/6 -)

How to use

Install the switch on a stable surface or mount it according to the available hardware. Connect your IP cameras, VoIP phones, or Wi‑Fi access points to the Gigabit PoE ports; the switch will auto-detect PoE-compatible devices and supply power up to the available budget. Connect an uplink to your router or core switch for network access. No configuration is required for standard operation.

Recommendations

Distribute PoE power according to device requirements so the total does not exceed 60W. For devices needing up to 30W, ensure only one such device is powered simultaneously or verify remaining budget. Use quality Ethernet cables (Cat5e or higher) and place the switch in a ventilated location to maintain optimal temperature.
